'TEXAS RANGER' CHUCK NORRIS WARNS OF MILITARY TAKEOVER IN LONE STAR STATE

 ‘Texas Ranger’ Chuck Norris Warns of Military Takeover in Lone Star State


Conspiracy theories have swirled around Operation Jade Helm ever since it was announced. The massive, seven-state military exercise has many sweating over a potential government takeover, including Texas Governor Greg Abbott and preeminent “Texas Ranger” Chuck “Roundhouse” Norris.

It’s not entirely clear how the federal government would, hypothetically, invade a US state. The Texas legislature, governor and judiciary all operate beneath the broader umbrella of Washington, just as all states do. A US military invasion of its own territory would make little sense — the political equivalent of a bored dog gnawing on his own foot.

But that hasn’t eased the nerves of many in Texas. Now that former presidential candidate Rick Perry has left the governorship, the new administration is taking its own tack when it comes to protecting the Lone Star State. Governor Greg Abbott has deployed the State Guard to keep an eye on the Operation Jade Helm situation, ensuring the “safety, constitutional rights, private property rights, and civil liberties” of Texans goes unimpeded, according to NPR.
That decision has already been called “pandering to idiots” by State Representative Todd Smith.
"I am horrified that I have to choose between the possibility that my Governor actually believes this stuff and the possibility that my Governor doesn’t have the backbone to stand up to those who do," Smith wrote in an open letter. (Texans had best keep a CLOSE EYE on Smith, already demonstrating VERY questionable positions on matters of UTMOST IMPORTANCE to ALL Texans, to the point of seriously examining just WHO and WHAT is Smith serving because it is VERY QUESTIONABLE that he is serving Texas.)


  But if there’s one man who undoubtedly has a strong and sturdy backbone – quite possibly the toughest ever known to man – it’s Chuck Norris.  Not a Texas man by birth, Norris is perhaps best known by his leading role in the television series "Walker, Texas Ranger," and he’s thrown his support behind Governor Abbott.
"The US government says, 'It’s just a training exercise'," Norris wrote for WorldNetDaily. "But I’m not sure the term ‘just’ has any reference to the reality when the government uses it."
"It’s pretty sad and bad when major military ops are ordered in a large fiery state like Texas and not even the governor or its senators know the specifics," he added. The actor, known for his roundhouse kicks, also had high praise for Texas Senator and 2016 presidential candidate Ted Cruz. Cruz has "reached out to the Pentagon to inquire about this exercise," according to Bloomberg. A questionable decision for a presidential hopeful, accusing the military he hopes to command of a massive conspiracy.
