“The Greater Idaho movement” :data-laughing:

Mike McCarter, center, has galvanized a coalition of 8 counties to secede from Oregon, moving into Idaho, where they would find more amenable politics.Courtesy of Greater Idaho, greateridaho.org.

The Greater Idaho movement seeks to redraw state boundaries so rural Oregon can join Idaho.

Idaho’s House voted in favor of exploring the move after 11 Oregon counties did the same.

Moving the state boundary would require the approval of Oregon, Idaho, and the U.S. Congress.

The Greater Idaho movement — a conservative effort to have eastern Oregon secede from the blue state and join Idaho — got a major nod of support last week from lawmakers in the red state.

I don’t expect it to work but they’re trying almost everything they can legally and illegally to try and deliver results to their base’s perceived interests. We all know they’re full of shit but Dems don’t even try one quarter as hard to fuck over Reps

Eh. They’re making a lot of mouth noises and leading their local communities around by the nose. In another two years, they’ll be screaming about how the mean old Idaho Supreme Court is full of Woke Transgender Millennials who have prevented them from seizing every Waffle House west of Hwy 201. They’ll raise a bunch of money on this shit, do nothing, wait for people to get incredibly mad, and then act shocked when some random family of vacationers gets lynched over the hysteria.
