1. If they want to get rid of “corrupt DC” the states should work together to do so instead of individually submitting a petition to “peacefully withdraw” to a recipient with no authority to grant the petition. The states and the people created the Federal Government, the “corrupt DC”. They can replace it if they will. If they won't, I don't see how they can even manage a withdrawal, peaceful or not.
2. The states may be free to reunite afterward, but there will be much pressure to prevent reunification.
The Republican US House is acting like they do not control our house.
The Democrat US Senate has not even passed a budget in 3 years.
The Supreme Court has nullified itself by allowing the same justice to write a majority and dissenting opinion. It has become schizophrenic to say the least.
The Democrat President is quite literally allowed to do anything he pleases. And that includes his immediate staff and cabinet.
We have just finished an election where the incumbent had very little visible support while the challenger had lots of visible support. The incumbent won and there are indications of massive voter fraud.
We have no where to go from here with DC on board.
