      It doesn’t, but that won’t stop them good ol’ boys from saying whatever the hell they like.

        BZZT, sorry, this is incorrect.

        The Texas State Guard (TXSG) is part of the state military force of Texas, and one of three branches of the Texas Military Forces. Along with the other two branches, the TXSG falls under the command of the Governor of Texas and is administered by the Adjutant General of Texas, an appointee of the Governor. The other two branches of the Texas Military Forces are the Texas Army National Guard and the Texas Air National Guard.

        Chucklehead wants to grow this force for… reasons.

      1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_State_Guard

      The Texas State Guard is a state level military org they place equal to the Texas Army National Guard and the Texas Air National guard. It has a tiny footprint and theoretically should only be civil affairs and disaster reliefs, but I wouldn’t doubt for a moment that Greg Abbot wants to put 'em in jackboots and have them drive tanks up and down the rio grand.
