No other state has joined the TX lawsuit. Alabama and Louisiana AGs have released statements appreciating or supporting the lawsuit, but no state has yet joined the lawsuit. This could change, but for now, none has
SCOTUS has NOT accepted the TX case. The case has been docketed, just like the PA case had been docketed. SCOTUS has yet to decide if they will hear the case, while I do expect them to, they haven't done so yet.

If this ends with some states refusing to recognize a Biden presidency, and others refusing the recognize a Trump presidency, that will mean civil war. No memes or hyperbole. Neither side will be willing to give up the resources and territories of the other.

that will not happen per the constitution.
the founders were smart.
if a null elector vote election occurs, the vote goes to the state legislatures whereas they're given 1 vote per state.
over 30 states are majority republican.

And just to point out, the majority of those form a contiguous region if SCOTUS turns them down and they decide to secede.

I'll take it. We've got ports, military bases, and probably more guns than the rest of the country. Not to mention a fair number of northern states will say "leave me out of it" if it comes to civil war. More likely "how do we go with them?"

Some Southern senators back in the day did a good job of shifting military bases to the South. Good foresight.

If a land connection can be made via Utah or Colorado, I can see Idaho, Montana, Wyoming and South Dakota joining in.
