I do not know if this has been posted.

I guess they have had enough of liberal insanity.

They want to secede to Idaho. More power to them, but it's unlikely to happen. The good thing is, they are drawing lines in the sand and saying "enough!".

I, for one, would LOVE to see county succession to neighboring states become commonplace. I know it's be a pain, but eventually there'd be blue urban core mini-states and massive red states. It let's each side govern themselves to their liking, and shifts a few electoral votes to team red.

Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington, and Northeastern California need to all join together and form a new state.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Need to secede and form their own state. We need two more conservative reps and senators.

Call it Secedegon.

Counties separating from big metro areas is more likely imo.

Big metro areas are controlled by Democrats. Rural counties are usually red. Republicans wont do anything that would stop Democrats...

Blocking infrastructure projects and voting down local subsidies for urban centers is a key way counties can push back. Seeing it a lot with the green energy projects like wind and solar farms.

The jobs and money go to urban centers and all the rural area gets is a down payment on a new school expansion. People are sick of it. They would rather see those investments in local industry.

I totally agree. The problem is that Texas Republicans believe green energy(Perry signed a 7 billion dollar wind bill) is more important.

The only solution is to remove the majority of Republican politicians for real representatives.

St. George out of Baton Rouge just incorporated for this reason. They weren't a town but the parish kept taking their money and putting into the urban portion of EBR Parish but not building schools or improving infrastructure in their area despite the fact that 40% of tax revenue came from them

JEFERSON!
NO AMNESTY!

in order for democrats, liberals, progressives et al to continue their illogical belief systems they have to pretend not to know a lot of things; by pretending "not to know" there is no guilt, no actual connection to conscience. Denial of truth allows easier trespass.

Eweonc becomes a state if/when Puerto Rico becomes a state.

They should withhold all tax collections and not remit them to the state. If they can survive without state directed federal money, they're in the clear.

This isn't entirely without legal precedent, but redrawing state/territorial boundaries is something congress would have to do and would have to survive a legal challenge.

In general I agree. But there are higher chances of that happening on a county level than an entire state.

I disagree because the state would have to agree to the counties leaving.

Texas wouldn't let El Paso County go to New Mexico, etc.

Why not? Just lop that entire piece right off. They'd fit right in with the politics of NM.
Covidians, Communists, CNN, FOX, and all other MSM are enemies of the state and should be treated as such.

As a proud former resident of Lake County, OR I can attest that the folks in Adel, Lakeview, and Paisley have absolutely zero things in common with Portland, Salem, or Eugene other than a shared license plate.

If this was 15 years ago, Deschutes County (Bend) would have pushed hard for a similar vote, but sadly the parasitic tentacles of California and Portland have crept in.

Why would El Paso want to go to NM?! If anything, eastern NM would want to join Texas.

If El Paso left, UTEP would close, their Med School would close, no more roads would be built, and their hospitals would close.

On the the other hand, if eastern NM left, they'd immediately get better infrastructure, better public schools, better community colleges, better health care, lower taxes, and a return of their energy jobs.

Just give the democratic leadership about 5 more years to bankrupt Oregon and Idaho can make a small donation to bail the dumbasses out and there won't be any conflict within the Oregon legislature to redraw state lines because they'll be desperate for money to pay crony politicians pension schemes.

The pre-1850 compromise map of Texas could be restored without too many objections if we could clear our Santa Fe and Taos and get ABQ to relocate entirely west of the river. .

Sure - but it would provide some perceived benefit in both directions.
El Paso joins NM, Philly ditches for NJ, Kansas City, KS merges with Kansas City, MO, Milwaukee joins Chicago in IL, and then there's also the potential strategic moves such as Houston trying to shift to LA and use their weight to create a blue state for themselves.

Not that LIVs demand rationally sound persuasions, but the Dems have told them for years that Trumpsters are the enemy and not worth associating with and holding things back - it would be quite the whiplash for Dem leaders to transition to blocking the departure of "basically nazis."
