Monckton: It’s Time For ‘Texit’ — Texas Should Secede, Thatcher Advisor Says
AUSTIN, TX – Lord Christopher Monckton, 3rd Viscount of Brenchley, thinks Texas should secede from the United States.
In his native Britain, voters are preparing to decide whether they will remain in the European Union.
Here in the United States, Texas just last month considered putting secession on the ballot. The Republican Party of Texas killed the measure.

If Hillary Clinton wins in November, expect the secession movement in Texas to gain lots of momentum. I would be willing to bet that senior state officials, especially Lt. Governor Dan Patrick, would warm to the idea of secession.
I love Lord Monckton. He has the best grammar ever.
Just let this NY’er in before the new Texas border closes. I don’t want to be trapped behind enemy lines.
A decade ago, Texans might have chosen to secede. Our success during the Great Recession drew a ton of yankees and other foreigners who want to change Texas rather than keep Texas and they will all vote against secession because they either won’t understand or disagree with why Texas would leave.
Me, too. They could call it the Texarlahoma Energy Extravaganza and drive the Saudis back to the stone age from which they so recently emerged.
Texas is not what it once was. It is being invaded by Obama’s refugee hordes. They will all find their way to the ballot boxes if their Free Stuff is threatened.
With the idiot that Louisiana recently put in the governor’s mansion, I doubt if they’ll be opting out of fedgov $$$$ for the foreseeable future. There are, of course, unforeseen possibilities (just ask Huey Long).
A political upheaveal is always an option, JBE is a complete idiot. It won’t be long before anyone with half a brain will figure it out.
They come down here looking for work after they destroy their own part of the country. They complain that we’re “slow” and and too nice. Worked for one manager from New Jersey. Told a group of us that we would have to be more aggressive against racism, and the “Christian” politics “down here” were too much for him to bare. I quit.
“A decade ago, Texans might have chosen to secede. Our success during the Great Recession drew a ton of yankees and other foreigners who want to change Texas rather than keep Texas and they will all vote against secession because they either won’t understand or disagree with why Texas would leave.”
Plus the first two tiers of counties in Texas (as you proceed northward from the Rio Grande) are solid Mexican RAT! Like California before it, Texas has already lost the battle to the Liberal/Illegal Cabal. RIP Texas!
The only hope left for our Republic is a Constitutional convention called by the states where the abuses of our Liberty heaped upon us for the last 80 years can be addressed. Desperately needed are Amendments that prohibit Congress exempting themselves or the Executive and Judicial branches from any laws they pass and absolute term limits for members of Congress and all federal judges including the Supreme Court. The powers of federal executive agencies also needed to be limited as should lawmaking by unelected federal judges. I fear that our nation is on the brink of a more violent revolution more like that in France in 1789 unless we take back our Constitution
The only problem with Texas seceding is that they’d have a HUGE immigration problem. And I’d be a part of it.
Yet somehow you know enough about Texas to predict our demise: Like California before it, Texas has already lost the battle to the Liberal/Illegal Cabal. RIP Texas!
Don't project California's failures onto this state. Texas is a very different place, and Has a very different base mindset.
Louisiana politics are strange. The best explanation I have heard is that the voters deal with corruption by voting for the other party. In other words, the current idiot is often more of a reflection on the integrity of the previous administration more than the ideology of the current administration.
This is why we can’t just vote for the letter R without doing long term damage.
“Texas is a very different place, and Has a very different base mindset.”
Sorry, but you are dilusional! We thought California was “solid Repubican” back when Ronald Reagan was our governor and California was first in the nation in any category you can name. Back then, we thought California had “a very different base mindeset” too. Turns out, we were wrong, and so too are you. Like California, you are turning Mexican along your border with that shithole country, just like we did, and you have people who run things in your state who are beholden to your wealthy “republican” businessmen who like the cheap labor. Every year the RAT Mexicans will move into the majority further northward until they control enough counties to control the state. Here today, you can live in the far north or in the Sierras and still live a totally conservative lifestyle, what with concealed weapons permits and all that stuff just like Texas. But what the hell, as long as those of you who are there today get to live out your lives before the tide turns, it’s o.k., but what about your children and your grandchildren?
