NEW MEXICO’S GOVERNOR WAS ON “FACE THE NATION” ON TV SUNDAY MORNING, DEFENDING HER DECISION TO PULL NATIONAL GUARD TROOPS FROM THE BORDER. THAT DECISION CAME AFTER PRESIDENT TRUMP DECLARED A NATIONAL EMERGENCY AT THE BORDER. IT ALLOWS HIM TO GET THE INCREASED FUNDING HE WANTS TO BUILD MORE OF A WALL.
GOVERNOR LUJAN GRISHAM SAYS THE PRESIDENT IS ONLY ENCOURAGING FEAR AND RACISM … AND NEW MEXICO IS AMONG THE STATES SUING TO END TRUMP’S DECLARATION. THE STATES SAY IT’S UNLAWFUL AND UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
