Has there ever been US states in recent times that have decided to go against the federal government? What administration until this one has triggered such moves?

Judge Napolitano mentioned that this has been done, but in a very minor fashion. Like refusal of some states (Indiana I think) to recognize daylight savings time.

Exactly right, and furthermore, if this movement continues and Texas passes it, then more states will follow suit. A single state cant stand up against the socialists, but 2/3 of them sure as hell can. And I believe, they will. What is there now, 26 of the states that are declaring sovereignty? Half and still moving, Barry and the Thugs had better not be ignoring we the people.

Yes. Medical marijuana,. California lost on commerce clause grounds. (Raich)

SCOTUS ordered the 9th Circuit to "reconsider" [Read -"uphold"] the 1934 NFA via application of Raich. (Stewart)

This Montana law is grandstanding boob-bait for suckers. Same for the effort in Texas. Ask the sponsoring legislators to address the cases I cited here, and find out how un-serious the state yokels are. If they don't know these cases and have a specific plan to surmount them, they aren't serious.
