A loud minority of Texans call for Independence, which is not really possible as far as I know, BUT could the Rest of the USA just kick another state (Not necessary Texas) out? Or is this also not possible?

Yeah. If Congress did it and the federal government just enforced it there’s not much anyone could do about it.

Except with red states. Most are running in the negatives.
Texas is one of the few red states not running in the red.
Texas benefits enormously on federal spending. The reason it’s not in the red: f35, helo, rocket and other mil/space production that wouldn’t occur in “The United Counties of Texas”. Also subtract some of the largest mil installations on the planet - fort cavazos and fort bliss - plus dozens of other sites like Lackland/JBSA and Carswell/NASJRB ft worth and more… shittons of federal dollars going to texas.
Take it away - poof, texas is a lot of cattle and some windmills.
Sorry for the confusion, but “in the red” in this regard is a measure of how much the Fed spends in Texas vs how much (the people of) Texas sends to the Fed. Texas is one of the few red states not in the negative.
dude. that’s my premise:
The reason it’s not - fed spending. take that away? texas becomes a cattleocracy.
I think you are missing a ton of Fortune 500 companies Headquartered in Texas… Dell, Oracle, Tesla, Exxon, HPE, Charles Schwab, Texas Instruments… No state has more Fortune 500 HQ’s than Texas.
Texas is a bunch of big blue cities surrounded by cattleocracy.
HAHAAHAHAHA
You think those things are going to stay in Texasistan when it secedes?
