If Texas seceded, who would fight us to keep us in the union?

I’d move to Texas if they seceded, unless my state joined them.

But what’s the 21st century way? State legislatures voted for secession back in 1861, but I imagine people would expect a Brexit-style referendum today. Hard to imagine that would pass, but I was surprised at the result of Brexit, so who knows?

And I honestly doubt the Fed would go to war to keep states from leaving in 2021. Now after several years of “Progressive” control and getting the “right” people in key positions throughout the military and other agencies, I think they would treat a seceding state like the USSR treated Hungary in 1956.

Who ever thinks that they can keep us in this failed experiment.
