Time for Texas to begin the process of seceding while they

still have a reign over their own state politics.

Lol. Wait til the fed funding is cut. Abbott will have no choice but to submit.

Abbott-and at least one other Texas gov-have told the fed to shove its funding before-this won’t be the 1st time-happened during the scamdemic, and before over school issues-it is possible when a state actually keeps a little money and isn’t permanently attached to the fed’s funding tits, so they can make their own choices...

Anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who cuts wire at the border should be arrested.

See today’s (1/24/24) letter from Gov Abbott; note last sentence

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/4212598/posts

“The Texas National Guard, the Texas Department of Public Safety, and other Texas personnel are acting on that authority, as well as state law, to secure the Texas border.”

And these posts about that phrase “other Texas personnel”:

Check out the Articles of Ratification submitted by the respective states to the Constitutional Convention. By accepting these terms, they were extended to ALL the states.
The Constitution was never intended to be a suicide pact.

I guess we’ll see. Don’t get me wrong. I’m proud of TX for doing this. I truly hope they stand firm.
