Inland Part of California Wants to Split Off from Coastal Progressive Power Centers and Form New, More Conservative State

How about the progressive part of California just secedes from the United States?

Think about it, progressives: 90% tax rates, guns illegal for everyone except politicians and celebrities and millionaires, and Obama can run for president.

Come on, fellas. You know you want it.

Anyway, baby steps:

With the reading of their own version of a Declaration of Independence, founders of the state of New California took the first steps to what they hope will eventually lead to statehood.

To be clear, they don't want to leave the United States, just California.

"Well, it's been ungovernable for a long time. High taxes, education, you name it, and we're rated around 48th or 50th from a business climate and standpoint in California," said founder Robert Paul Preston.

The state of New California would incorporate most of the state's rural counties, leaving the urban coastal counties to the current state of California.

54 This needs to be encouraged as much as possible.

My hope is MAYBE Trump's coalition with the Rust Belt has created an Electoral Math problem for Democrats to where they are shut out of the WH for a while. And then Coastal California decides to secede.

Secession really should be/should have been have a peaceful process. I think everybody would be much happier.

297 We should never cede territory to them. They certainly gave no quarter when Barky the Feckless was "ruling".

They are terrorists with no intention of living peacefully with anyone.

Their footsoldiers and terror-activist (Antifa,BLM) should be sent to Gitmo.

Their funding sources - Zuckerberg, Bezos, Soros - should be stripped of their money and their organizations disbanded.

Their ringleaders and politicians should be tried and hung.

Then, after 7 years of benevolent martial law, Californians will be allowed to vote again.

An illegal immigrant began his murder trial for the 2014 killings of two Northern California sheriff’s deputies on Tuesday with a profanity-laced rant, calling a partner of one of the slain officers a “coward.”

Prosecutor Rod Norgaard recounted the events that led to the death of Sacramento Sheriff’s Deputy Danny Oliver outside a Sacramento motel in October 2014, and described how Oliver’s partner, Deputy Scott Brown, was able to retreat from the heavy gunfire.

Luis Enrique Monroy Bracamontes, 37, the alleged killer, interrupted the court when he grinned and called Brown a “coward.”

Bracamontes was scolded by the Sacramento Superior Court judge, The Sacramento Bee reported.

“I wish I had killed more of the mother——-s,” Bracamontes told the court. He continued, “I will break out soon and I will kill more, kill whoever gets in front of me…There’s no need for a f—ing trial.”

304 PA had the chance to change to cong. district EV when we had GOP gov and assembly but they never got around to it.

Yeah, it's almost as if they were never really serious about that proposal. The GOPe'rs who run the legislature were far too busy tossing that icky governor under the bus because he didn't sip the right brand of tea.

Of course this could be done in any multi-EV state with a GOP GOV and Legislature. Places like...

Ohio
Michigan
Wisconsin
Florida

You know, states that if they went ME and NE would make it almost mathematically impossible for the Democrats to ever again win an EV majority for the White House.

It's not happening though. I wonder why.

Note there was no indication, no symptoms to give Trump a cognitive function test. Trump told him to do it to put this to rest.

Again, Trump's actual real doctor saw no indication of anything, unlike all these armchair media doctors.

So sorry for your loss.

Others will be more experienced with pups then me, but growing up my family had a King Charles Cavalier Spaniel, who was very low maintenance but still playful.

From what I've seen of golden retrievers or labs however, they seem better suited for an active/companion type of dog.

Again, this is just from my limited experience.

Not really. I don't need an excuse to watch the occasional game. It was more a pointing out that it is easy to give up something you don't really care about while continuing to enjoy the things you like despite them being at least as guilty of SJW activities as the thing that is popular to bash.

His head is not the issue and the Republicans in the House better get their heads out of their asses and realize that. And The White House does not want him testifying about what went on in the White House when he was a aid to The President. Big Picture here

I was reading a couple days ago how some knucklehead with about the most foreign-ish foreign name I ever heard was threatening to commit murder and mayhem at a Pittsburgh Steelers game. Later in the article it mentioned how he had been in something like 25 different clinical trials of drugs.

I'm just supposin' here, but wouldn't it be logical that the side effects of being such a loser that your source of income is engaging in clinical trials would be depression, anger, self-harm, and erectile dysfunction?

486 California needs to be split up. It is ungovernable as it is today. While the schadenfreude of what would happen if they split is delightful to imagine, we are not going to give up our military bases or coastal access. The cartels and other foreign entities would happily move into California and you would need a much bigger wall along Ca's eastern border. It's just not going to happen without a war.

No, I think we could split it so that the urban areas (excluding San Diego) could get their own urban representation. From LA up to SF along the coast, including Hollywierd and Silicon Valley. They can run it like they do now and it would probably still be okay because of the ocean front taxes and income from what's left of Hollywood and Silicon Valley. Everyone else could return to normal.

494 91 I'm for it and I would be in the new super socialist Peoples Republic of California (PRoC).

The leftists should love it because they will then have their ideal society:

1. .01% Rich Elites
2. 5% Government workers
3. 95% super poor workers.

Close but no cigar

1. Rich Elite
2. Government Workers
3. Enough poor workers to clean the houses, drive the cars, cut the grass and wait the tables of 1 and 2.

As soon as 1 and 2 succeed in driving out enough of the middle class, they will no longer need the lower class to maintain their electoral stranglehold. Then the insane real estate market and some strategic gentrification can drive out most of the lower class as well.

501 Besides being a farcical pipe dream, it would be a temporary change. As has been shown time and time again...conservatively run states end up being a destination for liberals who destroy an area and move on to destroy another one in their deeply rooted ignorance and incompetence. I point to New Hampshire as an example. Massachusetts liberals are basically invading the state...and it has gone to the Live Free or Die state to a refuge of Boston liberals who bring their lack of critical thinking and self-important narcissism with them.

513 If done along actual lines of ideology, the boundaries of this new nation would be very odd, and it might not even be contiguous. Here's my first attempt at it.

* The leftists get Los Angeles county, and the western suburban parts of Riverside and San Bernardino counties. We get San Diego, Imperial, and Orange counties and the rural area east of metro LA.

* The leftists get Ventura and Santa Barbara counties. San Luis Obispo county is iffy (but if we get it, the Left-state is broken into two parts).

* They get Monterey and Santa Cruz counties, the bay area, Sonoma and Napa counties (the wine country), and Sacramento and Stockton. We get most of the rest of the central valley.

* Tahoe is iffy -- it leans left, but if they get it, our part of the state gets broken into two parts, too.

* * *

Oddly enough, there is an existing conservative effort to split California, at SOJ51.com (which stands for State of Jefferson). They are currently pursuing a court case which will be news to just about everybody younger than retirement age today.

You see, the way California's constitution was (and still is!) written, California's state senate is not supposed to be elected by population-based districts just like the Assembly. The senate is supposed to have one seat for each of California's 58 counties, period. If this were being obeyed, metro Los Angeles would not be able to totally control the state's legislative process as they do now.

The Senate was not changed by amending the state's constitution, which would have required a popular vote. It was changed by executive order of Governor Earl Warren, who held office about 1960. Then, by the time his opponents' suit was summarily dismissed by the state supreme court, Warren was Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court, and rather than recuse himself, voted to refuse to hear the case against his own usurpation.

SOJ51 has a court date this month in the 9th circuit court of appeals, for its case demanding that the state either restore its proper constitutional system, or allow the "Jefferson" area to vote on seceding from California. They will lose in the 9th Circuit, of course, but the Supreme Court has already hinted that it will hear the case.
