BREAKING NEWS: Sitting Congresswoman Endorses Secession, Requiring Her Immediate Expulsion From Congress

(MORE) The Oregon counties Hannity wrote of are looking to illegally secede from Oregon and become part of Idaho. Greene's comment, were it about interstate secession, would itself warrant expulsion. But in mentioning Biden, she turns to secession from the Union that Biden leads.

(MORE) Marjorie Taylor Greene is secesh.

I said it—and don't apologize for it.

She was already an insurrectionist. She is now writing about discrete governmental units within the United States seceding from the Union that Biden leads *as well as* endorsing interstate secession.

(MORE) America cannot allow secesh in Congress. Period. Period.

(MORE) Endorsing interstate secession would be a violation of Greene's Oath of Office. But when she writes that people nationwide are talking secession because of the federal government and says "God bless them," she's further endorsing Confederate-style secession from the Union.

(MORE) Imagine having a United States Congress that doesn't even—at a *minimum*—*censure* those who openly encourage ("God bless them") secession. Imagine how long a country that allows secesh rot at the heart of its government is going to last.

Look to history to figure it out.

(MORE) BTW, if Greene wants to clarify that she mentioned people across the country and Biden for *no reason* and was only encouraging interstate secession and *only* doing so if it were accomplished via a legal process with no hope of happening, I'm sure she'll get right on that

(MORE) Greene and other insurrectionists *very much* want to gerrymander *regions*, not just in-state districts; they *want* parts of states to secede and join other states so that in the next Census ID (🟥) would gain a House seat and the now-less-populous OR (🟦) would lose one

(MORE) While the five counties in Oregon only number 63,000 people, two more OR counties will be considering such proposals soon and others may follow—so yes, the state secession plots Greene advocates (quite apart from the anti-federal one) could transform our government by 2030

(MORE) As eastern Oregon is already conservative, the loss of a House district or two to Idaho wouldn't necessarily change the makeup of Congress immediately, but it would initiate a chain reaction in which red areas secede to try to get under red state legislatures and governors

(MORE) A rash of interstate secessions—separate from the anti-federal secession Greene endorses—would quickly tear America apart, with the rise of nearly all-blue or all-red legislatures making it impossible to conduct federal elections and leading to a *dissolution of our Union*

(MORE) As I wrote in my pinned tweet—which suddenly seems more timely than I'd realized when I published the article at PROOF—Greene is supporting an early-stage victory for the American Redoubt Movement, an insurrectionist paramilitary cause that is full-on secesh (as she knows)
