Spurred by revelations into his past support and patronage of China, the House Oversight committee will be looking into connections between the Chinese Communist Party and Democratic vice presidential nominee, Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota.

On its podcast, The Drill Down with Peter Schweizer, the Government Accountability Institute shared research into Walz’s past activism and current support for China. GAI president Peter Schweizer detailed Walz’s numerous connections to China, including a student exchange program funded by the CCP, Chinese secret police stations operating in the Twin Cities, and much more. Breitbart News shared the announcement on its website.

Chairman James Comer (R-KY) launched the investigation “following reports detailing the Governor’s longstanding connections to Chinese Communist Party entities and officials,” according to the House Oversight Committee.

“Mr. Walz has visited China 30 times, served as a fellow at a Chinese institution that maintains a devotion to the CCP, and spoke alongside the President of a Chinese organization the State Department exposed as a CCP effort to influence and co-opt local leaders,” the House Oversight Committee said in a statement, revealing that “FBI briefers recently informed the Committee that the Bureau’s Foreign Influence Task Force investigates CCP activity that is similar to China’s engagement with Governor Walz.”

“In a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray, Chairman Comer is now requesting information, documents, and communications related to the CCP-connected entities and officials Governor Walz has engaged and partnered with,” the committee added:

“Americans deserve to fully understand how deep Governor Walz’s relationship with China goes,” Comer said in a statement.
