Bombshell Memos Show DHS and FBI Had HUGE Concerns About Tim Walz Last Year
2025-08-06
[PJ] You think Kamala Harris picking her 2024 running mate was merely a strategic political move? Think again. As recently surfaced internal memos from the Department of Homeland Security and the FBI reveal, the choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz sent more than a few alarm bells ringing inside U.S. counterintelligence circles.

Newly released Homeland Security group chat messages, obtained after a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit from Judicial Watch, show outright glee from agency insiders at Washington’s potential nightmare. "China is happy," one employee wrote on August 7, 2024, just a day after Harris announced Walz as her VP pick. The employee even linked a BBC News article detailing how China’s internet celebrated Walz’s validation. Another official immediately responded, pushing to bring in the FBI, the agency responsible for domestic counterintelligence, underlining the seriousness of the situation.

These explosive lines reveal that Walz’s ties to the Chinese Communist Party weren’t mere suspicions but real and longstanding worries for intelligence operatives tasked with watching China’s growing influence on American politics. The group chat belonged to a Homeland Security investigative team focused on "subnational engagement" by Chinese operatives with local U.S. officials, which means that they saw Walz less as a friend and more as a potential conduit to the corridors of power in D.C.

#1  Obviously, DHS and FBI were not 'read on' to Project Tampon, hence the concerns.
