WATCH: Jesse Watters EXPOSES Tim Walz's Shocking Ties To Chinese Communists

An investigation into Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz's ties to China revealed that the vice presidential candidate relied on funds from the Communist Party to educate America's children while they traveled overseas, among other notable connections that raise questions about his ability to represent American interests in the White House.

Fox News host Jesse Watters reported on Wednesday that the midwestern Democrat has visited mainland China at least 30 times going back to his career as a suburban school teacher. His first visit in 1989, funded by Harvard University, coincided with the Tiananmen square protests and massacre, and upon his return Walz "spread Chinese propaganda," Watters told his viewers. He quoted Walz, who said about his first visit, "I was treated exceptionally well... They are such kind, generous, capable people. They just gave and gave and gave to me. Going there was one of the best things I've ever done." His marriage to Gwen Walz on April 15th, 1994 was exactly five years to the day of the Tiananmen square riots.

Later on, Walz, 60, founded a travel company that specialized in educational tours for American high school students visiting China and relied on funding from the Chinese government to underwrite the visits. While there, the new No. 2 to Vice President Kamala Harris was known by Chinese children as the "big-nosed one" and "foreign devil." He went on to learn some Mandarin as well, and to this day continues to maintain strong ties with Chinese-American organizations that have close ties to intelligence arms for the communist regime of Chinese President Xi Jinping. One, the Chinese Friendship Organization, welcomed him for a speech in 2019, one year after winning his first election to the governor's office.

"Did the Harris campaign know about this? How can a guy visit China 30 times and pal around with [Chinese communists] and have Chinese money change hands and you say to yourself 'I want that guy in the Situation Room with me,'" Watters joked. For good measure, he added this "wasn't the first time" that Democrats attempted to "install" a White House occupant with deep ties to China, an unsubtle dig at President Biden and his family's connection to lucrative business dealings with Chinese business interests.

Former President Donald Trump continues to formulate lines of attack against Gov. Walz, whose vice presidential nomination was announced earlier this week. Republicans have slammed him for presiding over a vicious series of riots in 2020 that left Minneapolis in tatters and fanned the flames of allegations that he resigned from the Army in order to run for Congress and avoid being deployed to Iraq. More recently, critics have leaned into his transgender accommodations in Minnesota schools, labeling him "Tampon Tim" after reports that he ordered the feminine hygiene products to be installed in all-male high school bathrooms.
