I am woefully undereducated on the matter of secession, but...

The question of secession was settled in 1869 in Texas V. White. Basically, no it's not legal for any state to secede.

Thanks for the link. I am not sure I buy that Texas had the same legal arguments as one of the original signing states that had some reservations about coming on board might have. I think Texas also actively campaigned to become a state for a few years before being allowed into the union.

I would most likely move to the state that successfully pulled this off, but I don't think it is possible.

I believe some of the original signing states put language in reserving the right to secede. what is the legality of it? I would think that it would have to begin with nullification and then progress to some sort of legal challenges.

What if a State pulled this off? Would not the USA have to settle a few accounts with the leaving state? Perhaps assess that states share of the national debt. Would they make the new state a debtor state that must buy essentially everything from the Feds? Some states have more Federal land than State owned land.

Sorry is this is not in the correct forum. This is a ridiculous example of impropriety from the police, district attorneys office, and perhaps a judge. Questionable actions from the jail facility as well as a hospital staffer releasing the man Robert Leone back to the custody of the armed thugs (police)

Good I hope that entire Treasonous Act is dismantled and tossed.

That is Brilliant, sad and ironic depending on the context.

He was supposed to have appeared in court on the 24th of this month. Is there any new on this fellow? How important is his arrest for jury tampering to fija overall?
