On Saturday, far-left U.S. Rep. Gabe Vasquez, who faces tough reelection odds next November, called in far-left Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham to help him rake in last-minute cash ahead of the New Year by appealing to the fringe progressive base.
“Right-wing extremism and petty politics are on the rise, yet Gabe is committed to working across the aisle to vote for common-sense legislation that moves our state/country forward,” wrote Lujan Grisham in a fundraising email, despite Vasquez siding with the far-left on basically everything, including instituting a new land grab in Deming and refusing to vote to help reduce inflation under the Joe Biden regime.
She continued, “Fighting for this amazing state means fighting for progress,” adding, “While his far-right opponent is reliant on extremists like Donald Trump, Mike Johnson, and Kevin McCarthy, we know your support will take him past the finish line and into another term of building progress for New Mexico and America.”
It is unclear why the governor is name-dropping McCarthy, who just quit Congress, but it appears to be a way to fluff up the fringe progressive base in the attempt to drum up cash ahead of 2024. Former Congresswoman Yvette Herrell is running again with the support of all the U.S. House GOP leadership.
Lujan Grisham is woefully unpopular, topping the rankings as one of the least popular governors in America. Those numbers surely worsened when she unilaterally attempted to snatch Bernalillo County and Albuquerque residents’ gun rights via executive order, which a Democrat-appointed judge slapped down.
Now, Vasquez heavily relying on the far-left governor to help him rake in some last-ditch donations appears to be a move toward the unconstitutional governor and her extreme positions on anything from abortion to energy policy.
Vasquez is grasping at straws.
It is clear that Vasquez is out of step when he moves to the left while the country moves to the right.
This really shows Vasquez’ desperation when he reaches out to a governor who is so toxic.
Vasquez lost Luna County when he moved to make it’s Florida Mountains a national monument against the ranchers” opposition.
Working across the aisle? What would despot MLG know about that?
And you are the far right but you seem to forget to mention that she was elected by the general public voters!! I wonder why?? Ignorance??
MAIL-IN BALLOTS, ballot harvesting and Dominion voting machines for the win, Tomas.
If Gabe is so foolish as to call in Her Thighness, queen mlg for help it just proves he’s got no business being in politics! That’s like grabbing an anvil when you jump off the Titanic.
BTW Gabe, how much of a cut did you have to give the “Big Gal” for that appearance?
What’s wrong with her face in the top pic?
She was born with it!
