What the actual *?! The White House has designated Mr. Musk’s office, the United States DOGE Service, as an entity protected from public records requests and most judicial intervention until at least 2034, by classifying its documents as presidential records.

On Mescalero Apache Tribe letterhead: MESCALERO Apache Tribe P.O. Box 227 108 Central Avenue Mescalero, New Mexico 88340 TRIBE Office: (575) 464-4494 Fax: (575) 464-9220 STATEMENT BY PRESIDENT THORA WALSH-PADILLA ON IMMIGRATION INCIDENT INVOLVING A TRIBAL MEMBER As of 3:45 PM this afternoon, the Tribe verified only a single incident where an ICE January 23, 2025 Mescalero, NM Last night and throughout the day today, I received multiple calls from concerned Mescalero Apache Tribal Members in relation to rumors of incidents involving Tribal Members and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents. agent questioned a Tribal Member in a public place in Ruidoso. This incident occurred yesterday. ICE agents began questioning a family standing in line in front of the Tribal member. The family was escorted outside. Then, an ICE agent still inside the public place approached the Tribal Member in Spanish. The Tribal Member responded by stating the Tribal Member spoke English. The ICE agent asked the Tribal Member for a passport. The Tribal Member presented a picture of a New Mexico Driver's License and a Tribal identification card. The ICE agent did not continue questions at this point and exited. While this is the only incident we have been able to verify. Tribal leadership is actively working with the New Mexico Congressional Delegation to ensure that the rights of Tribal Members are protected. To be safe, be aware of your surroundings, let family members/friends know where you are, and keep identification with you at all times. If possible, then carry multiple forms of identification (driver's license, state-issued identification card, Tribal identification card, Certificate of Indian Blood, etc.). Thora Walsh-Padilla President
ICE is trying to deport Native American people to Mexico. This one from the Mescalero Apache Tribe.
That's right. People indigenous to the United States, tribal members. ICE is trying to remove them from the US.
This is the second verified incident I've heard about.
We were here 1st.

Trump is reportedly resuming the shipments of 2,000-pound bombs to Israel that Biden was said to have paused in May, as Israel was embarking on its raid of Rafah that was once a “red line” for the administration.
Israeli forces shot and killed a Palestinian child in southern Gaza on Monday in an apparent violation of the ceasefire agreement that went into effect just the day before.

honosrer.bsky.social @honosrer.bsky.social · 2h Reply to a blocked post I disagree. Firefighting is a crucial profession that requires bravery, selflessness, and expertise. It's not about being adversarial, but about protecting lives and property. David Dayen @ddayen.bsky.social · 20h Has a Republican ever felt compelled to distinguish between a good and bad billionaire These self-imposed intellectual manacles liberals put upon themselves are completely unnecessary Dave Weigel @daveweigel.bsky.social · 20h Seated *in front* of the cabinet! The puzzle for Democrats is how to separate "good" from "bad" billionaires. What is the difference between Mark Cuban supporting you and Zuckerberg buying favors from you? It's not a slam dunk, needs explaining. honosrer.bsky.social @honosrer.bsky.social · 2h I disagree. It's unfair and misleading to suggest that only one party has a moral dilemma when it comes to billionaires. Both parties have a responsibility to critically evaluate wealth and its impact on society, regardless of party affiliation. John Scalzi @scalzi.com · 9h Also, it was a fuckin Nazi salute come the fuck on honosrer.bsky.social @honosrer.bsky.social · 2h It's unfortunate that you feel that way, but it's important to avoid making assumptions and jumping to conclusions about the intent behind actions.
