Texas Military MOBILIZES for SHOWDOWN at the Southern Border

Something I did not know and I suspect many do not know, but it is NOT the National Guard at the Southern border but the state of Texas's own military! Texas has a military branch not connected with the Federal Government.

Look up state guard in Wikipedia! Constitutionally all states can have them, only about half do. It’s what’s left of the old state militia system.

Strange situation where a state has to protect itself from Feds who are violating their own laws.

Texas is its own republic but a union member. It was part of the terms for becoming a state.

I hope you know it isn’t a combat unit and that you can join at age 67.

I think I read that OFFICIALLY the president has to place a request to the governor of a state to call up the NG.

Back during Obama’s 1st term he was scared of the Tea Party and feared they would overthrow his regime so he asked the Pentagon to study what would the Military do in such a case and it was determined if such an outcome did happen most bases could easily be shut down and isolated from resources to operate in short order, many bases and units would desert or refuse any orders out of Washinton and go to the other side, internal passive and overt sabotage...So the bottom line is if Washington DC thinks the Military is soundly in their corner they might want to rethink that.

They may not be known by name, but there are still many Frank Hamer types still out and about. I would venture a guess that they will show up when it’s time. I’m just sitting back and waiting... watching. The numbers that will show up will be surprisingly great.

—> And, we also have the Texas Rangers, DPS, Texas State Guard, Texas State militia, 255 sheriffs department SWAT and tactical teams, and about a dozen other militias around the state to throw into the mix.

… + 1.5 million vets

How can Texas have it’s own military? Was it apart of annexation agreement with the United States way back when?


From the feedback I am getting every state can have their own Army, just most don’t.

It certainly a little known bit of information but I suspect that within a few days we will hear more about it.

I do. Sounds about right. When I went to school, they taught Texas History, and most of it right.

Biden will require all Texas National Guard to wear the underwear on their heads, and jump up and down at least 20 minutes of every hour, while rapping.

So. Do you really think they will shoot 67 year old people standing at the border to allow illegals in?
