Why hasn't Texas succeeded in seceding yet?

AUSTIN, Texas — Texas Gov. Greg Abbott said Saturday that he is seeking to pardon a
U.S. Army sergeant who was convicted of murder in the 2020 fatal shooting of an armed
protester during nationwide protests against police violence and racial injustice.

Abbott tweeted that because the state constitution limits him to a pardon only on a recommendation
by the state Board of Pardons and Paroles he is asking the board to recommend a pardon and to expedite
his request in order to pardon Sgt. Daniel Perry.
"I look forward to approving the board's pardon recommendation as soon as it hits my desk," Abbott wrote.
Perry was convicted Friday by a Travis County jury of fatally shooting 28-year-old Garrett Foster during a
protest in Austin. He faces up to life in prison when sentenced.
"Texas has one of the strongest 'Stand Your Ground' laws of self-defense that cannot be nullified by a
jury or a progressive District Attorney," Abbott said.
A phone call to District Attorney José Garza's office on Saturday was not answered.
Perry's attorneys argued that the shooting was self-defense as Foster approached Perry's car with an AK-47 rifle.
Prosecutors said Perry could have driven away before firing his revolver and witnesses testified that Foster never raised his rifle at Perry.

Perry, who was charged in 2021, was stationed at Ft. Hood about 70 miles (112 kilometers) north of Austin in July 2020
when he was working for a ride-sharing company and turned onto a street and into a large crowd of demonstrators in downtown Austin.
In video streamed live on Facebook, a car can be heard honking before several shots ring out and protesters begin screaming and scattering.
When Foster was killed, demonstrators in Austin and beyond had been marching in the streets for weeks following the police killing of George Floyd.
Floyd died May 25, 2020, after a Minneapolis police officer pressed his knee against the Black man's neck for more than nine minutes.
Floyd, who was handcuffed, repeatedly said he couldn't breathe.
Floyd's killing was recorded on video by a bystander and sparked worldwide protests as part of a broader reckoning over racial injustice.
 
Obviously the court was wrong in the case so the governor has to step in. 👍

The pardon has been issued, Abbott agrees that only Some Lives Matter. The murderer was not a drag queen, we know this because he really was a racist groomer. Considered by Abbott during the process were inappropriate messages that Perry sent to someone who claimed to be 16 years old through Kik Messenger, a communication platform that has been used to share child pornography.
"Also promise me no nudes until you are old enough to be of age,” Perry wrote, the same month he shot and killed Foster.

Before signing off, Perry wrote, “I am going to bed come up with a reason why I should be your boyfriend before I wake up.

Perry, a U.S. Army sergeant, also sent racist and anti-Muslim messages before and after Floyd’s death. In April 2020, he sent a meme, which included a photo of a woman holding her child’s head under water in the bath, with the text, “WHEN YOUR DAUGHTERS FIRST CRUSH IS A LITTLE NEGRO BOY,”

It wasn't even in self-defense:
Daniel Perry texted his friends about plans to murder a protester he disagreed with.

A real charmer who only a MAGA could love.
 
Nope, all of that is clearly fake evidence.

But what MAGAts do have is all this evidence that Joe had done something… if they couldn’t only find it.
