California Gov. Gavin Newsom was accused of fabricating a claim about National Guard troops from his state helping to solve the border crisis.
California Governor Gavin Newsom is under fire for proclaiming that the state has doubled the amount of National Guard at the U.S. Southern Border, a claim that some have suggested is an outright fabrication. On Thursday, Newsom posted a video to social media from the San Ysidro Port of Entry. In it, he said his team was meeting with the National Guard as well as Customs and Border Patrol agents.
In his video caption, Newsom claimed California had doubled the number of National Guard troops at the border. OutKick host Tomi Lahren said on 'Fox & Friends First,' that Fox News national correspondent Bill Melugin and Fox News correspondent Matt Finn 'smacked down' and 'rebuffed' Newsom's claims.
He said CA soldiers are helping with drug interdiction at ports of entry – not the mass crossing hot spots in Jacumba. If the Governor’s office has any images of CA National Guard helping Border Patrol in Jacumba, I’m happy to update,' he added. Finn also weighed in on Newsom’s video. 'We’re at the CA border right now in Jacumba, Governor Newsom. We see migrants illegally crossing all hours of the day. From China, Iran, Yemen. Nepal.
