No more nothing.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s just a thumb in the eye of Lefty.\u00a0 Really it has more to do with forcing corporations to stop hiring illegal aliens and eliminating woke culture from the schools and colleges and forcing the blue cities to maintain law and order.\u00a0 Maybe it means coordinating things like road building and infrastructure projects that the federal government has reneged on and providing alternatives to some of the federal agencies that are needed but which have become corrupt.<\/p>\n<p>They could license doctors, lawyers and engineers to take the place of the AMA, ABA and other credentialing organizations that have gone woke.\u00a0 Basically they would begin the process of bypassing a lot of the federal bureaucracy that has been weaponized against the Red States.<\/p>\n<p>And one of the biggest priorities would be a coordination on energy projects and policies.\u00a0 The first item in the legislative agenda would be the dumping of all green programs and the wholehearted embrace of intelligent energy utilization.\u00a0 Licensing nuclear power plants and the development of new energy sources should be strongly encouraged.<\/p>\n<p>And in terms of membership, if this cooperation got going, the benefits of this kind of arrangement might lure a few more states along just because of the economic benefits it would provide.\u00a0 I could imagine Kansas, Kentucky and Louisiana coming aboard and possibly several others.<\/p>\n<p>And all of this could be accomplished without any radical steps taken to distance the red and blue states.\u00a0 By having the states negotiate the common legislative agenda it will be possible to optimize their ability to neutralize the federal agenda and prevent the feds from finding any weak links when they go after red state police forces and other vulnerable targets.<\/p>\n<p>And most importantly, everything must be done in a way that points to the unconstitutionality of the federal laws and policies that this council is working to neutralize.\u00a0 It must be clear that powers that the states are endowed with in the Constitution are the basis of the actions that these states are taking.\u00a0 That in fact they are only protecting these rights against the predations of a runaway and unconstitutional federal bureaucracy that has as its object the destruction of states rights and the subjection of American citizens to an illegal alienation of their fundamental rights as Americans.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that these states aren\u2019t already thinking in these terms highlights the problem we are dealing with.\u00a0 Americans have for generations believed that our government was by and large set up in a way that promoted the freedoms and prosperity that we have come to expect.\u00a0 The truth is that those freedoms have been swept away by federal agencies that have aligned with the authoritarian left.\u00a0 And by means of election fraud we can no longer expect the federal government to be accountable to the legitimate citizens of this country.\u00a0 It\u2019s time that those states that have managed to hold onto a semblance of sanity to combine their efforts and their resources to resist the destruction of the American way of life.<\/p>\n<p>The clock is ticking.\u00a0 Hang together or hang separately.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are twenty-two US states that have a Republican governor along with a legislature that has a Republican majority in both houses.
