Texas secession #TEXIT

[TheTexan]

Lieutenant Colonel Allen West, Chairman of the Republican Party of Texas, took on the issue of a TEXIT referendum on the Chris Salcedo Show and expressed his support for the vote.

In the lead up to West’s remarks, Salcedo mentioned that there are several Democrat-led initiatives to add states to the union. Salcedo wanted West’s take on the TNM’s current push for putting the issue of Texas independence on the ballot.

West stated that while he has previously said that Texas should remain in the union, he understands why more Texans are ready to see Texas reassert its status as an independent.

“The people here in Texas have a right to voice their opinions on a critical issue that they’re facing right now,” West commented.

He went on to explain HB 1359, the Texas Independence Referendum Act and reinforced the case that the TNM’s been making that it should be up to the people to decide. Citing the Texas Constitution, he made it clear that issues of this magnitude belong in the hands of the people and not just the elected class.

“I don’t understand why anyone would feel that they need to prevent people from having a voice in something that is part of the Texas Constitution… You cannot prevent the people from having a voice.”

Thanks for bring this to my attention. He is now on the list.

When I spoke to LTC West Monday evening, he was still intent on saving the USA.

[Anti Globalist]

Every red state in the country needs to adopt similar measures now.

Indeed. But I am glad that he agrees we have a right to take it to a vote.

And he should. It has priority over other things. Such as whether or not im in 100% agreement with him.

Was he supporter or part of 'Cowboys for Trump' group by any chance that made headlines during recent DC riot?

In any case, seems like a jesture to grab some attention amid many attention seeking MAGA remnants.
Following "leaders" like these (Neocon Allen West:Iraq Pullout Leaves “Clear Pathway” For "The Potential Demise” Of Israel) is another reason GOP keeps sinking deeper in a sea of disallusionment and confusion.

There need to be simultaneous referendum votes in a number of counties in four other present-day states. The Republic of Texas extended to Pueblo, Colorado.

I really hate to dash @TheTexan's hopes, but CNN says TEXIT is a no go.

Gosh darnit, you're right. CNN says Texas isn't allowed to do that.

Back to the drawing board I guess.

So let me see if I understand. Texas supposedly has the balls to secede from the union but not to impeach a Dallas judge who's allowing a sick "child psychologist" mom to force transition a boy against his and his father's wishes and is making the dad pay for the counseling?

A) Priorities?

B) Is Texas going to cut Dallas out of the Republic Of Texas? (A jury went along with this madness as well)

Yes. Dallas is a Leftist $#@!hole

Bring back city-states.

Lead the way, Texas. We don't deserve you.

The Texas GOP concluded their state convention in Houston today and per reports...


There are now platform planks that effectively call for a state wide vote for Texas to reassert itself as an independent nation and otherwise call for state sovereignty due to federally mandated legislation that infringes upon the 10th Amendment.


The Texas National Movement (TNM) is the force behind this: https://tnm.me/
Their Texas independent booth was quite popular at the convention.

Daniel Miller is the TNM president, he wrote the definitive book on the subject "Texit: Why and How Texas Will Leave The Union"

I was able to meet and talk with Daniel last night, very sharp and on-point. From earlier this year: Daniel Miller- Texas Lieutenant Governor campaign:

$#@! yes.

This is the way.

[Anti Globalist]

Way to go Texas. Now lets hope this reignites Calexit and causes a spark that will spread to other states.

Lead on, good sir!

Yes, exactly!

[ammodotcom]

I wish Texas would. I'd love to see the media spin it that Texans are all awful horrible people and we absolutely need them to stay in our country.

The media already does spin that Texans are awful people.

California won't leave if a dem is president. Best you can hope for is that republicans gain a supermajority, and democrats decide to leave, and HOPEFULLY the Republicans won't be stupid enough to bring the democrats back next time.

I still think we should try kicking states out of the union over secession next time. Secession was tried and failed and now has a bad reputation. But kicking someone out has never been done before in the USA. Just call it 'granting them independence' so it doesn't sound so bad.

Not a bad idea.
