They do this all the time. Maybe Biden should call their bluff, execute his powers as Commander in Chief, and order the National Guard in Texas to turn on State Police.

I suspect it wouldn’t be 49 other states- I’d bet that there’s several other equally stupid states that would happily join them. Definitely Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and maybe Florida would join in. But I bet if Biden tried to call their bluff and pull all govt funding and military bases from those states they would freak out and change their tunes fast.
Oh shit, my dude, that would go all the way up tornado alley to Canada.
They wouldn’t freak out right away, they probably think their militias are more capable than the US military (what with ‘woke officials’ and trans rights n such), so they would be fine, until someone like Mexico (or even just a cartel from Mexico) decided to take back historically Mexican land.
Apparently red states’ governors support Abbot’s move, so…
