Gun control and George Soros.
How could a state governor go wrong?
This is how. Turn to The New York Post for the explanation. https://nypost.com/2023/09/09/
The Post headline brought the two together with the same ease as dumping ice cream on pie:
Soros-backed New Mexico governor riles conservatives with firearm suspension order
The Post reports:
“New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham, whose campaign was backed by left-wing billionaire George Soros, riled up conservatives and gun owners after she issued an emergency order suspending the right to carry firearms in public in Albuquerque and the surrounding county for at least 30 days.
…Grisham’s move met with a backlash on social media, especially from X owner Elon Musk, who did not mince words.
‘At risk of stating what should be obvious, deliberately violating the Constitution is next-level illegal,’ Musk posted on X. ‘How soon can this person be removed from office?’”
This incident with Governor Grisham is similar to the numerous stories out there about this-that-o-the-other Big City Democrat District Attorney being pilloried for not being tough on crime while having, yes indeed, big backing from the billionaire leftist. But it appears to be the first time a state governor has used their executive power to unilaterally implement a far-left policy and be quickly tied to Soros.
The obvious question now is whether the New Mexico governor will be the first- and last.
Stay tuned.
