Gavin Newsom Doubles National Guard Troops at California Border
Story by Kaitlin Lewis • 10h


California Governor Gavin Newsom has more than doubled the number of National Guard troops along his state's southern border with Mexico in efforts to crack down on "deadly drugs."

In a news release Thursday, Newsom's office said that California's National Guard County Drug Task Force operations have been boosted from 155 service members to nearly 400. The move comes as state and federal officials grapple with a spike in border encounters in recent years. The rise in opioid use and overdoses in the U.S. has also been linked to drug smuggling across the southern border.
 
"Our top priority is the safety of our communities statewide," Newsom said in the release. "By working with state, local, and federal partners to take down transnational organizations and the illegal drugs they attempt to bring into our state, the state's Counter Drug Taskforce is making a profound difference to hold smugglers accountable and take deadly drugs off our streets."

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

As we have already seen from our beloved president, such pronouncements are absolutely meaningless without the authority to actually enforce the law. :nono:
