    I really think that’s part of the plan. If all the smart libruls leave then they can guarantee their future electoral victories. It’s the same with the anti-trans and abortion legislation in backwater states. Make life miserable for those affected, they leave to greener pastures, Repubs lock down their states for another generation.

        Yet another reason why overseas citizens should get to have a shared representative in Congress.

        My “rep” in WA State is hardly going to spend effort on non-resident issues.

      Yeah, they don’t really seem overly concerned with maintaining electoral majorites. Or the vote. Or the rule of law. Or the Constitution, etc…

      Freedom of travel is a constitutional right, BTW. There is no need for internal passport, unlike Russia… whom they admire and want to emulate…
