With 'Texit,' some want to make Texas a nation once again

Texas, last an independent country around 180 years ago, now boasts a pocket of people who want that status back, advocating a divorce from the United States they call "Texit".

Its advocates say the dramatic decoupling -- loosely inspired by Britain's Brexit from the European Union -- would help resolve a roiling immigration border crisis and a fight with Washington over who controls the border with Mexico.
