Recently surfaced details from the early 1990s reveal that Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz once held disturbingly positive views on China’s communist regime. While teaching high school students about global political systems, Walz described China’s communism as “wonderful” because, in his words, “everyone shares” and enjoys the benefits of free food and housing. This idealistic portrayal of a system that has historically oppressed millions was part of his lesson on China’s communist model in November 1991.
According to a report from the Washington Free Beacon, Walz’s comments were originally documented in a 1991 article by the Alliance Times-Herald, which covered his involvement in student exchange programs to China. At the time, Walz was teaching social studies at a high school in Nebraska. His words, however, were far from a simple teaching moment—they were reflections of his deep admiration for a regime notorious for its human rights abuses.
Walz’s controversial stance didn’t end there. He openly compared socialism to an act of “neighborliness,” while also frequently traveling to China. During these visits, he not only accepted gifts from local communists but also led student trips sponsored by the Chinese government. To top it off, Walz chose to marry his wife on the fifth anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre and spent their honeymoon in China—a decision that raises further questions about his ideological leanings.
Former Student Speaks Out: “Walz Is a True Believer in Communism”
Walz’s affinity for Chinese communism wasn’t lost on those around him. A former student, identified only as “Shad,” who accompanied Walz on a 1995 trip to China, has come forward with damning revelations. In an interview with Alpha News, Shad asserted that Walz is a “communist who adores China” and is “Maoist to the core.” According to Shad, Walz’s admiration for the regime was evident in his daily behavior and conversations.
Shad recounted how Walz frequently purchased multiple copies of The Little Red Book, a collection of quotations by Chairman Mao Zedong, the dictator responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of Chinese citizens. “It was like being in Germany and buying copies of Mein Kampf,” Shad said, highlighting the alarming nature of Walz’s actions.
Shad’s testimony goes beyond Walz’s personal interests. He linked Walz’s communist beliefs to his political agenda in the United States, pointing to policies that promote abortion, suppress free speech, and encourage snitching on those who defy government mandates—such as the authoritarian COVID-19 restrictions. Shad warned, “He’s a Maoist to the core and should not be underestimated. The snitch hotline in Minnesota is straight out of CCP.”
The Implications of Walz’s Communist Leanings
Walz’s consistent praise for a regime that has caused untold suffering raises significant concerns about his suitability for high office. His ideological leanings, coupled with his actions and policies, suggest a troubling alignment with authoritarian principles that are fundamentally at odds with American values. If his past is any indication, Walz’s potential influence in the U.S. government could steer the nation toward dangerous and repressive policies.
Given these revelations, it is crucial for the public to critically examine Walz’s record and consider the implications of his candidacy. His admiration for Chinese communism and his promotion of policies that mirror those of oppressive regimes cannot be ignored. As voters, we must ask ourselves whether such a person is fit to hold the reins of power in a country founded on the principles of liberty and freedom.
Our Take
Walz’s documented praise for Chinese communism, coupled with his disturbing alignment with authoritarian policies, should serve as a red flag for every American. His willingness to embrace a regime responsible for immense suffering and repression casts serious doubt on his commitment to the values that define our nation. If elected to high office, his influence could bring us closer to the very systems of control and oppression that countless Americans have fought against. It’s imperative that we stay vigilant and ensure that our leaders uphold the principles of freedom and democracy, not those of authoritarian regimes.
