    Alaska senator says she's likely to back Trump disapproval

    ImDumb: 11 of the 16 states involved in the lawsuit to attempt to stop the United States National Emergency are at a minimum of 900 miles away( Illinois being the closet) from the nearest Mexican border. Alaska which is not involved in the lawsuit, but is now not willingly to support, is 1,670 miles from Mexico. If I'm Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski, I would be focusing on matters that affect my state, not an event that is 1,670 miles away.
