Let’s see, suspicious military training in the streets of America under the control of the fraud thug in the WH as he moves to nationalize the country’s law enforcement. You go Gov. Abbot, protect you’re citizens. Trusting anything this federal government does will be at our own expense and possible demise.

Someone, please oh please tell me. What does the military gain or glean from exercises like this?

We've been at war for decades now. Most if not all have been in the middle east. The big dust bowl of the earth. So, again, training exercises in urban and small town America will give them experience to deal with....the middle east?

What are they doing, why are they doing it and why in our towns and cities? Not trying to be conspiratorial, I just want to know what the hell special forces hope to learn from this.

Just appears to me a message from the federal government to Texans. We can reach out and touch you if we so choose.

Are they practicing snatching civilians and herding to detention? Why Texas?

We used to have such a thing as Posse Comitatus.

(The purpose of the act – in concert with the Insurrection Act of 1807 – is to limit the powers of the federal government in using its military personnel to act as domestic law enforcement personnel. It was passed as an amendment to an army appropriation bill following the end of Reconstruction, and was subsequently updated in 1956 and 1981.)

So, this federal act no longer exist? If it doesn't...why not? Are we now allowing military on our streets?
