An American citizen spearheading the California secessionist movement said hell open an embassy in Moscow this weekend as his separatist campaign looks toward Russia for recognition.Louis Marinelli, the president of the Yes California Independence Campaign, plans to open the doors Sunday to the Golden States first ever embassy in none other than the Russian capital.Mr. Marinelli, 30, has been one of the most vocal proponents in recent years of the grassroots movement dedicated towards gaining Californias independence from the United States. Hes orchestrated that campaign from abroad since at least September, however, when he relocated from San Diego to Siberia to be with his Russian wife, KQED recently reported.

I realize this guy is some random kook, but isn’t what he’s doing illegal?
There is that. Thank you.
I want to see all of America be great again, including California.
Any real attempt by California to sever itself from U.S. jurisdiction would likely result in the military occupation of the state by U.S. forces, the imposition of martial law, and mass arrests and incarceration of rebels. This Louis Marinelli is promoting treason and he should be dealt with by the FBI.
Prediction: The balance of the supreme court will swing to the right, Roe v. Wade will be reversed, gay marriage will be reversed, Obamacare will be reversed, millions of illegals living in CA will “stay in the shadows”.
CA will break away.
“No, it wont. If they want to go, I dont see anybody willing to employ violence to make them stay.”
We did in 1861. Seriously, there are to many Americans who naturally envision California as PART OF AMERICA to just say “Bye, bye” as if it were nothing.
Nope. Not even one county in CA will be let go. CA is just too valuable due to the coast line and its fertile farming valley along with all the military bases positioned there for defense and other geopolitical reasons. Allowing it to secede and become its own or part of another country would leave us very vulnerable. It it isn’t careful the nation may choose to sanction it and not let it vote in national elections though. That’s something worth looking at even if it takes making a new law to do it.
This will not go anywhere. If anything it will motivate the country to drain the illegals out of the swamps that some of CA has become.
Now I can see it become a NorCal and SoCal; breaking into two states - maybe even 3, 4, or even 5 states with L.A county becoming a state and the Bay Area also becoming a state. I know there’s a section in the far north that would love to break away from the liberalism of what CA is today. Breaking up the state may be the only way to fix it at this point.
People keep laughing about this as if its all a joke. ITS NOT A JOKE. This is going to turn into a real movement. No state can take in millions and millions of illegals from a foreign nation(s) and not be effected by it. California WILL see the birth of a REAL secessionist movement and its going to lead to serious violence if this garbage is not ended soon.
I hope its not a joke. I don’t think its garbage at all. Hell, if I knew who to contribute some of my hard earned money to, i would. These morons need to be encouraged. Please, secede. PLEASE........
I own some property in CA I’ve been thinking of selling. After reading this, it’s take the money and run.
Humanity is headed that way, not just California.
I recall reading once that 75% of the state’s annual precipitation falls north of Sacramento, and 75% of the water demand is south of the capital. Would love to live long enough to see a ‘Norcal’ with that kind of leverage.
California secession? Build a wall.
So he’s opening an “embassy” in the country that allegedly supported the election of his mortal enemy. Makes perfect sense...not.
I’d be willing to pay to see them leave the union!
Calexit is a great idea... get rid of that huge ship of fools!
The vast majority of the counties in cali are red counties who went for trump.
BUT,
The votes are in the cities and there is nothing the rest of the state can do about it at the ballot box.
BUT,
Those red counties also control the production and delivery of the food, water, and power to the cities. In other words if there is a resistance to this pipe dream the cities will just be choked off and have to face conservative guns.
Liberals love to believe they control everything. We will ask them about that again after a week of no food deliveries, no water, no power, and no working toilets...
The smell erupting from the cities will tell the story.
If I read this correctly , CA may secede with the permission of the other states.
Somewhere, I got the silly idea that is was unlawful for a private person to treat with a foreign state.
“Prediction: The balance of the supreme court will swing to the right, Roe v. Wade will be reversed, gay marriage will be reversed, Obamacare will be reversed, millions of illegals living in CA will stay in the shadows.”
All that, and we still won’t be able to do anything about the foreign invaders in our midst?
Getting a handle on the illegals will actually be the easiest of those targets to achieve. It only takes simple enforcement of our existing laws.
“The soverign nation of Libtardia.”
We believe Perversia is more fitting.
