Also I ain't super happy about Megyn Kelly leaving Fox because while she's not someone I consider a nice person, she was practically the only popular voice on FOX who ever willing to criticize the GOP.
The easy answer is to treat Fox like the faux journalism that it is and just not watch them at all.
No see the problem is people who only watch Fox. This won't help that.

Cool, cool. They can still utterly ruin your, my, and their own lives. I ain't saying it should be a priority of folks but the stakes are too high to not try all avenues possible for change.
I think California is just looking for every available way to flip the bird to the incoming adminstration.
They really want to be the city on the hill, beset by the Trumpian hordes.
What's sad is that Calexit means that the state inmediatly gets a visit from the Chinese Navy looking to annex a new colony.
States can't leave the union. Period.
The notion of that always bothered me from a legal perspective, despite being a fierce anti-Confederate myself. You'd figure if a majority of state delegations voted to allow a state to leave, then that would constitute mutual consent or something. I could easily see conservatives being behind that in theory, on the mistaken assumption that the blue states are the takers, so if a blue state wanted out a majority of state delegations could be pushed to approve.
I get that the legal standard doesn't exist for that, but it should. No union should be binding in perpetuity since all government comes from consent, even if a small-l liberal view of secessionism goes to dangerous places (whether for the ulterior motives of secessionists or just to prevent large, functional states from becoming a nest of small, weak countries that have less of an ability to provide for their citizens).
"states can't leave the union" is misleading
States can't leave the union without the consent of 3/4ths of the states.
Dude: can you imagine if new york seceded, and then refused to grant trump entry?
If New York could secede in the next 3 weeks, Trump would not be a natural born US citizen and would be ineligible for the Presidency. Everyone wins!.

So a thread popped up on my FB yesterday about the fact that the Clintons are attending the inauguration. The consensus was that it was 'disgusting' and 'traitorous' that she was attending.
I made an attempt to convince them that despite the awful circumstances, a peaceful and gracious transition was important. They weren't having it. I am not sure what they think it would accomplish for her to refuse attendance.
There's no plan, there's no race to be run

I think its normalizing him for any president to show up. I get that the Republicans might want to, but Carter and the Clintons should stay the hell away.
It's part of operating by the old rules where we think trust and respect go both ways.

One state leaving damages all the states with the repercussion. It's to prevent some tiny state like Vermont from destabilizing a nation of hundreds of millions because of the short sighted extremism at the state capital.
States can 100% leave, you would "just" need a constitutional amendment to do it

In child-rearing, you must model the behavior you want the toddler to imitate. Since Trump doesn't have much book-learning, this is how he learns to be president, and more importantly, how to lose an election (I hope.)

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement after introducing the bipartisan Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 (H.R. 38) with 58 original cosponsors:
“Our Second Amendment right doesn’t disappear when we cross state lines, and this legislation guarantees that. The Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act of 2017 is a common sense solution to a problem too many Americans face. It will provide law-abiding citizens the right to conceal carry and travel freely between states without worrying about conflicting state codes or onerous civil suits. As a member of President-elect Trump’s Second Amendment Coalition, I look forward to working with my colleagues and the administration to get this legislation across the finish line.”
Team Trump getting started up with their own legislation priorities.

As someone who lives in Arizona...if I am understanding this right it would mean anyone who lives in a concealed carry state (Alaska, Vermont, Arizona) would be able to conceal carry in any state as long as they have their driver's license.
I mean sure oppose it because if you give an inch they'll take a mile, but concealed carry is really not a big deal.
The issue isn't concealed carry. The issue is that they're doing the same thing they did to credit cards - kneecapping local regulations by forcing states to have to accept the lowest common denominator.

This confuses me. How can the federal government force a state to obey another states laws? I can see how they could pass a federal concealed carry law, and say "This now applies", but even that is challenging since the state governments aren't saying that something illegal is legal, but that something legal elsewhere is illegal here. Going beyond federal regulations is fully within the purview of state governments.
And again, I just do not think California and other blue states (where everyone who cares about gun control actually lives) will accept this. If it went through, I could see California banning holsters. Or coats. Or any gun with rifling.

Read up on what happened with credit cards - the feds said that the card issuer's home state laws would apply.
Hence why every credit card comes out of either Delaware or South Dakota.

So they would try and make the gun manufacturers home state laws apply? Because if they try and say, "Oh, the home state laws on your drivers license apply" and then try and let everyone pretend to be from Louisiana then that's totally something that California could crack down on since it has tax implications. And voting implications.
It just doesn't seem to work as well with guns, which are owned by people, than with Credit cards which are owned by banks.
If the credit card solution is their aim, then the current system people get out-of-state CCW licenses (because many, like Utah's, are accepted in many states), but you would still have to prove that you hold a CCW in some state, unless there's a state that has no licensing whatsoever, then you would have to prove that you're a resident of that state to have that rule apply.
