Soooo…
Texas Guard folks took some initiative and did some proactive intelligence work…
When officers from the Texas National Guard showed up to their 7 a.m. meeting with federal agents from Homeland Security Investigations in El Paso, they didn’t arrive empty-handed.
Six military intelligence officials turned over a list of names at the February 2022 meeting. The Texans were part of an intelligence directorate supporting Operation Lone Star, Gov. Greg Abbott’s state-run border mission. The officers, which included the group’s top two leaders, told federal agents they’d secretly infiltrated invite-only WhatsApp group chats filled with migrants and smugglers and wanted their help investigating the targets they’d identified, according to a sworn statement attached to a whistleblower complaint filed later that month.

Now you would ‘think’ they’d be getting cooperation, right?
Take your BP meds before you read the rest of the story!
Apparently they weren’t allowed to actually DO intelligence operations, since they were only ‘Guard’, not actually deployed overseas. A whistleblower apparently turned them in, so they’re all in trouble, AND were accused of using DOD assets and getting access to ‘classified’ FBI files they weren’t supposed to have.
Talk about tying their hands… Grrrr….
I’m SO glad I’m retired and out of that whole mess!
In a more sane world, they’d get “attaboys” for taking initiative and creativity. It sounds like some folks were more worried about covering their as*es that catching smugglers.

It sounds to me like some folks were more worried about doing the 5th column administration’s Bidening.
I am not surprised at this action by the feds, what with the insane WOKE crowd running the government and the military into the ground. This is no longer a country of we the people. It has become a country of the insane LGBTQ+ crowd. They are turning America into a new Sodom and the result will be that the United States will end up on the ash heap of history unless the people repent and turn to God and Jesus asking for forgiveness. I just watched on the news the head of FEMA stating that they only have a few billion dollars with which to operate and need more funds in order to help the people in Florida and other areas of the country hit with destructive storms and fires. Instead of taking care of our own Biden continues to send billions to Ukraine and send weapon systems that end up on the black market and into the hands of America’s enemies.
I agree with Mike V up there. Only I go a tad further. If you are running a covert op. bringing bad guys into the country, you’re likely get annoyed if the good guys rumble your game.
Sane countries use their military to deter and repel invaders with force if necessary.
Ours are not those sane countries.
I don’t do work for the federal government or their pawns (derivative employment). I used to. I have retirement checks coming from the same. BUT now I work outside of the US only, primarily for banks and that sort of thing. FEDGOV is completely toxic.
Well, those officers just declared their loyalty to the US Constitution….God help them
Incredible…makes the blood boil
FBI never plays well with others.
All- Thanks for the comments!
Hey Old NFO;
of course the Feds shot them down…You expect any of the alphabet agencies to actually do anything to support the country? Nope, they are beholden to Xiden and his agenda, so the American public is screwed.
They should resign en masse and maybe join WAGNER.
