Breaking Point: States on the Brink of Divorce

Multiple secessionist movements across the United States are gaining momentum, with advocates seeking political alternatives to their current state governance. The Texas Nationalist Movement (TNM) views these developments as part of a broader pattern of growing dissatisfaction with federal and state political structures.

We see the Greater Idaho Movement as a prime example of citizens taking concrete steps to address political representation challenges. Thirteen counties in eastern Oregon have voted to potentially join Idaho, reflecting a deeper desire for self-determination that resonates strongly with our own Texit movement. These counties, which overwhelmingly supported the election of Donald Trump, demonstrate the rural-urban political divide that has become increasingly pronounced in recent years.

The underlying motivation is clear: when state governments no longer represent the values and interests of significant portions of their population, people will seek alternative solutions. Matt McCaw, executive director of the Greater Idaho Movement, articulated this sentiment perfectly when he noted that the tension stems not from different values, but from one region’s values being forcibly imposed on another.

Our experience in Texas mirrors this struggle. We understand intimately how a state’s urban centers can systematically marginalize rural and conservative populations. The pandemic period accelerated these divisions, exposing fundamental disagreements about governance, individual rights, and community priorities.

While the Greater Idaho Movement differs from our Texit strategy in its approach — seeking to redraw state lines rather than establish full independence — it represents a similar core principle: people have a right to be governed by institutions that genuinely represent their interests. Historical precedents exist for such border adjustments, including the creation of West Virginia and certain territorial exchanges.

The potential involvement of President Trump adds another interesting dimension to these secessionist movements. His potential support could provide significant political momentum for groups like the Greater Idaho Movement and, by extension, our own efforts. The TNM has long argued that Texas possesses the economic and cultural infrastructure to thrive as an independent nation, and we see these emerging movements as validation of our long-standing position.

What’s particularly noteworthy is how these movements transcend traditional political narratives. They represent a grassroots response to systemic political disconnection, where large populations feel increasingly alienated from their supposed representative governments. Whether in Oregon, Texas, or other states, citizens are demonstrating a willingness to explore radical solutions to political representation challenges.

For the Texas Nationalist Movement, these developments are more than isolated incidents. They represent a growing recognition that current governmental structures may no longer serve the diverse needs of their constituents. Our mission remains unchanged: to secure and protect the right of the people of Texas to govern themselves.
