ALERT: Texas Defies Martial Law So Obama Does Something UNTHINKABLE Texas Governor Greg Abbott has stirred controversy after standing up against Operation Jade Helm 15, involving special operations units of the United States Military working with government and law enforcement in southwestern states. Abbott ordered the Texas State Guard to monitor the operation. I have no idea what hes thinking, Josh Earnest, White House press secretary told reporters. During the training operation, it is important that Texans known their safety, constitutional rights, private property rights and civil liberties will not be infringed, Abbott told the leader of the Texas State Guard. By monitoring the operation on a continual basis, the state guard will facilitate communications between my office and the commanders of the operation to ensure adequate measures are in place to protect Texans. Still, Earnest claims that there is nothing for Texans to worry about. The thing that I can say without having a lot of detailed knowledge about the particular exercise is that in no way will the constitutional rights or civil liberties of any American citizen be infringed upon while this exercise is being conducted, he declared. What do you think? Is Abbott justified in being concerned?
