Wouldn’t it be great if the US started relocating it’s military bases to other states? I’m sure NM, MI or CA would be happy to have them.

That’s already happening, because the draconian antitrans and anti-abortion laws are impacting readiness in those states and driving down recruitment.

Oh you mean the 42 town-sized forward operating bases inside the treasonous province? They will come in very handy in the 72 hours it takes to resecure that territory.

I always wondered how quick that would go down.

72 hours seems quick, but I guess they wouldn’t really encounter actual resistance.

We did Baghdad in a month; we could do Austin in three days.

Do people really think that the servicemen in the military would willingly attack Texans? I have a huge suspicion that they’d revolt within the armed forces.

As someone currently serving active duty, yes - depending on the command climate and the servicemember. Especially if the targets are labeled as insurgents and a VEO threat with credible evidence. Now, bombing noncombatant civilians is a different story, but as far as conducting surgical strikes on domestic terrorists, no hesitation.

Would love to see what they would do to the ones they leave to “decommission” them

If it’s anything like the rest, they just leave toxic fuel spills to slowly seep into all the aquifers

Perfect. Texas loves not having environmental regulations, so there shouldn’t be any issue!
