Abbott elevates readiness of Texas National Guard, DPS after Iran strike
[JustTheNews] Islamic terrorist threats increased under the Biden administration.

After President Donald Trump ordered U.S. military to strike three Iranian nuclear targets, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott ordered state law enforcement to elevate readiness in the event that any retaliatory response may occur in the state.

In response to the attack, Abbott said he supported Trump’s “decisive action” and was taking additional measures in Texas.

“As we unite as a Nation, we as a state must remain vigilant to secure our homeland,” Abbott said. “To ensure the highest level of safety in our communities, and out of an abundance of caution, Texas is elevating the readiness of our Texas Department of Public Safety troopers and Texas National Guard, increasing patrols around high-risk locations and ensuring our state is fully prepared to address any threat. At this time, there is no need to worry. We want to keep it that way.

“Texas stands with America’s Commander-in-Chief. We will defend our communities and support our troops."

Threats of escalation continue after Islamic terrorist threats increased under the Biden administration, and the FBI and Department of Homeland Security in January again warned of potential terrorist attacks targeting Americans, The Center Square reported. # id) ?>

2 Right after StarShip exploded on a Test Stand just across the river from a bad part of Mexico I wondered if somebody sabotaged it. One does wonder about unusual stuff happening next to a border. Esp a location under control of a gang on the other side of a border.

3 Sort of like decades ago watching C5As from Offut AFB doing touch and goes in Mexico... were they the same plane coming up as went down or a different one trying to avoid customs like one could on an AF-base?
