LAS CRUCES, N.M.

Wade. They rallied Tuesday night near the location where the owner of Jackson Women’s Health Organization plans to open

The Republic Candidate for governor is Mark Ronchetti. First, he wants to deploy more officers to the border, claiming we have an illegal immigrant problem. This is actually just a means of getting votes from the racists, and is copying Texas. Lot of Texan-Republican sympathies in southern New Mexico. Next, he wants to increase oil and gas production in New Mexico. I have inspected the oil fields. They are drilling. We are #2 in the nation for oil drilling, outdone only by Texas. He wants to incentivize big oil companies to come get more oil, so he can receive campaign dollars. This does not help New Mexico business and only makes the rich, richer. This does not help New Mexico energy, which is increasingly running on renewables. There have been earthquakes due to the fracking down there. Yes, we would get some tax dollars- but to incentivize oil production is to give them tax breaks. "New Mexico over-regulates its job creators" He wants to give rich corporations a blank check to pollute our environment and mistreat New Mexico workers. I am currently amongst these regulators. You wouldn't believe the shit these companies pull, big and small, that violate basic rights. Small businesses tell their underpaid employees to claim an accident happened at home, promising to help pay for the medical bills, only to immediately fire the employee and claim the injury did not happen at work. No breaks, no lunch, underpaid, 80+ degree temperatures. Big businesses consider their employees expendable, firing them for bringing up a safety issue and then claiming innocence when something happens. "The promise of a bright energy future will only be realized when we stop tying the energy industry in knots and stop allowing government to pick winners and losers." In other words, he wants to kill renewables and go back to fossil fuels, because being an energy leader means adopting a dying business model. Other Republicans are opposed to the new maternity and paternity leave made available to State employees. (edited)

The fascists in southern NM called the current governor a Nazi for COVID measures, while they had the highest infection and fatality rates in the state for refusing to take basic measures. They say the government has no business telling them to wear a mask, but then want NM to ban abortion. Some elected representatives in Otero County participated in the treasonous insurrection in Washington, DC, supporting would-be dictator Trump. (edited)
2:28 PM
The current democratic governor, Michelle Lujan-Grisham, is not without faults. She's not a kind person, she's entitled and arrogant. She's dined on wagyu beef and held little parties at the governor's mansion during COVID lockdown. But she's actually done a lot of good, too. She's fought for worker's and women's rights. She's passed environmental protection measures. She's increased teacher's pay across the state.
2:32 PM
--- While I have qualms with the democrats, especially those who cater to big companies, voting for Republicans means you're voting for the pro-Trump fascists, regardless of whether the Republican governor claims to be one or not. He will be expected to support his fascist constituents. (edited)

The hardest, most intense leftists don't attempt a fucking coup. Most Dems are fairly reserved, but endorse social policies like healthcare, education, protecting our water supply, protecting our environment. The Republicans just want money, big business, religion, and control over women and immigrants. (edited)

We're facing droughts, wildfires, earthquakes caused by fracking, but Mr. Weatherman wants to reduce environmental regulations and drill more fossil fuels, because money. (edited)

After the U.S. government started the largest wildfire in New Mexico's recorded history in April, it is asking victims to share recovery costs on private land, jeopardizing relief efforts, according to residents and state officials.

"Today I'm announcing the federal government's covering 100% of the cost," President Joe Biden said during a visit to New Mexico in June. Biden was announcing a disaster declaration that covered debris removal and emergency protective measures. But federal cost-sharing statutes on other federal relief programs are limiting Biden's authority and exposing holes in the government safety net meant to help survivors and restore landscapes."

Detained suspect is a Sunni Muslim from Afghanistan. Victims were Shiites from Pakistan and Afghanistan.

I guess I'm kind of relieved that it's another case of ongoing hostilities between religious sects, and not a case of a lone-wolf American terrorist targeting refugees. Not that it makes the situation okay at all, but at least we can understand it.

A psychopath cannot be understood, serial killers and mass murderers. New Mexico is rife with violence, but most of it is gang or drug related, not just random attacks.
9:18 AM
Police announced a breakthrough Tuesday in the killings of four Muslim men in Albuquerque, New Mexico, charging a man from Afghanistan — himself a Muslim — with two of the slayings and identifying him as a prime suspect in the other killings that put the entire community on edge.
9:18 AM
Not saying he's not a psychopath, either. Anyone willing to murder someone else is a nutjob.

It's not a matter of "them" vs "us." I'm specifically referring to targeted attacks with a motive, as opposed to random, chaotic murders. That makes them predictable, and easier to prevent. Random attacks? Many serial killers remain at large. That's all I'm talking about when I say "relief."

New Mexico is, overall, not a Trump-friendly state. Republicans who endorse or seek endorsement from Trump poll the worst, compared to other Republican candidates. Their goals still align, however. Anti-abortion, anti-immigration, anti-school funding, reduced regulations for big business, tax reductions for big business, pro-Christian agendas (book banning, homophobia, etc). Same poison, just without the personality cult.
1:54 PM
You'll see the odd Trump flag here and there, but NM is fairly solidly blue. It's not a solid bet, though, our last governor was Republican. We tend to flip-flop a bit.

I usually hear about occupational fatalities (deaths at work) relatively quickly, and I'm usually privy to some details. I've seen no indication of anything that would concern democracy, only of course, a lack of education and mental healthcare.

As for the FBI raids, I know nothing about federal activities, but I'm willing to bet it was some corrupt shit.

So it turns out that the Food Not Bombs Free Skool in Taos, NM is no more. Google and the Taos FNB website say it's still there but it's not. Nice guy named Patrick bought the property in 2019. And although he gave us a tour and talked our ears off for a while, he DOES NOT want visitors. Originally, the property was owned by a member of FNB who turned it into a free school type of summer camp. Idk what exactly they learned, but Patrick said the kids spent their time face painting and helping with land management. Eventually that guy moved to Santa Cruz and suffered a back injury so he's out of the game. Patrick said that Taos FNB is disbanded and come to think of it, since the Taos FNB website was where I got the info about the Free Skool, I'm inclined to believe FNB Taos is no more. I've also been unable to locate the FNB Global Coordination Center in Taos when I search for it, so I'm led to believe that's closed too.
