Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz failed in his bid to become vice president—and now he wants to be president. Literally now: He just announced he wants the Democrats to set up a “shadow government” to oppose the agenda President Donald Trump got elected to deliver.
Worse yet, Walz is not alone. The entire Democratic Party has signed on—and the “shadow government” has already held its first meeting.
Walz and his fellow Democrats announced the conspiracy in plain sight, without a peep from the fake news media.
“I’ve been saying this: I think we need a Shadow Government, so when all these things come up, every single day, we have an alternate press conference telling the truth about what things are happening,” Walz, the Minnesota governor announced at a town hall meeting on March 28.

Tim Walz has experience in the shadows: The inconsequential man shrunk into Kamala Harris’ shadow all through their billion dollar failed 2024 presidential campaign.
Now, he wants to run for president himself—but first, he wants a make-believe Cabinet in place… and the Democrats already have complied.
The Democratic National Committee announced it has formed a so-called “People’s Cabinet” to represent the little guys against the Trump administration — the same administration that the little guys actually voted for.
This rump Cabinet will be “made up of experts, leaders, and everyday Americans from across the country who will equip communities with the reliable, accurate information they need to fight back,” DNC Chair Ken Martin announced last Friday.
He also rolled out the names of people being appointed to represent “the people”:
- Former Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, who ran unsuccessfully for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination. He served about one year as Social Security Commissioner for Joe Biden.
- Robert Reich, the tiny ultra-liberal who worked as Bill Clinton’s Labor Secretary.
- Former Sen. Heidi Heitkamp of North Dakota, who left the Senate after losing a landslide election to Republican Kramer in 2018 by 11 points.
- Former Wisconsin Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes, a far-Left socialist who lost his Senate race against Republican Ron Johnson.
- Former Virginia House of Delegates member Hala Ayala, who doesn’t even have the support of her fellow Democrats: She lost her 2023 Democratic primary by a humiliating 15 points.
- Julie Su, acting Labor Secretary under Biden, who couldn’t get confirmed by the Senate because of her radical record. As California’s labor secretary, she oversaw the Covid-era unemployment program as prison inmates and organized crime filed thousands of phony and fraudulent unemployment claims—and collected.
- Will Westmoreland from something called The Back Forty.
In typical Deep State fashion, the Democratic “People’s Cabinet” is a bunch of election losers rejected by the people.
Meanwhile, their congressional counterpart has already held its first meeting—and you’ll never believe who chaired it.
Newly elected Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., banged the gavel and presided over hearings for a supposed “bicameral” “oversight” committee.
He claimed Democrats had to start their own oversight committee—which includes Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, and others—because the Republican-controlled House has “stood by as the president has run roughshod over the legislative branch and turned Congress into a little more than a rubber stamp.”
But there’s more: Schiff warns that Donald Trump is — stop us if you’ve heard this — literally Hitler.
“The Trump administration is following a well-worn playbook,” said Schiff. “In the 1930s, a Jewish lawyer in Berlin tracked in meticulous detail how Germany gradually became what he called a ‘dual state’—first, to keep the country running. The ordinary legal system remained in place for most people.”
“And yet,” Schiff continued, “step by step, a parallel system of governance and law emerged – what one scholar called a ‘lawless zone’—a parallel system to carry out the will of the leader and go after his enemies, real or perceived. To punish. To reward. To co-opt.”
But isn’t setting up a “Shadow Government” literally the definition of a “dual state”?

Doesn’t having two contending legislatures, each claiming the full faith and credit of the U.S. government, invite confusion among voters at home and foreign leaders overseas about who’s in charge?
Isn’t that exactly the kind of chaos radical Islamic terrorists, Central American narcoterrorists, and Chinese Communist sleeper cells would exploit to inflict maximum damage on the U.S.?
After all, planning for the deadliest attack on U.S. soil, 9/11, went into overdrive as Democrat Al Gore held up the results of the 2000 election for the longest time in modern history, and Democrats spent eight years claiming Republican President George W. Bush was not a legitimate president.
Today—25 years and thousands of American lives later—the Democrats are “following a well-worn playbook.”
Not to spoil the ending, but in the last chapter, it hurts America.
