During a recent appearance on Sunday Morning Futures, Government Accountability Institute President and New York Times bestselling author Peter Schweizer laid out the love affair between vice presidential candidate Tim Walz and the CCP.
“We’ve seen on Chinese state media all of this adoring commentary from Chinese leaders and on TikTok about Tim Walz. So they’re clearly doing their own propaganda to try to get this guy into the White House as vice president. How do you expect that to play out should they actually win in terms of China policy?” host Maria Bartiromo asked Schweizer.
“Well, I think Tim Walz would become the liaison with the Chinese. And this is enormously troubling,” Schweizer said. ” It’s a little different than the Bidens were. The Bidens were getting paid. I think with Tim
Walz, he’s a fellow traveler. He likes the Chinese government. He’s praised them and said what wonderful things they do. In 2019, when he was governor of Minnesota, he was a headline speaker at a speech for a United Front group.”
Schweizer continued: And what’s unusual, Maria, is that there was not a single other government official at any other level that spoke at that event. He was the only one. He was legitimizing an entity that every
administration and including the Biden administration has said is part of an influence operation by
the CCP and linked to Chinese intelligence. And there he was giving the headline speech.”

From The Daily Caller:
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democratic vice presidential nominee, has a long history of attending events organized by members of a nonprofit with connections to a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) influence and intelligence agency, a Daily Caller News Foundation investigation found.
Since 2018, Walz has attended multiple events hosted by members of the Chinese American Association of Minnesota (CAAM) and related organizations, including one 2022 fundraiser for his gubernatorial campaign, according to a DCNF review of dozens of Chinese government announcements, Chinese-language news reports and social media posts.
Other media have detailed self-declared progressive Walz’s long-standing relationships with entities connected to Islamic extremism as well.
Since 2016, CAAM and another local nonprofit have been hosting the St. Paul branch of the “Overseas Chinese Service Center” (OCSC) program, which is a global network of institutions overseen by the Chinese government’s United Front Work Department (UFWD), the DCNF previously reported.
Among other things, the UFWD “collects intelligence, exerts control over overseas Chinese-language media outlets, seeks to influence Chinese diaspora groups, facilitates illicit technology transfer, and interferes in politics in other countries,” according to the House Select Committee on the CCP.
