Local militia leaders have not ordered anything - a stand down or otherwise. That’s the whole point. This call-to-action is from a rogue group.
It is premature to head down there until Texas DPS is in place, has eyes-on, and can provide an assessment. Local Texas Militia leaders (at least in my area) want to be asset to DPS not a hindrance. Having a bunch of disorganized yahoos running around will get good people killed.
A coordinated effort is in the works.
Bump
Confirmed, heard a bit of buzz on that in my area too.

Many thanks for this info; since “eternal vigilance is the price of liberty “, we should watch and wait for things to be in place.
