New York, New Jersey, Oregon...
My, my, you wind up with exactly what you wanted to leave.
The states haven’t petitions but groups within the states. I would think those petitioners need to petition the governor of their states and then the state governments would petition the Feds to secede.
Does anyone here know the procedure?
Let those states that wish to leave secede from the United States

I would be all in for a new federation as long as the new Constitution makes even a small display of liberalism a hanging offense.
Instead of the states seceding why not have counties secede? Like the electoral map showing all of the red counties......leave the highly populated areas that voted for O to fend for themselves!
By the way, in Tx we are on our own electrical grid, have plenty of food, we have ports, and we are armed....just sayin!!!
People in TN want to secede ???
News to me...
This is how it happened during the “troubles’ AKA the Revolutionary War..
My family in PA were some of the last to know...
They didnt know there was a petition...
They lost their house and land...
and their country..
Well Im not leaving this time...
You leave if you want to...
But when you decide to come back...
I’ll leave the light on...
It’s a two-step process. First, we need to get the idea of peaceful secession on the national agenda. In short, we need to make it okay to talk about peaceful secession. As it is, one can’t really discuss the merits without all sorts of instinctive fear and shouts of recriminations unless we first convince people it’s okay to have a rational discussion about it. So, I say we who would like to have this discussion cut out all the emotion and really focus on “hey, we just want to talk about the possibility of peacefully breaking up.” I think that we should make it clear that we’re committed to zero violence and that if we can’t convince the other side after honest discussions we’ll stand down. What could possibly be more reasonable? If we can’t talk about stuff in a democracy then do we really have a democracy? I think not. Let’s trust each other enough to have an honest discussion about it with zero strings attached. Let’s just get secession on the agenda. After that we can talk about the particulars.
