Texas Governor Greg Abbott has announced the Texas National Guard will be deployed across the state to enforce "peace and order" ahead of expected protests.

"Peaceful protest is legal," Abbott wrote in a post on X. "Harming a person or property is illegal & will lead to arrest."

Why It Matters

Mass protests are erupting across the United States in response to President Donald Trump's crackdown on immigration. The White House has said anyone living in the country illegally is a "criminal." The administration is facing increasing resistance over its mass deportation policy.

Protests broke out on Friday in reaction to numerous ICE raids throughout Los Angeles. Amid the ongoing tumult, city officials, including Mayor Karen Bass , implemented a curfew for portions of downtown, from 8 p.m. Tuesday to 6 a.m. Wednesday, and it could continue throughout the coming days if warranted.

Energizing his base voters.

Reprehensible yes, but a good move politically

Saving Texans from imaginary threats is his go-to move when the bandwagon slows down enough for him to get on.

12. GOP Dictionary: Unrest

"1. Setting foot outside designated 'Free Speech Zones' in isolated areas such as alleyways, toxic waste dumps, and landfill sites. 2. Openly expressing opinions not sufficiently worshipful of our Lord and Savior Trump. 3. Non-whites gathered in groups of two or more."

13. Would not expect anything less from that asshole

His head is so far up Trump's ass he'll never again see daylight.

[Quanto Magnus]

14. This is the entire objective

Deploy troops, declare marshal law due to 'unrest, rioting, insurrection' (which actually isn't any of those), then suspend elections.
