Or any alert, at all, in contradiction to some emails and other "news" making the rounds quoting completely misquoting State Sen. Dan Patrick. (Well, it looks like he did say there is an alert of some kind, but it’s not clear to me what he means, tho it sounds like just the state emergency center’s planners in Austin.)
As far as I know, the Texas guard is NOT on high alert or any alert. If it was it would be in the papers and on the television because it would be impossible to hide. If some guardsman didn’t let the cat out, his girlfriend or wife would. So, for now, as far as I can tell the state and feds are still just planning for any future trouble on the border.
UPDATE: But the president is considering sending the guard to the border–for what? He isn’t sure yet.
