#Epstein Survivor Describes #SexTrafficking by #Tucson #BorderPatrol -- While Agents Seize #TohonoOodham Land for #BorderWall Construction
An Epstein survivor describes the child sex trafficking of U.S. Customs and Border Protection, in Tucson, where she was a victim. At the same time, Tucson Border Patrol agents, heavily armed, are preventing Tohono O'odham tribal police from entering their own land to issue citations to border wall contractors. Meanwhile, the media has ignored a cartel witness from Sinaloa, Mexico, who described the trafficking of young girls in the Epstein files.

#Epstein's Associates were on the #NavajoNation
by #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews
Updated March 8, 2026"The newly released Epstein files reveal that #JeffreyEpstein's associates were on the Navajo Nation and that #NewMexico Gov. #BillRichardson kept Epstein informed of his dealings with Navajo President Ben Shelly.
"The Epstein files reveal two of Epstein's associates were on the Navajo Nation and told Epstein of their plans after he was convicted of #SexCrimes in 2008. The President of the United Nations General Assembly, #Slovakian, shared his travel plans with Epstein to go to #MonumentValley on the Navajo Nation.
"Another of Epstein's associates, #JoiIto, headed up the tech media of #MIT and told Epstein he was on the Navajo Nation.
"The year after Joi was on the Navajo Nation, MIT carried out screening of preschool children on the western portion of the Navajo Nation in #Shonto, #TubaCity and #MonumentValley, a disturbing fact coming after the release of the Epstein Files."

Epstein victims deserve spotlight. So do 5,700 Native women and girls reported missing each year
By Matt K. LewisContributing writer
Nov. 28, 2025"[C]aring about survivors means caring about exploitation, not just the victims of the most high-profile predator.
"The very same forces that failed Epstein’s victims continue to fail thousands of others.
"Here’s one example that probably didn’t come up over pumpkin pie: According to federal and tribal data, about 5,700 Native American girls are reported missing every year. (To put it in perspective, one of Epstein’s victims estimated she was' one story of a thousand,' but most estimates say 'dozens.' Whichever number you pick, the story is tragic.)
"The disappearances of Native American women — many of whom are presumed murdered, raped or trafficked — receive only a modicum of media attention, barely registering in public consciousness.
"Yet the crisis is so widespread that it has its own acronym — #MMIP, 'Missing or Murdered Indigenous Persons.'"Last November, Rep. Mike Simpson (R-Idaho), who heads the House Interior and Environment Subcommittee on Appropriations, wrote an op-ed pointing out that '40 percent of all victims of #SexTrafficking are identified as #AmericanIndian and #AlaskaNative women.' Forty percent. For context: Just 2.9% of people in the U.S. identify as Native.
"Simpson also noted that almost three-quarters of the Native American females who went missing in 2023 were children. Girls."

The Epstein Files: #IndianCountry, #FirstNations and the Global Impact
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Updated Feb. 25, 2026
Excerpt: "Will New Mexico's #Epstein Truth Commission Expose the Truth?
"The state of New Mexico has launched the #TruthCommission at Zorro Ranch. The question remains if this will expose the truth about the New Mexico governors involvement, investigate law enforcement and investigate Epstein's involvement with #NuclearScientists and #NuclearSecrets.
"New Mexico Gov. Bruce King sold Epstein the #ZorroRanch, 35 miles southeast of #SantaFe. New Mexico Gov. #BillRichardson was involved with Epstein for years and was at Epstein's properties were the trafficking and abuse occurred: The ranch, at Epstein's Manhattan apartment, and at his island
property. Gov. Richardson is accused of being an abuser."Gov. Bruce King's brother #GaryKing, while candidate for governor, along with #DebHaaland, who ran for Lt. Gov, used one of Epstein's planes."

[LIVE] #NationalDayOfMourning 2025, (27 November 25 @ 12pm ET)
"Since 1970, Indigenous people & their allies have gathered at noon on Cole's Hill in Plymouth to commemorate a National Day of Mourning on the US Thanksgiving holiday. Many Native people do not celebrate the arrival of the Pilgrims & other European settlers. Thanksgiving Day is a reminder of the genocide of millions of Native people, the theft of Native lands and the erasure of Native cultures. Participants in National Day of Mourning honor Indigenous ancestors and Native resilience. It is a day of remembrance and spiritual connection, as well as a protest against the racism and oppression that Indigenous people continue to experience worldwide."

ORIENTATION FOR NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING 11/27/25
WHAT IS NATIONAL DAY OF MOURNING?
An annual tradition since 1970, National Day of Mourning is a solemn, spiritual and highly political day. Many of us fast from sundown the day before through the afternoon of that day (and have a social after NDOM so that participants in NDOM can break their fasts). We are mourning our ancestors and the genocide of our peoples and the theft of our lands. NDOM is a day when we mourn, but we also feel our strength in action and solidarity.
WHEN AND WHERE IS DAY OF MOURNING?
Thursday, November 27, 2025 (U.S. "thanksgiving" day) at Cole's Hill, Plymouth, Massachusetts, 12 noon SHARP. Cole's Hill is the hill above Plymouth Rock in the Plymouth historic waterfront area. The rallies and marches will last until approximately 3 pm.
WILL THERE BE A MARCH?
Yes, there will be a march through the historic district of Plymouth. Plymouth agreed, as part of the settlement of 10/19/98, that UAINE may march on National Day of Mourning without the need for a permit as long as we give the town advance notice.
PROGRAM
Although we very much welcome our non-Native supporters to join us, it is a day when only Indigenous people speak about our history and the struggles that are taking place throughout the Americas. Speakers are by invitation only. This year's NDOM will be livestreamed from Plymouth.
Note that NDOM is not a powwow or commercial event, so we ask that people do not sell merchandise or distribute leaflets at the outdoor program. We will have UAINE t-shirts available for sale following the march.
We also ask that you do not eat (unless you must do so for medical reasons) at the outdoor speak-out and march out of respect for the participants who are fasting.
Dress for the weather!SOCIAL
There will be box lunches available for distribution after the march (turkey and vegan), but we will not have a full sit-down social.

@kimlockhartga That's exactly what happened to one of the original lead cops who was investigating the #HighwayOfTears #MMIWG cases up near #PrinceGeorge. When he pushed for more to be done to solve the #murders - most victims were Indigenous girls/women - he was bullied/harassed/ostracized by almost everyone in #RCMP. He quit - was harassed after leaving too. He became a private investigator & continued to work on the cases to try & bring some justice for the victims.

#WabanakiAlliance testifies in Washington about the crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women [#MMIW]
Maine Public | By Carol Bousquet
Published November 21, 2024"Murdered and missing indigenous women were the focus of a hearing before House Interior Appropriations leaders Wednesday in Washington.
"Wabanaki Alliance Executive Director Maulian Bryant testified that one in three indigenous women will be the victim of a violent crime in her lifetime. And she said stereotypes about indigenous people silence victims and make their cases more challenging to address.
"'When an Indigenous woman goes missing there's not the same attention and action as when a Caucasian woman does. The primary reasons for this are threefold: societal indifference, jurisdictional and coordination issues, and a lack of resources for tribal law enforcement agencies. The false conceptions of our people lead to victim blaming and attitudes that minimize attention given to these cases,' Bryant said.
"The 1980 Maine Indian Claims Settlement Act, Bryant said, has led to the dismissal of tribal cases because they were 'kicked out to state courts' and resulted in 'zero convictions.'
"'The state was very adept at their negotiating, and it's kept us oppressed and held back from our full experience as federally recognized tribal nations," she said. 'We are heavily restricted by this settlement, and it impacts this crisis as well.'
"Reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act in 2022 means Maine tribes are now able to handle criminal cases on tribal lands.
"But Bryant said more resources are needed for tribal law enforcement training and ensuring that data on indigenous crimes against women are collected and shared with state and federal agencies that can help to bring justice to victims.
"Congresswoman Chellie Pingree, ranking member of the Interior, Environment, and Related Agencies Subcommittee, invited Bryant to testify.
"In a statement, Pingree said there is a need for additional funding for staffing and public safety, and justice programs that can comprehensively address this crisis. 'That's why it's imperative we pass a full year Interior Appropriations bill and not have programs constrained by operating under a Continuing Resolution,' she said.
"The 2023 launch of the Department of Justice Missing and Murdered Indigenous Person Regional Outreach Program has placed ten attorneys and coordinators in five designated regions across the United States to help respond to cases, according to Pingree."

Coast #Salish Water Warriors: Voices for the Water at the #SalishSea Assembly in #Seattle
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews at #Indybay, Nov. 8, 2024
"The defenders are battling the dirty energy #corporations poisoning the land, water and air in western #Canada and #WashingtonState, and the waters of the Salish Sea. The rivers from British Columbia in Canada and Washington State come together in the Salish Sea on their journey to the #PacificOcean.
"The dead birds floating in the Alberta tar sands #TailingPonds, the #ManCamps linked to missing and murdered Indigenous girls, and the increased oil tankers in the Salish Sea -- are all parts of the dirty oil business of the Trans Mountain pipeline pouring out of Alberta's dirty tar sands in Canada, bound for #OilTankers in the Salish Sea.
"The destruction, and theft of land, is a continuation of the #genocidal residential school system. Native children were kidnapped, ripped from their families, and incarcerated in the abusive schools operated by Canada and the churches.
"'We can't drink water from there any more,' said Jean, who lives close to the Alberta tar sands in her homeland. 'I was born into this destruction.
"'Thousands of birds are dead in the tailing ponds.'"

From 2019:
#BlackfeetNation to host first-ever Murdered and Missing
#IndigenousWomen tribunal in the U.S.Posted on September 26, 2019 Last Read Indians, via #CensoredNews
#MMIW tribunal to be held at the Blackfeet Community College in Browning, Montana the weekend of October 4-5 [2019]
"'This is not just a Blackfeet or #Montana tribes’ tragedy, it is an #IndianCountry tragedy, and a national and international disgrace. This is a multi-generational epidemic the federal government has done nothing to address – even less than the #CanadianGovernment – which was found to be complicit in ‘deliberate race, identity and gender-based genocide’ by its own National Inquiry into MMIW,' said Chairman Tim Davis of the Blackfeet Nation.

"'The Blackfeet Nation is uniquely positioned to host this first of its kind MMIW tribunal in the lower-48 states. The Blackfeet Tribe (Amskapi Pikuni), a member of the Blackfoot Confederacy along with its three sister tribes – the #Piikani, #Blood and #Siksika, located in #AlbertaCanada, stands in solidarity in combatting the issue of MMIW (MMIP) in Indian country. “The truth is that we live in a country whose laws and institutions perpetuate violations of basic human and Indigenous rights. These violations amount to nothing less than the deliberate, often covert campaign of genocide against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA people,' wrote Chief Commissioner Marion Buller in Reclaiming Power and Place, the final report of Canada’s National Inquiry into Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Girls published on June 3, 2019.
“'We are not divided by the border we are united in our grief. Many women and children stolen from our communities are trafficked back and forth between the US and Canada,' explained Chairman Davis.
Tribal members constitute seven percent of Montana’s population, but the state identifies some 26 percent of missing persons as Native American. Available evidence suggests that may be a low estimate. Last year’s Urban Indian Health Institute Report identified Montana as the state with the fifth highest incidence of MMIW cases. Billings, which had the same disturbing ranking among cities, is a known-hub on the I-90 corridor through #CrowNation, #Cheyenne and #LakotaDakota country to Minnesota, along which indigenous women and children are trafficked into sex slavery. The western 'track' runs from Missoula to Seattle, Washington. As of spring 2019, Montana had not submitted any MMIW data to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. 'For those abducted into sex-slavery, the I-90 corridor is a second #HighwayOfTears, said Chairman Davis, drawing a comparison to the infamous highway in #BritishColumbia cited in #ReclaimingPowerAndPlace."Read more:

..a bigger issue than whether #Pickton survives is the potential destruction of the #evidence.
“I act as legal counsel for 16 children of nine women who were killed by #RobertPickton,” he said. “It’s in their interest to preserve the evidence seized by the #RCMP on the Pickton farm to allow my clients to prove that Robert Pickton & #DavidPickton caused them to suffer loss.”

#MMIWG This area has been #dangerous for #Indigenous & #POC folks(especially girls/women) & it's along #HighwayOfTears . #ManCamps are dangerous for us & we've been trying to #SoundTheAlarms for YEARS. It's all #RCMP patrolled up there & we don't trust them for good reasons! They're more likely to hurt than help us (lived experience & experiences from friends). #StopManCamps #EndManCamps
These man camps fuel increased levels of violent crime & social issues up North.
