Having aligned myself with those who are looking for something beside the “red wave” to save me I’ve been considering what that something could be.
With ballot harvesting and other forms of electoral fraud rendering the Republicans incapable of capturing power in Washington I turn to the question of whether any of the Red States will attempt to organize amongst themselves to achieve some of their objectives.
What I would be looking for is whether states like Florida and Texas and several other of the safely conservative states start to plan together on policies that would amplify the results they can obtain individually. For instance, let’s look at immigration. At the least significant level we are already seeing Florida imitate Texas in bussing illegal immigrants to Blue States. Currently this is more of a gesture than a policy but look at the publicity it has garnered and look at the morale boost it provides.
But imagine if much more effective actions were planned and coordinated. Suppose these states began to combine their clout to coerce corporations into behaving as good citizens. Imagine if they cracked down on companies employing illegals. Imagine if they coordinated their policies with respect to buying school books only from book publishers who provided a clearly conservative option. What if they formed a syndicate and empowered it to dictate terms with tech companies? And how about if they pooled their law enforcement assets and went after some of the things that the feds have given up on; illegal aliens, drug cartels, inner city gangs, sex trafficking? They might achieve substantial results.
Let’s face it. The feds are employing selective enforcement of the law to punish the Red States. The ZMan discusses this policy of anarcho-tyranny. As an example the feds ignore things like a mob burning down a city and instead punish the guy trying to protect his life and property from the mob with a gun It’s up to the areas of the country still under control of normal people to protect themselves and come up with effective countermeasures to neutralize the sabotage that Biden’s criminal enterprise perpetrates against the American people every single day.
As I say, I am looking for signs that the states will begin to act both single-handedly and in concert with each other to make a stand against the damage Washington is doing. I am hopeful that there will be some action along these lines and others that I haven’t thought of.
But I am also aware that the federal government will fight against any actions like these tooth and nail. I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Justice Department threaten states and individuals like governors and legislators personally with lawsuits and even criminal prosecutions. Any effective actions by the states on these issues will powerfully undercut the damage caused by the selective enforcement of federal laws and policies. Biden, Obama and their cronies are aware that if the states get the upper hand, it won’t be long before resistance against many of these evil policies will take hold across the length and breadth of this country.
Imagine if states began ignoring Washington’s insane dictates on the environment, energy, law enforcement, education and all the ways the feds have harmfully interfered in the way people live their lives.
Why before you know it, it might start feeling like a free country again. Who knows, we might start being happy again.
Maybe “Red” sanctuary cities and states?
I think it would make sense for red states to take back their out of control cities any way they can.

Red states are addicted to federal money just like blue states. If the fed turns off the spigot to red states it might get their attention enough to change things.
It’s a choice, freedom or belonging to the ruling class.
It’s a two-way street… How about the states turning off the $$ pump that supplies the fed? We send more to fed than they “give” back to the state. And what they “give” always has strings attached…
