Ok.
If any State is going to throw off federal regulations it will be Texas as no other State has the wherewithal to survive on its own.
I dunno; ID recently made some interesting strides... and then there's the GA and FL officially calling for an Article V amendment convention.
Also there's Utah's actions which could impede/dismantle the giant NSA data-colection facility therein… I've heard absolutely nothing about TX moving against the one in San Antonio.
Who cares? States which know they are inferior do that’s who cares.
Again, you miss my point which is that I'm tired of the all talk and no action that both Texas and the Republican party spew.
In the case of TX it's about how great and freedom loving the state is, despite any evidence contrary (e.g. this map).
In the case of the Republican party it's government accountability, fiscal responsibility, constitutionalism, being pro-life, being pro limited-government, and just about anything they have as a party plank.
