    TITLE: U.S. Border Wall Desecrates Sacred Sites, Indigenous Leaders Say

    URL: socialpsychology.org/client/re

    Source: PBS News Hour

    Indigenous leaders say that in the Trump administration's rush to build border walls, contractors are desecrating Native American sacred places and cultural sites at an unprecedented pace, more than 170 years after the international boundary split the territories of dozens of tribes. The White House has devoted $46 billion to wall construction, which has ramped up along the 1,954-mile border even as illegal crossings have fallen to historic lows.

  3. A Somewhat Busier Border in April

    April 2026 saw more Border Patrol apprehensions of migrants at the U.S.-Mexico border (8,943) than any month since the Trump administration began. It’s probably seasonal: migration is often highest in spring and declines in summer.

  6. Ceuta’s 19-Meter Narco Labyrinth: Rails, Cranes, and a Fridge Door to the Drug Trade

    Not a movie set—this was a real, rail-equipped smuggling tunnel running under the border. Yes, with trolleys.

    Dear Cherubs, Spanish police just dismantled what looks like the world’s most over-engineered basement project—a 19-meter-deep, multi-level drug tunnel linking Morocco to Ceuta, complete with its own rail system and mini-cranes for hauling hashish pallets like it was rush hour on the underground.

    The whole setup was tucked beneath an unassuming warehouse in Ceuta’s El Tarajal industrial zone, right on the North African border. Entry? A massive soundproof refrigerator that swung open like a bad spy thriller prop. Drop 19 meters down a shaft, hit a storage chamber nicknamed the “narcodespensa” for stacking bales on pallets, then crawl through a narrow 80-centimeter-wide, 1.2-meter-high passage rigged with trolleys, pulleys, and rails straight into Moroccan territory. It was giving mine-shaft-meets-FedEx, with pumping systems to keep the water out and enough insulation to stay whisper-quiet.

    HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT

    Investigators from Spain’s National Police couldn’t even measure the full length because the far end is flooded, but the engineering screamed pro-level planning. This wasn’t some amateur dig; it was built to move serious volume without drawing eyes—or ears—from the heavily guarded border above. Operation Ares, which kicked off in February 2025, wrapped up with raids across Ceuta, Andalusia, and Galicia, nabbing 27 people and more than 17 tons of hashish plus €1.43 million in cash.

    THE TUNNEL BOSS BEHIND IT ALL

    Credit (or blame) goes to the Moroccan national police dubbed the “Narco-Architect,” already suspected in a similar tunnel busted in Ceuta last year. According to Spanish authorities, he designed this maze-like infrastructure for a powerful hashish network feeding Spain and beyond. The raid also turned up luxury vehicles, comms gear, and even some cocaine on the side. It’s a neat reminder that while border fences get taller, the folks on the other side keep getting cleverer underground.

    Ceuta’s position as a Spanish enclave on Morocco’s coast has long made it prime real estate for smuggling, but this level of sophistication raises the bar. No more basic speedboats or backpacks over the fence—now it’s subterranean logistics with better tech than some small businesses. Police called it a major blow to one of Spain’s biggest hashish outfits, and fair play: shutting down a rail-equipped drug subway is the kind of win that deserves a slow clap. Still, bet the architects are already sketching tunnel 3.0 somewhere out of sight.
