Please, please pass.

Quote:A proposal for California to secede from the United States was submitted to the Secretary of State’s Office Thursday.

Maybe just the West end of California could exit. I'm sure that most of the farmers out there, that produce the vast majority of American Produce, don't agree with the Liberal agenda anyway..

[GMDino]

Just like Texas threatened.

Just like Mississippi talked about.

No one is going anywhere.

But if CA left I wonder of Trump would tax their exports?  LOL!

Funny. I haven't heard any other news agencies reporting this.

Pretty sure they're busy reporting about more important things. Perhaps the fact that Trump did not come to a complete stop at a 4-way intersection back in 1994. But I'm betting you can type Calexit into a search bar and get more than 1 source.

It's probably everywhere but the OP just "happened" to use FOX News that the folks on the right say they don't even pay attention too....

Who the hell said they don't pay attention to FOX News?

They are a large economy themselves. Not sure if they thumbed their nose at the president if he would give them Colorado River water though.

Wow! An op-ed page!

I thought they were extinct since everyone else just uses fake news now!

Well, this was the 1st link.  There were plenty of others, like thehill.com, NPR, and others.

I wonder if they've given any thought to losing the 32 Military Bases they have.

As I said: I hope this gets legs. 

[Millhouse]

Bunch of crybabies. Did the South try to secede under Obama's watch? No, because they know better...

Any word on California building a wall on the Arizona and Nevada state line?

I suggest California Uber Alles by the Dead Kennedys for their national anthem... "I am Governor Jerry Brown. I order smiles, and never frowns. Soon I will be president...." It's perfect.

Roger Goodell is praying this happens. Not one but three NFL teams in a foreign country.

I suppose the real middle finger would be California returning to Mexico.

Something tells me Trump would just have 32 Gitmos in the Republic of California... They should start working on that eastern wall immediately.

Californians are so silly.

Wow, I didn't realize that the Dead Kennedys were still making new music.  I haven't listened to anything by them is probably 30 years.
