Fresh energy at City Hall: Maryann McAllen Maryann McAllen, a first-term member of the Scottsdale City Council, brings fresh energy and perspective to the big issues shaping Scottsdale's future — from strengthening neighborhoods and supporting local businesses to tackling growth, sustainability, and quality of life.

She shares her insights on the challenges and opportunities ahead for Scottsdale.

For more than 25 years, Maria Ester Salinas has fought tirelessly to uncover the toxic truths hidden in the Rio Grande Valley. Known by many as the Erin Brockovich of the RGV, Maria has stood alongside families living in the shadow of contamination — from the Hayes-Sammons pesticide warehouses in Mission to the Donna Reservoir Superfund site and the McAllen 23rd Street Groundwater Plume.In this episode, Maria shares her decades-long battle against chemical companies, government agencies, and the bureaucratic roadblocks that left Valley residents exposed to cancers, miscarriages, and birth defects. We discuss the lawsuits, the cover-ups, and the health toll these sites continue to have on our communities — and why Maria refuses to give up the fight.This is more than history; it's a story of courage, accountability, and a demand for justice in one of America's most overlooked toxic frontlines.

Under Black Sky Release New Single “FireFly"Announce 'The Undead Road Show' Tour This Fall!Rising dark rock force Under Black Sky has released their latest single, “Firefly,” now available on all major platforms. The track comes ahead of the band's highly anticipated full-length album, Bad Blood, set for release on October 24, 2025.  “FIREFLY is the ignition point — the first spark in the dark. It's the sound of something waking up inside you that refuses to go back to sleep. This is where the purge begins — where the story of Bad Blood starts to unfold. We wrote it for anyone who's ever felt invisible… and is finally ready to burn," shares the band.  In addition to the new single, Under Black Sky has announced their upcoming fall tour, The Undead Road Show. The run kicks off October 22, 2025, in San Antonio, TX, bringing the band's hauntingly powerful live performance to fans across the U.S.  The Undead Road Show Dates:  Oct 22  @ The Starlighter in San Antonio, TXOct 23 @ Scout Bar in Houston, TXOct 24 @ House of Rock in Corpus Christi, TXOct 25 @ The Flying Walrus in McAllen, TXOct 26 @ Come and Take It Live in Austin, TX  Get Tickets HERE  UNDER BLACK SKY: THE NARRATIVE“You are not alone. The sky has cracked. The blood remembers.”The world was once bright — but the light was a lie.Centuries ago, a secret Order vanished beneath the surface of history, burying knowledge too dangerous for the world above. This Order — now known only in whispers as The OrderBeneath — kept one truth sealed: that some voices are not born, but summoned… when the world turns on itself.Now, the sky has cracked. From the fracture, sound bleeds through. Not music — a signal. A call.Four souls answered.They were not chosen. They were claimed.Marked by pain. Branded by betrayal. Broken by a system that promised dreams and delivered chains. But from the ruins of their pasts, each one emerged transformed — avatars of chaos and clarity, shadow and scream. Not men. Not monsters. Something in between.  They are known only by their roles:• KRYSIS - The Prophet — voice of the unspeakable.  (Vocals)• BEAST - The Executioner — fury without apology. (Drums)• ONYX - The Seer — eyes that pierce the veil. (Guitar)• JAXX - The Redeemer — bearer of the final key. (Bass Guitar)  Together, they are Under Black Sky — not a band, but a reckoning.Their debut transmission, Bad Blood, is more than an album. It is the first chapter of an awakening. Each track unlocks another sigil in the codex. Another fragment of the truth long buried. As their presence spreads, so too does the influence of the Order Beneath.Those who hear the message begin to change.Reality glitches. Symbols surface in dreams. Crimson keys appear. Shattered glass reveals hidden figures. A storm begins to churn within them — not of fear, but of defiance.

It's the Ranch It Up Radio Show Herd It Here Weekly Report!  A 3-minute look at cattle markets, reports, news info, or anything that has to do with those of us who live at the end of dirt roads.  Join Jeff 'Tigger' Erhardt, the Boss Lady Rebecca Wanner aka 'BEC' by subscribing on your favorite podcasting app or on the Ranch It Up Radio Show YouTube Channel. EPISODE 93 DETAILS Cow Prices Double & Screwworm Threatens Texas Weigh Up Cow Prices Are Up Weigh-up cow prices have increased dramatically over the last two years and are now currently at prices that are close to double the average price of what they were just 3 years ago in 2022.  To put this in perspective, the average annual weigh-up cow prices per CWT were $60.05 in 2020, $65.40 in 2021 and $76.12 in 2022, as reported by USDA Market News at the Joplin Regional Stockyards in Missouri.  For folks who are marketing home raised cows that are more than two years of age, make sure that the income from these cows is identified as capital gains income when it is being reported for tax purposes.  This is especially important this year because many cow-calf producers will also have excellent income from the sale of weaned calves and yearlings. Capital gains income is not subject to self-employment tax, and the federal capital gains tax rate will be lower than the ordinary income tax rate for the same level of earnings. Make sure you consult with your tax professional on all income tax law and liabilities. REFERENCE: https://www.nationalbeefwire.com/weigh-up-cow-prices-are-up-way-up Screwworm Closer To U.S. Border Threatening Texas Cattle Industry The deadly parasitic New World screwworm has been spotted less than 400 miles from the Southwest border and is threatening Texas cattle, lawmakers say. The screwworm was first reported in Mexico in November and has steadily made its way north since then. The most northern recent reported case was in the state of Veracruz, Mexico, which is about 370 miles south of McAllen, Texas, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture. U.S. Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, says the screwworm flies could devastate the state's cattle industry if it crosses onto U.S. soil. Cornyn says an outbreak could cost Texas livestock producers approximately $1 billion and cost the general economy $3.7 billion. Last week, 175 groups sent a letter to Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins and the U.S. House and Senate in support of building a sterile fly facility in the U.S. Among the national groups that signed the letter were the American Farm Bureau, Livestock Marketing Association, National Beef Cattlemen's Association and the National Milk Producers Association.

Texas is right outside my window. I live just a short drive away from the statehouse, and yet, I'm physically closer to it than most of the Texas Democratic Party right now. Because while redistricting votes are going down, they've skipped town. Some are in Chicago, some in New York, some who-knows-where. They're avoiding quorum on a vote that could give Republicans five more congressional seats in the next midterms. That might sound dramatic, but the stakes are that high. This isn't about making a point. This is about shaping the entire balance of the House.Let's set aside the tired talking points about whether gerrymandering is good or bad, or whether California and Illinois are just as guilty. I don't want to have that conversation right now. I want to talk about the Democrats in this state — the ones who keep losing, keep retreating, and somehow keep thinking that symbolic resistance is a strategy. It's not. It's performance. And worse, it signals to Texas liberals that their party isn't willing to stand and fight. Not even in the state they claim to want to flip.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Texas doesn't see itself as part of a broader movement. It sees itself as Texas. It doesn't think of itself like the South, and it sure as hell doesn't take cues from New York or Illinois. If you want to win here, you have to respect that. You have to show up and deliver for voters — on Texas terms. And skipping town because you're mad about a vote doesn't read like courage. It reads like cowardice. It says you don't believe in the fight enough to have it on home turf.Democrats did the same thing back in 2021 over a voting rights bill. They went to D.C., got tons of national media, and nothing changed. In fact, they lost ground. Their already thin hold in the statehouse got thinner. Republicans strengthened their grip. So this idea that leaving the state is some kind of protest with teeth is pure fantasy. It's been tried. It failed. And now they're doing it again — not with new tactics, not with a new message, just the same tired escape hatch.What could they have done instead? I've got an idea. Take those same 50 Democrats and spend 72 hours barnstorming the neighborhoods that are about to be gerrymandered out of blue representation. Knock doors. Shake hands. Livestream the whole thing. Go to Frisco, Plano, East Houston, McAllen, Pflugerville, the Fifth Ward, and tell people what's happening. Tell them they're losing their voice in the Texas legislature. Register voters on the spot. Raise money. Make noise. Make it impossible to ignore you because you're in Texas, not because you fled it.You want a viral image? Try getting hauled back to the Capitol in a Texas Ranger squad car. That's real drama. That's a story that cuts through. And it puts a spotlight on the very system you're protesting. But instead, we get hotel bar selfies in Albany — and no movement on the map that's about to tilt the state even further red. The public doesn't want passive resistance. They want a fight. And Texas voters — especially liberals — want to believe that their side still knows how to throw a punch.It's not enough to blame the system. You have to build a response that feels real, rooted, and local. Texas is a massive media market. It's expensive to campaign here. But if you don't make Republicans spend, if you don't at least make it look like a fight, they'll never take you seriously, and they'll never pay the price. Right now, all the Democrats have shown is that they're not even willing to lose the right way.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:00 - Texas00:13:46 - Update00:14:29 - Treasury Secretary 00:19:36 - Gaza00:24:36 - Moon-based Nuclear Reactor00:26:31 - Interview with Kirk Bado01:23:11 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Welcome back to the conclusion of my interview with Author and Retired DEA Special Agent Léo Silva.Leo Silva spent over twenty-eight years on the frontlines of the global war on drugs as a special agent with the DEA. Leo's journey took him from the alleyways of Fronton Street to some of the most dangerous corners of North America, leading high-impact investigations against the Zeta and Gulf Cartels.He served as the Resident Agent in Charge of the DEA's Monterrey office, overseeing complex, cross-border operations that resulted in hundreds of high-value arrests and multi-million-dollar asset seizures. Over the course of his decorated career, he also held leadership roles in McAllen, Texas, and Guadalajara, Mexico—pioneering collaborative missions with Mexican authorities and helping rewrite the playbook for modern narco enforcement.Now, Leo has turned his attention to storytelling. His debut memoir, Reign of Terror, offers a powerful, unfiltered look at the reality behind the headlines—a world of corruption, courage, and the personal cost of justice. The book has gained traction internationally and has been translated into Spanish for a Latin American release.Leo is truly the real deal.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (07/10/2025): 3:05pm- While speaking with the press, President Trump reacted to Senator Jose Padilla's (D-CA) proposed bill which would prevent ICE agents from wearing masks and concealing their personal identity. There have been several recent attacks on ICE facilities—including one attack in McAllen, Texas involving a man with an assault rifle. Despite these violent attacks, Democrats continue to unjustly demonize ICE agents. 3:30pm- According to a report from Fox News Digital, the Department of Justice is criminally investigating former CIA Director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey for potential false statements to Congress related to the disproven Trump campaign/Russia collusion narrative. While appearing on MSNBC with Nicolle Wallace, Brennan claimed the investigation into him was “weaponizing intelligence and justice.” In addition to espousing falsehoods about the 2016 election, Brennan has notably lied about civilian casualties that resulted from Obama Administration drone strikes and about the CIA illegally accessing the computers of U.S. Senate staffers. 4:00pm- Salena Zito—Award Winning Political Reporter—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss her new book, “Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America's Heartland.” Nearly one year later, she recounts what it was like standing just feet from the stage in Butler, Pennsylvania when shots rang out. She recalls her daughter telling her: “I wanted it to be fireworks. I didn't want to think we were literally sitting ducks and being fired at.” You can find the book here: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/salena-zito/butler/9781546009146/. 4:30pm- Corey DeAngelis— Senior Fellow at the American Culture Project & Author of the book, “The Parent Revolution: Rescuing Your Kids from the Radicals Ruining Our Schools”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show and reacts to the United Federation of Teachers endorsing Zoran Mamdani for Mayor of New York City, explaining: “They locked arms with the socialist candidate.” He also reveals that despite opposing school choice, Mamdani attended a private school that costs $66K per year for kindergarten! 5:05pm- Bill D'Agostino—Senior Research Analyst at Media Research Center—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to breakdown some of the best (and worst) moments from corporate media: major media outlets are refusing to cover far-left attacks against ICE agents in Texas and CNN data suggests Americans aren't afraid of climate change (despite progressive fear mongering). 5:30pm- A California woman says her home was mistakenly listed as the return address for a Chinese car seat seller on Amazon—and consequently, her home has been flooded with unwanted returns!

Historic flooding in Central Texas has devastated communities, with over 109 confirmed dead and more than 160 still missing. Kerr, Travis, and Kendall counties remain in crisis as rescue crews, the Texas National Guard, FEMA, and volunteers from across the U.S. and Mexico work around the clock to find survivors. Listeners call in with emotional first-hand accounts from the ground in Kerrville, describing rising waters and desperate rescue efforts. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick joins Pags to share his personal experience—he was acting governor when the storm hit and arrived in Kerr County within hours. Patrick breaks down the state's rapid coordination with the Trump administration, how FEMA responded immediately, and the critical need for permanent flood warning systems moving forward. It's a sobering look at leadership, resilience, and what must change before the next disaster strikes. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

//The Wire//2300Z July 7, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: FLOODING DEVASTATES AMERICAN SOUTH. MULTIPLE AMBUSHES REPORTED AT ICE FACILITIES IN TEXAS.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------HomeFront-Texas: Severe flooding continues to impact the state following unusual weather systems producing much more precipitation than originally forecasted. Concerning casualties, 82x fatalities have been reported so far. Hundreds of rescues by small boat and helicopter have been conducted, and Search and Rescue operations continue throughout the Guadalupe and Llano River basins.Texas: This morning, a small arms engagement was reported at the CBP annex in McAllen. Authorities state that an assailant (who has not yet been identified) was waiting in ambush with multiple firearms to target CBP agents arriving for work this morning. After a short firefight, the individual was killed. This shooting comes two days after a separate skirmish was reported at the Prairieland Detention Facility in Alvarado.Friday night, an individual who was visibly armed was acting suspiciously in the vicinity of the Prairieland Detention Facility. Beyond these initial factual details, the timing of events becomes unclear. However, as this situation was unfolding, a group of insurgents were observed maneuvering tactically to the west of the facility, taking up a position haphazardly concealed in a treeline running north/south approximately 50m to the west of the facility's perimeter fence. Shortly after this observation, this element launched their attack by setting off fireworks either as a diversionary maneuver, to conceal the sound of gunfire, or to prompt police to come out of the facility to enter the killzone of their arranged ambush. During the fray, a small arms engagement erupted outside this facility, as the element of insurgents in the treeline opened fire on one of the officers attempting to investigate the situation. No one was killed during the exchange, however one officer was wounded. A total of 11x people have been arrested so far in conjunction with this attack.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: The shooters arrested in conjunction with the Prairieland Detention Center skirmish appear to not necessarily be Cartel-affiliated, but the more garden-variety far-left-insurgent-type. Cartel members don't often take breaks during a small arms battle to spray paint graffiti (as has been reported taking place during this engagement), nor do more organized and professional militants usually get caught en masse like this. All of the attackers were wearing body armor at the time of their arrest, but local reports state that only one firearm was recovered (the rifle that jammed and concluded the attack). As such, this is either a very kinetic "protest" event, or a very poor ambush.Concerning the other small arms engagement (the shooting in McAllen), it's possible there is a link between the two, though authorities have not speculated publicly on this yet. Prior to his attack, the McAllen shooter had spray painted the words "Cordis Die" on his vehicle, which was used to ram the gate at the Border Patrol facility to launch the attack. This phrase is most commonly associated with video game culture (such as the Call of Duty franchise), so it's possible that the attack in Alvarado could be linked, even if it's just a loose link based on ideology. Both attacks were conducted with very obvious public relations efforts in mind, and symbology/politics was certainly a focal point of the evidence left behind. Nevertheless, there are so many attacks on Border Patrol facilities at present that it's hard to establish any clear link between all of the groups who have chosen to conduct targeting efforts.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//

This gripping broadcast details a wave of escalating violence targeting federal immigration officers across the U.S. Following anonymous admissions from House Democrats that their constituents “want blood,” attacks erupted—including an assassination attempt on ICE agents in McAllen, Texas, and coordinated efforts in Los Angeles and Portland to trap agents inside buildings and burn them alive. The host describes how masked Antifa groups and radical activists have refined these deadly tactics since the “Summer of Love,” aided by alleged indifference—or even complicity—from Democrat leaders like L.A. Mayor Karen Bass. As MS-13 gangs tighten their hold over MacArthur Park, scenes of cartel-style control and open-air drug markets are becoming a grim reality. The episode paints a dire picture of the merging of extremist violence, political cover, and organized crime in American cities.

This explosive broadcast details a surge of violent ambushes targeting ICE agents and federal facilities, described as terror attacks orchestrated by far-left activists clad in black bloc gear. The host recounts two recent assaults—one in McAllen, Texas, and another in Alvarado—where suspects used tactical weapons, incendiary devices, and barricades to trap and attempt to kill law enforcement officers. Highlighting internal Democrat anxieties and anonymous calls for violence from their own base, the segment argues that left-wing extremists are increasingly embracing guerrilla tactics over democratic debate to push for open borders and undermine federal immigration enforcement.

Ces propos, ils viennent de Paul O'Brien, directeur exécutif d'Amnesty International USA. Avec lui, nous faisons un bilan des premiers six mois de la présidence Trump sur le plan de la politique des droits humains.  L'administration Trump a adopté une stratégie de confrontation directe contre les droits humains, les minorités et les contre-pouvoirs, selon Paul O'Brien. Les universités, la société civile et même certaines institutions religieuses sont ciblées, notamment si elles ne se conforment pas à une idéologie nationaliste chrétienne. En six mois, Donald Trump a signé plus de décrets que n'importe quel président, mais sans les faire adopter par le Congrès, contournant ainsi le débat démocratique. Contrairement à son premier mandat, il s'est entouré de loyalistes autoritaires pour mieux imposer son agenda. L'exemple de l'utilisation de l'armée contre des manifestants pacifiques à Los Angeles illustre, selon Paul O'Brien, une dérive extrêmement préoccupante. Il alerte sur le précédent que cela crée : que se passera-t-il si des étudiants, des syndicats ou des groupes antiracistes descendent à nouveau dans la rue ? Le fait que des militaires armés puissent viser des citoyens américains pour des actions démocratiques et non violentes marque un tournant inquiétant pour les libertés publiques aux États-Unis. Enfin, l'affaire de Mahmoud Khalil, étudiant à Columbia, ayant perdu sa carte de résident pour avoir manifesté, incarne selon Amnesty une stratégie délibérée de dissuasion. En une seule décision, l'administration Trump envoie plusieurs messages menaçants : aux étudiants, aux universités, aux résidents permanents, et à ceux qui soutiennent les droits des Palestiniens. Face à ce climat de peur, Amnesty affirme qu'une action classique auprès des responsables politiques, une sensibilisation à travers d'un dialogue, est inutile. L'organisation veut mobiliser la population américaine et internationale, pour dénoncer ces dérives et faire pression sur le gouvernement américain afin qu'il respecte les droits humains.     Quatre ans après l'assassinat de Jovenel Moïse, des zones d'ombre demeurent Quatre ans après l'assassinat du président haïtien Jovenel Moïse, l'affaire demeure entourée de nombreuses zones d'ombre. Nous en parlons avec Gotson Pierre, directeur d'Alterpresse. Il relate l'interview avec l'ancien conseiller de Jovenel Moïse, Guichard Doré. Ce dernier insiste sur la nécessité de mener trois enquêtes complémentaires – judiciaire, institutionnelle et sociale – pour comprendre les circonstances du crime. Il déplore la lenteur de la procédure en Haïti, où aucune décision définitive n'a été rendue malgré l'incarcération de plus de 40 suspects. Pendant ce temps, aux États-Unis, plusieurs condamnations ont déjà été prononcées, mais la coopération judiciaire entre les deux pays reste insuffisante. Guichard Doré s'interroge également sur les motivations profondes de l'assassinat, notamment le financement de l'opération et la manière dont les institutions haïtiennes ont été contournées. Il évoque une possible « conspiration institutionnelle » impliquant des organes de l'État qui auraient contribué à affaiblir Jovenel Moïse. Il appelle à une enquête institutionnelle pour éclaircir ces complicités internes, ainsi qu'à une enquête sociale sur le traitement médiatique et politique réservé au président, avant et après sa mort. Au-delà du crime lui-même, l'ancien conseiller dresse un constat alarmant de la déliquescence de l'État haïtien : institutions paralysées, sécurité effondrée, territoire contrôlé à 80% par des gangs. Il lance un appel à un sursaut des élites haïtiennes – intellectuels, secteur privé, presse, artistes – pour qu'elles sortent de leur passivité et participent activement à la refondation du pays. Selon lui, seule une mobilisation collective permettra de sortir Haïti de cette spirale de violence et de reconstruire un État légitime et fonctionnel.     Au Texas, les victimes commencent à être identifiées et la presse relate leur histoire El Pais revient par exemple sur le destin tragique de Brooke et Blair Harber, deux sœurs de 11 et 13 ans, originaires de Dallas, retrouvées main dans la main dans un grenier. Peu avant leur mort, l'une d'elles avait envoyé un message à leur famille disant simplement : « Je vous aime ». Autre victime évoquée : Dick Eastland, propriétaire d'un camp de vacances touché par les inondations. Il a perdu la vie en tentant de sauver des enfants, souligne le journal. Son petit-fils, George, évoque un homme pieux, dévoué : « S'il ne devait pas mourir de causes naturelles, il fallait que ce soit en sauvant les filles qu'il chérissait. » Donald Trump évite la polémique sur les responsabilités de la catastrophe Lorsqu'un ouragan avait frappé la Caroline du Nord l'an dernie (2024)r, Donald Trump avait affirmé — sans preuve — que l'administration Biden refusait d'aider les habitants des zones républicaines. Quand des incendies ont ravagé Los Angeles en début d'année, il avait accusé les démocrates locaux et de l'État, avançant des critiques infondées sur la gestion de l'eau. Mais après les inondations catastrophiques qui ont dévasté le Texas, Donald Trump a appelé à ne pas chercher de coupables. Peut-être aussi parce que la Maison Blanche est sur la défensive, selon le New York Times. Les efforts du président pour réduire la bureaucratie fédérale ont laissé des traces : plusieurs postes-clé du Service national de météorologie, notamment dans les bureaux locaux, étaient vacants au moment où les inondations ont frappé. Et puis, l'ampleur de la réponse fédérale sur le terrain reste floue. Les autorités affirment avoir activé la FEMA, l'agence fédérale de gestion des urgences, mais sans préciser combien de personnes ont été déployées, ni quels moyens sont mobilisés. Rappelons que Donald Trump a plusieurs fois exprimé son intention de démanteler cette agence. La presse se penche sur l'impact des raids anti-migrants aux États-Unis   Dans un long reportage The New Yorker s'interroge sur la solidité du soutien hispanique à Donald Trump dans le sud du Texas, près de la frontière mexicaine. Longtemps bastion démocrate, la vallée du Rio Grande avait pourtant basculé en 2024. Mais la politique de l'immigration de Donald Trump, notamment les raids, font que même les républicains se détournent de leur président. Début juin 2025, des descentes massives de la police fédérale de l'immigration ont frappé la région, semant la panique dans les commerces, les restaurants et les entreprises. « C'est comme si une bombe avait explosé sur notre économie locale », témoigne un restaurateur dans le New Yorker. Face à l'ampleur du choc, certains élus républicains locaux osent critiquer Donald Trump Javier Villalobos, maire de McAllen, ancien démocrate devenu républicain, affirme : « On peut soutenir la loi, mais pas quand elle détruit nos familles et notre économie. » Dans les réunions publiques, la colère monte. Le New Yorker évoque une ambiance tendue, voire explosive : « Les électeurs qui avaient voté pour Donald Trump pour des raisons économiques ne veulent pas payer le prix de cette politique migratoire brutale. »   Journal de la 1ère Le moucheron piqueur fait des dégâts dans les Caraïbes et en Amérique du Sud.
