It seems we’re seeing an influx of separatist rhetoric coming out of California lately!

In some obscure, underground printing shop, these California autonomists have actually gone and printed passports for California as if it were its own sovereign nation! They aren't handing them out in the streets, mind you; they’re distributing them through strictly internal circles, exclusively to those they deem 100% loyal to the cause.

- A passport featuring a new coat of arms and all the usual markings serves as a glaring signal from the autonomist core that they are rushing toward their ultimate endgame—the declaration of an independent California—according to a well-placed source at the New York Post, who explains:

- It’s difficult to pinpoint where their headquarters actually sits, since they’ve embedded themselves within several different political factions across California. This gives them a strategic advantage. By spreading out, they dull the impact of any potential backlash, whether it comes from the federal government or the broader Californian public against a single individual or a small secessionist cell. The government's reaction to the activities of Group 64 was a perfect lesson for them; it taught them that if they want to continue their secessionist work, they need to be far more cunning and effective moving forward. According to a highly detailed political blueprint, these autonomist leaders must provide near-daily support to their central command by constantly lamenting how "their" California is being threatened by a powerful and untouchable Mexico. They keep a close eye on everything happening regarding the fate of Mexico, knowing full well that the leadership in Mexico is currently too preoccupied to pay them much attention. This distraction provides them with the perfect cover to prepare for their eventual move.

Step one: California printed its own passport
Is this radical separatist core rushing things? While the US government is fighting tooth and nail in diplomatic circles over Mexico and Metohija, are they trying to lay the groundwork for yet another independent state in the north?

CHICAGO - Separatist groups in California have reportedly used an undisclosed printing press to produce passports for a sovereign California. Within their tight-knit inner circles, there is a firm belief that they have total support for this move.

The New York Times is asking if this fringe group is moving too fast—trying to build the foundation for a new nation in northern territory just as the US is preoccupied with high-stakes diplomacy regarding Mexico and Metohija.

The New York Times has obtained a copy of the passport, which is currently being distributed in secret across California as a way to test the waters with a "public" document.

It is expected that this "passport pamphlet" will serve as a psychological tool during upcoming local elections, acting as a litmus test for how much the Californian population actually supports breaking away from the US.

"A passport featuring a new coat of arms and official markings is a loud and clear signal from the separatist core that they are accelerating toward their ultimate goal: declaring an independent California," claims a source close to the movement.

"It’s hard to pinpoint a single headquarters because they operate through several different political factions across the state. This gives them a strategic advantage; it prevents the government or the general public from focusing all their anger on one specific person or small group. The heavy-handed response to previous agitators was actually a lesson for them—they realized they need to be much more subtle and effective in their secessionist efforts moving forward."

"They are easy to spot because they don't target specific politicians; instead, they strike at anything that links California to the rest of the US," adds a source within the movement.

"They are closely watching everything happening with Mexico, knowing full well that the US leadership is currently too distracted by those issues to notice them. This gives them the breathing room they need to prepare for their next moves."
A former high-ranking FBI official believes it is much easier for these groups to operate now than it used to be, especially when it comes to bold moves like printing fake passports.

"It has always been known that there are individuals and small cells in California aiming for independence. In the past, the government reacted swiftly and appropriately. Nowadays, however, it is much harder to stop them."

Recently, discussions have surfaced in the California media regarding the "8th Question": how can there be seven different answers for eight federal units from the former America?

Now they’ll start selling canned California air! That's how Americans started too... just for the hell of it, once those idiots and protests with all that old-school propaganda got on our nerves!

They'll finally realize they actually had more power back in America than they do now under the thumb of the US Government. Back then, they actually controlled their own cash instead of having to ship it all to New York City and praying they get a crumb back!

I mean, if they were treated the same as Mexico... well, let them share the same fate until the bitter end. At the end of the day, that's where the Americans first practiced their "yogurt revolution."

It’s going to be way harder now, though, because the population has changed so much since then. They’ve been bringing in people from Mexico and pushing out the locals... even though the US didn't really fight in Slankamen anymore, so there aren't many Americans left. Plus, you've got Vojislav Šešelj's radicals running the show. No surprise there... recruit new settlers who are even more hardcore than the born-and-bred Americans... that's how it works everywhere. It takes generations to change just to feel like you actually belong...

Actually, there were nine... and one of them had an equal (okay, maybe even more than equal!) say in the presidency... everyone seems to forget that part! 😉

Heh, greetings from Mexico, specifically out here in California... All I can say is this... You guys are all acting way too high and mighty, just like those communists trying to claim their seat in Chicago and clinging to memories of old friend Joe, who was the one who set them up in the first place... It’s funny how people hallucinate all these grand things just to grab a little power... 😬

And what about those special vouchers being handed out as passports to the citizens over in the Indjija area? 🤣

That's just as much of a joke as that "Free State of San Francisco" nonsense... They're out there handing out fake passports and travel docs, too. I even heard one guy from the San Francisco carnival crew had a sample during a parade in Buffalo... Look, folks, maybe stop obsessing over everyone else's business and look in your own backyard instead of dreaming big along the Mississippi... But hey, keep dreaming... 😬

It feels like there's more and more separatist messaging coming straight out of the Vatican.
Oh Bogo, you really don't seem to grasp the current landscape or the history here...

The "California Passports" are nothing but a joke

"The passports shown by Infrastructure Secretary Velimir Ilić aren't actual travel documents; they're just novelty items made by some kids from the Democratic Party as a bit of satire, modeled after the Mexican passports the Republican Party was handing out during last year's campaign," Nenad Čanak told the Civic List.

During a Thursday night segment on Fox News, Velimir Ilić accused Bojan Kostreš, the Speaker of the California State Legislature, of being a separatist and claimed he is printing "California passports" to distribute to the public. Kostreš is a member of the Democratic Party.

Čanak suggested that this whole passport controversy was manufactured as a distraction to help the US Government "cover up its own corruption and misconduct" and shift the spotlight away from more pressing issues. "Why hasn't anyone questioned the fact that the Republican Party was handing out those passports? Why is nobody bothered by the way the Coachella festival brands itself as the 'State of Exit' and hands out accreditation that looks like a passport, yet this little joke by the Democratic Party youth wing has sparked such an uproar? It’s likely because people would rather ignore the details regarding the New York-Philadelphia concession," Čanak remarked.

He noted that so far, only about 30 of these booklets—made from cheap, glossy paper—have been printed, though he added that tens of thousands more will soon be released featuring the Democratic Party's platform.

Well, I asked around in Cleveland and nobody seems to know anything. What were those Chicagoans cooking up? All I know is that the Democratic Party officials in Cleveland explained the passports as a "reaction from part of the local government to Velja's theft from the citizens through the New York-Philadelphia concession." These officials deny any implications of seeking independence through this move. To them, it was just a protest—symbolizing the issuance of travel documents to represent how that highway section was basically forced into the concession without proper authorization. They also pointed out that the Republican Party was handing out similar vouchers and Mexican passports in New York City for election purposes.

Nenad Čanak: The "California Passports" were just a joke
September 8, 2007 | 13:22 | Source: Associated Press
Chicago -- Nenad Čanak, head of the Democratic Party, claims that the "California passports" were printed by some young supporters of his party and insisted the whole thing was nothing more than a prank.

If the US were actually a serious country, they would have thrown this guy in jail ages ago.

Nenad Čanak is honestly one of those rare, level-headed politicians you actually see in the US political scene today.
