I believe the problem about secession was ruled upon in 1869.

Texas vs White

https://www.britannica.com/event/Texas-v-White

Texas v. White, (1869), U.S. Supreme Court case in which it was held that the United States is “an indestructible union” from which no state can secede.

If they were trying to secede from the United States, you might have a point.
