WA officials considered offering National Guard help to Trump at Canadian border

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Top aides in Washington Gov. Bob Ferguson’s office debated plans earlier this year to send 200 National Guard troops to the Canadian border to assist with the Trump administration’s attempts to stop drug trafficking.

Ferguson ultimately decided not to pursue the plan.

But Washington military officials went so far as to draft a letter on the governor’s behalf pitching the idea and commending President Donald Trump for his “continued efforts to combat the flow of illegal narcotics through the northern border.”

While the letter was never sent, the episode offers a window into how the new governor’s administration was trying to strike a balance working with a president whom Ferguson himself has sparred with repeatedly and who is deeply unpopular in much of Washington state.

1. "Ferguson did not request the letter and did not write it himself... though it was drafted as though it were from him"

on this ASAP and fire the goons that did it, otherwise he will be signing his exit from the Governor's office.
