It is the moral, ethical, and yes legally right for Democratic States and Cities to engage in Soft Secession by withholding federal taxes. This would not violate the Supremacy Clause, has immense precedent in US history, & the time to act is NOW.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96.

With full pay and benefits.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
