The debt was $10 million in 1845, worth $410 million today. If Texas pays $410 million to fed govt, can we secede? (We have $32.7 billion budget surplus)
And get the portions of New Mexico, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and Wyoming that Texas relinquished claims to in exchange for the US assuming that debt?

Texas needs patience. The US will collapse upon itself under the weight of it's debt. No outsiders or uprising will do anything.
