obvious now.  If they get the partition, eastern Washington and eastern Oregon will also join the Northwest Coalition.”
    Governor Jacobs paused a moment. “Did you speak with General Jefferson?"
    "I did." Paul Randall said, "The brass at Fort Hood are holding a meeting right now explaining the intentions of the leadership on the base. They will offer any soldiers or officers who remain loyal to D.C. the opportunity to leave provided they are off the base by 8:00 a.m. tomorrow morning.  Anyone who stays will be treated as a deserter if they leave or suddenly decide to renounce their allegiance to Texas.
    “Fort Bliss, Fort Sam Houston, all the Air Force Bases and Naval Bases in Texas seem to be coordinated to give the same opportunity. The good General offered to get some Bradleys, Cougars and Humvees out of Red River if you think you would have any use for them. Maybe a couple of those would be a good show of strength at the border roads; if the militia won't mind that is."
    "That would be much appreciated, Paul," Jacobs said. "I am sure Jefferson is aware of the Northwest Coalition. There aren't many bases up there, but the ones that are, would be worth locking down. There are some heavy hitters up that way. Specifically, Malmstrom Air Force Base in Montana and Warren Air Force Base in Wyoming. They’re two of the three that "officially" control Minutemen ICBM Missiles."
    Paul replied, "I know he positioned leadership up there in hopes that Montana and Wyoming would side with the patriots. Jefferson is also hoping the partitions go through, specifically for Washington. Fairchild Air Force Base is right outside Spokane. The official story is that all of their nuclear silos were decommissioned, but General Jefferson seems to think that may not be entirely true. Same story with Vandenberg Air Force Base located in the People’s Republic of California. Not much hope for getting control of that one.
    “The only other active silo site "officially" is in Minot. We would have all of the official nuclear missile silos if North Dakota sided with us. Of course ICB Ms are only one point of the nuclear triad. Weapons storage, B-52s, B-2s and nuclear subs armed with Tridents are sprinkled all over the country. If we’re talking quantity, there are over 2,000 warheads still waiting to be dismantled at Pantex, right here in Texas. Well, mutually assured destruction has kept us all alive this long. Have you thought about what you’ll do with the federal agencies inside Texas borders?"
    "I'll wait until the military bases get settled and then issue eviction notices as soon as I know we have the support from the bases ," Jacobs said.
    “What about controlling the riots?” Paul asked.
    Jacobs replied, “I’ll issue a statement that everyone needs to stay home. I’ll make a point of reminding everyone of the Castle Doctrine and extend it to include their right to use deadly force in defense of their neighborhoods, but we don’t have the manpower to keep every street safe. Even if we had every soldier from every military base in America, we couldn’t stop this. The banking system just collapsed and no one can get a nickel out of their bank, write a check or use a credit card. I hope people took the opportunity to get prepared after that shot across the bow last November with the EBT riots.
    “I also hope all the good folks of Texas have guns and are ready to defend themselves. The bad element will have a heyday with this one. Not only ha s the government taught people that they will take care of them financially through welfare, they’ve taught them that the police are responsible for their safety. That’s a bigger lie than the welfare system. In the best of times, all a police officer can do is come file a report after the crime has already been committed. Sometimes they can catch the guy who did it, but even if they do, the damage is already done. I hope folks have figured out that they’re responsible for their own
