What mattered this week
The stories that actually moved Texas independence forward, or tried to move it back, explained without the press-release filler. If you read one thing about the movement each week, read this.
The short version
The Texian Brief
A short weekly read from Daniel Miller on what mattered for Texas independence, and one thing you can do about it. No spam. No filler. One email a week.
Most of what gets written about Texas independence is noise: outrage cycles, press releases, and recycled talking points. The Texian Brief is the antidote. Once a week, Daniel Miller sits down and writes you a short, plain account of where the movement actually stands and what it means for the work ahead.
It is written the way Daniel talks: direct, confident, and honest about the long road. The Brief never papers over a setback and never sells you false momentum. It connects the week's news back to the bigger picture: the coalition in the Legislature, the generational work of governing ourselves, and then it asks you to do one concrete thing.
The Brief is free, and it is the easiest way to stay current on the movement. If you are not yet ready to become a Texian, you should at minimum read the Brief. Add your name below.
What's in every issue
What it means
Daniel connects the week's news back to the bigger picture: the bill, the coalition, the long, peaceful, constitutional work of governing ourselves. Context, not just headlines.
One thing to do
Every issue ends with a single, specific ask: a call to make, a neighbor to talk to, a petition to share. Never vague inspiration. Always something you can act on before Monday.
Daniel Miller writes every issue himself.
Daniel is the founder and president of the Texas Nationalist Movement, a 6th-generation Texan, and the author of TEXIT: Why and How Texas Will Leave the Union. The Brief is not ghostwritten and not a committee product. It is one person, who has been in this fight for nearly thirty years, telling you what he sees. Read his full bio.
