Tuesday night marked a significant moment in the 2024 election season as the “Harris-Walz” banner was unveiled for the first time in Pennsylvania. The event coincided with Vice President Kamala Harris’s announcement of her running mate: Minnesota Governor Tim Walz. The rally, which drew considerable attention, not only saw Walz’s name surge to the top of search engine queries across the United States, but also garnered significant interest in China. Walz’s extensive history with China is now under intense scrutiny.
