Gift link to a stunning report: Heads of European Command, Pacific Command, Southern Command, and Navy’s top admiral "responded with...a 'non-concur,' those familiar with the assessment said — meaning they disagree with the secretary’s order to extend their forces but will execute it nevertheless."

Octavia E. Butler’s novel “Parable of the Talents” depicts a dystopian United States run by Christian Nationalists. Their slogan is “Make America Great Again.” Published in 1998, many years before Trump’s political career, but this poem in the book prophesied Trump. (Poem from @zymplex.bsky.social)

CBP Commissioner Rodney Scott sent violent BORTAC agents to sovereign Native American Tohono O’odham Nation to put down wall protests. These ate the same agents who assassinated US citizen Alex Pretti. Expect this to get ugly.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2026
ARMED FEDERAL AGENTS AND CONTRACTORS ENTER
TOHONO O'ODHAM NATION LAND
Tribal Members Should Remain Vigilant, Avoid Escalation, and Prioritize Personal Safety
SELLS, Ariz. - This morning at 4:00 a.m., border wall contractors and approximately 20 masked, armed Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents from the Tucson Sector entered the Tohono O'odham Nation and began engaging in pre-construction activities. The contractors, who are on the Nation illegally, were accompanied by agents as they worked on three separate locations near the border with drill trucks to conduct soil sampling and other activities.
This is in direct violation of the Tohono O'odham Code, Title 4, Chapter 2, "Civil Trespass; Removal and Exclusion of Nonmembers." We previously warned unauthorized individuals attempting to access our land that they would be in violation of this trespassing law. Tohono O'odham Police Department (TOPD) officers were on the scene this morning and have been monitoring the situation. In addition to the CBP agents, multiple BIA officers and a CBP BORTAC SWAT Team have been deployed to the Nation to protect the contractors, and a tethered balloon is being used by federal authorities for enhanced monitoring. CBP has set up a vehicle blockade to prevent TOPD from issuing citations and removing contractors.
We have also learned that the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has coordinated with Mexican police to have them deploy personnel to protect the area from the southern side while border wall contractors are doing work. At this time, interactions between TOPD and federal law enforcement have been peaceful and professional. We will continue to monitor the situation.
We want to stress the importance of the safety and wellbeing of our tribal citizens. We encourage all Tohono O'odham on both sides of the border to remain vigilant and prioritize their personal safety. We support tribal members who choose to exercise their first am…

Neither is Jesus. The Constitution says Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. "Separation of church and state" is the shorthand for that principle, one the Supreme Court has recognized for decades.
