Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz is proving that he’s an incredibly corrupt political figure as a brand new expose has come out and revealed a massive bombshell that should sink the Democratic presidential ticket he’s a part of with Vice President Kamala Harris at the top of the bill. Walz is now being heavily scrutinized after this report uncovered that he had appointed a member of a political faction with connections to the Chinese Communist Party to a prominent state board. Sure seems to be a lot of individuals from the CCP infiltrating various levels of government in our country. Makes you wonder how many more there might be.
The Daily Caller News Foundation reported that the Minnesota Democrat appointed an individual by the name of Chang Wang, an attorney based in his state, to be a member of the Council on Asian Pacific Minnesotans in May 2020. This council is in charge of advising the governor, along with other state agencies, and plays a critical role in pushing for the economic, political, and social equality of Asian Pacific Minnesota residents.
However, Wang’s affiliation with the China Association for Promoting Democracy (CAPD) has raised significant concerns, as the organization is closely linked to the CCP. Wang, who currently serves as the interim chair of the Council on Asian Pacific Minnesotans, has an extensive resume that includes law degrees from the University of Minnesota, visiting professorships across several countries, and numerous academic publications. Despite these credentials, his ties to the CAPD, a CCP-affiliated political organization, have sparked fears over potential foreign influence within the state government. According to the DCNF, Wang has been linked to the CAPD for over a decade, a connection that appears to have flown under the radar until now. The CAPD, which is the third-largest political party in China, operates under the oversight of the CCP and has been known to promote its policies.
Wang’s role in promoting CCP-linked interests is particularly alarming given his influence on Minnesota’s policies regarding Asian-American affairs. The council that Wang heads provides recommendations on various topics that affect over 43,000 Chinese Minnesotans, potentially giving Wang significant leverage in shaping state policy.
The role Wang played within the organization has led to many asking questions as to whether he was properly vetted and if the state government, under the leadership of Walz, could be susceptible to the influence of foreign nations. The appointment took place during a time when there were growing concerns among Americans about China expanding influence in America’s politics and business.
Wang told the Daily Caller in an email about the connections he has with the CCP, saying, “My elderly parents are my only ties to China,” when asked if he was involved with CAPD.
“While his current profile on the University of Minnesota’s website omits any mention of his affiliation with CAPD, previous versions of the site show that he was listed as associated with the organization,” the report said. “The U.S. government has been increasingly concerned about China’s attempts to expand its influence through academic, political, and business channels. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) accused the FBI on Thursday of not releasing information he requested concerning Walz’s numerous visits to China.”
Comer has brought up concerns about Walz potentially being engaged with various affiliates of the CCP during his trips. In a letter he sent to FBI Director Christopher Wray, the head of the committee once again made calls for all documents and communications that are being held by the bureau related to any potential Chinese entities that Walz might have had contact with across the almost 30 trips to China to be handed over to them.
“The FBI’s silence regarding Mr. Walz’s documented relations with CCP affiliates is inexcusable,” letter concluded. “The Committee must understand the full extent of Mr. Walz’s ties to the CCP. In short, such ties appear myriad and substantial.”
