Use of masked agents on #TohonoOodham land sparks Native outrage at Cherokee #DHS chief #MarkwayneMullin
by Eileen Mamaghani and Ellis Preston August 28, 2026

"It also infuriated #NativeAmericans who had higher hopes for Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin, the former Oklahoma senator who is only the second Indigenous cabinet member ever.
" 'This is especially disappointing when the DHS is headed by … a member of the #CherokeeNation,' said Angelique EagleWoman, director of the Native American Law and Sovereignty Institute at Mitchell Hamline School of Law in Minnesota.
"Agents from Customs and Border Protection and the Bureau of Indian Affairs entered the Tohono O’odham Nation at 4 a.m. on Tuesday to prevent tribal authorities from blocking contractors, according to a statement issued that day by the Nation.
"Jason Nichols, like Mullin a member of the Cherokee Nation, called the incursion by masked agents a 'step backward' in federal-tribal relations – and surprising, given Mullin’s 'knowledge on the importance of #TribalSovereignty.' "

#NativeAmericaCalling: Native Playlist with #KenPomeroy and #SamanthaCrain
Friday, October 3, 2025
"Two #NativeAmerican women from Oklahoma are carving distinct and inviting musical paths through the music world.
"Samantha Crain is out with her seventh album. 'Gumshoe' offers the latest installment in the veteran #Choctaw singer-songwriter’s musical evolution. The cover artwork — a photo of her own beadwork — is a clue to the roots she draws on for strength and inspiration.
"And Ken Pomeroy is out with her debut album. 'Cruel Joke' invokes a simmering depth of feeling that transcends her young age. She is a natural storyteller from the #CherokeeNation with a lot to say.
"Both of these creative artists are added to the Native Playlist at Native America Calling."
