Isn't that like a husband declaring he's divorced from his wife, but the wife says they are still married and the county only has a marriage license but no divorce decree in their records?

Don't you think "readmitted" may be a little misleading here?

I know that articles refer to the states as being readmitted (or restored to their former positions), but they had preconditions to be met. They had to ratify the 13th and 14th amendments first.

So, to use your logic, if they were out of the union, then how can they ratify any amendments to the United States constitution to be restored, unless they never really left the union?

The US military is utterly too weak to conquer Texas.

The military has not waged war since we dropped the bomb, that is why we can't win, not weakness, just weak leadership.

but there is no provision for secession from the union.

Other than the Constitution of course. The truth is of course rights like land belongs to those that can defend them, Russia is showing that to Ukraine as we speak. Biden may do the same in Texas, we shall see I guess. I once foolishly believed the American Army would never turn on the people again, now with the military we have, not so sure.

If TX departs with its 40 ‘red’ electoral votes the remaining 498 will lean heavily to the ‘blue.’

So, in your imagination, assuming the good guys win, THEN the survivors would propose a Constitution to be ratified by the same “modern day twits.”

LOL.

You should have written “if General Sherman will come knocking at your door, Texans will send him back to hell.”

That’s positive reinforcement for patriots and creates fear in the enemy.

Abraham Lincoln showed us what the thought about broken American laws even in states where he had no jurisdiction, at least temporarily.
