The United States, which has caused a lot of trouble overseas, is about to fight internally.
The conflict came from the U.S. federal government and the state of Texas, and the two sides fought to "grab turf" and seize control of Shelby Park on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Things have to start in 2021.
Texas launched a lone star operation, mainly to crack down on illegal immigration, originally the jurisdiction of immigration belongs to the U.S. federal government, but Texas Governor Abbott said, I don't care about immigration, I quote the Constitution's provisions on invasion, I am defending Texas, and the means of defense is to build barbed wire on the border.
The authority of the Biden administration was challenged, so the federal government and the state government began to fight lawsuits, Texas wanted to continue to build, Biden wanted to demolish, and no one could convince anyone.
By Jan. 11 of this year, the Texas National Guard was authorized by Governor Abbott to take control of a 2.5-mile area of Shelby Park on the border, and also hung barbed wire to drive federal patrols away.
Federal personnel are forbidden to enter state territory, and Texas is going to rebel?
And on January 12, a tragedy occurred in the area, where a family of three from Mexico drowned.
And then the two sides began to argue,
10 days after this tragedy,
It's again,
The confrontation between the two sides has escalated, and American society has begun to choose sides.
25 Republican states in the United States signed a statement in support of Texas to defend its borders;
Oklahoma has begun sending the National Guard to Texas;
Trump highly praised Abbott's approach and angrily sprayed the Biden administration;
Even the Speaker of the House of Representatives said that "the House of Representatives is strongly supporting Abbott."
This is the rhythm of the fight, and some say that the federal government is unleashing a civil war, and even the voice of "two Americas" has appeared.
Moreover, there are also so-called schemes:
First, some Republican congressmen said that it is better to "divorce the country", and since the party is divided, then divide the United States according to the party.
Second, Texas simply left it alone, after all, the "Lone Star Republic" has a reputation.
In the United States, Texas is indeed a "thorn in the head".
Texas was a Spanish colony in the early days, and after Mexico became independent, Texas was part of Mexico, but at that time, a large number of Americans poured into Texas, and in 1836, Texas declared independence from Mexico and established a republic, but Mexico did not recognize it, and the two sides continued to fight.
Within a few years, the Republic of Texas announced its accession to the United States, and then the German-Mexican War became the American-Mexican War.
"Deguo" became a state, but as time went on, Texas also wanted to become independent from the United States and continue its "Deguo", because a star on the country/state flag is also known as the "Lone Star Republic".
In the United States, Texas is the "second oldest in 10,000 years", second only to Alaska in terms of area and second only to California economically, but the official statement of Texas is that with a GDP of 2.4 trillion US dollars in 2022, it is the "eighth largest economy in the world", slightly smaller than France and larger than Russia.
This is about the foundation of Texas independence.
In the past few years, the United States has done a lot of things.
For example, for China, it is said on the surface that it does not seek decoupling from China, but in private it is all decoupling, not only suppressing China on chips, but also pulling allies together, even including China's Taiwan region.
In addition, the rhetoric of "one China," but behind the scenes, arms sales to Taiwan are still in full swing, which can be said to be Sima Zhao's heart.
In Europe, first pick up the Russia-Ukraine conflict, and then reap the benefits in the Russia-Ukraine conflict, especially on energy issues such as oil and gas, which directly cut off Europe's thoughts on Russian oil and Russian gas, but it is the American oil and gas companies that take the opportunity to make a profit.
Even allies don't want to live a good life.
At this time, Texas is doing such a thing, and non-ally countries are naturally happy to watch the excitement of the "two Americas", and the least happy should be Zelensky, because Republican lawmakers are also using the immigration card to budget aid to Ukraine.
Even the Houthis have to jump out at this time to disgust the United States, "You must respect the human rights of all parties."
Of course, civil war does not necessarily start, and party strife mainly serves the election, and no one is a fuel-efficient lamp for China.
The virtues of Biden's Democratic Party are obvious to all, and the two candidates of the Republican Party are not fuel-efficient lamps.
Essentially, it's still about accelerating decoupling.
