Nevada’s GOP governor: Border duty not ‘an appropriate use' of National Guard
The Hill ^ | April 7, 2018 | Jacqueline Thomsen

Nevada’s GOP governor has come out against President Trump’s plan to send the National Guard to the U.S.-Mexico border.

A spokeswoman for Gov. Brian Sandoval said in an email to the Associated Press Friday that Sandoval doesn’t believe deploying members to the border would be “an appropriate use” of the National Guard.

Defense Secretary James Mattis signed a memo Friday authorizing the National Guard to deploy up to 4,000 troops to the border.

Trump had announced last week that the military would send troops to defend the southern border until his border wall was completed. The White House later clarified that the National Guard would be sent to the border.

Arizona and Texas have both stated that they will send troops to the border starting this weekend.

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown (D) vowed Thursday to reject the request to send National Guard troops to the border.

I’d prefer drawing regular troops out of various Third World hell holes, and redeploying them domestically.

Sandoval is a Cheap Labor Express stooge, just like Heller.

Nearly 6,000 ER’s and NG’s were KIA in Vietnam, I see no problem in sending them to the border of their own country!

Our local WalMarts here in Reno have more people speaking Mexican than English. Not as bad as El Paso, but often seems more Spanish than English spoken in the stores. All illegal I figure.

On Friday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “Outnumbered Overtime,” Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick (R) said he hopes the National Guard stays on the border “until hell freezes over, until that wall is built.”

Patrick says he sees the National Guard staying on the border “as long as it takes.” Patrick continued that the most recent deployment of the National Guard to the border had “a significant impact.”

Good Find! Thanks for posting this!:

Oregon Gov. Kate Brown (D) vowed Thursday to reject the request to send National Guard troops to the border.

Must be a nice situation for him. His ethnic loyalty is perfectly aligned with his fealty to his cheap labor donors on this issue. With Republicans like him, who needs Democrats?

“Oregon Gov. Kate Brown (D) vowed Thursday to reject the request to send National Guard troops to the border.”

Presumably she must be referring to the Oregon/California border?

Must use a lot of cheap Mexicans somewhere in Nevada, eh?

Careful now. Reality re illegals can cause a lot of emotional triggering with the mentally ill lefties across America.

“Nevada has the highest proportion of illegal immigrants of any U.S. state at 7.6 percent of its population while the number of illegal immigrants nationwide is leveling off at about 11.2 million, according to a study released on Tuesday.”

His state doesn’t share a border with Mexico.

I've seen a couple references to this, including from my own worthless governor.

What is the rule or law regarding the shared border?

Thanks.

At least not by any illegal immigrants! Same goes for the meat packing factory in Tennessee.

Illegals can GTFO or be arrested and become documented illegal aliens with real verifiable arrest records awaiting deportation.

All these "Govorners" that dont want to play "America" can be arrested right along side the illegals for conspiracy and treason.

The same Governor who can’t convince the FBI to do background checks for private individuals who sell guns to other private individuals. See a previous post.
Poster boy for a RINO Trump hater.

Dan Schwartz is running for governor against Never Trumper and Sandoval sidekick Laxalt Junior. Don’t know much about Schwartz but slimey Laxalt was my neighbor recently and he is definitely a Never Trumper. Trying to remember who he spoke for at our precinct caucus but it definitely was not Trump.
