From the New York Post: The House Oversight Committee subpoenaed the Department of Homeland Security on Monday following whistleblower allegations about an internal employee group chat discussing “serious concerns” about Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s China ties — some of which have been documented in classified files.
Oversight panel Chairman James Comer revealed the internal debate on the “longstanding connection” between Walz and Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials in a Monday letter to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, according to a copy obtained by The Post.
“Specifically, through whistleblower disclosures, the Committee has learned of a non-classified, Microsoft Teams group chat among DHS employees—titled ‘NST NFT Bi-Weekly Sync’—that contains information about Governor Walz that is relevant to the Committee’s investigation,” Comer (R-Ky.) wrote.
The group chat initials stand for “Nation State Threat — National Functional Team,” according to an Oversight spokesman.
In his letter to Mayorkas, Comer demanded all records on the internal group chat from July 1 to date, along with any Intelligence Information Reports or Regional Intelligence Notes between November 2023 and the present.
Sharing a copy of the letter on social media, the Oversight Committee announced:
