Professor Wall and the Secession Minstrel discuss the rapid series of events which unfolded in Austin, Texas to begin the year and how what took place there is going to affect the ongoing battle to get a TEXIT vote and various other state sovereignty initiatives through the legislature. Could the defeat of David Cook have long-term positive ratifications for the Texit cause just as the 2020 elections did for MAGA? How many of these renewed state sovereignty measures will get through? What is the key mindset change which seems to have emerged both in the Texas legislature and among the populace in general which is a very good sign for the Texit cause?
