They just killed someone in front of the eyes of the world and lied to our faces about it. If they want to declare martial law, they certainly won't care about a pretext for it. #RiseUpAmerica

This insanity needs to go both ways. If it did, it would be as smart as tariffs are. Stop payments to Blue states. Blue states stop payments to the federal government. Red states starve. Stable genius at work.

35 States: The Trump administration, through the Department of Justice (DOJ) in 2025, identified specific sanctuary jurisdictions (cities, counties, or states) across a total of 35 states plus D.C

I now officially hate them all. They are to blame for all of this fucking horror. All the carnage. All the chaos. All the stress. All the trauma. All the cruelty. All the brutality. All the fucking misery that is now a standard part of our daily lives. I fucking hate them all.

Fuck them all . If you sat home or voted for that fucking prick fuck you . Any time I hear one of them say a word about what is going on my standard statement is you voted for it . Running around with your dumb prick coffee cup, credit card, bumper sticker, flag fuck you .

If he continues down this path, he’s gonna find out the hard way that the federal government can’t operate when blue states stop paying their taxes

Remember when the Republican Party advocated for state's rights? Taking power away from a centralized federal government via their interpretation of the Constitution? Letting each state decide what is best for its residents? Guess not so much anymore, eh?

Currently it's not legal, and it's important to know that California secession movement was Russian propaganda back during the first Trump run. But if Trump destroys the Constitution, I assume seccession would no longer be impossible.

FUN FACT: The 10A anti-commandeering doctrine says the federal government cannot require states or municipalities to directly carry out or enforce federal enforcement policies, including immigration law. SCOTUS has upheld the doctrine as recently as 2018 against Trump. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Impeachable Act of the Day: refusing to disburse congressionally-mandated funding to cities and states that decline to do voluntarily what you've been unable to compel them to do via legislation (or more concisely, "attempting to illegally impose the arbitrary decrees of a king").

And you deserve representation, not just over the taxes or having a population larger than some.of the smaller states but simply put it's wrong to have Americans not represented in their govt, it's a moral obscenity

Elect Fascist Career Criminals, Get Crimes!!! Invoke Article One, Section 4 Of The Constitution And Prosecute Trump, His Entire Administration, All GOP Members Of Congress, And All SCOTUS Justices Who Voted For Presidential Immunity, For War Crimes, Espionage And Treason!!!

Translation: I need that money to buy or bomb Greenland & keep Venezuela so any blue city or state that has a history of immigrants successfully becoming Americans, protects its LGBTQ community and has less that a 90% Protestant population gets nothing.

are there any governors who are opposing ICE or are they all like Tim Walz where they lie and police help ICE 'cause they're all capitalists (fascists)? i keep seeing people say these things like their politicians are on their side when they very clearly are not and lie when you think they are.

Sadly, the states don't remit tax payments to the federal government. Employers remit tax payments directly to the IRS. I wish we paid our federal taxes to the states so states could withhold payments if the federal government pulls shit like this. Lawsuits are probably the route to go.

They'll be fine, just rush in an infinite debt ceiling hike (which honestly should be a thing anyway) and stop talking about the debt.

Blue states cant stop paying federal taxes. Its thru employers. You know what they COULD DO? Increase the corp tax rate for billionaire corporations in their state to offset the difference. If corporations didnt want to take damage in this fight, they shouldn't have went & bought the government.

I gave voluntary withholding from my social security. I want to change it to zero but I’m too afraid to do it. I fear I won’t see a check at all the next month if I try to do anything.

So in other words, the country (He hasn’t seen the Statue of Liberty has he?) Detroiters applauding …guess they missed all the times he referred to Detroit as a place of fraud, crime, drug dealing and addicts…

Look around, Folks. The fkn trump pigs declared war against every American that is NOT them a year ago. Stand tall. Get ready. This is OUR country, not “theirs alone”. The Founders expected no less.

Welp so much for blue states paying federal taxes. Good thing the federal government gets most of their funding from those rich red states…

Can someone throw Trump and his admin into Boston harbor? Time to cut them off. If I don’t get a Congress to work on my behalf, I’m not paying taxes for rich people. This isn’t the deal America signed up for.

New Yorker here and I have had it with this shit. I know it would be a logistical nightmare, but if we blue states seceded we could stand back and watch this idiot and his regime shrivel up and wither away without our state's money.

I say to people that grumble about living in California because their originally from someplace else, "you go right ahead and move home to your welfare state, California has enough people and a huge economy so we don't mind supporting you"... and that usually shuts them right up... 😈

OK, well, we know when we aren't wanted. Fine. Let's get out of this violent, dysfunctional marriage and begin the process of a formal, peaceful divorce. It's long past time to go.

250 years and everything old is new again. The Declaration of Independence condemns tyrants as unfit rulers, stating, "A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people,"

Sanctuary States: California Colorado Connecticut Illinois Massachusetts New Jersey New York Oregon Rhode Island Utah Vermont Washington Plus 19 states with sanctuary cities, including NY & PA. Good luck with that when people stop paying their taxes, Trump!

Fine. Two can play this game. Starting February 1, I will refused to pay any federal taxes as I live in a state that has sanctuary cities. I’ll pay state and local taxes, and then file a motion to reclaim taxes I had taken out of payroll.
