One Year Later: The Sedition Tape That Refuses to Die
How the Minnesota DFL Thought They Could Memory-Hole Their Own Mutiny Video… and Why They’re About to Fail Spectacularly
It was November 19, 2024. Donald Trump had just been elected President again. He was still President-elect, not yet sworn in. And before he could even pick his new Chief of Staff, the Minnesota DFL decided the National Guard needed a mutiny briefing.
First came the national 88-second “Don’t Give Up the Ship” blueprint on November 18 from the DC deep-state chorus (Slotkin, Kelly, Crow, Spanberger, Sherrill, etc.).
Then, on November 19, Angie Craig posted the localized 31-second Minnesota remix: Tim Walz, Peggy Flanagan, Ilhan Omar, Angie Craig, Slotkin, and Sherrill staring down the camera, telling Minnesota troops to put their partisan definition of the Constitution above the chain of command of the man America had just elected.
Walz delivered the punchline at the 22-second mark: “We have to protect our democracy.”
Translation: if the new Commander-in-Chief orders you to secure the border, stop the riots, or dismantle the ballot-harvesting networks we’ve been running, ignore him.
They thought a year would bury it.
They were wrong.
Fast-forward to today, November 20, 2025. The Washington Examiner ran a fresh piece at 9:20 AM CST re-embedding the Minnesota clip and asking the question the DFL never wanted asked again.
President Trump reposted it at 7:21 AM with four words that detonated the internet:
“SEDITIOUS BEHAVIOR, punishable by DEATH!”
What happened next was the fastest, most transparent panic meltdown in Minnesota political history.
• 10:00 AM – Angie Craig quietly deletes her original post. The link now shows only X’s cartoon poodle.
• 11:08 AM – Ilhan Omar quote-tweets Trump: “None of this is normal.” (Translation: “How dare you remind people what we said.”)
• ~12:33 PM – Angie Craig, the same woman who posted the mutiny video, now lectures: “The President of the United States should not be threatening to kill those who disagree with him.”
• 12:47 PM – Tim Walz drags Melissa Hortman’s corpse out of the grave to scream about “violent rhetoric,” while conveniently forgetting his own appointee executed her for crossing the machine.
• 3:10 PM – Peggy Flanagan, still wearing the same buckskin from the sedition tape, cries “dictators!” because someone finally called her bluff.
Four different flavors of damage control, all within eight hours, all from the exact same people on the exact same video Trump just labeled seditious.
Then the scrubbing went into overdrive:
• The Washington Examiner article itself 404’d by noon.
• Rumble mirrors vanished.
• Bots flooded every remaining clip with “context” and “fact-checks.”
But here’s what they can’t scrub:
Under the Uniform Code of Military Justice, Article 94 – Mutiny and Sedition – anyone who “creates any violence or disturbance” or “with intent to usurp or override lawful military authority, refuses, in concert with any other person, to obey orders or otherwise do his duty” can be sentenced to death during time of war or life imprisonment any time.
These politicians weren’t “reminding troops about their oath.”
They were on camera coaching active-duty personnel to pre-plan disobedience of the lawful orders of the incoming Commander-in-Chief.
That is the textbook definition of creating a concert of refusal.
That is Article 94 territory.
That is 18 U.S.C. § 2384 – Seditious Conspiracy territory.
And their synchronized meltdown today – the deletions, the crocodile tears, the sudden love for “decorum” – is consciousness of guilt in real time.
The videos are still out there, mirrored on servers the DFL can’t reach, archived by citizens who move faster than their cleanup crews, and now permanently attached to a presidential Truth Social post with tens of thousands of reposts.
The Minnesota National Guard saw it.
JAG officers saw it.
The new Attorney General saw it.
And every one of those troops now knows exactly who tried雲 to turn their oath into a political weapon.
In 2026 Minnesota gets to deliver the final verdict.
We can reward the party that spent the last 24 hours frantically deleting evidence of its own sedition…
or we can finish the job the voters started in 2024 and clean the entire syndicate out of St. Paul for good.
I know where this 21-year Navy intelligence officer stands.
