They dissolved the republican government before attempting secession thereby violating Article IV, Section 4. If they're to secede and form a new government, they're to keep the republican government in place until secession is complete, following Article IV, Section 1 in the process of seceding.
2) The people of Texas demanded a vote on secession. The people of Texas elected delegates to a constitutional convention (vote #2).
Not true. Some were kept out. That's what makes it a coup.
These delegates are the SOVERIEGN representatives of the people, empowered to alter or abolish their form of government at will.
Nope, they are bullies depriving the citizens of their republican government. They were not elected in free elections, nor due process elections. The governer himself knew this.
3) The governor of Texas (a public official) called the legislature into session hoping that the legislature (public officials) would refuse to recognize the validity of the constitutional delegates.
As they should've done according to Article IV, Section 4.
4) The legislature recognized the legality of constitutional delegates, and promptly voted (vote #3) to end the special session.
That was unconstitutional according to Article IV, Section 4.
5) The Sovereign delegates (see #2 above) elected by the people,...
Some were kept out making it moreso a coup.
...and recognized as duly elected by the legislature (see #1 above) convened.
Unconstitutionally according to Article IV, Section 4.
These delegates were NOT the legislature.
Thereby making it a coup and in violation of Article IV, Section 4.
Among them were several members of the Texas Supreme Court, including Chief Justice Oran Roberts, who presided over the convention.
Immaterial.
6) The delegates to the convention voted to secede (vote #4), and put the matter before the people.
They didn't have the power to do that seeing as how they were not elected by due process.
7) The people of Texas voted to secede (vote #5).
After the coup making it immaterial. Saddam got 100% of the vote also.
Re-read #4. Their elected representatives deferred to their elected delegates.
Unconstitutionally according to Article IV, Section 4.
The legislature did not object.
In violation of Article IV, Section 4.
Please post your documentation of a "coup".
You just proved a coup yourself. Some were kept out of the process further proving the coup. What about my Alec Baldwin example. Would you consider that legitimate?
When did they dissolve their "republican" government?
Not true. Some were kept out. That's what makes it a coup.
Felons can't vote in elections. Is that a "coup"?
They were not elected in free elections, nor due process elections.
And what Supreme Court arrived at that conclusion, and invalidated their elections?
As they should've done according to Article IV, Section 4.
Who invaded Texas, or where is the appliciation to the federal government from the legislature or governor?
That was unconstitutional according to Article IV, Section 4.

Proves it had the assent of the Chief Justice, and the people.

Who the heck is Alec Baldwin & why should I care? Was he a citizen of Texan? Where is any proof of anyone being denied a vote, or the decision of a Court invalidating the results?
