People keep talking about “Federalizing the National Guard” and now you’ve got other States pledging their NG to Texas in defiance of the Supreme Court (see image).

So is this what CW2 looks like?

P.S. I’m a Brit

    No no he just needs to appease his murderous posturing!

    Abbot will be satisfied with getting what he wants for no cost to him, surely.

    God, I’m a political genius.

      I can’t speculate as to what Abbot wants, but he’s definitely asking for an armed confrontation with the U.S. Military, and as a Texan, I think Biden should give only Abbot exactly that.

        there is such thing as an unlawful command. Is there a way the military deals with such commands?

          I’m not aware of anything outside of the civil war. There have been impeached governors sure, but the feds stepping in to stop one or more states from being egregiously bad happened only once that I know of.
