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.' "

Dispatch from the emerging #BorderWall #blockade camp – #LochielAZ
by thecollective, August 22, 2026
Except: "This camp has illuminated a potential flashpoint for more widespread confrontation against the state, channeling the mounting frustrations against the Trump administration into clear targets with logistical vulnerabilities. Many are choosing to directly confront the machinery of state violence for the first time in their lives. People who spend time at camp are having transformative experiences, finding themselves more capable, courageous and driven to fight than they had previously believed.
If new initiatives continue to emerge, this could be just the beginning of a catalyzing cycle of struggle. The forces of tomorrow’s battles for liberation have an opportunity to converge, experiment, and train themselves today in the southern borderlands and at the offices and homes of complicit contractors.
"With the current situation, every single person who comes to camp ready to work makes a huge impact. Skills in tree climbing and blockades are valuable, but all the work of maintaining a camp is just as needed. Anyone who is ready to get to work and bring conviviality to camp should start making plans immediately. Small, coordinated groups would be especially valuable. Even a few days at camp can be enough time to improve infrastructure, teach new skills, broaden political horizons and offer a break to the overworked locals.
"Similarly, any efforts to expand the struggle could make big impacts. Fisher has operations in many states, and wall construction is underway or threatened all across the border, notably in #BigBendTX, where a sizable campaign against it has been building. If accessible on-ramps to confrontation continue to open up, there seem to be many people eager to step into whatever roles they can.
"For those who want to contribute to the building up of revolutionary forces, particularly if you come from anti-state and direct action backgrounds, here is a clear opening. Talk with your comrades where you live. Check in with your contacts in #Arizona. Pool your resources and send a crew or even just one person to #Lochiel as soon as you can. Find out how else you can contribute to the struggle, and take it as an opportunity to grow your own skills and invite new comrades into collaboration.
"The incredible beauty of this land cannot be understated. Grandmother is situated in a lush valley full of towering #cottonwoods and myriad wildlife. Epic lightning storms come out of nowhere. The arid climate is currently exploding with life from the generous monsoon rains. An absence of industrial noise leaves space for cicadas, coyotes, migratory birds, rustling cottonwood leaves and small cattle herds to be heard. Jaguars and ranchers alike ignore the imaginary line, casually stepping across to live freely as anyone should. Border patrol agents lurk along roadsides while white trucks and heavy machinery move workers and materials along a steep dirt road to strengthen the colonial infrastructure of severance. Amidst all of this, a handful of brave souls are hauling water jugs, rigging tarps, singing, dancing, dreaming and strategizing. You ought to come meet them."

The Hungry Hounds: US #BorderPatrol Lurks at #TohonoOodhamNation Border
@bsnorrell.blogspot.com ,
August 19, 2026"The U.S. Border Patrol lurks awaiting its prey at the border of the #TohonoOodham Nation, near the Nation's new 'NO TRESPASSING" signs directed at border wall contractors.
"The US Border Patrol is part of Homeland Security and its plan to #seize the Nation's land for the border wall. The US #BorderPatrol already has open access to the Tohono O'odham Nation, and a #SpySystem in place to track #Oodham and watch them.
The #Israeli built #Elbit Systems spy towers track O'odham on the Nation, with live video feed. US Border Patrol agents have been arrested for murder, serial rape, assault, kidnapping, drug running and spotting for the cartels all along the border. The facts are ignored by #MainstreamMedia.
"US Border Patrol agents in this area murdered Raymond Mattia, Tohono O'odham, at his home. His body showed 11 bullets, and the wounds of rifle butts and broken bones. Raymond told #CensoredNews before he was murdered that he had video-taped US Border Patrol agents running drugs with the cartels past his home at the border. This evidence disappeared after it was submitted.
" #OpheliaRivas , Tohono O'odham, points out that the three US Border Patrol agents who murdered her lifelong friend have never been charged. A tribal police officer, a non-Indian, had a vendetta exposed in the voice evidence. He was never charged for his role leading the agents to Raymond's home where they murdered him."

Contesting #Surveillance Infrastructure on #IndigenousLands
by #OpheliaRivas, #CaitlinBlanchfield, and #NinaKolowratnik
"The broad slope and rounded crest of O’ks Tak’am Do’ak outline the profile of a woman sitting and facing the west. Her name is O’ks Ta’kam. She is part the O’odham origin story, passed down through oral history. She sits there vigilant, a warrior protecting, and will warn the people when a catastrophic event will occur. When this event comes, she will stand and gather the smallest creatures in her skirt to protect them.
"The mountain forms part of the Tak’Va’Vak range which cuts through #TohonoOodham land, joining peaks like Han’a-mek and Ma’mke-mad. These mountains are known as a place to gather sweet fruits from the chu-chues (organ pipe cactus). They are home to caves, springs, and seasonal water holes. Each year ceremonies and hunts take place all across the Tak’Va’Vak, and trails lead through the mountain passes, connecting the springs at A’al Va’pai (Quitobaqito) to O’odham villages in Sonora, and leading all the way to the salty Ge-Ka-ch’k (Sea of Cortez). The mountains hold deer, mountain rams, javalina. They hold burial places. Medicines grow there. In the evening they are especially beautiful, bathed in crimson.
"The Tak’Va’Vak range also forms one border of the Tohono O’odham Nation. The boundary runs along the ridge line and separates the reservation from the Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument, a United States national park to the west.
"The border with the #NationalMonument is one of three that divide Tohono O’odham Nation from the #UnitedStates; the reservation’s southern border is with #Mexico. It is this border that dominates the others—both in its real effects and in media representations—and with good reason, especially in the last decades, and acutely in the present moment. It separates the Tohono O’odham in Sonora from those in Arizona, dividing the people; and its securitization has brought violence and destruction to O’odham lands on both sides in different ways. Yet these two borders—one between nation states and one between reservation and national park—work together: they are part of the same process of colonialism and dispossession that have been constricting O’odham life for hundreds of years. The construction of the US-Mexico border is intertwined with the expropriation of #IndigenousLand and the subsequent creation of #NativeAmerican reservations as much as it is with United States expansionism and policies of exclusion. More than that, the US-Mexico border, and the many weapons, technologies of surveillance, and #BorderPatrol officers that comprise it, is an extension of the United States’ ongoing, violent, and racialized campaign to contain and assimilate Indigenous peoples—it is a settler colonial border. But as Salt River Pima-Maricopa scholar #FantasiaPainter reminds us, the #borderlands are not yet settled, and they are unsettled: this is because of the refusal of Tohono O’odham and other #IndigenousPeoples to see and accept their lands as not their own."

Federal Contractors Begin #BorderWall Construction in #BigBend #NationalPark
via #CensoredNews
"New Mexico threatens to revoke licenses of contractors drilling water wells in drought-stricken #NewMexico. The #TohonoOodham Nation has filed for an injunction to halt the Trump administration from seizing its tribal land for the border wall in Arizona, pointing out that only Congress can diminish its land.
"Border Wall construction will destroy O'odham burial places and #SacredSites. Today, contractors are destroying the fragile tree life at Big Bend in Texas. Today is Day 10 of a tree sitter and supporters halting border wall contractors in Lochiel, Arizona, east of Nogales." -- Censored News
Federal Contractors Begin Border Construction in Big Bend National Park
“This is the most heinous attack on an American national park in generations,” said Laiken Jordahl, national public lands advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity.
By Center for Biological Diversity, Censored News, August 7, 2026
TERLINGUA, Texas— "Bulldozers broke ground today on border barrier and road construction in Big Bend National Park amid widespread bipartisan opposition. Videos shared with the Center for Biological Diversity show contractors plowing through native vegetation along the Rio Grande’s riparian corridor, with the iconic Santa Elena Canyon visible in the background.
" 'This is the most heinous attack on an American national park in generations,' said Laiken Jordahl, national public lands advocate at the Center for Biological Diversity.
" 'The administration is preparing to blast hundreds of miles of destructive roads through the wildest place left in Texas and cut off public access to the Rio Grande, all to enrich private contractors. Big Bend belongs to us all, and sacrificing it is a betrayal of every Texan and every American who believes our national parks should be protected. We won’t stop fighting this reckless assault on Big Bend National Park and America’s natural heritage until this destruction ends.'
"Department of Homeland Security contractors have stockpiled heavy equipment across the Big Bend region, where staging yards have been cleared, worker camps built and water wells drilled.
"According to Customs and Border Protection’s [ #CBP ] online map, the agency plans to build vehicle barriers and patrol roads across Big Bend National Park, including in rugged and remote areas such as Mariscal Mountain that would require extensive dynamite blasting. The plans also include building in remote walled canyons where no unauthorized vehicle crossings have been documented and where vehicles cannot access the border with Mexico.
"In May the Department of Homeland Security awarded a $1.7 billion contract for border work through the national park. In June the department waived dozens of #EnvironmentalLaws — including the National Park Service Organic Act, #EndangeredSpecies Act and National Wild and Scenic Rivers Act — to authorize construction of border barriers, roads and lighting through Big Bend National Park. It was the first time in U.S. history that the federal government had waived such a broad set of environmental protections for construction inside a national park.
"The Center sued the Department of Homeland Security, saying the waivers violated the Constitution by taking actions with vast economic and political consequences without congressional authorization. That case is ongoing."

The Threat on #Oodham Lands
By Ophelia Rivas, Censored News, July 12, 2026
O’odham VOICE Against the WALL
"The U.S. Department of Homeland Security threatens to construct the Metal Wall on 62 miles of #TohonoOodham Nations lands adjacent the United States and Mexico International border.
"The O’odham Way of Life is dismissed in waiving national protective laws, as was done with the 2006 Secure Fence Act Vehicle Barrier and the 2014 Arizona Border Surveillance Technology Plan.
"The Integrated Fixed Towers were constructed, destroying and removing ancient human remains and burial property, and blowing up hills and mountains of great cultural significance to the O’odham.
"Along the 62 miles of O’odham lands the #BorderPatrol has been using military fear tactics on the people, and all their activities are unmonitored.
"Because he spoke out about border patrol and tribal police corruption, unarmed hereditary ceremony leader #RaymondMattia Sr was shot and killed by United States military called the border patrol along with a non-American Indian Tohono O’odham Nation Police Officer.
"Thirty-eight (38) bullets were shot at Ray, eleven (11) bullets hit his body as Ray stood unarmed in front of his house. Their brutal Excessive Force attack on a dying man is recorded in the Tucson Medical Examiners Report as blunt force trauma, his body marked by rifle butts, with cuts on his head, his nose and face, broken 12th rib and broken right arm.
"The border patrol officers, Scott Whitehouse, Dan Sifuentes and Ivan Torralva, and Tohono O’odham tribal police Cedric Randle, were not charged for killing Ray."

#ICE arrests 10,000 in 5 days, a sharp late-June surge in Trump’s deportation push
By REBECCA SANTANA, July 2, 2026
WASHINGTON (AP) — "Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested 10,000 people over a five-day period at the end of June, marking a major push by the agency tasked with carrying out the Trump administration’s mass deportations agenda.
"The arrest numbers, obtained from a person familiar with the information who spoke anonymously to discuss data that has not been publicly released, comes after the agency shifted its approach from high-profile arrest sweeps in major American cities to quieter ways to reach President Donald Trump’s deportation goals.
"The figures indicate that while the administration is no longer cracking down on individual cities, the arrests continue and are surging.
"The total number of arrests during the five-day period starting Friday and ending Tuesday translates into roughly 2,000 arrests per day. It was not clear where the arrests had taken place.
"The spike in arrests was first reported by The New York Times.
“Since Day One, DHS law enforcement has been delivering on President Trump’s promise to the American people to arrest and deport criminal illegal aliens including murderers, rapists, pedophiles [START WITH THE WHITE HOUSE!!!], gang members [#NeoNazis?], and terrorists [Blackwater?],” said the Department of Homeland Security in a statement. 'Our message is clear: if you come to our country illegally, we will find you, we will arrest you, and we will deport you.'
"The arrests news also comes as the number of people entered into ICE detention facilities climbed in June to roughly 39,000 after hovering around 30,000 per month since February, according to information obtained by The Associated Press.
"ICE doesn’t publicly release arrest data, making exact comparisons with previous periods difficult. But according to data provided to UC Berkeley’s Deportation Data Project and analyzed by The Associated Press, 2,000 arrests per day would mark a sharp increase over previous periods."

#Trump Calls His Enemies Terrorists. Does That Mean He Can Just Kill Them?
From boat strikes to killings in the streets of Minnesota to NSPM-7, the White House leans on the word “terror” to justify its violence.
Nick Turse, February 2 2026
" ' #Terrorist ' is the word that the Trump administration employs to describe the victims of its most egregious acts of #StateViolence.
"President Donald Trump has used the word 'terrorist' to justify the #ExtrajudicialKillings of civilians in the #CaribbeanSea and #PacificOcean. And his deputies used it to explain away the killings of #AlexPretti and #ReneeGood in Minneapolis by federal agents." 'Earlier this morning, on my Orders, U.S. Military Forces conducted a kinetic strike against positively identified Tren de Aragua #NarcoTerrorists,' Trump wrote following the initial boat strike on September 2, 2025. He said the attack 'occurred while the terrorists were at sea in International waters.'
"Secretary of Homeland Security #KristiNoem said that Good and Pretti were guilty of '#DomesticTerrorism.' And top White House adviser #StephenMiller used similar language to describe both.
"These killings were conducted thousands of miles apart by different agencies in very different contexts. But the connection between them could be more than semantic."

“Terrorist”: How #ICE Weaponized 9/11’s Scarlet Letter
#SpencerAckerman on how the politics of #counterterrorism led to ICE and #CBP completing their transformation into a #DeathSquad — and why the agencies are unreformable.
The Intercept Briefing
February 6 2026"The word 'terrorist' wasn’t coined on September 11, 2001, but the defining event of the early 21st century ushered it in as the United States’ go-to term for demonizing outsiders and dissenters alike. The so-called “war on terror” transformed the way the U.S. wields power at home and abroad, enabling mass surveillance and a crackdown on the right to free speech. It became reflexive for the U.S. to disparage immigrants and protesters as supporters of terrorism.
"President Donald Trump has embraced this model and manipulated it for his own ends, as author Spencer Ackerman points out. The #Trump administration often peddles spurious accusations of #terrorism against the targets of its #ImmigrationRaids."

'An impossibility': Negotiations to reform ICE sputter as shutdown looms for DHS
Congress has two weeks to fund DHS as Democrats demand changes to rein in #ICE and #CBP. It's not going well. The top Senate Republican doubts they'll reach a deal in time.
Feb. 5, 2026, 8:01 PM EST
By Frank Thorp V, Sahil Kapur and Julie TsirkinExcerpt: "Another complication is that Republicans have demands of their own, most notably cutting off funds for 'sanctuary cities,' which refuse to turn in undocumented immigrants to federal authorities.
" 'We’re not going to do anything that kneecaps ICE’s ability to do their jobs and enforce the laws that both Republicans and Democrats have voted on and presidents of both parties have enforced,' said Sen. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo. [THEN WHY DON'T YOU IMPEACH THE CRIMINAL IN CHIEF!!!] 'If you want to have a real conversation, to me, it starts with ending #SanctuaryCities.' [Um, no!]
"Democrats firmly oppose that idea, saying cities are safer if residents can report crimes without fear of deportation."

Live updates: #BorderPatrol commander #GregBovino and some agents expected to leave #Minneapolis, AP source says
Edited By BRIDGET BROWN, BERNARD MCGHEE, LUENA RODRIGUEZ-FEO VILEIRA, CARLEY PETESCH and CURTIS YEE
Updated 4:44 PM EST, January 26, 2026"A senior Border Patrol commander and some agents are expected to leave Minneapolis as early as Tuesday, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press.
"The departure of Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino, who has been at the center of the #Trump administration’s aggressive immigration enforcement surge in cities nationwide, comes as President Donald Trump dispatched border czar #TomHoman to Minnesota to take charge of Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.
"The person familiar with the matter was not authorized to publicly discuss details of the operation and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity.
"Bovino’s departure marks a significant public shift in federal law enforcement posture amid mounting outrage over the fatal shooting of 37-year-old ICU nurse #AlexPretti by Border Patrol agents.
"His leadership of highly visible federal crackdowns, including operations that sparked mass demonstrations in Los Angeles, Chicago, Charlotte and Minneapolis, has drawn fierce criticism from local officials, civil rights advocates and congressional Democrats.
"Criticism has increased around Bovino in the last few days after his public defense of the Pretti shooting and disputed claims about the confrontation that led to his death."

Sat 24 Jan 2026 12.35 EST"A man was shot by federal law enforcement officers on Saturday in Minneapolis, and multiple reports – including a hospital record obtained by the Associated Press – indicate that he has died.
"Minneapolis officials said on Saturday morning that they were aware of reports of another shooting involving federal law enforcement officers in the city.
"The shooting comes less than three weeks after #ReneeGood, an American citizen, was shot and killed by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis after video showed her trying to drive away from a confrontation, sparking protests nationwide.
"City and local police officials said in their statement that the 'shooting involving federal law enforcement' occurred in the area of West 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue South – and that they are 'working to confirm additional details'."

#IlhanOmar: #Trump's ‘obsession' is ‘#creepy and unhealthy' as raids expand
Jason K. Morrell
Thu, December 4, 2025 at 7:17 AM EST"Two major federal #immigration operations were underway Wednesday in #Minneapolis and #NewOrleans. They unfolded just as President Donald Trump delivered new attacks on Somali immigrants and on Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar.
"#CivilRights groups say the timing and rhetoric are escalating fear in immigrant communities already bracing for enforcement actions.
Omar responds to Trump's comments

WTF!!! #Immigration Agents Deploy to #NewOrleans and #TwinCities, Seeking to Arrest Thousands
#DemocracyNow, Dec 04, 2025
"The Trump administration deployed federal Border Patrol agents across immigrant communities in the New Orleans area Wednesday, calling it '#OperationCatahoulaCrunch.' Gregory Bovino, a senior #BorderPatrol official who has been the face of President Trump’s #MassDeportation campaign, was seen patrolling the city’s #FrenchQuarter. A New Orleans resident told the Associated Press he watched agents arresting men outside a #HomeImprovementStore. The Trump administration says it’s seeking to arrest 5,000 people during the surge. It comes as Immigration and Customs agents have begun a mass arrest campaign in #Minnesota targeting #SomaliAmerican communities in the Minneapolis- #SaintPaul region. The raids follow a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday in which Trump called Somalis 'garbage.' Trump then doubled down on his racist rhetoric Wednesday."

"Ofelia describes how the U.S. #BorderPatrol murdered her friend #RaymondMattia, #TohonoOodham, at his home on the Tohono O'odham Nation.
"Ofelia shares how Ray's father was her spiritual mentor and taught her about O'odham ceremonies.
"'Raymond is my ceremony brother, and I have a lot of respect for him.'
"Ofelia describes the moments leading up to Ray's murder when about 25 U.S. Border Patrol trucks arrived. After murdering Raymond, Ofelia could hear the U.S. Border Patrol agents laughing about murdering him. The gunfire included two shots from the back, and U.S. Border Patrol agents bashed in Raymond's body after he was shot and dying."

So, again, it's okay for the #BorderPatrol (#MurderPatrol) to assassinate an unarmed #NativeAmerican man (#RaymondMattia) and a #LithiumMining employee to run over a #NativeAmericanActivist (#MyronDewey), but those acts aren't #Terrorism? I guess it's all about how much MONEY and CLOUT the victim has, eh?
