Jade Helm 15

Texas Governor Greg Allen has ordered the State Guard to monitor operation Jade Helm 15, an exercise of various military Special Forces that will take place in the Southwest, including Texas over the summer. Texas Senator Ted Cruz said in effect that you can’t trust the federal government because it has lied to us so often. Some might laugh at these men and other “conspiracy nuts,” but when a noted intellectual like Chuck Norris adds his voice to the chorus of people who fear that it is all a plot to take over Texas, you have to wonder.

“The US government says, ‘It’s just a training exercise’ but I’m not sure the term ‘just’ has any reference to reality when the government uses it,” Norris said. Indeed!

How would this nefarious plot work out? What would the federal government do? Send in a bunch of Northern liberals to preach to the “real” Texans? Fill the schools with the common core curriculum?

They wouldn’t go that far, would they?
