Use of masked agents on #TohonoOodham land sparks Native outrage at Cherokee #DHS chief #MarkwayneMullin
by Eileen Mamaghani and Ellis Preston August 28, 2026
WASHINGTON – "The recent incursion by masked federal agents on Tohono O’odham land didn’t just anger that tribe, which has been trying to block #BorderWall construction along the remote stretch it controls in #Arizona.
"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.' "

My neighbors got their #CherokeeNation Tribal IDs updated at an outreach event in Chicago yesterday. They also got to meet Principal Chief Chuck Hoskins.
Outreach like this is great, I wish more Native Nations would do it in Chicago.

Hype for the Future 148S: Reservations in Northern Oklahoma
Introduction In the northeastern portion of the State of Oklahoma, north of the Chickasaw and Choctaw Nations, are tribal reservations associated with the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, the Cherokee Nation, the Seminole Nation, and the Osage Nation. Each nation is associated with a different tribe of Native Americans, the Osage of whom were not included in the historical definition of the “Five Civilized Tribes.” Counties The counties associated with the Cherokee in the State of Oklahoma are […] -
May 23, 1838 - U.S. General Winfield Scott began the forced removal of the Cherokee from North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, and Tennessee, and their detention in forts built for that purpose. He was implementing the Treaty of New Echota, signed by a few members of the tribe relinquishing their lands for a payment of $5 million, under orders from President Martin Van Buren.
16,000 Cherokee were then driven on foot to “Indian Territory” (what is now Oklahoma). Of those who set out on the forced march known as the “The Trail of Tears,” nearly one-quarter died along the way or as a result of the relocation.
