More domestic military exercises

Tanks in the streets and martial law?

Well, maybe no tanks, but...

A whopping big domestic deployment military training exercise is apparently planned later this summer, one with operations planned in at least several states.

A document posted online (I first saw it linked on Drudge) is short on describing the exercise scenario, but the map is interesting.

U.S. Army Special Operations Command

If the doc is authentic and accurate, looks to me like DoD might be prepping for some kind of Aztlan uprising by reconquistas.  Or maybe some kind of all-out assault on the U.S. by Mexican cartels and paramilitary.

But those are just guesses on my part.

If the Pentagon's prepping to wage war against irregular or occupying forces along our southwestern border region, seems like it might be a good idea for Washington to finally take action to tighten up security along our now porous border. It's well past time to get more picky about who's allowed to cross.

Update: Don and I plan to discuss Jade Helm 15 on Friday's webcast.
