States rights!
Except when it conflicts with whatever unscientific garbage narrative the dictator is pushing.
California should leave the Union
Ugh, States rights? How the fuck do their constituents not see the doublespeak?
With gusto
K, are they gonna send the military to California bcz that’s the only way this is enforceable, then again, California could just not pay taxes, they are the 5th largest economy in rhe world. So, they aren’t exactly defenseless.
This comment fascinates me
California is apparently about 12% of the total tax revenue of the US, and New York is about 8%. If every other state was equal after that, they are about 1.5 each.
That’s quite a lot of leverage
Can’t send people to El Salvador if you can’t pay for planes
Didn’t the manager for the Patriots lend his private plane to deport people to Guantanamo? Lack of government funded airplanes won’t stop them
iirc the Patriots plane has a 3rd party management that manages a bunch of planes that happens to also include the patriots plane.
then again, California could just not pay taxes
Income taxes are paid directly to the Federal government. They do not pass through the states first, and thus California can’t “just not pay taxes” by an act of government fiat. It would have to convince all of its taxpayers to individually stop.
Doesn’t take much to convince me not to pay taxes
Just gradually increase fuel taxes and registration costs.
Or they could flat out deny registrations for any and all gas vehicles
Almost all the nasty things Trump has done appear to be flouting laws. Good thing he has indemnity.
