#Arizona governor sides with #TohonoOodham in fight against #BorderWall
by Howard Fischer, Sep 25, 2026
"Gov. #KatieHobbs is siding with the #TohonoOodhamNation in its bid to at least delay work on a border wall the federal government wants to build along its boundary with #Mexico.
" ' #Arizona's own record demonstrates that vigorous border security does not require disregarding #tribalSovereignty ,' Justin Cox, a private attorney representing Hobbs, told the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. He said the state has achieved 'major enforcement results'' through cooperation with the tribe.
"But Hobbs is not asking that the 62-mile double-layered 30-foot-high steel and concrete barrier be canceled entirely — at least not at this point. Nor is she taking a position on the underlying legal question of whether the land where the twin walls are being proposed belongs to the tribe or the federal government.
"What she wants is to stop further work while these issues are worked out."

WTF! Now #EnergyWeapons being used above #FirstNations ?! THIS IS WAR!!!
Bizarre Flights Above #TohonoOodhamNation: #USMilitary Claims it is Eliminating Enemy Drones using #DirectEnergyLasers? Or is it a ruse to use #ArmedDrones against #Oodham ?
The U.S. military now claims it took out three enemy #drones overnight that were
targeting the #USBorderPatrolBy #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, September 25, 2026
#TucsonAZ - "Those Bizarre Border Flights. The unidentified flights above the #TohonoOodham Nation border have now been identified as military drones, the kind used in war zones. After being spotlighted for weeks in our news reports, the U.S. military now says it took out three enemy drones using #DirectEnergyLasers during the night, saying that the drones posed a threat to the U.S. #BorderPatrol. However, no names or places were given.
"Although the mystery aircrafts were finally identified by the US military, we haven't found any explanation for these flights going back and forth from the O'odham border to foreign countries over the past few weeks.
"The most bizarre were multiple trips from the O'odham border to the United Arab Emirates in the middle east. The aircraft was tracked to a site off the coast of the #UAE, where it turned around and went back to the O'odham border."

#BorderWall threatens tribe’s way of life
#Trump administration plan would split the #TohonoOodhamNation apart, damage #SacredSites, tribal leaders say.
by Daniel Herrera Carbajal, September 25, 2026
SELLS, #Arizona — "For thousands of years the #TohonoOodham people have lived in their homelands in what is today southern Arizona and northern #Mexico. For centuries since the #ArtificialBorder went up between the United States and its southern neighbor, tribal members have moved north and south relatively freely.
"That might end soon.
"The Trump administration is planning to build a border wall through the nation that would split the community apart and force tribal citizens to get visas to visit relatives or the doctor.
" 'I stand on the principles of our forefathers, of our beliefs and our culture and the position that our people have taken on an opposition to a destructive wall,' Tohono O’odham Chairman #VerlonJose told ICT.
"The Tohono O’odham Nation sued the Department of Homeland Security in federal court in June, arguing the wall illegally seized #SovereignLand and desecrated ancient #SacredSites."

Federal judge extends pause on #BigBend border security construction
by Kory Cook for #TexasPublicRadio
Posted on September 17, 2026#SanAntonioTX - "A federal judge in San Antonio has extended a temporary pause on new ground-disturbance tied to border security construction in and around #BigBendNationalPark while attorneys on both sides meet to develop a clearer picture of the project and its impacts.
"U.S. District Judge Orlando Garcia heard arguments Friday in federal court on an emergency request by the People of #LaJunta for Preservation, members of the #Lipan #Apache community and a West Texas outdoor recreation business to halt construction.
[...]
"Opposition to the project has included Democratic and Republican elected officials, #conservationists, business owners and residents who say construction could damage #archaeological resources, #WildlifeHabitat and the region’s tourism economy."

When #Activism and #Furries combine!
Endangered species halted border wall construction before being arrested today.
"We're trying to make it across the border. We're endangered species. We're going to go extinct if we can't find our mates," said a jaguar before being arrested.
"This is jaguar country. There's endangered jaguar here."
"There's only four of us," one of the endangered species said before the arrests, pointing out that it doesn't take a lot of people to make a difference.
The land defenders halted a concrete pouring machine and a giant crane hauling border wall panels.
Three endangered species were arrested for disorderly conduct."

#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.

BREAKING!🚨 #USGovernment is Preventing #TohonoOodhamNation Police From Entering Their #SovereignLand [and preventing DESTRUCTION ]
#BrendaNorrell , #CensoredNews
September 2, 2026SELLS, Tohono O'odham Nation -- "The U.S. #BorderPatrol is preventing Tohono O'odham Nation's tribal police from entering their own land to issue citations to border wall construction crews.
"The crews are violating the 'No Trespass' order to build the #BorderWall . Drilling is underway,
"The media is incorrectly reporting that a federal judge ruled that the border wall is being built on federal land. Federal Judge Richard Leon actually said that this is 'likely' federal land.
"The US government claims it is part of the ' #RooseveltReservation,' a 60-foot-wide stretch along the border created by presidential proclamation in 1907.
"This matter remains before the federal court.
"The Tohono O'odham Nation said it has been #Oodham land since time immemorial and is now officially the #TohonoOodham Nation's land."

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.' "

#Queer #Activists Are Living in a Tree to Stop #Trump’s #BorderWall
In southern #Arizona, a predominantly #queer and #femme #ProtestCamp is risking arrest to protect a #cottonwood and stop a $500 million border wall project.
by John Washington, August 12 2026
Excerpt: "#KateScott, one of the key organizers on the ground in #Lochiel, said that despite the constant leering, clamoring construction, horn honking, and general unpleasantness of the local construction crews, 'a peace permeates this land.'
"She and others refer to the #CottonwoodTrees as 'grandmothers' after what she described as an ' #Indigenous women youth-led #solstice ceremony' that took place in Lochiel in late June. Scott, who is a co-founder of the #MadreanArchipelago #WildlifeCenter, was one of the first activists to try to protect the #cottonwoods as part of a broader effort to stop border wall construction.
" 'The #bees, the #MonarchButterflies, the #WildOregano,' Scott said, listing the species she and others have marveled at and taken comfort in. 'And all the while the #grandmothers are guiding us.'
Scott reflected on how it was a 'great loss' to watch the hundreds-year-old cottonwoods get destroyed."She’d spent much of the summer camping out near or directly underneath the cottonwood. This moment, she said, felt like a tipping point. 'I think people will be emboldened by our actions.' "

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."

"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."

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.
