Tucker is now getting obvious madmen on his show. If he doesn’t watch it, he’ll turn into Morton Downey Jr.
Now, if he got someone who, on some level, could talk about secession with some modicum of rationality, I wouldn’t fast forward.
It was worth it, though, because he followed it up with Victor Hanson Davis.
Video is not there anymore.
They should take WA and Or with them.
First Things Journal this month also has an author mention this in an article called "The Age of Concentration By Eugene Voldoazkin.

On Carlson's show this man dismissed the middle class and focused upon immigration as what will power California. When Carlson brought up the medevil aspects the radical leftist was dismissive.
There is a walk in the Western world towards enslavement.
Those who give up liberty for security deserve neither.- Benji Franklin
If you love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you; May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen. - Samuel Adams
But remember: Karl Marx considered the bourgeoisie (the middle class) to be the real enemy of communism and demanded that it be destroyed by violence.
Those counties that wish to remain in the U.S.A. can become the U.S. State of California, just as the western counties of Virginia became the U. S. State of West Virginia when Virginia seceded from the Union.
As long as they deposit their share of the 20 TRILLION dollar National debt, return everything stamped US as in all military equipment, supplies, personnel (those from California that wish to leave the service may, all postal equipment. supplies etc.
Who knew..?? /s
Oh, well.
The guy’s head is on loose.His mind, too.
Bttt
This Calexit stuff is funny. It’s thrown out there without any analysis of the real challenges, like:
- The U.S. would likely withdraw their military bases, a huge economic impact.
- California has unsustainable debt which the U.S. will no longer protect or guarantee.
- Most large corporations there are U.S. based, with the bulk of their business sales and operations in the rest of the states. Many of those companies would have to relocate to the U.S. or face additional tax and import burdens.
- The numbers of poor and socially-supported people are unsustainable.
- They don’t have enough power to support their state/country, nor the resources to make it.
- The don’t have enough water to support their state/country, nor the resources to draw it.
- The population is engaging in their own “Calexit”, by moving in vast numbers out of the state. These are productive middle class citizens and fed-up wealthy folks. The exodus in unsustainable and would require California to open their borders to immigration even more, creating an even greater burden on their social systems.
These are serious gaps in their plans, which don’t seem to rise to the level of discussion, even in these silly interviews. Calexit would be a disaster for California, and would be an amusing collapse to watch.
America has it’s own version of Quebec now. Constant whining and demanding but never actually leaving. Both far left places with some nice tourist attractions.

...want to restructure society on a medieval framework of Elites and Serfs (slaves)...

Has the author not SEEN the tax code; how much each of us ‘owe’ a large % of our lives to taxes? How those taxes are given to others w/o input (economic slavery)? Not aware of the areas/amount of ‘license’ one needs from govt to do....anything (exercise 2nd, ‘drive’, travel (visa), hell, even work on your OWN home)? How the BLM/Park Service/etc. presume all land/water/air is ‘theirs’.
Serfdom has BEEN in the U.S. a great many moon. Those whom believe the 13th ended slavery are woefully ignorant.
That guy Tucker had on was IMO quite high on something. His body movements, expressions, and the content of his message told me he was messed up, and I do mean TOTALLY messed up. He most certainly did NOT speak for the majority of Californians either.
The guy that came on later was Victor Davis Hanson BTW.
Sorry Chickensoup I meant to post against the other comment in which VDH was VHD.
I suggest we make them Calexit and USAexit. We keep the land, they lose the country. Ship ‘em to North Korea.
