The letter looks like it contains some seriously sound Constitutional legal principle. The first line, the one tht says "The federal government has broken the compact between the United States and the States" also sounds pretty ominous. That's the sort of thing the Founders got into the habit of saying just before declaring independence. This has the potential to go south in a hell of a hurry, but what has to be done, has to be done. When a government is no longer responsive to it's citizens, then it is no longer a legitimate government. That is an old principle, set forth in the Declaration of Independence, 1776 version.

The part of the post dealing with calls to "Federalize" the Texas National Guard fits in well with the thread on militias. As I mentioned there, any force intended to be a check on a government cannot be subject to that same government. I think this demonstrates adequately that the various National Guards are not "militias". Instead, they are merely other tentacles of the national standing army. If they were militias, they would only be subject to local and state governments. If Abbott wants to use the Guard as a state militia, he needs to come up with some legal theory that declares them not subject to "federalization", and pronto.

This bears watching, if only to see whether it is merely another shot across the bow for the Feds in a long line of shots across the bow, or whether it is the shot that will provoke them to take action... and that action may not be very pretty. I think we all know that they are not going to enforce national borders until a less lawless monarch sits on the throne in the Oval Office. Until then, the US will remain under attack, with the very people who are supposed to protect us conspiring with the attackers.

I think they used to have a name for that sort of activity, when folks betray the very people they were sworn to protect....

Growing up in Texas and going to school there for many years, "Remember the Alamo" actually meant something as far as standing up for a principle regardless of the sacrifice and numbers against you.

With all the west coast transplants I am actually amazed that "Remember the Alamo" is still alive. WTG Texas !

My advice is don't plan on staying long - just make it a rescue/extraction mission. Just get in, grab the grand babies, and get back out before they know you were ever even there.

Biden has nationalized the U.S. Telegraph System!

Biden is asking Generals to assess and create scenarios for recalling The Army of the Potomac!

The Secretary of War has enlisted a Legion of Carrier Pidgeons!

Easier said than done. It's not just the grandkids down there but also kids, parents, siblings, nieces and nephews, cousins, etc. My side of the family are all in Texas and Louisiana.

Leave Texas now when they are the vanguard of freedom?

Dear Lord, where have the patriots gone?

Join the resistance, don't abandon Texas.

As weird as this might sound I wonder if some in the Biden regime has cut a money deal with the Cartels. Why else would they be so stupid and allow a land based invasion of the USA ?  Follow the money ?

Not so far fetched. A couple years ago, Nancy Pelosi led a contingent of congress critters and strap-hangers down to Mexico, and they all mysteriously returned a bit richer than they were when they left the country.

Folks wondered what that was about...
