Greg Abbott authorizes Trump to deploy Texas National Guard to other states to protect federal officials

[Emile]

President Donald Trump could send 400 members of the Texas National Guard to other states “to ensure safety for federal officials,” Gov. Greg Abbott said Sunday on social media.

On Sunday evening, Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker posted on X, saying that the president is ordering the deployment of Texas National Guard members to locations like Illinois and Oregon, calling it “Trump’s invasion.” The announcement followed protests at ICE facilities in these states that have led to arrests.

Pritzker also called on Abbott to refuse any coordination.

Less than an hour later, the Texas governor responded that he “fully authorize[s]” such a move by the president.

2. I remember when Abbott and Republicans believed Obama was going to invade Texas

Operation Jade Helm. That was just a fever swamp conspiracy theory that Abbott lent credence to by saying his National Guard General would monitor the threat. Now, Abbott will help Trump invade Oregon.

Abbott never passes up an opportunity to embarrass Texas with a purely political stunt.

3. Abbott is constantly engaged in the pursuit

of being the very worst example of a human being that is possible.
He relishes in the endeavor with gusto.
Hope his wheels fall off soon.
