Texas Governor Greg Abbott has announced the deployment of over 400 additional soldiers, along with C-130s and Chinook helicopters, to the U.S.-Mexico border in the Rio Grande Valley. This deployment is part of the Texas Tactical Border Force, which is coordinating with the U.S. Border Patrol under the Trump Administration to enhance border security. The soldiers are departing from military bases in Fort Worth and Houston and will join thousands of Texas National Guard soldiers already stationed at the border as part of Operation Lone Star. Governor Abbott stated that Texas now has a partner in the White House to secure the border, marking a shift from the previous administration's policies. He praised President Donald Trump for his leadership and expressed optimism about working with the federal government to address the border crisis.
