The whole “CalExit” secession movement might be dead for the time being, but California’s radical leftist political class remains intent on separating their state from the rest of the U.S. in every way imaginable. Despite being so near insolvency that Governor Jerry Brown has had to beg the federal government for massive monetary assistance no fewer than four times during the first half of 2017, the state’s Attorney General, the execrable Xavier Becerra, announced on Friday that he was adding four more states to California’s own travel ban. This travel ban prevents state employees from traveling to other states in the union which have implemented policies with which California’s lunatic public officials don’t agree. The ban list now applies to 8 states, including Texas, which sets up an interesting test case when football season begins in September. San Jose State is currently scheduled to travel to Austin that month to get its collective ass whipped by the Texas Longhorns. The problem here is that the Spartans’ coaching staff are all state employees. It will be interesting to see how the team fares, playing a game against a superior opponent with no coaches on the sideline.
In other lamebrain California policymaker news, the Democrat plan to implement a Canadian-style single-payer healthcare system was finally pulled by the Assembly Speaker on Friday, ending a farce everyone knew was doomed to fail. Seems it’s kind of hard for a state that already sports a massive annual budget deficit to come up with the $400 billion it would take to fund such a system on an annual basis. Yes, that’s “Billion” – it’s not a typo.

Fine, but now can we please have CenCoastExit?
Governor Jerry Brown has had to beg the federal government for massive monetary assistance no fewer than four times.
CalExit thinkers have no plan B logic went to slush par.
Let my children go.
It would be fun if one airline, say Southwest, simply stopped ticketing California residents who wanted to go to Texas...citing the ‘travel ban’ as the reason.
Never happen, but it would be HYSTERICAL seeing all the California-types SCREAMING for the chance to visit Texas.
How can I help make #CALEXIT a reality?

CalExit is Dead in Name Only

Finally, Democrats in Los Angeles are considering a proposal to re-name Rodeo Drive “Barack Obama Boulevard”. You know Rodeo Drive, right – that famous street where preening leftwing hucksters sell gaudy, over-hyped products for insanely high prices? Hey, sounds just like ObamaCare! How fitting is that?
The University of Texas and the Texas Tribune released a new poll pretending to show Donald Trump is highly unpopular in the Lone Star State. The poll doesn’t make its sampling method public, but it does break down its findings between Republicans, Democrats and Independents. Doing a little extrapolating seems to show that the pollsters surveyed more Democrats than they did Republicans. This would have been an appropriate sample breakdown in 1990, the last time Democrats dominated an election in Texas. The last time the voters of Texas elected a single Democrat in a statewide election was 1994. Just another #fakepoll. Sad to see it coming from UT.
Meanwhile, in our nation’s capital, the Democrats’ “Russia Collusion” fantasy play has become so toxic to voters that many Democrat members of congress are banding together to try to force San Fran Nan, Cryin’ Chuckie Schumer and the rest of the Democrat congressional leadership to stop even talking about it. These Democrats actually want and expect their leaders to talk about real issues instead. Hilarious. That’s like expecting your dog to quit eating its own vomit. Not gonna happen.
Just another day in lunatic Democrat America.
That is all
CA get the hell out!
What can the rest of us do to help get them back on track?
That would be funny. The libtards couldn’t organize a middle school car wash. Now it’s the normal folks turn.
can we start CalKickedOut ?
I’d bet that the required number of States would vote to “permit” CA to secede AND become a Territory of the US.
They would get one Representative, as an observer, in the House but no vote.
The US would still control the ports and military bases.
That change would benefit the USA forever and send a message to any other State so inclined, i.e. Hawaii.
It was the Big Tent Republicans that brought Michael Huffington into the congress and this Reagan Country district has been lost to Democrat fools ever since.
Do not let CalPERS invest in the other 49 states.
They should leave, a clean break, the whole state no strings. The sooner the better.
#CALGONE
They should leave, a clean break, the whole state no strings.
*********************************
No can do. The ports and military bases are important to the commerce and defense of the US. ...Just make CA a Territory.
Yes can do and the USA will be fine without those ports. Don’t worry our “Captains of Industry” will still get the cheap foreign made crap to WalMart without those CA ports.
CALexit is definitely a idea whose time has arrived.
