Shujun Wang, a 76-year-old Chinese-American, is now facing up to 25 years in prison after being found guilty of espionage, working on behalf of the Chinese government.

Tim Walz may have the manner of a kindly, Midwestern dad. But when it comes to protecting the country’s children from transgender medical interventions, Walz is not interested. In fact, he wants the opposite. Vice President Kamala Harris tapped the Minnesota governor as her running mate Tuesday, prompting scrutiny of his progressive record on everything from immigration to abortion and gender ideology. Walz signed a cluster of legislation in April 2023 that established Minnesota as a haven for children who want puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, or transgender surgeries.

Our work to ensure all Minnesotans – especially our trans neighbors – are safe, valued, and respected continues. — Governor Tim Walz (@GovTimWalz) February 16, 2023 One law Walz signed allows Minnesota to seize custody of a child whose parents refuse to provide “gender affirming care.” “A court of this state has temporary emergency jurisdiction if the child is present in this state and … the child has been unable to obtain gender-affirming health care,” the bill reads. The same law says Minnesota will refuse to help if another state is trying to remove a child from his or her parents because the parents are subjecting the child to hormone treatments or surgeries. Another bill banned “conversion therapy,” a vague term often used to dismiss talk therapy wherein mental health professionals help make children comfortable with their biological sex, rather than shunting them towards transgender surgeries and hormone treatments. “We’re also protecting young and vulnerable Minnesotans from the harmful and discredited practice of conversion therapy. We’re putting up a firewall to ensure Minnesotans have the freedom to make their own health care decisions,” Walz said in a statement at the time. The previous month, in March of 2023, Walz signed an executive order reaffirming legal transgender medical interventions for children ahead of the legislation. At the signing, Walz squeezed the hand of a 12-year-old boy wearing a dress who identified as a girl. A six-year-old boy, also in a dress, was in attendance with his parents, who are raising him as a girl. “For trans rights,” the squirming six-year-old said when asked by a reporter why his family was there. “Guess what? Love wins,” Walz said at the order signing. Walz’s lieutenant governor, Peggy Flanagan, wore a shirt with a picture of a knife and the words, “Protect Trans Kids” to the signing. In May of last year, Walz signed legislation requiring boys’ bathrooms in public schools to stock free tampons or pads beginning in January 2024. “The products must be available to all menstruating students in restrooms regularly used by students in grades 4 to 12 according to a plan developed by the school district,” the bill reads. The Minnesota Department of Education has encouraged schools since 2017 to “affirm” a child’s new gender identity, even when parents disagree. “A supportive school will create an affirming and accepting environment for every student, including transgender and gender nonconforming students and the family’s non-acceptance should not override the schools’ responsibility,” the education department’s toolkit on trans-identifying students reads. Walz has embraced left-wing gender ideology since at least 2017, when he tweeted in celebration of the country’s first trans-identifying legislator in the Virginia House, Danica Roem, a man who identifies as a woman. He has mentioned “trans youth” at least four times on social media over the last few years. “Here in Minnesota, we stand with our trans youth against hateful laws and damaging rhetoric,” Walz posted on X last year.

Billionaire Mark Cuban took some heat on Tuesday when he suggested that voters had already warmed up to Kamala Harris and they’d soon do the same with regard to her vice-presidential pick, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN). Cuban shared his thoughts in a post on X shortly after Harris — bumped to the top of the 2024 ticket when President Joe Biden abruptly dropped out of the race amid concerns about his mental fitness and physical health — tapped Walz to join her campaign. “On the @tim_walz choice, I think people who don’t like it are missing the lesson of the switch to Harris. She went from worst to first as people got to know her,” Cuban posted. “It’s not a reach to think the same thing will happen with Walz. People are tired of the ideologues and hate from both parties. They want to vote for normal people they can relate to. Walz can sit at the kitchen table and make you feel like you have know him forever. That’s an incredible skill these days.” On the @tim_walz choice, I think people who don’t like it are missing the lesson of the switch to Harris.

People are tired of the ideologues and hate… — Mark Cuban (@mcuban) August 6, 2024 Daily Wire co-founder Jeremy Boreing pointed out the fact that no one had, in fact, “gotten to know” Harris at all since she became the Democratic Party’s nominee by default — namely because in two weeks, she has not given one real interview or even answered one difficult question. “This is crap. Kamala went from worst to first, alright. But not when people ‘got to know her,'” he replied. “She hasn’t been asked a difficult question, hasn’t submitted to a challenging interview, has t told us what she thinks or believes on any issue … It’s precisely because people haven’t gotten to know her that she is ascendent. The combined power of almost every institution in public life has united to convince America she is wonderful without requiring her to reveal herself at all. If she does, it will not be a ‘normal’ person America sees at all.” WATCH BEN SHAPIRO’S ‘SCAMALA: KAMALA HARRIS UNMASKED’ ON DAILYWIRE+ This is crap. Kamala went from worst to first, alright.
