Political-compass based map with a Navajo Nationwank. And everyone but the Navajo Nation is dystopian.
Green faction: Libertarian leftists. This includes everything from Hindu and Buddhist new age cult communes to areas run by raving bands of antifa thugs and vigilantes. The largest commune that they control is Seattle, although they've begun a terror insurgency in Vancouver. An eastern expansion area (the Jackson Hole Territory) is being cleansed of right-wing presence.
Red faction: Authoritarian leftists. Often more religious (either minorities or devout Irish/Italian/Polish Catholics) but also very urban, and currently under the throes of a Christian Socialist dictatorship. Vermont and Berkshire are granted autonomy due to its left-libertarian tradition and act as a den of smugglers.
Blue faction: Authoritarian rightists. The majority of this is a Protestant theocracy, with a Gullah State and a Catholic Republic of Acadiana as vassals. Many blacks as well as free-minded whites have begun immigrating to Gullahland, which offers higher wages and freedom from the Army of Jesus. Incidentally, a black Muslim community has been able to emerge by presenting themselves as "the true unitarian Christians, followers of the message of Jesus (Isa), Moses (Musa), Mary (Maryam), and the Desert Prophet (Muhammad)"; American Christianity loves its multitude of sects as long as they kneel before Supply-Side Jesus.
Yellow faction: Libertarian rightists. The western part is a federation of rich but socially liberal Hollywood entertainers, Silicon Valley cyberpunks, and old-school Mormons - Cliven Bundy is currently the Primus Inter Pares of the Southern California and Rockies Republic. Even though it claims to be libertarian, that just means that the jackboot of tyranny is covered in corporate logos and its gulags actually charge inmates for their time in prison. Eastern (Texas) areas are more socially conservative, but even more fiercely rural, although there is the possibility that they'll join the neutrals sooner or later.
Silver: Centrists and non-ideologicals. The Midwestern Area is currently ruled by an iron-fisted but non-ideological strongman (think Vladimir Putin, who's willing to buddy with everyone from Jill Stein to Donald Trump to Puigdemont if they fulfill Russian interests) who is adeptly playing the different sides. He is allied with the Park City Junta (secular but insanely paranoid moderate forces in the Rockies) and the Navajo Nation (the most technologically advanced country in the Americas, if not the world, thanks to an agreement to take over what's left of Los Alamos and the long history of ties between New Mexico and cutting-edge science). The Navajos have pretty much the entirety of the US' nuclear arsenal under their control as President #46 ordered it all sent to New Mexico when he saw his country crumbling.
