Did you hear that Gov. Abbott has placed a moratorium on sending our natural gas to other states? He did that the other day.

Texas has a bunch of internal problems to solve:

—The Mexican border—must be closed, but lots of the elites in Texas benefit from the labor of illegal aliens as well as legal trade

—The cities—large enclaves of leftists in most of them, including many universities

—The media—leftist propagandists

—Rising taxes and cost of living—partially due to education costs of previous illegal aliens (with more on the way) and partially due to a bloated state bureaucracy

—Green energy—total nightmare, threatens electrical grid

Secession by itself solves none of those problems.

No, I was not aware of that.

I see Texas has about 15,000 wind turbines and produces one-quarter of all U.S. electricity from wind. Sounds like a big commitment.
