"Seek Higher Ground Now": A Near Dam Failure In New Mexico Was Just The Warm-Up For A Record El Niño
A flood-control dam in southern New Mexico came close enough to failing Tuesday that the National Weather Service ordered people downstream to get out of the way.
Forecasters issued a flash flood emergency for McLeod Dam near Garfield in Doña Ana County, after dam operators and county officials reported that failure was imminent:
"This is a PARTICULARLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEK HIGHER GROUND NOW!"
The county ordered evacuations for Hatch, Garfield, Salem, Rincon and Placitas. AccuWeather reported floodwaters pouring over the top of a 20-foot earthen dam in Garfield and breaching its wall. The county described something smaller: at 8:30 p.m., spokesperson Ariana Parra told the Albuquerque Journal that crews had mitigated "a very small piping failure," that no water was exiting the dam, and that pumps were on the way to relieve pressure.
Orders for four of the fiv...

Caravan Of 600+ Migrants Making Its Way Through Mexico To The US Border
Authored by Debra Heine via American Greatness,
Hundreds of migrants, largely from Honduras, are currently moving north through Mexico toward the United States, coinciding with the lead-up to the midterm elections in November. Dubbed the "Faith and Hope" (or "Fe y Esperanza") caravan, the group reportedly left Honduras with about 300 people on September 20, and entered southern Mexico on September 24 via the Rodolfo Robles bridge. The group has since swelled to more than 600 members as migrants from El Salvador, Guatemala, Ecuador, and Haiti joined the original Honduran cohort in Tapachula.
The caravan remains deep inside Mexico with a substantial distance still to travel before it reaches the U.S. border.
Immigration activists say migrants are expecting a Democrat takeover of Congress in the midterms, and a shift toward more relaxed border enforcement.
One caravan leader told a reporter in Spanish that there is a widespre...

Meta Could Face Billions In Penalties After New Mexico Facebook Verdict
A New Mexico jury has found Facebook liable for tens of millions of violations of the state's consumer protection law, potentially exposing the social media platform to billions of dollars in fines.
A Santa Fe jury on Friday found Facebook committed over 43.8 million violations of New Mexico's Unfair Practices Act through false or misleading statements to consumers, according to the state Department of Justice.
"The verdict marks a significant victory for New Mexico consumers and holds one of the world's largest technology companies accountable for its conduct," the department said.
The verdict followed a roughly two-week trial stemming from a lawsuit New Mexico filed in 2021 over Facebook's handling of user data and statements it made to consumers.
As Bill Pan reports further for The Epoch Times, the case traces back to the Cambridge Analytica scandal, in which the now-defunct British political consulting f...
