House Republicans, led by Rep. James Comer, have initiated an investigation into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who was recently selected as Vice President Kamala Harris's running mate. The inquiry focuses on Walz's extensive ties to Chinese Communist Party (CCP) entities, including his reported 30 trips to China and his role as a fellow at a Chinese institution. Comer has requested documents from FBI Director Christopher Wray regarding any communications or warnings related to Walz's interactions with these entities. Concerns have been raised about potential CCP influence on Walz's decision-making as governor and if he ascends to the vice presidency. Walz's campaign has refuted allegations, asserting that he has consistently stood against the CCP and prioritized American interests. The investigation highlights the scrutiny facing the Democratic ticket as the 2024 election approaches.
