Texas and maybe Louisiana secede and the marxist in chief issue orders to bring them back.
Senior military commanders instead round up the reds (the "progressive congressional caucus" for starters) and put them on a couple of planes to Cuba.
Provisional military government for 6 months, then new elections for all congressional seats and the WH, incumbents need not apply.
Only tax paying citizens and veterans are enfranchised in the new Republic.
All amendments other than the original bill of rights are repealed.
"Dueling" legalized within Washington DC limits.
Problem solved
>”Dueling” legalized within Washington DC limits.
That ALONE could solve our problems with our non-representing Representatives... though we’d have to make that Amendment 11 so they couldn’t weasel out of it should they become cliquish again.
As I recall from US History, those states did secede and it did not work out all that well for them.
And Louisiana as its own country?
You must be joking.
Obama and the communists in charge in DC get completely out of control and States start to refuse to comply.

I LIKE your solution to the problem — but once you get past the President ordering the military to deal with the rogue states, it becomes less realistic.
I think if the states DID that today — perhaps not secede, but simply reimplement the Tenth Amendment, and refuse to send taxes to Washington until they comply, THEN the scenario might work out a bit different. It might even succeed... But there are a LOT of “ifs” in ANY scenario we can imagine...
