Trump Suggests Renaming New Mexico, State Continues Lawsuit Against Meta
New Mexico's Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham has spoken out against a social media post from President Trump suggesting that the state be renamed 'New America.'
The governor called the president's suggestion an effort to distract Americans from his handling of the situation in Iran.
In other news, New Mexico is continuing its lawsuit against Meta, the parent company of Facebook, with claims that the social media giant lied about data protections and secretly allowed user information to be sold for targeted political advertising.
The Albuquerque City Council has also taken action by banning cryptocurrency ATMs in an effort to combat financial scammers who direct victims to deposit cash into these machines.
