No, Texas can’t legally secede from the U.S., despite popular myth
quote:
When Texas entered the Union, “she entered into an indissoluble relation,” Chief Justice Salmon P. Chase wrote for the court. “All the obligations of perpetual union, and all the guaranties of republican government in the Union, attached at once to the State. The act which consummated her admission into the Union was something more than a compact; it was the incorporation of a new member into the political body. And it was final. The union between Texas and the other States was as complete, as perpetual, and as indissoluble as the union between the original States. There was no place for reconsideration, or revocation, except through revolution, or through consent of the States.”

It’s just political fantasy. Catering to their audience.

The right for the state to secede isn’t prohibited in the constitution, the power to prevent it wasn’t granted to the federal, and the precedent was wrong, as precedents sometimes are….. and war doesn’t settle a legal question. So no, they have the right.
