New Mexico's new Democrat governor Michelle Lujan-Grisham is certainly making a name for herself after just 5 months in office -- if being an open-borders clown with tanking approval ratings is what she's after.
First, after President Trump deployed National Guard troops to the Mexican border to deal with a huge increase in illegal entries in January, she ordered them removed, calling it an "act of resistance":
Lujan Grisham withdrew 118 National Guard troops from the state’s southern boundary.
She said she did it to counter what she called Trump’s “charade of border fear-mongering,” and as a “protest” against Trump’s move to ban “transgendered” troops from the U.S. military.
Then, after drug smuggling increased by a staggering 1,700% in the 3 months thereafter -- leaving New Mexicans furious -- a stunned Grisham did a 180 -- begging Trump to send additional border personnel:
Lujan Grisham asked DHS to increase government personnel at the border and requested reimbursement for humanitarian assistance, among other resources.
“She declares there’s no crisis. She removes the National Guard, and now she’s there asking for money,” New Mexico GOP Chairman Steve Pearce mocked.
Now comes word that a Mexican national who climbed an 18-foot border fence fell off and died on the U.S. side.
And the leftist Governor is using the incident to be-clown herself once again -- blaming the U.S. government -- not the Mexican government or even the illegal alien himself -- for the death!
"We need more resources to protect us, and protect everyone else, and it's a clear -- once again -- failure of the Federal government."

Works as designed.
“act of resistance” must be what all the cool kids are calling treason these days.
Dump Michelle Lujan-Grisham
What is wrong with New Mexicans ? To elect a moron like this ?
Republican Party of N.M. ? Anyone awake over there ?
She doesn’t understand gravity.
Put bilingual warning signs on it?
Well maybe the illegal alien shouldn’t have been climbing it in the first place.
Someone tell this stupid female dog to try sneaking into Mexico uninvited and get back to me. As for the dead invader, I’m about to bust out bawling.
Illegal Alien Falls to Death From Border Fence, Trying to reach Governor Grisham’s Promise of Sanctuary.
Don’t drink and climb.
There's a lesson in there somewhere. I wonder if the late wetback's compadres learned anything from his timely demise.
Beta test successful!
Gravity check - A Ok.
Sorry Gov but America is an attractive nuisance and we were just taking reasonable care to prevent harm.
I am not seeing the problem.
This wouldn’t have happened from a Trump wall because he wouldn’t have been able to climb it in the first place.
With all of the gaps in the fence line why did this numbskull cross there??
Maybe if we quit giving free medical care, and free food, and free housing, and free spending money, and free education, and free driver licenses, and free undocumented jobs to illegal alien invaders, we'd be less of an "attractive nuisance".
Crazy talk. I know.
There is no organized Republican Party in New Mexico. Hasnt been for years. .......regatds - red
