What do you call it when you throw a nation when you throw a state out of the union it’s not annexed. It’s discharged. It’s thrown out. We should reverse annex California. Make it a separate country. Put a border 50 feet around it. 50 feet high around the entire separated and making a separate country that way, we would eliminate 54 house seat seatsOK or we could take them back to proportionately and we wouldn’t have all these ridiculous liberals in our elections they’re not really liberals they’re communist. It could become the communist state it could become the people’s public of California a communist country.

Can you stop telling people that they are being lied to?! NO ONE IS LYING TO ANYONE. That's clickbait, and you know it. It also is corrosive since you're telling people not to believe anything. And honestly, maybe you're lying. Why should I believe someone I've never heard of, never met, never seen, is actually telling me the truth? I mean, who the heck are you?

Alaska is on the same continent as the rest of the United States. It is just not part of the contiguous United States. Learn the difference.

I really want to see that ball of twine... I have always avoided traveling to America because it seems lawless and allows normal people to have guns when normal people prove everyday that they simply can't be trusted with guns. Farmers, Soldiers and specialised police depts are the only exceptions... However it might be worth the risk to see that ball of twine,I doubt my girl will agree.... We will see.

Fact 35 - you are mistaken about there being no taxes on cigarettes in Oregon - cigarettes are heavily taxed, and alcohol is government restricted in other ways. Any beer/wine over an ABV threshold and all liquor is required to be sold at a state-run liquor store.

Hey, there are more than just 4 directions. If you include the other 12 directions (NNE, NE, ENE, etc.) there are 16 directions. However, one can further argue there are 360 directions, based on degrees. But then the number of directions becomes unmanageable if you include minutes, seconds, and decimals of a second.

Anyway, if you simply drive NORTHEAST from Stamford, you do not end up in New York. You end up in Connecticut. But if you kept going in that direction - around the world, you'd end up coming back into Stamford, after going through... NEW YORK CITY!!
