Yes.
Doesn’t he answer his own question here? Parts of states cannot secede unless both the state and Feds agree to it, which has only happened under CW conditions (West Virginia)
“Is the US splitting apart?”
Duh!
California is NOT red on the local level....at least not in its big cities and metro areas wher about 90% of the people reside.

BTW I don't get this take on 187. The measure passed with 2/3 of the vote & was thrown out by a single corrupt judge.
WHAT?
With The Great Uniter at the helm? Perish the thought.
Why not have states split?
It’s happened before (Maine + W. Virginia), and there is nothing saying we have to have 50. We had far fewer in the past.
Most of these are states created out of territories, not (for the most part) former nations with centuries of history. Big whoop if California shrinks.
Producers vs takers ***AND*** their enablers.
Every state is now a border state. Immigration, legal and illegal, is changing the electoral map in this country. Unless we reduce legal immigration and stop illegal immigration, the entire country will look like CA.
May be.

Nonsense. That was the last chance to save California, and one judge put the stop to it.
Nothing would make me happier.
I see this as a good thing. Americans are pushing back against governmental overrreach at all levels.
Progressive, like cancer.
United We Stand
Divided We Fall
Movin' on Up [Theme from The Jeffersons] Well we're movin on up, To the east side. To a deluxe apartment in the sky. Movin on up, To the east side. We finally got a piece of the pie. Fish don't fry in the kitchen; Beans don't burn on the grill. Took a whole lotta tryin', Just to get up that hill. Now we're up in the big leagues, Gettin' our turn at bat. As long as we live, it's you and me baby, There ain't nothin wrong with that. Well we're movin on up, To the east side. To a deluxe apartment in the sky. Movin on up, To the east side. We finally got a piece of the pie.................
Feds would never agree — unless of course they see an opportuniry to make Puerto Rico a state or D.C. or some other liberal home a state just to balance out.
