During a recent Vice Presidential debate, Tim Walz admitted to lying about his presence in Hong Kong during the 1989 Tiananmen Square protests. Walz had previously claimed in a 2014 statement that he was in Hong Kong at the time of the massacre. When confronted with evidence contradicting his claim, including reports from Minnesota Public Radio, Walz acknowledged that he had 'misspoke' and described himself as a 'knucklehead.' He also struggled to address questions on federal regulations affecting housing supply, expressing confusion and attributing blame to local regulations and Congress.
