Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the Illinois Separation referendums which will be held county-wide in 11 counties and in local townships in a 12th county on November 3, 2026. Though there appears to be no way the political classes settled in Springfield and DC will take the referendums seriously insofar as acting on the people’s wishes are concerned, what will the referendums lay the groundwork for as the DC Empire and the Illinois state government begin to collapse?

Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss pivotal lessons which can be derived from all the discussion which unfolded leading up to the Texas legislature’s hearings on the question of whether certain New Mexico counties could be brought back into Texas if they so desired to change their allegiance from Santa Fe to Austin. Why do people claim that counties do not have sovereignty? What is fundamentally wrong about this understanding if one truly believes that individual people have rights? How does this change the scope of the discussion on self-determination?
