RPNM Responds To Temporary Injunction
RPNM News:
Wednesday a Valencia County judge entered a temporary injunction against the Republican Party of New Mexico, its chairwoman and treasurer, and the state’s RNC committeeman.
The order prohibits, on pain of criminal contempt, all three of the aforementioned individuals from “publicly supporting” any Republican candidate in a contested primary. It also appears to direct Chairwoman Amy Barela to turn over the occupancy of the chair to the First Vice Chair, although the order’s duration is unclear, it does not direct the Party to hold new elections, and it does not declare the position Read More

In this gubernatorial primary, Sam Bregman’s campaign has done something noteworthy. It is worth looking at.
Posted on his website, bregmanfornm.com, is an in-depth document of his policy priorities including a large number of specific action items. It is by far the most detailed such document I have seen on a campaign website.
“Sam’s Blueprint” runs 198 pages in big type. It’s designed as a single PDF document so readers can download it. Most of the statements are easy-to-read bullet points.
This is not an endorsement of Bregman Read More

Op-Ed: To Grow Up And Leave Los Alamos…
By Sal DeWitt
From Los Alamos
I never knew there was a part of life I was missing until I left Los Alamos.
Maybe it’s a part of becoming an adult, but now I understand what everyone meant
When they talked about it being a
Sheltered,
Quiet,
Town.
Los Alamos is like a ray of sunshine hidden in a dark alley. Sometimes even unnoticed, but too small to see beyond the walls of the buildings surrounding it. Not able to reveal how dark the world could really get.
I moved to Los Angeles
After rehab,
After the drugs,
After realizing the darkest addiction existed in places people call “perfect.”
And now I find myself Read More

Catch Of The Week: That Streaming Renewal Email? Don’t Click It

Los Alamos
For the Los Alamos Daily Post
Summer is almost here, and apparently so are streaming subscription phishing emails. This week’s catch landed in my inbox trying to look very official, very urgent… and very fake.
Prime themed phish example
The email claimed to be from PrimeStream, clearly spoofing Amazon Prime. It had the branding, the button, the membership ID, the whole setup. It said payment had failed and subscription expired on May 25 and demanded a click to “Update Payment Details” RIGHT NOW. Today. No time to think.
Here’s the thing. The sender’s address was Read More
