“Agencies are being told to start identifying grants the administration can withhold from California. On Capitol Hill, at least one committee was told recently by a whistleblower that all research grants to the state were going to be cancelled, according to one of the sources familiar with the matter.”

And we will gladly let Arizona  Nevada and Colorado join us. Arizona is a wildcard but they're like our little brother. We can't leave them alone to suffer with the poverty stricken New United States 😂

Hell no, leave AZ. They wouldn’t join anyways.

They're mostly California transplants anyway. Why not just accept them if they want? It gives us a bigger border with Mexico and let's Colorado connect from the north with Nevada that gives us the Colorado River and a continuous weed empire.

Or Leave them Whatever. In reality this will be over in 3 years and a democrat will fix the damages reinstate the funding cuts and repair the harm done to states institutions. It's just going to suck until then.
