    Depends, do you think the ethnonationalist psychos in Texas are more reasonable than post-soviet bureaucrats? Similarly, would the limp-wristed dems who seek to heal the divide at all costs be willing to actually do anything if they said no?

      I’m just assuming that since the facility is managed by the Department of Energy, that would settle any debate over whose nukes they are.

      Like, going down the rabbit hole of speculative History, there’s no way the US would let a breakaway nation have nukes. Like, that’s an existential threat. Cuban missile crisis level existential threat

          Lmao I forgot about that one. Maybe the US takes advantage of them not knowing what the DOE controls (the nukes) and just says “oh yeah the DOE needs to clean out their offices and storage facilities. Don’t mind us.”
