"The Manchurian Candidate," a 1959 novel by Richard Condon, posits the son of a prominent American political dynasty who is captured by a Soviet Union commando unit during the Korean War and brainwashed into becoming a Soviet sleeper agent, an assassin who is triggered into action by, of all things, a card game. The goal of the Soviet Union in this exercise? To have their sleeper agent kill a presidential candidate to install his running mate, who is secretly controlled by his wife, a secret KGB operator. //

DUFFY: Walz taught in China, he visited China 30 times, he honeymooned in China, and he promoted Chinese communism to his American students as a teacher. Is Tim Walz a national security risk?

@KristiNoem: Absolutely. I am 100% convinced he's a national security risk. Show more

When I was on a general staff, working for the Command Surgeon, U.S. Army, Europe (USAEUR), I had to have a Top Secret clearance. It was quite the process; the FBI talked to my parents, they talked to my in-laws, they talked to old friends; they even talked to my first wife, who later mentioned to me that she told them that while she and I had our differences, I was as solid an American patriot as one was likely to find. I give her full honesty points for that.

But had I had Tim Walz's China background, I doubt I would have received my clearance. //

.@KristiNoem on Tim Walz: He's a bully, and he pushes mandates down on his people. He's got ties to companies in China. You don't go to China 30 times to be a tourist. You go because you have an affiliation with their government. Show more

In summary: Tim Walz is a national security risk. Governor Noem points out that Tim Walz wants America to become more like China. China, I remind you, is entering into an economic crisis because of all their years of economic fakery. They are entering into a demographic collapse because of decades of the idiotic "one-child policy." China, I remind you, tightly controls every aspect of the lives of Chinese subjects; I will not call those poor people citizens, as they are not. One cannot own a home in China; land and apartments are leased from the Chinese Communist Party. China is on a dark road into an uncertain future, including very possibly a complete collapse.

"China Tim" Walz wants to take us down that same road.
