I put this in General Current Events and not Politics because I am not certain it's actually a real thing. Has anyone heard much about it?
Here's Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yes_California
Here's the "official" website: yescalifornia.org/
Here's a supposed leader of the movement making a complete ass of himself with Tucker Carlson: www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2017/08/01/calexit_proponent_to_tucker_carlson_were_exporting_middle_class_to_make_room_for_next_wave_of_immigrants.html
From the last:
After the guy says this, Carlson wonders if he's being "punked." I think it's just as fair to wonder if Carlson is doing the punking, by putting this fool on TV as a representative of this movement.
But maybe I'm wrong, maybe the movement is more than just a website and maybe this guy is legit.

"If everyone in the middle class is leaving, that's actually a good thing. We need these spots opened up for the new wave of immigrants to come up. It's what we do. We export our middle class to the United States. You guys should be thanking us for that," Singam said to a stunned Carlson.
"Not only that, when our middle class does move out to Texas and Colorado they are taking our values out to the United States. If you look at Texas, in fact, all the major cities Californians are going to they are turning blue. And soon enough Texas will be a blue state," Singam said.
