I am not surprised one bit.

1. And New Jersey!

[Terry_M]

2. How much are they paying us

To take Jersey with us when we split off?

[LauraInLA]

3. This is such a waste of time, IMNSHO ;(. I think we in CA should perhaps be exploring ways to "cut"

federal/income taxes so we can keep more of our money in-state.

4. I know all the words to "Oh, Canada " from the ballpark.

Do I get in?

5. Sigh - not this again; attractive as it is -

We're still entangled with the Federal Government, and for a legitimate reason.
For any of the states to untangle themselves, even with California as the fifth (or fourth) largest economy in the world is an expensive and legally complex effort, and that's if both sides are acting in good faith.

The same argument made against Texas Secession works against California; and we've got just as much Federal Land and just as many Federal Employees/Employers in this state.

Id love the thought, but that ship sailed in 1865.

[Bread and Circuses]

6. Absolutely NOT

background
The MAGA crowd in Northern California have wanted to secede, they call it the “free state of Lincoln”


Blue states need to hold the Union!

If California peels off. It will splinter into small powerless states.
I will not let the fascists take my country - NOT one state!

The Kremlin wants to break apart the USA and this secessionist madness is their playbook.

7. Correct

Efforts go back to TFGs first Reign of Error

[Mountainguy]

8. We laugh at Texas when they do this every time a Democrat wins

And this will end up the same as all those.

[Skittles]

9. it's so fucking ridiculous

we need to SAVE AMERICA, not divide her even more

[bdamomma]

11. I agree

this is Putin's goal to break us apart.

The felon is doing Putin's bidding.

[LeftInTX]

10. More than laugh. Everyone takes it seriously! My gosh, just because a yahoo files a bill!

Texas secession has about as much luck passing as "Every Sperm Is Sacred" bills.

I wish Texas would secede, so we could finally convince hubby, kids and grandkids to GTF outta here, but it's not gonna happen.
