Yesterday president Trump announced he would be sending National Guard troops to the Southern border to assist immigration officers in stemming the flow of illegal aliens into this country. Naturally liberals are triggered by this even though Obama did the exact same thing. Oregon’s liberal governor says she will not allow her state’s National Guard to be deployed along the US/Mexico border. You know, that border that runs along California, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas, but not Oregon? Even crazier is that she, as the governor of the state, has no idea that she doesn’t have the power to stop the President from doing this.
Kate Brown is the governor of Oregon. Her claim to fame is that she is the first openly bi-sexual governor, which is to say she has no claim to fame. Nor does she have any claim on sanity. Check out her tweet:
If @realDonaldTrump asks me to deploy Oregon Guard troops to the Mexico border, I’ll say no. As Commander of Oregon’s Guard, I’m deeply troubled by Trump’s plan to militarize our border.

“If @realDonaldTrump asks me to deploy Oregon Guard troops to the Mexico border, I’ll say no. As Commander of Oregon’s Guard, I’m deeply troubled by Trump’s plan to militarize our border,” wrote Brown.
She wasn’t deeply troubled by Obama’s plan to militarize the border, but as I all ready pointed out, the left doesn’t care when one of their own does something. It’s only bad if Trump does it. She is all not deeply troubled by the the drugs and violence that come across our largely unprotected Southern border and that’s because liberals love illegal aliens more than Americans. Hey, that’s where their votes come from.
Someone must have asked Brown if Trump had actually asked her about deploying the Oregon Guard because she tweeted out this clarification:
There’s been no outreach by the President or federal officials, and I have no intention of allowing Oregon’s guard troops to be used to distract from his troubles in Washington.

“There’s been no outreach by the President or federal officials, and I have no intention of allowing Oregon’s guard troops to be used to distract from his troubles in Washington,” Brown wrote.
Oh, so Trump hasn’t asked for help, but she’s denying it to him anyway? What a bold stance. It’s as pathetic as saying you will refuse to got to a party that you were not invited to. Nobody cares and you are a sad woman.
The thing is, should Trump decide to use the Oregon Nation Guard, there’s not a damn thing Brown can do to stop him. The National Guard is the US military. They can be under the command of the various states, but if the President decided to mobilize them, it’s within his power to do so. The President can “nationalize” the Guards from any state for any reason: to fight in a war, to help with disaster relief, and even to provide border security.
You’d think that as Oregon’s governor, AKA the commander of the Oregon National Guard, that Brown would be aware of this, but she’s not. I suspect this isn’t the only reason why she is woefully unqualified for the position.
