Marjorie Taylor Greene Says States Should 'Consider Seceding From the Union'
(www.rollingstone.com)
Mega Trailer Gronky says peach tree dish leave now pls
Why shouldn't they be allowed to secede? Let the inhabitants of each state vote under international supervision to make sure the vote goes by according to western standards. I see no reason why any community should be barred from seeking independence and self rule.
It would quite literally become a humanitarian crisis. The states that want to look at secession are all unprofitable states.
Something tells me the secessionists wouldn't agree with that. Are they going to let their urban centers secede from their states if they voted to do so?

Don't threaten me with a good time!
How is that lady winning elections? She got reelected again in 2022 by a pretty large margin. Crazy world we live in.
A lot of fuckwits vote, unfortunately
She'd be living in a very poor country.
Bye Missy
Please do, the resulting catastrophe and people fleeing to the union would be hilarious
She seceded from sanity long ago, cut her some slack.
@FlyingSquid what a traitorous scumbag. I can't wait for her to disappear from the media landscape because I'm so sick of her stupidity and absolute disregard for non-Christians.
Section Three.
Her mouth is an unending streaming of diarrhea'd bullshit. The news reporting on everything she says is a sisyphean task.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In February, Georgia Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene called for a “national divorce” between red and blue states.
On Monday, Greene (R-Ga.) wrote on X (formerly Twitter) that “if the Biden admin refuses to stop the invasion of cartel led human and drug trafficking into our country, states should consider seceding from the union.”
“From the sick and disgusting woke culture issues shoved down our throats to the Democrat’s traitorous America Last policies, we are done,” Greene said at the time.
The measure would allow Texans to vote on “whether or not the State should investigate the possibility of Texas independence, and present potential plans to the Legislature.”
In 2022, failed Ohio congressional candidate J.R. Majewski called for states where a majority of voters had supported Trump to split from the country.
While Majewski failed to make it into elected office, Greene’s repeated calls for succession have not gone unnoticed by her colleagues in the House.
