BREAKING: Texas-Led Border Security Surge 'Imminent'
Breitbart's Texas ^ | June 18, 2014 | Bob Price

Posted on 06/18/2014 5:59:50 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

HOUSTON, Texas—State Representative Debbie Riddle (R-Tomball) told Breitbart Texas she spoke with Governor Rick Perry’s (R-TX) Office and they confirmed the surge to deal with the Texas border crisis is about to begin. Details are not available at this time, but Riddle said, “It is going to happen.”

Riddle spoke with Governor Perry’s office about the issue and was assured it “is going to be coming soon.” She said Governor Perry’s office is working very closely with Lt. Governor David Dewhurst’s office along with the office of House Speaker Joe Straus.

“They are gathering together everything they need to begin this right away,” Riddle said. She told Breitbart Texas that she could not divulge any information about exactly when, how long, and where the surge would be for reasons of operational security. She also could not disclose what the operational objectives would be at this time.

Riddle said, “We are going to feel this particularly here in the Houston area because of Houston’s role as a command and control center for the cartels--for both their drug and human trafficking operations.” She added that Texas Department of Public Safety Director (DPS) Steve McCraw told her last week that Houston is still the hub for these operations.

Riddle said, “Governor Perry is very angry that the feds are doing nothing about this problem.” She went on to say, “I didn’t expect the feds to do anything."(continued)

Here in Maine, our TEA Party governor, Paul LePage, ended Maine’s status as a sanctuary state two days after he was sworn in as governor in January, 2011.

Some elected officials get it (but not nearly enough).

DOJ has no authority, Texas Governor Perry has the authority of the Texas Constitution.

I’m a staunch conservative and have been posting since 2004. Perry’s pandering & catering to the illegals is well known, as has been pointed out dozens of times on this thread alone. The truth is what hurts, not false accusations of trolling. Is that like calling someone racist when they disagree with you? (Like 0bama & the demoRATs do?)

You nailed it.

-——Call up the national guard, if possible.-—

The mechanism is to call up the Texas Rangers. Their organizational purpose originally was to deal with problems from across the border.

Of course, the current Texas Ranger organization lacks the manpower to do the job. It will need lots of deputies. So, the trained and fit elements of the national Guard will become Texas Ranger Deputies. As Texans acting as deputized civilians, they are not subject to Obama/Pentagon control
