And if Deep State says either comply or lose federal funding...
What do you think the state of Texas will do given its failure to plan for this eventuality.

I’d imagine deep state and the socialists have been threatening financial burdens all along. In your scenario I think the State of Texas would tell the regime ‘screw you.’ Invasion is not hyperbole, the risk to the country clear, and State leadership is willing to fight the good fight.
