They do this all the time. Maybe Biden should call their bluff, execute his powers as Commander in Chief, and order the National Guard in Texas to turn on State Police.

As a Texan who wants nothing to do with these absolute fucking morons, but whose life is directly impacted by their asinine whims: please don't encourage them. I can't afford to leave yet.

I'm in the same situation. People seem to forget that just under half of the 30 million people here aren't conservative and don't want anything to with this

Always nice to know people are looking out for us, right?

Essentially telling a madman with hostages "yeah, do it, pussy. Bet you won't," just to see him reap the consequences, but conveniently forgetting state-wide consequences don't only affect the people you want them to affect.

Here's hoping it just turns out like the last time these jerkoffs talked about secession. Maybe, if we're lucky, we can finally get rid of Abbott. If we're really lucky, maybe his replacement won't be as psychotic, either!
