Showdown With the Feds in Texas has Produced Calls for Everything from Secession to Rebellion
Published 2 years, 3 months ago
Description
A dispute between Texas Republicans and the Biden administration over the Southern border has brought some calls for Texas to secede from the U.S. Though it may seem far fetched, GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley was asked about the idea. She said Texas has the right to secede from the federal union, but that they won’t. She once again affirmed that she believes in state's rights. What does the Constitution say about states rights to secede? We will talk to former federal prosecutor, David Katz, about that and much more. “It’s the Planet, Stupid’ brings Belinda Waymouth to the show to discuss the environment. This week, she’s looking at the possibility of a massive Natural Gas Export Terminal being built. The Biden Administration is deciding whether to approve it.
