They need to understand that we know who holds the keys, and that we want action in order to save our country!

Blue states, particularly California, are in a unique position to fight back with a lot of leverage due to our economy (4th largest economy in the world).

The people who control the leverage are NOT used to the public calling them, let alone demanding anything from them. We need to change that.

One of, if not the only thing we have left to save our democracy, is the Power of the People and the Power of Individual States. The crux of a soft secession is individual state's non-cooperation with the federal government's unconstitutional demands.
