When the federal government is actively hostile towards the states then the only recourse is going to be secession.

In a world where you and I could be renditioned to a foreign country and thrown into slave labor by the government simply acting fast enough as to maneuver around the court then there is no rule of law and there is no remedy.

That’s not really a viable recourse as it will result in that state being force ably retained in the union.

I think a better remedy is to work within the laws of the country and to elect different federal representatives (president, senator, house representatives).

Secession would definitely be worse for any state attempting it.
