Governor Abbott Issues Statement On Texas’ Constitutional Right To Self-Defense

January 24, 2024 | Austin, Texas | Press Release

Governor Greg Abbott today issued a statement on Texas’ constitutional right to defend and protect itself as President Joe Biden continues to attack Texas and refuse to perform his duties to secure the border.

"The Executive Branch of the United States has a constitutional duty to enforce federal laws protecting States, including immigration laws on the books right now," reads the statement. "President Biden has instructed his agencies to ignore federal statutes that mandate the detention of illegal immigrants. The failure of the Biden Administration to fulfill the duties imposed by Article IV, § 4 has triggered Article I, § 10, Clause 3, which reserves to this State the right of self-defense. For these reasons, I have already declared an invasion under Article I, § 10, Clause 3 to invoke Texas’s constitutional authority to defend and protect itself. That authority is the supreme law of the land and supersedes any federal statutes to the contrary."

    Eject Texas from the union the day before the election.
    Dumb Texan yankoids go out to vote but there's pandemonium because they're not part of America and there are no Texan electoral college votes which would have otherwise fallen to Trump.
    This causes genocide Joe to clearly win the election.
    Demand that Texas rejoins the union the day after the election.
    When they refuse, drone strike Abbott's house directly and the state capital as you control the empire security apparatus.

    Do it you fucking coward
