From searching the internet they didn't close all of the grocery stores only the ones that had a covid outbreak. Which seems to have been a Walmart. So, uh, good.

What has actually happened is that some stores with four or more cases linked to them were required to shut down

Not to mention people will just break into the grocery stores to take the food. I mean what does he plan on doing having armed guards preventing people from getting food? Think of how that will play out.

Also their criteria for a shutdown of a grocery store is if 4 or more employees test positive for covid. Which is super fucking lenient lol

Hmm, a Republican who enjoys stretching the truth.

https://www.thecentersquare.com/new_mexico/new-mexico-governor-shuts-down-grocery-stores-put-on-covid-19-watch-list-for-two
/article_b4923f00-2ddc-11eb-ac57-6ba6068ca269.html

....is where I assume he got the news from, which states that those on a watch list were to be closed. And even still, "The Center Square is posing as a beacon of the "highest journalistic ethics," but in reality, it is a rebranding of an outlet deemed "highly ideological" and criticized for "occasional...gross distortions" of the facts."

https://www.prwatch.org/news/2019/05/13475/franklins-right-wing-watchdogorg-rebrands-center-square

It's all dog whistle.

Per his Twitter profile, a former congressional candidate, but there's no evidence of him actually running in the district he claims.

The checkmark doesn't mean they're in any way honest or trustworthy. You may want to reexamine the people you follow on Twitter if you're encountering this stuff with any regularity.

So they shut down several grocery stores. So now people have to drive further and congregate in larger lines for longer periods of time in the less places available. I am sure this won't backfire at all.

So what am I not getting? A local news affliate said "As of Friday, more than 20 essential businesses across the state have been shut down. Three have since been allowed to reopen. Nearly half of the closures are grocery stores or major retailers. This includes two Walmarts in Albuquerque, one in Santa Fe, a Santa Fe Target, and an Albertson's in Roswell to name a few."

It's technically correct (the best kind) but lacks nuance and fails to explain the reasoning. This is likely intentional to create a knee-jerk reaction of "they're arbitrarily closing our grocery stores - where will we get food? Tyranny!".

Apparently it worked.

By shutting down grocery stores, the New Mexico governor has determined that food is no longer essential because people are getting colds. She wants America to turn into Venezuela as quickly as possible.

Imagine presenting someone spouting this rhetorical garbage as a legitimate source.

I don't know what the governor has to do with it or why it's painted to be specific to grocery stores but it seems NM requires any businesses to close for 2 weeks if 4 or more employees get Covid within a 14 day time span.
