    Gov. Greg Abbott on Thursday ordered the deployment of personnel and tactical assets from the Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the Texas National Guard to Austin.

    The governor says it is in anticipation of what he calls a planned “antifa-linked demonstration,” citing a need to protect citizens and property.
