Maybe the Blue states ought to lower tax remittances to the federal government and just save it for their own needs #BlueStateUnion #NoKingsDay
To further the analogy, if there are rust agents eroding it from within, it should be severed from the armor before it compromises the entire thing. Afterwards the severed part can be reconstructed and patched.

The Federal government is effectively a mob at this point. Solution? #DefundtheFed and invest in local & state governments. Slowly reinvest in and reconstruct a federated government that proportionally represents economies of scale. Preserve individual rights.
#BlueStateUnion
Senator Murphy, you are preaching to the choir. We don't need anymore evidence of ICE's cruelty. We need action.
Perhaps it's time to federate with aligned states to defund the Federal government in favor of local, cooperative tax bases that could better appropriate resources.

We ready for #BlueStateUnion yet? ๐บ๐ธ
The latest Epstein drop is changing my circuitry. Gonna have to start being more civilly antagonistic towards elected officials.
#BlueStateUnion ๐บ๐ธ
We can do that domestically too. #BlueStateUnion
#DefundTheFed and these agents' salaries immediately.
#BlueStateUnion ๐บ๐ธ
Am I hearing #BlueStateUnion? Louder for the skeptical liberals, @jimmcgovernma.bsky.social ๐ค
Defund the Fed and Ice. Let MAGAts infest the Red States in whatever authoritarian apocalypse they create for themselves.

Blue States should start negotiating with airlines to mutually pay for Air Traffic Controller salaries as Federal funding erodes.
#BlueStateUnion
Federal funding cuts by congressional district representation.
#BlueStateUnion etc. etc. ๐ฎโ๐จ

MAGAs live on the edge of E.WA because, WA provides better resources (e.g., education, SPED programs), infrastructure, high paying Union jobs, & healthcare, while MAGAs constantly bitch and moan about liberals/Seattle - move to freaking Idaho. I am so tired of it.
It baffles me that we haven't isolated the foot-shooting to them. Defund the Fed, let Blue states form tax treaties and Red states can experience the outcomes of their policy decisions ๐ #BlueStateUnion

Yes. Start using the power of the purse as intended. Scale back Federal spending. Let Blue states create economies of scale and stop subsidizing Red states. Enough. #BlueStateUnion
The beginnings of a #BlueStateUnion ๐ฅน๐
Looks like a #BlueStateUnion is brewing out West. Love to see it.
By all means, please follow up by:
- defunding the Fed of the proportional expenditures
- charge negligent Red States for outputs of this Blue State funded coalition

Walk into the negotiating room purse first ๐ถ

#BlueStateUnion
Congress should at least try defunding the dictatorship at this point.
#BlueStateUnion
#DefundTheFed
I think we should try the defund-the-Fed strategy.
Let states pay for the services they want and they can cooperate to create economies of scale as they see fit.
People will enjoy the outcomes generated by local policies and can move if they don't like the results.
#BlueStateUnion
Oh this #StuntQueen is starting to say it out loud!
Let me know if I can be of service ๐

Please just defund the Fed already. Keep the MVP federated services working and let regional economies govern themselves. Poor governance would stop being subsidized and those citizens could either move or elect new leaders #BlueStateUnion
Defund the Fed so that we stop paying for this. #BlueStateUnion
1. Decrease Fed tax receipts by $9B
2. Apportion contributions back to states
3. #BlueStateUnion reallocates existing tax receipts or raises taxes to cover shortfall
4. Reinstitute programming
5. Figure if/how MAGAts get access or not
Ding ding ding. Blue States need to defund the corresponding amount from the Fed. (Hint: it'll be a net gain for the #BlueStateUnion). Vulnerable populations in Red States, let's help you #GetOut.
#BlueStateUnion finally? ๐ฅน
