Deploying guardsmen to keep peace post-election in Texas bugs Leftists

“The Pratt on Texas - copyright Pratt on Texas all rights reservedTexas National Guard said Monday it would dispatch up to 1,000 troops to five major cities around the state as early as this weekend, but a top general insisted Monday it was not in anticipation of trouble during the Nov. 3 election,” Hearst newspapers reported Monday night.

Protecting polling stations “has not been on any mission request or in any conversation with the governor’s office,” Maj. Gen. James K. “Red” Brown said. But that didn’t stop Democrats from reacting in typical fashion. Far-Left Austin city councilman Greg Casar accused Governor Abbott of “fear-mongering” via Twitter.

Best response to Casar was from Fabian Sifuentes who wrote: “Instead of bitching about what [Abbott is doing,] why don’t you go on the record right now and denounce ALL violence in the wake of the election. Encourage the peaceful transition of power.”

…what is objectionable to giving National Guardsmen some work to prevent Texas cities from being turned into Portland, Seattle, New York, or other unlivable hell holes?

Given that the “Trump Resistance Plans ‘Mass Mobilization’ After Election To Shut Down The Country If Biden Doesn’t Win,” documented by Joy Pullmann at The Federalist, what is objectionable to giving National Guardsmen some work to prevent Texas cities from being turned into Portland, Seattle, New York, or other unlivable hell holes?

One funny from all this is that the Hearst story reported that the Leftists mayor of San Antonio, Ron Nirenberg, said that Governor Abbott had not asked the city if they wished to have guardsmen posted there.

Nirenberg, in typical ignoramous fashion, is confusing Texas’ internal business with Federalism issues. In Texas the governor is the authority in this case and can send whatever force he wishes into the mismanaged Leftist city of San Antonio.
