This Month @ The TNM: April 2024
Host Will Kacy on why the Texas Independence Referendum Act is nothing like 1861: a vote on a question and a negotiation, not an overnight break.
Host Will Kacy answers a piece of recent misinformation: the claim that a Texas referendum would instantly break up the United States and bring war.
It is 2024, not 1861, he says. The votes of that era were an immediate break, followed within months by war. The Texas Independence Referendum Act is a different thing: a vote on a single question, whether Texas should reassert its status as an independent nation, followed by negotiation rather than an overnight walkout.
