Monckton: It’s Time For ‘Texit’ — Texas Should Secede, Thatcher Advisor Says
Daily Caller ^ | 06/04/2016 | John Griffing

Posted on 06/04/2016 8:10:45 AM PDT by Paine in the Neck

This week, Monckton — former adviser to British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher — pushed for Texas independence in an exclusive interview with The Daily Caller.

In short, Monckton views Texas as a lifeboat. He believes that America is on the verge of being overrun with Islamic invaders which will be accompanied by “imminent” financial destruction.

Seems Obama is working at fever pitch to plant more destruction inside our borders.

From Revelation 12:12 :

"But woe to the earth and the sea because the devil has come down to you! He is filled with terrible anger, for he knows that he only has a little time!”

Should Texas reform it’s Republic, I will move to Texas and swear allegiance my Ancestors fought in first war for Texan Independence. And I will fight for it’s third should it come to that.

God bless Texas!

For God, Guns, and Liberty.

Deo Vindice

Texas is America’s last best hope. IF Hillary is elected, secession talk will become very serious. We will not give up our gun rights. We file against Obama’s damned executive orders constantly. What does your state do to keep the American way of life thriving?

>> It isnt like the government there is made up of fearless cowboys. Look how many times the Feds just rolls over them. Far too many of the big shots just think that a western hat and a Texas drawl is good enough to cover for their weakness.

> I don’t know why you felt the need to insult every Texas Freeper, but you just did.

How is that an insult?

Are you all in the state government?

State legislators and bureaucrats aren't rebels nowadays, wherever they live.

Voters really aren't either -- not a majority anyway.

That goes for Texas as much as it does for any other state.

“How is that an insult?”

For those who understand, no explanation is necessary. For those who don’t, no explanation is possible.

I imagine several of the surrounding states would follow her. Alabama would hopefully come along. We Alabamians certainly have a Texas outlook in many ways.

As a native Texan, sometimes I think this wouldn’t be a bad idea, because our government is so totally corrupted- but then there’s Donald, a brilliant AMERICAN businessman/CEO who loves America and GETS THINGS DONE.
It’s quite possible he’s our last hope to save this country.

He might not be able to get ‘the wall’ built, try as he might, but he will put the guards (armed) back on the border to help stop the tsunami of dangerous Mexican/S American/muslim criminal invaders. He WILL enforce our immigration laws.

He WILL stem the colonization of America by muslim ‘refugees’ that Obama continues to import by the thousands and distribute all across America AGAINST OUR WILL- before we become another Germany. COUNT ON IT.

Texas would need tariffs too. As an offset to unfair competition.

I would be surprised if any patriotic Texan took British advice on secession.

I don’t know. Some of the riff-raff in neighboring states say they want to come along with us.

I live in Texas and I agree with you. As we say in Texas all the political types who call for secession are all hat and no cattle. They have a chance to vote for sevess at the first of each legislative session but they always vote it down.

Never Give Up!
