Red-State Secession Redux

The idea of a national divorce has been trending lately thanks in part to a recent tweet storm from Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene (MTG). And by “national divorce,” she basically means stepping up to the line of red-state secession and not crossing it. As with most happenings in politics, all substantive change must be incremental and not instant. But because MTG’s proposal is much less incremental than usual (and because she is a sitting member of the House of Representatives), a national divorce is now a bit more conceivable than it used to be.


We need to keep beating this drum, regardless if we see red-state secession as an end in itself or merely the first step towards a viable white ethnostate. Either outcome would be an improvement to what we have today. MTG is tripling down, and so should we.
