January 6 Insurrection,Alex Garlands Civil War,Texas Nationalist Movement

The leader of the Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM) this week claimed the events in director Alex Garland's new movie Civil War are 'highly plausible,' adding that Texans would have no choice but to take up arms if the federal government failed to recognize a legitimate 'TEXIT' vote.

Despite the claims of Texas secessionists, 67% of the state's likely voters say they don't want to leave the United States.are"highly plausible," adding that Texans would have no choice but to take up arms if the federal government failed to recognize a legitimate 'TEXIT' vote.

For context, Garland's film doesn't provide much in the way of details about what led to the violent conflict it depicts. Viewers only know that the fictional president, who's serving a third term, disbanded the FBI at some point and ordered the use of airstrikes against U.S. citizens. "I still have the poll numbers right here on my desk, and it's amazing how many of those states that were talked about, as part of those various factions that withdrew from the union, show high polling numbers of support for wanting to leave the union," Miller said.Miller said the TNM wantsa a peaceful split from the United States via a democratic referendum, similar to the Brexit vote of 2016.

He went on:"If Texas votes to leave the union, if there's violence, it won't be on our part. It'll be on the part of the federal government."A study conducted this year by Newsweek along with UK-based Redfield and Wiltson Strategies found that 67% of likely Texan voters, if given the choice, would vote to remain part of the United States.that despite his standoff with the feds in Eagle Pass, the notion that he wants to secede from the union is a"false narrative.
