As we reported on May 7th, New Mexico's Trump-hating open-borders governor took radical actions just to spite the President — but now that the results are proving disastrous for her state, she is begging the Feds for more help with the border!
You can't make this up, folks.
Trump deployed National Guard and U.S. Army troops to the Mexican border to deal with a huge increase in illegal entries in January.
In act of what she called “resistance” against the president, New Mexico’s Democratic governor, Michelle 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.
The results have been nothing short of disastrous, with drug smuggling activities “exploding” since her deranged move.
As the NY Post reported, Mexican drug cartels and possibly terrorists have been thriving in New Mexico since two border patrol checkpoints were shut down as a result of Lujan Grisham’s withdrawal -- with a 1,700% increase is drug smuggling alone in just 3 months.
But now, Lujan Grisham is seeking the federal government's assistance to manage the impacts of the border crisis on New Mexico.
As KOAT-TV reports:

Impeach her! She’s just another Lujan POS who thought that New Mexico was their private fiefdom.
Get rid of the leftist bitch before more good people die.
[Just in case any NM leftist wonders why I want Lujan and the Democrats gone, I work on environmental cleanup cases including major ones in NM. I want that state to be as clean and sane as can be. It once was before Richardson, Castro Brothers, and the Lujans turned it into a leftist craphole.
She wants the money to ‘tend to the needs’ of the extra illegals she’s letting in....
To quote Forest Gump - “Stupid is as stupid does.”

It's way more than two that have been shut down:
I-10, east of El Paso and west of Las Cruces
US-54 north of El Paso,
I-25 north of Las Cruces
US-85 north of Las Cruces
US 70 east of Las Cruces
US-62-180 northeast of El Paso.
IF you make your way into the US and don't surrender to the Border Patrol, you have a free pass to the interior of the country. All BP persons manning those stations have been sent to the border to deal with the hundreds that are surrendering themselves most everyday all along the entire border, not just New Mexico.
A: She still doesn't actually want the border enforced; She just wants federal Taxpayer money
B: You take Cartel money to make their smuggling easier, then renege on the deal, they are gonna want more than a refund.
