Newsom Doubles National Guard Troops at California Border

‘It’s time for the Speaker, Mike Johnson, to stop playing politics’
By Grabien Staff

TRANSCRIPT:

NEWSOM: "We're back down at the border, Tijuana right behind me, San Diego sector. This is the San Ysidro port of entry, not too fat away, which is the largest in the Western hemisphere. We're just down here with the National Guard, meeting with customs agents as well as Border Patrol, talking about our partnerships. We have 390 National Guards, men and women, that have been working, particularly as it relates to fentanyl here in the state of California. Look at the bottom line, the end of the day, they need more resources. Everybody needs more resources. And the Republican Party has been consistently standing in the way of providing the resources to support the men and women working hard not only here at the border, but throughout the state of California and in this country to address the issues related to the border. It's time for them to stop playing politics. It's time for the Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, to stop playing politics and do the right thing."
