"We hold that acting President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. was not legitimately elected by the people of the United States," says a resolution acted on by Texas Republicans.

It also includes language that suggests this is a pretext to start actual serious conversations about secession.

...I'm genuinely concerned about my future in this state comrades.

Edit: i've lived in Texas the majority of my life so I am fully aware that republican idiots talk about about secession ever other day or more and have as long as I've been alive. But as far as I'm aware this hasn't been in their official platform and the fact that this is combined with their statement on Biden tells me this is a measure or two more serious than idiot tough guy talk.

    Texas seceding is probably the only way the Democrats could win in 2024. The funniest thing that could happen is that Biden or whoever wins by [Amount of Texas electors minus one].

      :biden-troll: is so weak that if secession happened tomorrow, nothing would happen. In fact if that seceded state started demanding handouts from the federal government it left behind, it would probably get those too. :agony-yehaw:

      Half the joke in Texas is how quickly the sessionists vanish as soon as a Republican takes the throne.
