The Democrats don’t fool around, remember HR1. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, The Goper’s are worried about their kennedy Center Box seats.

Consider this. If you add new states, that means you have to change the flag.

And you know what they will say, “Well if we’re going to change the flag, we might as well go all the way and do an entirely new flag”.

Then basically the current US Flag will become the new Confederate Flag.

They want to make DC a state for the additional dem seats and votes. Also, there is no longer a fear of voter disapproval since they now control the election process.

I got a deal. Texas will get out of feral government and the other 49 bitches are welcomed to add DC as the 50 th state.

That way the flag and other documents would not have to be updated and Texas would once again stand with its head held high among the nations. Effin win win in my book.

Texans support the #TEXIT initiative. Go to TNM.me for more info. You can also freep mail me and I can share some bullet points

demonicRATS look at The Constitution the way Capt. Barbossa viewed The Pirate’s Code. More of a set of guidelines than a list of hard and fast rules.

If there is a problem with DC security, and if it’s constitutional, simply have the state of Maryland annex DC. Problem solved.

Ah, yes...The Constitution

There you go, using logic, reason, evidence to explain why a Leftist policy is harmful.

Doesn’t matter; we will soon suffer under a One Party state in which all of the statist, collectivist, social engineering programs will be rammed down our throats.

They will soon pass a $15/hour minimum wage, which will wipe out many low-paying entry-level jobs. Unemployment will increase dramatically as employers spend the same amount of money on fewer workers.

Try explaining that to AOC who is already complaining that the proposed budget is not bigger.

but they cannot relinquish their authority over the city permanently, as they would by bestowing statehood upon it.
Government doesn't follow the rules. DC would be a "state" in form only. Congress would retain full control. There would be no truly independent "state" apparatus, just another layer of sinecure appointments to be doled out as favors.

More bureacracy is always better, to the bureaucrat.

Been thinking about this. I think the two can be reconciled. DC becomes a state. To stay within constitutional mandates the federal government must move immediately to Guam along with all department headquarters and their employees.

DC should be split between West Virginia & Maryland. That is the fairest option.

The founders of the Constitution knew what they were doing. The federal district was deliberately NOT to be a state. It was explicitly designated as NOT a state so that no state would effectively control the federal government.

What part of that is not obvious?
