Since when does Texas have its own military?

  1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_State_Guard

The Texas State Guard is a state level military org they place equal to the Texas Army National Guard and the Texas Air National guard. It has a tiny footprint and theoretically should only be civil affairs and disaster reliefs, but I wouldn't doubt for a moment that Greg Abbot wants to put 'em in jackboots and have them drive tanks up and down the rio grand.

abbot establishes a base for the TXSG at Eagle Pass. mother fuck
