You Say You Want a Revolution. Or Civil War. Or Something.

Governor Walz, after a year and change of referring to Republicans as "Nazis" and "Fascists"...

...and saying Minnesota is "at war" with the Federal government (but keeping his fingers crossed just in case)...

...is squirting crocodile tears about the Republic whose fractures he's accelerated?

Now, Walz is, as Dubya used to say, "all moo and no cow" - talking trash about J.D. Vance and the debate where Vance mopped the floor with him a year and a half ago is just the latest example:

But I come here today neither to praise nor bury Governor Walz, but to expand on his secessionary, insurrectionist rhetoric.  

He may fancy himself a Jefferson Davis of the new revolution against the Federal government - and that may be a comical bit of self-image. 

But there are plenty of wamnabe Jeb Stuarts waiting in the wings.  

Giancarlo Epsosito - famous for playin a psychopathic cartel boss in Breaking Bad - https://www.breitbart.com/entertainment/2026/01/29/nolte-sociopath-giancarlo-esposito-willing-to-see-50-million-other-people-die-for-his-revolution/:

Esposito talks a bigger game than Walz - according to John Nolte at Breitbart:

Read his own words.

  • This is time for a revolution
  • If the whole world showed up … in Washington
  • they’d kill 500 or 50 million
  • the rest of us would survive with a new [world].

The rest of us.

No you.

Us

Us would survive. 

You can bet he’d survive.

There is no one in the history of this planet who enjoys more privilege than a successful American artist like Giancarlo Esposito. His life is one of wealth, freedom, fame, awards, self-expression, and the affection of millions.

And what does he want in return?

More.

Tim Walz things he can "beat the...", er, stuffing out of JD Vance.  Esposito apparently thinks he can do the same with half the population.  

Have we mentioned he made the remarks while working to organize workers in a Chinese sweatshop?

No, we didn't.  It would have been a lie.   He was at Sundance Film Festival, which is sort of like "Burning Man" for celebrities:

Esposito also called out what he described as systemic suppression from powerful elites. He directly blamed “some very rich old white men” for stirring hatred and fueling civil division.

“Creating a feeling of civil war in the streets, preparing the haters to hate, teaching them how to shoot,” he said. The charged words caused shockwaves, especially among conservative critics...

At Sundance, Esposito wasn’t alone in his stance. Several attendees wore “ICE Out” pins on the red carpet, signaling support for immigrant rights and resistance.

The festival became a backdrop for activism, blending art and protest in real-time. As political tensions rise, Hollywood’s loudest voices are only getting louder.

For those of you who thought Michael Moore had become a limo-lefty cliche on feet (in Moore's case, probably a Rascal scooter by now), you can update your references.  

Fun as it is to dunk on vacuous celebrities talking at other vacuous celebrities, there's a serious side to all this.  Jim Geraghty:

This is what leftist "democracy" looks like.
