Leaders of the Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM) — which openly calls for the Lone Star State to secede from the United States and become an independent nation again — appear to have surpassed the threshold to put a secession ballot initiative on the 2024 Republican primary ballot this March.Newsweek…
If that was ever actually was successful I would be out of the state the following week and enlisting in the us air force the next.
I’d happily help kill the crazies I’m surrounded by here. It’s funny in every major city they’re totally outnumbered here though, if it wasn’t so gerrymandered and people voted in every election texas would finally turn blue.
Good timing, right before the election. Maybe Trump can be their president.
Texans love to talk about leaving the Union, but they get really upset if you say you agree.
i really hope they make it. this would be very entertaining. theres nothing more fun than reminding texas they already lost once and a second take wont go any better.
they cant even keep their electrical grid goin and they are swimmming in oil, wind and fucking sun.
It would be absolutely hilarious if we built a wall around Texas.
Go on! Get!
Honest question, do we actually need Texas for anything? I see it as a win win
No, but they sure need the US federal government.
Yes and no, Texas is actually one of the few red states that contribute more in taxes than they take in from federal programs.
Now, that surplus is present for a lot of reasons, some of which is the refusal to take part in some programs that would actually help, and some of which is due to fossil fuel deposits.
I was talking more about how they like to take in federal aid after any disaster, rely on blaming the federal government in order to garner votes, etc.
The only thing they can do is make oil and gas more expensive, no one is going to like that, no even America.
That’s okay. If they secede, the US government can simply resort to blunt force like we often do when oil is involved. I don’t see The Republic of Texas joining OPEC.
Don’t let the door hit you on the way out.
same as everywhere else this happens, there are a few insane assholes who want to tell everyone else how to live, and get fat doing it
