The budding California secession movement now known as Calexit by some has rumbled around for several years, but just gained more momentum to move forward.
Made of up of leftists who want to turn the Golden State into a socialist utopia, the Yes California group hopes to get enough support to have a ballot initiative to go before the voters in 2018.
The movement began back in 2015 as some voters argued that California isn’t getting its fair share of federal revenue to pay for needed infrastructure and social programs while its taxpayers are sending more than their fair share to other states that don’t embrace the offbeat cultural values of California.
Who knew Californians would embrace the states rights argument that fueled the Confederacy?
Naturally, observers on the other side of the argument may see an upside to California’s departure, given the fact that it harbors illegal immigrants who’ve become a financial burden on the educational and health systems, not to mention a conduit for the flow of criminal gangs and drugs into the United States.

It wouldn’t be up to tRump. That would go through Congress.
What the illegals so they can have Shaira Law! illegals have NO RIGHTS!! Ask the American that live in California!
Stupid effort, you have to amend the constitution first.
No state belongs to the corporation of America. All states are there own sovereign entity
Well you can’t succeed but you can leave!
I think they should go. It pretty much garantees a demoncrat will never be president and then Puerto Rico can just jump in and replace them to keep everything even at fifty. 😉
The state belongs to the state. Did you learn anything in school. The United States is exactly that. Soveregn states United under a corporation called America. Every state can leave the agreement any time they want.
bye bye.
