Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the status of Calexit in California and how California is teeming with secession movements, some long-standing and some very recent, inspired by the deteriorating way of life in the Golden State. Is California due to break up on multiple fronts? What dangers does the rapid deterioration of the coastal cities portend for the rest of the state domestically? Is secession the only real approach to rebuilding California from the failed state it has become?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss multiple stories which seem to all point to the reality that the National Divorce phenomenon is fast approaching in Canada. What does Justin Trudeau’s threat against Saskatchewan premier Scott Moe say about tensions between Ottawa and Saskatchewan? What is the real thrust of Danielle Smith’s recent moves legally and politically in Alberta and how is Trudeau’s response further fracturing the relationship between Ottawa and Alberta? What does the recent surge in popularity and rise in separatist rhetoric from Quebec’s leading separatist party, the Parti Quebecois, mean for Quebec’s prospects for secession in the near-future?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss two contrasting proposals for secession from New England and the importance of practicality in proposing one’s plans. Why is it so important for secession activists to do their homework and put forward a practical plan for both what their goal is and how to accomplish it?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the unfolding situation in the Central African nation of Nigeria where it looks like a Davos program has backfired very badly and could instead lead to a breakup of the country and a long overdue correction of Elitist malfeasance from the colonial era.

Trying to undermine the efforts of Staten Island to secede from New York City and form its own city, a council member from Brooklyn has commissioned a study which he now uses as proof the Staten Island could not succeed on its own because it cannot support a socialist government. Why is that completely ridiculous? https://keepgovlocal.substack.com/p/secession-only-for-socialists
This piece from the Acton Institute speaks very much to our views here at "On This Terrestrial Ball" on what the relationship should be between family and the workplace. Here we always says that "Family Comes First". That means occasionally we will have gaps in our publication schedule when we need to tend to matters which affect family. However we are still committed to spreading the word on the causes which are important to the everyday people so that EVERYONE will be able to put family first in the not-too-distant future and it is why we value your support so much! Be a rebel, raise a family and show & tell the family how much you love them! https://rlo.acton.org/archives/124383-your-job-is-not-your-family.html
The always gracious Lew Rockwell consented to publish another piece of ours concerning how a recent current event shows us once again that it is foolish to put faith in politicians and that only we ourselves can take back our own governance and restore our freedoms. Secession is the answer to our problems! https://www.lewrockwell.com/2024/05/no_author/put-not-your-trust-in-speakers/
