re: What’s the legal landscape for states breaking up, joining other states, reforming?

Article 4, section 3 of the Federal Constitution provides that "no new state shall be formed or erected within the jurisdiction of any other state; nor any state be formed by the junction of two or more states, or parts of states, without the consent of the legislature of the states concerned, as well as of the congress."
This language doesn't cover what is being discussed. Nobody is talking about forming a state...only that counties within the jursidiction of one state that find they have more in common with a neighboring one can chose to join their neighbor.

You mentioned the formation of West Virginia in an earlier post. What I posted was the legal requirement for that to happen. That requirement in the case of West Virginia wasn't met legally, but that is a different story.

Irrelevant. The water they get is from liberal states. The west is going w the libtards.
It is the left who fights California receiving that water
No such thing as liberal states
There are only liberal cities
The cities would be the first places to collapse once the water And food supplies are cut off

Lol. You are like the sole juror that says... I don’t know..... he just doesn’t look like he could do such a thing! You are shown you are wrong... but “I just don’t buhleave it”.
And give us a quick engineering lesson on how you damn up the Mississippi and not displace populations.

We can damn and divert up in Minny, wis and Illinois.
What state are you going to cross the river and attach the other side of this dam to? That will significantly diminish the flow of the river? And where will this diverted water ultimately end up flowing anyway?

Not constitutional, so West Virginia is illegitimate.
