O'odham Ancestral Land Being Stripped Bare at Sacred Quitobaquito Springs for Second Border Wall

QUITOBAQUITO SPRINGS, Arizona -- The ancestral land of O'odham is being stripped bare near Sacred Quitobaquito Springs, home to pupfish, snails and turtles found nowhere else in the world, except here in the fragile Sonoran Desert. 

Quitobaquito Springs is a place of prayer and ceremony for O'odham. The federal government is destroying this land for a second border wall, that is being protested here on the Arizona border, and from California to Texas.

The roads are closed, but Russ McSpadden hiked into the area Monday and found the destruction underway at Organ Pipe National Monument.

The Hungry Hounds: The U.S. Border Patrol lurks awaiting its prey at the border of the Tohono O'odham Nation, near the Nation's new 'NO TRESPASSING" signs directed at border wall contractors.

The US Border Patrol is part of Homeland Security and its plan to seize the Nation's land for the border wall. The US Border Patrol already has open access to the land of the Tohono O'odham Nation, and a spy system in place to track O'odham and watch them.

Update: Today, August 17, 2026: 404 Media revealed that Amazon is buying large quantities of rare books, cutting off their spines, and scanning the books for AI, artificial intelligence. 404 Media placed a tracking device in a rare book and tracked it to an Amazon facility in Las Vegas, known as VGT3. AI companies have been data-scraping the Internet, including copyrighted books, news articles, music and ancestral knowledge for their money-making industries. -- Censored News.
