Storms and Heat Dominate New Mexico | Albuquerque News

Storms are rolling in with scattered thunderstorms bringing heavy rain, strong winds, and possible flash flooding—especially in Cibola, Catron, McKinley, San Juan Counties, and the Sacramento Mountains.

DOJ Demands Change After Child Abandoned at Border | Albuquerque News

The Department of Justice is launching a major crackdown on New Mexico’s CYFD after a 15-year-old U.S. citizen was abandoned at the border—sent to Mexico despite his refusal and his mother’s dangerous history. DOJ officials call it a dangerous, destabilizing move, part of a pattern of systemic failures that have even led to child deaths. CYFD claims it acted in the child’s best interest with court approval, but leaked documents show the boy repeatedly refused to go and his mother’s troubled past. The DOJ is seeking an emergency order to halt such decisions and is proposing 50 sweeping reforms to fix CYFD’s broken system—where caseworkers skip visits, fake records, and mislead lawmakers. CYFD remains silent until it reviews the court order. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

New Mexico Could Get Early Presidential Primary | Albuquerque News

New Mexico could be getting a major spotlight in the 2028 presidential race, with the Democratic National Committee considering moving its primary to February 15th — making it one of the earliest states to vote. Currently held in June, this shift would place New Mexico fourth on the calendar, after South Carolina, Nevada, and New Hampshire, giving candidates a much bigger incentive to campaign here early. With a diverse electorate and recent progressive wins like free college and universal childcare, the state is positioning itself as a key Democratic battleground. Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is pushing hard, emphasizing the state’s Hispanic and Native American voters as critical assets. The full DNC is expected to vote on the change next month — and for now, no similar move is planned for Republicans.
