When Frank Eathorne, Wyoming’s Republican Party chairman, mentioned “secession” during a conversation on Steve Bannon’s podcast, it set off a flurry of tweets and ribbing at the Cowboy State’s expense over the weekend.
On Friday, Eathorne went on Bannon’s podcast, “War Room Pandemic,” which Youtube banned a few weeks ago, to talk about Wyoming GOP Congresswoman Liz Cheney’s vote in favor of impeaching President Donald Trump.
The conversation veered into talk of secession.
“We are straight-talking, focused on the global scene, but we’re also focused at home. Many Western states have the ability to be self-reliant, and we’re keeping eyes on Texas, too, and their consideration of possible secession,” Eathorne said, according to the Casper Star Tribune.

A voluntary separation program initiated by Sweetwater County School District No. 2 has drawn some interest from employees.
During an update last week, Jason Fuss, director of human resources for the district, said 19 employees have applied for the program. That number consists 11 certified professional staff, seven support staff and one administrator. Fuss said those applications can be withdrawn, but if everyone who has applied follows through with the agreement, the program would cost the district approximately $700,000, but would save between $1 million and $1.5 million.
