On the Heels of Brexit...

...there's a move for Texas to secede from the United States. It's got the not-so-creative moniker "Texit."
I know they along with Cali have been a separate country before (Cali for only a few months, TX for significantly longer), but I would have thought Lincoln had settled THAT question already.
(Actually, we DO have a secession movement in Cali right now, only it's not secession from the US. A few wacked-out northern border counties have joined with a few wacked-out southern border counties in Oregon to form the proposed State of Jefferson. The referenda aren't going well for the movement, however....)
