House Oversight Committee gave the FBI a hard deadline to produce information related to Walz "longstanding connection" to China and its government.
Comer said that recent reporting revealed that Minnesota Gov. Walz has "concerning ties to the People's Republic of China," and that this makes him susceptible to being influenced to the "the benefit of the communist regime and the detriment of Americans."
FBI has less than a week to meet James Comer's deadline related to Tim Walz alleged China 'connections' (msn.com) (https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/fbi-has-less-than-a-week-to-meet-james-comer-s-deadline-related-to-tim-walz-alleged-china-connections/ar-AA1pmkKH?ocid=msedgntp&pc=HCTS&cvid=1db25eafdcde4f9db3ef78406aa74d25&ei=28)
Walz lived in China and returned dozens of times over the course of his life as a teacher and politician.
Walz and his wife ran a company that brought US students to China.
Unless I hear something different I'm inclined to give him a pass. In Congress he was critical of Beijing and supportive of Taiwan. He also compares to Chinese visitors the Tiananmen Square massacre to the massacre at Wounded Knee.
He was married on the Tiananmen Square massacre anniversary as a tribute to the victims .

Walz and wife Gwenn honeymooned in China and got married on the fifth anniversary of the end of the Tiananmen protests,
Walz has visited China, by his memory, roughly 30 times.
“I’ve lived in China, and as I’ve said, I’ve been there about 30 times … I don’t fall into the category that China necessarily needs to be an adversarial relationship. I totally disagree,”
He taught in China according to his 2006 campaign literature.
“With his teaching degree complete, Harvard University offered Walz an opportunity to gain a new perspective on global education by teaching in the People's Republic of China. Working in China during 1989-1990, Walz was a member of one of the first government sanctioned groups of American educators to teach in Chinese high schools.”

1993, Walz organized a trip to the PRC for his Alliance High School students; the costs for the trip were paid in part by the Chinese government.
He and his wife later started a for profit company to help students travel to China. The company was shut down by the State of Nebraska for failure to pay taxes. Still Walz continued to organize trips.
2007, Mr. Walz served not only as a member of Congress but also as a fellow at Macau Polytechnic University. According to it’s website ;Macau Polytechnic University exists ‘in alignment with China’s Belt and Road Initiative,’

Walz worked to secure millions for the Hormel Institute in Austin, Minnesota, a lab that worked on a variety of projects with China’s Wuhan Institute of Virology.
Governor Tim Walz on X: "For 80+ years, the Hormel Institute has helped pave the way for Minnesota to lead in biomedical innovation. It was great to stop by their facilities yesterday in Austin to see that work in action. https://t.co/6ahkqz5nIq" / X (https://x.com/GovTimWalz/status/1783849764208947701)
The Wuhan Institute of Virology operates under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which reports directly to the Chinese Communist Party’s State Council. It also gave us covid and then covered up the source of the virus.
Hormel also works with the Beijing Genomics Institute, which the Department of Defenses has designated a “Chinese military company"
