We also have a bunch of military bases. We could almost actually do this.

We'd probably want to bring OR and WA along for the ride

You'd be getting a lot more than OR and WA. If California goes, the Northeast goes with you.

I don't know that any of the Northeast governments have the balls to do this. I've been begging Maura for weeks at this point to do literally anything decisive. Instead when 100+ innocent 'collateral arrests ' happened in Boston, all we got from her was a tepid "I should have known you were coming."
