Could be concern about the Mexican cartels. Drug & human trafficking is huge billion dollar business. We know the cabal because of Obama Fast & Furious gun scandal that the cabal has connections there. Cheer up. The NG needs to be at their tippy top best!
Firing blanks is less about practicing wargames, than it is about show of force on the border. It has a psychological impact to those trying to cross over on the other side.
I am also willing to bet that none of them have any live ammunition.
With no actual context given, other than the assumption by the poster that this is "civil war training," how do we know what this really is? Has this unit -- or any unit -- actually described what this video is all about?
Side note: I know they're probably shooting blanks, but if that were real ammunition, I'd love to have that much to play with and waste.
Cousins (2) in NG in texas. They do these all the time. Cousin showed me footage of one in which he himself had to throw live grenade at a "bunker" and also be sure to not you know, fuck it up because people would really get hurt.
It's acclimation/desensitization stuff. They do it pretty regularly so they get used to thinking with gunfire and execution while dirt is blowing up around them.
Now. Is this being amplified directly because of recent events? Probably not because they are pretty slow to react lol.
But let it be known they are pretty much always prepared for these sorts of events via this consistent drilling and training.
Also they learn Brazilian jiu jitsu and I'd say everyone in the NG is at the lowest like what would be a yellow belt. Just FYI if you are ever talking to one. Yellow belt is good enough to put any untrained civilian on the ground in sub 3 seconds and keep them their indefinitely.
Point being. Texas NG pretty good and trained. Civil War stuff or not is not really relevant. Pretty trained to just execute only limited by whatever terms of engagement given reason for execution not relevant to soldiers.
Meanwhile a mile down the street and the fence is wide open. There's lots of openings along the border for people to get in, the only difference is there's no staging area for processing the immigrants. The people coming across the border will tell you they don't need a staging area.
Why is this making me so sad? All this build up and we all knew this is coming but why does this make me cry?

It's good to remind feds that they don't have any heavy weapons. Normally they would get the guard to help them.
Now they are shit out of luck.
I seriously doubt anything happens.
Because there's a possibility that this would be American vs American and that's heart breaking.
They better practice because the enemies army has already crossed the border and is in the US!
Or... it's a normal training exercise. Or a movie set.
Jeeze, people post something on X and all the sudden "it's canon..."
Lame at best. No Context or Time Reference with the video.
