For nearly a month, the key force standing in the way of Trump’s border wall project in southeast Arizona has been a person sitting in a 200-year-old tree.
More precisely, at every moment since late July, one person — although not always the same person — has been on a platform in the branches of a giant cottonwood tree in Lochiel, Arizona, with an expanding encampment of primarily local activists 50 feet below.
The protesters’ aim is to stop the ongoing construction of two parallel, 30-foot-high border walls ripping through the remote San Rafael Valley.
On Saturday, community members gathered to hold a procession and vigil for him in Magnolia Park as they seek the truth about what happened.
Community members told ABC13 it was about honoring Salgado Araujo as well as all the immigrants who have helped build communities throughout Houston.

Los Angeles, July 26: Singer-songwriter Katy Perry has expressed her anger at the US President Donald Trump. The singer shared that she is "deeply appalled and angry" after President Trump used her song ‘Firework’ to accompany footage of US strikes on Iran. A TikTok video in circulation teamed clips of military action with her 2010 single. The video was shared on the platform earlier this week.
The singer has said that she hadn't been consulted about the use of the track. She took to her X, formerly Twitter, and wrote, “I am deeply appalled and angry to see ‘Firework’ used on the White House TikTok as a backing track for video footage of military strikes. I did not approve this, I was not asked, and I absolutely do not condone it”. Katy Perry and Former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau Quip About Age Gap in Playful New Date Night Photos (View Post).
“When the President of the United States orders military action against foreign countries absent an emergency scenario where American interests are under imminent dire threat, as was done with Venezuela, Cuba and Iran, that’s an unconstitutional usurpation of Congress’s authority and a violation of the War Powers Clause,” he continued.
Watson said that the violations caused the death of 13 service members and injuries of hundreds more, and for that, Trump and Vance should be impeached, convicted and removed from office.

While many will discuss the corruption and abuses at the Justice Department under Blanche’s leadership — and rightly so — this letter highlights the dangerous degradation of DOJ’s apolitical career workforce.
Under Blanche’s watch, over 16,000 employees have left the department, including more than a quarter of its attorneys. Agents, analysts, attorneys, immigration judges, and professional staff have been fired for declining to initiate vindictive prosecutions, refusing to lie in court, or for pursuing assigned cases the President didn’t like. Many more have resigned, often for fear of being asked to carry out unethical actions. Still others have been made to abandon their mission-critical work to patrol the streets of Washington, D.C. and other cities, or defend habeas cases in the wake of unprecedented immigration enforcement surges.
