Texas leading it we can get a new US. Without New York and the shitty blue states. What should we call it? "The ACTUAL United States of America"

To leave the US peacefully, a state has to get 3/4 of all other state legislatures to agree.

Easier to Amend the constitution ffs.

Clearly after the Supreme Court denied Original Jurisdiction, the pact of states has been broken. They're ignoring every law for themselves, why do we have to follow them?

Well, you can try to secede by force..

Not an ideal option.

Texas doesnt. We are the only state to have come into the union as our own country previously. It's written into our constitution that we can secede any time we want.

That is not true and it has been ruled on in the SCOTUS several times already.

Texas CAN split in to up to 5 states, but it cannot leave the union unilaterally, it has to have consent.

Just read the previous SCOTUS rulings on the topic.
