#2 Let Garland try and enforce it.

#3 The governor needs to remind Mr. Garland of what the law is about aiding and abetting.

#4 Abbott should start treating the feds like Capital protesters. Lock them up with no bail. Put out a warrant for Garland (A&A).

#5 Texas is being invaded by a foreign nationals. Abbott should declare it as an act of war and use the TNG defend the borders. Then if Garland tries anything, charge him with treason against the state of Texas for giving aid and comfort to the enemy.

#6 If I were Gov. Abbott, I'd be framing up a 'Republic of Texas' draft declaration and making sure his National Guard leadership as well as all branches of Texas Law Enforcement are fully aware of the implications.

Properly notifying his intent along with the federal tax and defense impacts, to the perfidious traitors of the beltway (White House and the Congress) might be instructive as well. No guarantees, but they just MIGHT be reluctant to take on a Texas shi* storm.

I have little doubt the Governor could quietly mobilize a division or two of mounted (F-150) mobile civilian defense force volunteers if it became necessary.

#8 /\ I doubt anyone will be marching 6 million Texans off to detention and extermination camps. I just don't think that sort of thing will fly.

#10 On a side note - Texas has a separate militia structure from the NG. Several other states have them as backup when the NG is federalized and deployed out of state.

#11 The key here is NOT permitting Federalization.

#12 #3 True, and grounds for removal from any government office, elected or appointed.

#13 Several other state Governors have people on the Texas border to assist Abbott. He has already has the beginnings of a Confederacy.
