At a school in Southern China, the students played a game of friendly soccer with Chinese students on a dirt field — the Americans in their t-shirts and the Chinese in sports jerseys. They managed to communicate via hand gestures and kicking the ball.

Vice presidential candidate Gov. Tim Walz exaggerated claims about how many times he traveled to China, telling people he spent much more time there than in actuality.

In China, local internet users have speculated that Walz was an undercover CIA agent responsible for stirring up the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, according to The Times. The outlandish claim appears to be premised solely on the fact that Walz happened to be in China at the time.
