refusal to certify vote hints at chaos in November They say Otero officials’ voting machine fears likely to be reflected nationwide

By Christina A. Cassidy Associated Press

The conspiracy theories about Dominion voting machines that erupted during the 2020 presidential contest flared this week in a remote New Mexico county in what could be just a preview of the kind of chaos election experts fear is coming in the fall midterms and in 2024.

The Otero County Commission refused to certify the local results of the state’s June 7 primary because of the equipment, in what was seen as another instance of how the falsehoods spread by former President Donald Trump and his allies have infected elections and threaten the democratic process.

“We are in scary territory,” said Jennifer Morrell, a former election official in Colorado and Utah who now advises federal, state and local officials. “If this can happen here, where next? It’s like a cancer, a virus. It’s metastasizing and growing.”

There is no evidence of widespread fraud or manipulation of voting equipment in the 2020 election, which Trump lost to Joe Biden. But that hasn’t stopped the false claims, particularly those about Dominion machines.

“I have huge concerns with these voting machines,” Otero County Commissioner Vickie Marquardt said Monday as she and her two fellow commissioners — all Republicans — voted unanimously. “When I certify stuff that I don’t know is right, I feel like I’m being dishonest

The state Supreme Court ordered Otero County commissioners Wednesday to do their job: certify the county’s primary election results.

It’s a ruling that thrust the state into the national spotlight as conspiracy theories promoted by former President Donald Trump continue to cast doubt on election integrity in the country.

The order came a day after Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver filed a petition asking the high court to intervene in the election dispute after the three-member Otero County Commission, all Republicans, refused to certify the results.

Toulouse Oliver, who made appearances on CNN and MSNBC to discuss the case, told CNN’s Don Lemon she was unsure the commission would certify the results by the court’s Friday deadline.

IN BRIEF Biden tells oil refiners to produce more gas, criticizes record profits President Joe Biden on Wednesday called on U.S. oil refiners to produce more gasoline and diesel, saying their profits have tripled during a time of war between Russia and Ukraine as Americans struggle with record high prices at the pump.

“The crunch that families are facing deserves immediate action,” Biden wrote in a letter to seven oil refiners. “Your companies need to work with my Administration to bring forward concrete, near-term solutions that address the crisis.”

Gas prices nationwide are averaging roughly $5 a gallon, an economic burden for many Americans and a political threat for the president’s fellow Democrats going into the midterm elections.

The letter notes that gas prices were averaging $4.25 a gallon when oil was last near the current price of $120 a barrel in March. That 75-cent difference in average gas prices in a matter of just a few months reflects a shortage of refinery capacity and profits that “are currently at their highest levels ever recorded,” the letter states.

Abortions have increased in U.S. since ’17, reversing 30-year decline The number of abortions in the United States has increased, reversing what had been a three-decade decline, according to a new report.

The uptick began in 2017, and as of 2020, 1 in 5 pregnancies, or 20.6 percent, ended in abortion, according to the report by the Guttmacher Institute, a research organization that supports abortion rights. In 2017, 18.4 percent of pregnancies ended in abortion.

The institute, which collects data by contacting every known U.S. abortion provider, reported the number of abortions increased to 930,160 in 2020, from 862,320 in 2017. The number increased in every region of the country: by 12 percent in the West, by 10 percent in the Midwest, by 8 percent in the South and by 2 percent in the Northeast.

Fauci has not recently been in close contact with President Joe Biden or other senior government officials.

Brazil: Suspect confesses to killing journalist, expert missing in Amazon ATALAIA DO NORTE, Brazil — A federal police investigator said Wednesday night a suspect confessed to fatally shooting an Indigenous expert and a journalist in a remote part of the Amazon and took officers to where the bodies were buried.

Police said at a news conference in the Amazon city of Manaus the prime suspect in the case confessed Tuesday night and detailed what happened to the pair who went missing June 5.

The federal investigator, Eduardo Alexandre Fontes, said Amarildo da Costa de Oliveira, 41, nicknamed Pelado, told officers he used a firearm to kill Indigenous expert Bruno Pereira of Brazil and freelance reporter Dom Phillips of Britain.

Pereira, who previously led the local bureau of the Brazilian government’s Indigenous agency, known as FUNAI, has taken part in several operations against illegal fishing. In such operations, as a rule the fishing gear is seized or destroyed, while the fishermen are fined and briefly detained. Only the Indigenous can legally fish in their territories.

“The crime’s motive is some personal feud over fishing inspection,” Atalaia do Norte’s Mayor Denis Paiva speculated to reporters without providing more details.

As expected, central bank raises level three-quarters of a percent; more may come

By Jeanna Smialek New York Times

JENNA SCHOENEFELD/NEW YORK TIMES

Tommy Esquivel, who immigrated from Guatemala when he was 9, sits outside Hollywood High School in Los Angeles last week. Without immigration documentation and with the protections from the DACA program expired, Esquivel is not able to get a job or access college financial aid.

A new era of Dreamers left with few options Undocumented grads can’t get jobs or college aid, face deportation

By Miriam Jordan New York Times

LOS ANGELES ommy Esquivel graduated from Hollywood High School in Southern California last week with awards honoring his determination, his record of service and the highest average grade in his Advanced Placement environmental science class. “I am excited to see what you will do with your future,” his science teacher, Alycia Escobedo, said in a farewell note. “Do big things.”

But Esquivel, 19, who grew up in Los Angeles without legal immigration status, faces significant obstacles to realizing his potential. He has limited access to financial aid for college. In many states, he cannot obtain a driver’s license.

Without a Social Security number, he cannot legally work. And though he has lived in the United States since the age of 9, he could at any time face deportation to Guatemala.

For the first time, a majority of the undocumented immigrants graduating from high schools across the United States have none of the protections offered over the past 10 years under a program started by former President Barack Obama that shielded most of the so-called Dreamers from deportation and offered them access to jobs and help with college tuition.

The Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program was intended as a stopgap measure to protect some of the nation’s most vulnerable immigrants — young people who were brought to the country as children and have grown up essentially as Americans — until Congress could agree on a comprehensive immigration overhaul or, at the least, pass a bill to offer them a path to citizenship.

During the decade since DACA took effect in June 2012, some 800,000 young people have registered. But a long-term political solution never materialized. Under constant attack

by Republican immigration hawks, DACA stopped accepting new applications; it has remained mired in legal battles since former President Donald Trump tried to quash the program in 2017.

Esquivel is among nearly 100,000 young immigrants who are entering adulthood this

spring in a precarious situation — without the most basic tools to build a future in the only country many of them have ever known.

“After doing all this work, I don’t know where it’s going to lead me,” said Esquivel, who joined his parents in the United States from Guatemala when he was in the third grade. “I don’t know what I can do.”

DACA, which over the years has attracted some bipartisan support because its beneficiaries are among the most sympathetic of the nation’s immigrants living in the country illegally, has been transformative for many by enabling them to work legally — and by extension afford college, build careers and buy homes. The idea among supporters was Congress eventually would address the immigration status of the estimated 11 million people who are in the country illegally, rendering the temporary program unnecessary.

“The hope was that DACA would be a bridge to legislation, and that an administrative program would no longer be needed because there would be a statutory one,” said Alejandro Mayorkas, the homeland security secretary, who led the federal agency that designed and ran the program that took effect June 15, 2012.

Immigration analysts estimate the new class of young immigrants who grew up in the United States but lack legal status or any DACA protection will grow by 100,000 each year.

Today, 60 percent of those protected by DACA are 26 or older, and even if the program survives pending legal challenges, there is no way to enroll younger immigrants like Esquivel, who arrived in 2012.

On April 12, Esquivel, who excelled academically, joining the baseball team and campus clubs, was accepted to San Francisco State University’s School of Cinema with the hopes of being a cinematographer.

Esquivel celebrated with his family and teachers. But then he took a hard look at his situation. How was he going to afford $17,000 in room and board with no ability to work?

He decided to enroll at a community college near Los Angeles, Santa Monica College, where he would be able to live at home.

“I feel that I am not an actual person in this country, like I can’t be a part of this country’s experience,” Esquivel said. “I feel like I could do more, but there’s limitations.”

Maligned, loved browser Internet Explorer now retired Microsoft won’t support the web interface that once held massive market share in ’90s

By Richard Jacobsen Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Internet Explorer is finally headed out to pasture.

As of Wednesday, Microsoft will no longer support the once-dominant browser that legions of web surfers loved to hate — and a few still claim to adore. The 27-year-old application now joins BlackBerry phones, dial-up

modems and Palm Pilots in the dustbin of tech history.

IE’s demise was not a surprise. A year ago, Microsoft said it was putting an end to Internet Explorer on June 15, 2022, pushing users to its Edge browser, which was launched in 2015.

The company made clear then it was time to move on.

“Not only is Microsoft Edge a faster, more secure and more modern browsing experience than Internet Explorer, but it is also able to address a key concern: compatibility for older, legacy websites and applications,” Sean Lyndersay, general manager of Microsoft Edge Enterprise, wrote in a May 2021

blog post.

Users marked Explorer’s passing on Twitter, with some referring to it as “bug-ridden and insecure” or the “top browser for installing other browsers.”

For others it was a moment for ’90s nostalgia memes, while the Wall Street Journal quoted a 22-year-old who was sad to see IE go.

Microsoft released the first version of Internet Explorer in 1995, the antediluvian era of web surfing dominated by the first widely popular browser, Netscape Navigator. Its launch signaled the beginning of the end of Navigator: Microsoft went on to tie IE and its ubiquitous Windows operating system

The Federal Reserve raised interest rates by three-quarters of a percentage point Wednesday, its biggest move since 1994, as the central bank ramps up its efforts to tackle the fastest inflation in four decades.

The big rate increase, which markets had expected, underlined that Fed officials are serious about crushing price increases even if it comes at a cost to the economy.

In a sign of how the Fed expects its policies to impact the economy, officials predicted the unemployment rate will increase to 3.7 percent this year and to 4.1 percent by 2024, and that growth will slow notably as policymakers push borrowing costs sharply higher and choke off economic demand.

The Fed’s policy rate is now set in a range between 1.5 percent to 1.75 percent and policymakers suggested more rate increases to come. The Fed, in a fresh set of economic projections, penciled in interest rates hitting 3.4 percent by the end of 2022. That would be the highest level since 2008 and officials saw their policy rate peaking at 3.8 percent at the end of 2023. Those figures are significantly higher than previous estimates, which showed rates topping out at 2.8 percent next year.

Fed officials also newly indicated they expect to cut rates in 2024, which could be a sign that they think the economy will weaken so much that they will need to reorient their policy approach.

The major takeaway from the Fed’s economic forecasts, which it released for the first time since March, was that officials have become more pessimistic about their chances of letting the economy down gently.

Underlining that, policymakers cut a sentence from their post-meeting statement that had predicted inflation could moderate while the labor market remained strong — a hint they believe they may have to slam the brakes on job growth to wrestle inflation under control.

“Inflation remains elevated, reflecting supply and demand imbalances related to the pandemic, higher energy prices, and broader price pressures,” the Fed reiterated in its post-meeting statement.

One official, the president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, Mo., Esther George, voted against the rate increase. Though George has historically worried about high inflation and favored higher interest rates, she would have preferred a half-point move in this instance.

Until late last week, markets and economists broadly expected a half point move. The Fed had raised rates by a quarter point in March and half a point in May, and had signaled that it expected to continue moving up at that pace in June and July.

But central bankers have received a spate of bad news on inflation in recent days. The Consumer Price Index picked up 8.6 percent in May from a year earlier, the fastest pace of increase since late 1981, as the monthly inflation rate remained brisk even after stripping out food and fuel prices.

Zelenskyy has ramped up pressure for more weapons as Russians make gains in the east

By Steven Erlanger New York Times

BRUSSELS — President Joe Biden on Wednesday announced a further $1 billion in weapons and aid for Ukraine, as the United States and its allies met to craft a response to Ukraine’s increasingly urgent calls for advanced arms to beat back Russia’s invasion.

The package, detailed by Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin after a meeting with allies at NATO headquarters in Brussels, includes more long-range artillery, anti-ship missile launchers and more rounds for howitzers and for a sophisticated American rocket system on which Ukrainians are currently being trained.

Overall, the United States has now committed about $5.6 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since Russia invaded on Feb. 24.

Biden said in a statement he had told President Volodymyr Zelenskyy of Ukraine about the new weapons during a 40-minute call Wednesday morning. Zelenskyy and his aides have recently ramped up public pressure on the West to supply more of armaments, questioning their allies’ commitment to the Ukrainian cause and insisting nothing else can stop the Russian advance in eastern Ukraine.

The leaders of the European Union’s largest countries — Germany, France and Italy — are expected to pay their first visit to Zelenskyy in Ukraine on Thursday, but it remains unclear whether they will have much to offer. The leaders — Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, President Emmanuel Macron of France and Prime Minister Mario Draghi of Italy — have all expressed the desire for a more rapid conclusion of the war through peace talks with Russia.

President Vladimir Putin’s forces, advancing in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine, are close to capturing Sievierodonetsk, the city that has been the focus of the fighting.

Eco groups sue to stop oil drilling Novel legal argument says new oil leases on public lands impact endangered species

By Lisa Friedman

By Luke Broadwater New York Times

WASHINGTON — A man who toured the Capitol complex with a Republican lawmaker the day before the Jan. 6, 2021, attack later marched on the building while making threats against Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other prominent Democrats, the House committee investigating the attack said Wednesday.

The panel released surveillance video of a tour of parts of the Capitol complex conducted by Rep. Barry Loudermilk, R-Ga., a day before the violence. During the tour — which lasted several hours, despite the complex being closed to the public at the time — he is seen with the group entering three different office buildings and approaching the entrances to tunnels leading to the Capitol.

Individuals on the tour photographed and recorded areas of the complex that are “not typically of interest to tourists, including hallways, staircases and security checkpoints,” the committee said.

The video that the committee released also featured footage apparently taken by a person who is marching toward the

Capitol on Jan. 6 and can be heard saying, “There’s no escape, Pelosi, Schumer, Nadler. We’re coming for you.”

A committee aide said investigators had learned that the voice was that of the man seen in the surveillance footage of Loudermilk’s tour taking a photograph of a staircase in the Capitol complex.

“The behavior of these individuals during the Jan. 5, 2021, tour raises concerns about their activity and intent while inside the Capitol complex,” Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., chair of the committee, wrote in a letter to Loudermilk, seeking for a second time to interview him.

WASHINGTON — The only Americans still not eligible for coronavirus vaccines — babies, toddlers and preschoolers — appear on the verge of finally getting cleared to receive them after an advisory panel to the Food and Drug Administration voted unanimously Wednesday to recommend the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines for the group.

The FDA appears poised to authorize Moderna’s vaccine for children younger than 6 and Pfizer’s for those younger than 5 as soon as Friday. States have already ordered millions of doses, and White House officials have said shots could roll out next week.

The committee’s 21-0 votes came after a daylong review of clinical trial data and after months of false starts.

Regulators also emphasized that even though young children are generally at low risk for serious illness from the virus, vaccinating the group would save lives.

WASHINGTON — A coalition of environmental groups sued the administration of President Joe Biden on Wednesday for failing to consider the harms caused to endangered species from the emissions produced by oil and gas drilling on public lands.

Using a novel legal argument based on the Endangered Species Act, the groups are arguing oil burned from a well drilled in Wyoming adds to the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere that is heating the planet and devastating coral reefs in Florida, polar bears in the Arctic and monk seals in Hawaii.

If the coalition succeeds, more than 3,500 drilling permits issued during the Biden administration could be revoked and future permitting could be far more difficult.

“The science is now unfortunately quite clear that climate change is a catastrophe for the planet in every which way, including for endangered species,” said Brett Hartl, government affairs director at the Center for Biological Diversity.

It is leading the lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.

“We need to stop the autopilotlike approach of fossil fuel leasing on public lands,” he said.

A spokesperson for the Interior Department declined to comment on the case.

Oil and gas industry officials noted that for every drilling permit issued, the government already conducts environmental analyses and opponents have multiple opportunities to challenge decisions.

suspicious,” J. Thomas Manger, chief of the Capitol Police, wrote in a letter about Loudermilk’s tour. On Wednesday, Capitol Police said they could not offer additional comments but had “cooperated extensively” with the committee.

In a statement Wednesday, Loudermilk said the committee was engaging in a smear campaign against him, causing his family and staff to receive death threats.

“As Capitol Police confirmed, nothing about this visit with constituents was suspicious,” he wrote. “The pictures show children holding bags from the House gift shop, which was open to visitors, and taking pictures of the Rayburn train.”

But the committee said several people who participated in Loudermilk’s tour attended former President Donald Trump’s rally on the Ellipse on the morning of Jan. 6.

Experts warn refusal to certify vote hints at chaos Continued from Page A-1

because in my heart I don’t know if it is right.”

The commissioners in the conservative, pro-Trump county could point to no actual problems with the Dominion equipment.

New Mexico’s secretary of state asked the state Supreme Court to step in and order the county to certify the votes, and the high court did so on Wednesday.

That would ensure the nearly 7,400 ballots cast in Otero County are recorded as legal votes. The deadline for county certification is Friday.

In the weeks and months following the election, various Trump allies claimed Dominion voting systems had somehow been manipulated as part of an elaborate scheme to steal the election.

On Monday, the House panel investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol presented testimony that Trump was told repeatedly that his claims of a stolen election and rigged voting systems were false and dangerous.

That included pushback from his inner circle to the claims about Dominion voting systems,

which are used by jurisdictions in 27 states.

Former Attorney General William Barr, in a videotaped interview with House investigators, said he spoke with Trump about the “idiotic claims” surrounding Dominion.

Barr said he found them to be “among the most disturbing allegations” because they were “made in such a sensational way that they obviously were influencing a lot of people.” He added that the claims were doing a “grave disservice to the country.”

Trump ignored that, and his allies persisted in attacking Dominion. According to the House panel, the day after Barr spoke with Trump, the president released a video in which he claimed without proof that “with the turn of a dial or the change of a chip, you can press a button for Trump and the vote goes to Biden.”

Dominion has filed defamation lawsuits against various Trump associates and conservative media organizations, including Fox News.

The company said in a statement Wednesday the action by the Otero County commissioners

was “yet another example of how lies about Dominion have damaged our company and diminished the public’s faith in elections.”

Otero County, with a population of about 67,000, went for Trump by nearly 62 percent in 2020. One of the commissioners is Cowboys for Trump co-founder Couy Griffin, who was convicted of entering restricted U.S. Capitol grounds — though not the building — during the Jan. 6 uprising.

New Mexico Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver said the commissioners were violating the law and their oaths of office in refusing to certify the vote. She said there is a process to deal with any problems that arise with an election but that the commissioners did not specify any.

“Unfortunately, when one county decides to act completely outside the law, it gives credence to others who may want to do the same thing,” she said. “We have the potential to see this spread and have a domino effect.”

Numerous procedures are in place, including pre- and post-testing of voting equipment and post-election audits that ensure machines are working properly.

In New Mexico, voters mark their paper ballots by hand. The ballots are then fed into a scanner to tally the results.

Vulnerabilities do exist, as with any technology, but election officials work to identify and fix

them. A recent advisory issued by the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency highlighted certain vulnerabilities discovered in Dominion voting systems and provided recommendations to election officials.

But those pushing false claims about voting systems want more than just paper ballots cast by hand — they also want ballots to be counted entirely by hand.

Experts say this is unreliable, time-consuming, labor-intensive and entirely unnecessary given the various safeguards.

Among the most prominent advocates for this is Jim Marchant, a former state lawmaker who on Tuesday was selected as the Republican nominee for secretary of state in Nevada. Marchant is among a group of “America First” candidates seeking to oversee elections while denying the outcome of the last one.

Election experts say the Otero County case is a warning of what could happen if candidates who repeat electoral falsehoods and misinformation gain responsibility for overseeing voting.

“This is just a taste of what we could see in the future, as election deniers are running for positions with control over elections all over the country,” said David Becker, a former U.S. Justice Department attorney who leads the Center for Election Innovation and Research.

hearing his name called Monday, Olea jumped up from his seat at the Lyric Opera of Chicago and spread his arms wide on stage as he made his remarks — wearing his trademark widebrimmed black hat.

“I felt like I was dreaming,” Olea said in an interview with The New Mexican.

An independent, volunteer subcommittee of the James Beard Foundation’s board of trustees and at-large members picked the winners. The awards were established in 1991 to recognize exceptional talent and achievement in the culinary arts and a demonstrated commitment to racial and gender equity, community, sustainability and a culture where all can thrive.

Such recognition was not part of Olea’s life as he grew up in Mexico City. He met his wifeto-be Debra in Mazatlan, and they moved to Minneapolis, where she was from, in 1983.

Olea waited tables.

In 1991, they came to Santa Fe, where Olea had relatives with a furniture store. But Olea met Fred and Barbara DeCastro, who owned Bert’s Burger Bowl.

the fraud.

But, the lawsuit says, the department has an internal policy that extends the time frame for imposing the penalty from one year from the date of determination to one year from “the date the claimant is next determined eligible for benefits.”

This is the second time the legal organization, which serves low-income people, has litigated the issue, staff attorney Alicia Clark said.

The department has refused to change its practices, despite court rulings that the policy is not supported by law, she added.

As a result, the complaint says, people are being denied benefits years after they are alleged to have committed fraud — and years after any penalty period should have expired.

The lawsuit names Workforce Solu-

“They wanted me to have it,” Olea said.

Suddenly, Olea for the first time was a restaurateur.

“I started doing Mexican food at Bert’s Burger Bowl,” he said. “That gave me the vision for Bert’s La Taqueria [in about 1997].”

Olea shifted to fine dining in the 21st century, opening the upscale El Encanto in 2001, renaming it Epazote in about 2008. He relocated it from Agua Fría Street to Old Las Vegas Highway and called it Epazote on the Hillside.

“It was very tough,” Olea said of those nearly 15 years. “I was trying to survive. It was not the right time for Mexican food.”

Olea was referring to the cuisine eaten in Mexico, rather than the vastly different interpretation of Mexican food in the U.S. “What we needed was the right time,” he said.

The time was just about right as he closed Epazote with his “little bit of money.”

But the story wasn’t going to end there.

Lawrence Becerra, a hedge fund manager, and Suzanna Becerra, an interior designer, started dining at Epazote about 10 to 12 years ago and had gotten to know Olea. With Epazote closed, Olea called Lawrence Becerra and asked if he knew of any potential investors for what was to become Sazón. A couple days later, Becerra decided he would be the backer.

“We thought he was a wonderful character,” Lawrence Becerra said. “Fernando’s job is to run the kitchen, the cuisine and the front of

tions Secretary Ricky Serna and the department as defendants and seeks compensation for the plaintiffs and a court order directing the agency to “immediately cease the practice and policy by which the Department denies claimants access to benefits based on outdated fraud determinations.”

Serna said he couldn’t comment on the pending litigation and wasn’t familiar enough with the issue to comment on the department’s policy.

“In any litigation against the agency we are committed to doing what’s right by affected claimants,” he wrote in subsequent email. “Over the past couple of years, we’ve learned a lot about how we can strengthen our administration of unemployment administration benefits.

We’re committed to tightening up any loose ends identified and preparing the agency for future economic downturns.”

Clark said the department’s fraud determinations often are based on a misunderstanding of the rules rather than willful wrongdoing on the part of the person applying for unemployment benefits.

“The question of whether they actually committed fraud or not doesn’t make any difference for our case, but I can tell you most of those people were surprised to find out there was a fraud

house. I had someone who had a vision for ambiance: Suzanna. What I bring to the party is financial acumen.”

Olea said he and the Becerras have a 50-50 partnership, and Sazón launched in September 2015. Accolades followed, including the AAA Four Diamond rating. Then came a fire in May 2019, damaging upstairs office areas but closing the restaurant until December 2019. Three months later the coronavirus pandemic shut down the restaurant industry.

“For that whole time, we paid our entire staff,” Becerra said. “There is a sense of family.

We were nervous [about opening after the fire]. We did not know if people would come back. It’s been quite a journey.”

Olea describes the Sazón cuisine as New World cuisine with the flavors of Mexico. Molé is the heart and soul of the Sazón cuisine.

“I have created a fusion of the flavors of the world with a base in Mexican,” Olea said.

“Spain, Native, Anglo and Mexican, it’s a fusion of these four cultures.”

James Beard awards are top of class in the culinary world, and Becerra said the honor for Olea “goes a long way to further establishing Santa Fe as a culinary town.”

But then, Olea has come a long way — and said there’s still a long way to go.

“More than anything, I have a dream,” Olea said. “Retirement? What the heck is that? I love what I’m doing.”

determination,” she said.

“Usually they didn’t commit fraud or didn’t understand the reporting requirements,” she said. “People are not that sophisticated, and this is complicated stuff.”

For example, she said, the department doesn’t send inquiries regarding discrepancies directly to the applicants.

Instead, it posts them online. Applicants have to see the post about a fraud allegation in time to challenge it within 15 days.

“You have to act fast; otherwise bad things happen to you,” Clark said.

In many cases, she said, the fraud determination is based on allegations applicants are ill equipped to rebut, thanks in part to a system that requires applicants to prove they didn’t do anything wrong, even though the legal burden of proving fraud actually rests with the department.

Clark said the department’s bureaucratic methods of communicating with applicants — which rely heavily on online interactions — are especially hard to navigate for people who are not tech savvy, including the elderly.

Albuquerque bartender Rachel Luna, one of the 18 plaintiffs in the case, said she applied for unemployment in 2020 after being laid off because the restau-

situation like this happen,” she said. “I would like to think that these individuals who have sworn an oath to the Constitution and laws of the state, once ordered by the Supreme Court, will do the right thing and just follow the law, quite simply. But at this point, to be quite honest, we don’t really know where this goes from here.”

Efforts to reach the three commissioners for comment were unsuccessful late Wednesday. A woman who answered the county government’s main number said the commissioners, as well as the county manager, all were all out of town.

Asked whether the pushback from the commission would spell trouble for the November general election, Toulouse Oliver, a Democrat, called it a “canary-in-the-coal-mine situation.”

Toulouse Oliver is running for reelection against Republican Audrey Trujillo, who has called the 2020 election a “coup.”

“Of course, we are all extremely well aware of the lies and myths and disinformation that have been spread since 2020,” Toulouse Oliver said. “I think now what we’re seeing is individuals, regardless of the fact that they are sworn to uphold an oath ... are ignoring that. They’re flouting it. …

And I am concerned that not only could this activity spread to other counties in my state but that other entities in other states could undertake the same activity.”

Toulouse Oliver said she hopes the message New Mexico is sending is the law has to be followed. Toulouse Oliver, whose office is preparing a criminal referral to the state Attorney General’s Office, said the commissioners could face prosecution or removal from office.

One of the commissioners already is in trouble with the law.

Couy Griffin, co-founder of Cowboys for Trump, was convicted of illegally entering restricted grounds during the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol and is scheduled to be sentenced later this month.

Griffin told a TV station last week he didn’t go to Capitol to cause trouble.

“I could face a year in federal prison for walking down to the Capitol with one mission and one mission only: to go pray with people,” Griffin told ABC-7 in El Paso.

At a recent commission meeting, Griffin said the state and Dominion Voting Systems, the maker of the state’s voting tabulators, won’t allow an “outside source” to inspect the machines.

“We don’t know if they can be connected to the internet because they won’t allow us to inspect the machines,” he said.

Alex Curtas, a spokesman for the Secretary of State’s Office, said voting tabulators undergo “a robust, statutorily outlined, bipartisan certification process.”

In response to Griffin’s concerns about voting machines being connected to the internet, Curtas pointed to a section of the secretary of state’s “Rumor vs. Reality” webpage that seeks to dispel the myth.

“New Mexico utilizes air-gapped counting systems, which means that our vote tabulators are prevented by law and process from being joined to a computer network or the Internet,” the webpage states.

“This is another specious point that has made the rounds in conspiracist circles and is simply more misinformation from Mr. Griffin,” Curtas wrote in an email.

Another Otero County commissioner, Chairwoman Vickie Marquardt, also expressed distrust in the machines.

“I have huge concerns with these voting machines,” she said at a commission meeting. “I really do. I just don’t, in my heart, think that they can’t be manipulated.”

John Block, who won the Republican primary for House District 51 in Otero County, said he supports the commission’s push for a hand count of ballots.

“It’s good to have local control of our local elections,” he said, adding he shared concerns of the commissioners, who cited distrust of Dominion voting machines in refusing to certify the results.

Block said Toulouse Oliver’s appearance on MSNBC and CNN shows her appetite for publicity.

“The problem with this election is it’s all about headlines,” said Block, a staunch conservative who believes Donald Trump won the 2020 presidential election. “People like Maggie Toulouse Oliver just want a headline talking about how they’re fighting a so-called big lie, and there’s no such thing as this big lie. It’s the big truth.”

Even before Toulouse Oliver appeared on TV, New Mexico’s election tumult was a repeated topic of discussion on MSNBC, first on The Beat with Ari Melber and then All in with Chris Hayes.

Before introducing Toulouse Oliver, Maddow noted one of the commissioners scoffed at the prospect of complying with a court order.

The commissioner, Marquardt, laughed Monday at the suggestion a court might intervene, according to the Associated Press.

“And so then what?” she asked. “They’re going to send us to the pokey?”

“I think she thought that was a ridiculous prospect, but it sounds like that might not be a ridiculous prospect,” Maddow told Toulouse Oliver.

“I don’t think it’s ridiculous,” Toulouse Oliver responded.

“We are making that referral to the attorney general.”

The attorney general, Hector Balderas, also is a Democrat.

rant she’d worked for since 2014 closed during the pandemic. She was baffled when, after an initial payment, she stopped receiving benefits.

“I looked at the account, and they said they had a hold on my benefits due to fraudulent activity, but I didn’t understand why,” she said.

“I’m not a very computer-smart person, so I was always trying to call and I was always being disconnected,” she said. “I could never get through. … No one would ever call me back.”

She finally got a letter telling her she owed $1,600 due to a fraud determination dating back to 2011, she said, and was offered a chance to apply for a waiver.

She said she applied for the relief but still didn’t receive benefit checks and could never find out whether the agency had received her waiver request.

“I would try to call, and it was always, ‘Due to high call volume, please call back later,’ ” she said. “I was on hold for a couple of hours one time, and then it would just hang up.”

“It was so frustrating,” she said. “To this day, I still haven’t been able to talk to a real person on the phone to see what this is all about.”

Rocha said he also called for days on end without satisfaction, and when

he was able to get his case before an administrative law judge, “they didn’t want to hear it.”

“It’s like dealing with the IRS,” Rocha said. “They are impossible to work with.

They treat you as some kind of criminal when you are on a phone hearing with the judges.”

Rocha and Luna said they contacted New Mexico Legal Aid after hearing the advocacy group had successfully recovered money for other people dealing with the same issue.

State District Judge Matthew Wilson granted a summary judgment in favor of Legal Aid in February in a similar case filed in 2020 on behalf of seven other plaintiffs. Wilson also granted the $69,509 in relief sought by the plaintiffs in that case.

Court records show he found the department’s policy “purporting to expand the fraud penalty period” was “without statutory authority or legal effect.”

Legal Aid filed a motion in April asking the court to enforce the judge’s order.

Wilson issued an order May 31 directing the department to appear in July to show why it should not be held in contempt for its alleged failure to comply with his ruling.

Fireworks banned, but city plans July Fourth show

By Claudia L. Silva

csilva@sfnewmexican.com

The city of Santa Fe and the local Kiwanis Club plan to light up the sky on the Fourth of July, even as extreme drought and other conditions heightening wildfire risks have prompted bans on the use and sale of fireworks through the holiday and beyond.

Ray Sandoval, who for years has organized the event on behalf of the Kiwanis Club of Santa Fe, said people have asked him why the city would host a fireworks display amid severe fire dangers. He’s

always ready with a response.

“There’s significant studies that show that having an organized professional fireworks show with available fire resources ... cuts down on the use of fireworks at people’s houses or fields,” Sandoval said.

The community celebration, planned from 4 to 10 p.m. July 4 at the Santa Fe Place mall parking lot — with the fireworks display expected to start around 9:30 p.m. after the sun sets — is a chance for residents to come together for a little fun after enduring more than two years of the coronavirus pandemic,

he added.

Fire Chief Brian Moya also supports the community show, which he said will allow people to enjoy a traditional Fourth of July celebration without the fear of igniting a fire.

“We know people love the Fourth of July, and we know people love fireworks, but let’s let the professionals do it,” Moya said.

The city-sponsored display can also help save city resources by cutting down on public safety responses to illegal use of fireworks, he added.

“If we don’t have anything, then

guess what? Most people are going to want to shoot them at home, and then we’re going to be running from house to house trying to deal with fireworks,” Moya said.

The Santa Fe Fire Department will be onsite during the Fourth of July celebration to ensure the display is conducted safely. Firetrucks will be stationed on all sides of the show, and fire o∞cials will monitor wind speeds, Moya said. “If wind speeds exceed 10 miles per hour, the show may be canceled,” he warned.

The City Council passed a resolution June 8 to extended a ban on open burn-

ing through July 10. While the measure prohibits the sale and use of many types of fireworks, it allows use of products such as snakes, sparklers and small smoke bombs.

Using fireworks during the ban could result in a $500 fine and up to 90 days in jail, according to the city.

Moya said the city normally has burn restrictions this time of the year. The restrictions are evaluated every 30 days and are normally lifted after monsoon rains begin.

Santa Fe County also has implemented fire restrictions.

Flames from New Mexico’s largest wildfire made a twoday, 11-mile run early this week in the Pecos Wilderness, adding about 15,000 acres to the already massive burn area and sending up an alarming column of smoke.

The new growth of the now 335,069-acre Hermits Peak/ Calf Canyon Fire in rugged mountain terrain packed with dry fuel is a reminder of the weeks of work ahead for wildland firefighters who have been battling it for more than two months.

“It’s putting on a heck of a show,” said Jayson Coil, an operations section chief for one of the incident management teams assigned to the blaze, “... but it’s not threatening our lines.”

Heath Barker, another operations section chief, said “no real values were threatened” as the blaze made its run to the northeast, meaning there were no homes or infrastructure in its path. The fire management o∞cials said the blaze started to slow Wednesday as it began backing downhill in wilderness areas and will continue to slow as more moderate weather arrives this week, including higher humidity and what could be four days of rain. While the moisture will help cool the blaze, it presents daunting new challenges — flash flooding and what incident commander Carl Schwope described as “catastrophic debris flows.”

Phoebe Suina of Cochiti Pueblo, with the environmental consulting firm High Water Mark LLC, joined fire managers in a Wednesday evening briefing to discuss the dangers of post-fire flooding. She has been conducting work in the field since the Cerro Grande Fire scorched Los Alamos in the 2000, she said.

Suina provided shocking images of roads and flood plains wrecked by fast-moving waters carrying trees, boulders and other debris in Jemez Mountains canyons charred by the Cerro Grande and Las Conchas fires. She warned residents — especially those in low-lying areas of the Hermits Peak/Calf Canyon burn scar — to prepare for the worst.

he inaugural 2022 Extraordinary Lobos Day Camp on Wednesday at the University of New Mexico’s practice facility in Albuquerque drew several young visitors.

The camp, sponsored by the football team, had multiple student-athletes take part,

including women soccer players. The camp was for children with disabilities ages 5-18 to participate in drills with Lobos football players.

“They don’t have disabilities; they have di≠erent abilities,” football coach Danny Gonzales said. “We all have di≠erent abilities.

And today we had some wonderful kids out here. It was as good for our football players and our soccer players to experience this, as it is for these little ones right here.”

Gonzales credits his 8-year-old daughter, Abby, who has Down syndrome, for inspiring him to put on the camp.

ALBUQUERQUE — New Mexico’s mental health system is troubled by a shortage of professionals, inadequate information about services and a bad call in 2013, experts said Wednesday.

A conference titled “Transforming Behavioral Health in New Mexico” at Isleta Resort & Casino addressed those and other issues facing mental health care in this state.

About 100 people attended the opening sessions of the two-day conference and more observed online. The conference is put on by New Mexico First, a nonprofit public policy group.

One topic that came up repeatedly involved the importance of peer support and peer counselors — people who have been through mental health and substance abuse challenges and with whom patients might identify.

license because of a variety of issues, including the fragility of the thoroughbred and racing industries in New Mexico.

“Mr. Trejo’s opinion that ‘it just isn’t the right time’ to consider an application for the sixth racetrack license does not affect the NMHRC’s duty to issue a decision on the Petitioner’s application,” Franchini wrote in her eight-page ruling.

Frost said he was pleased with Franchini’s decision.

“The Commission can choose to issue us a license or deny it,” Frost wrote in an email, “although we are ready for them to issue us a license so that we can build the racetrack, we have been through this too many times. We will hope for a license but should assume they will deny it.

“The important thing at this point is that if they deny the license, we can then appeal that decision to Judge Franchini. If she finds that the Commission’s reasons for denying the license are invalid, she can order them to

issue us a license.”

Frost said the writ applies only to the Coronado Partners application, but he noted the commission could opt to evaluate other license applications from Clovis and Lordsburg.

Frost filed his writ petition in December after Coronado Partners filed a revised application with the commission.

Trejo, reached by email, said he would decline to comment until he read the judge’s ruling.

Coronado Partners proposes a so-called racino on Tucumcari’s east side that would employ at least 500 people and generate up to $55 million in revenue by 2025.

The commission had planned to award a license in late 2019, but that was derailed by an injunction by the Lordsburg applicant.

The commission had planned to discuss and possibly act on a license in April 2020, but newly elected Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham fired the commissioners and replaced them before the meeting took place.

The issue of a sixth license never was placed on the new commission’s agenda until January this year, after Frost filed his petition.

Trejo testified during the hearing last month the sixth license was “put way down on the priority list” due to more pressing issues. He said since

to the internet and seeing what they can drum up off of Google,” Peralta said, describing a scenario in which those in need call practitioners, leave a message when no one answers, then fail to get a return call.

“Why would somebody want to reach out for help again?”

Peralta asked.

The report for the conference also described the 2013 behavioral health debacle that stemmed from the state Human Services Department’s decision to freeze Medicaid money to 15 mental health agencies. The reason involved “credible allegations of fraud,” the department argued, but all 15 were later cleared by the state Attorney General’s Office, according to the report.

“Many of these agencies were forced to close, and hundreds of people lost jobs,” the report said.

“Several of those agencies never reopened.”

Speakers said programs such as the 988 national mental health hotline coming online next month is a plus. So are some programs in communities around the state.

Albuquerque Community Safety Department sends behavioral health responders to certain emergency calls instead of police officers. San Juan County has created a mental health resource center for community awareness and information on mental health services.

Santa Fe CONNECT is a network of people in clinics, local government programs and community organizations striving to link people in need to mental health services.

Tohen said the conference itself was a good sign.

“What we need,” he said, “is more of this.” mid-2019, it had operated with a full commission for only five months after two commissioners were replaced and another died.

Trejo said the commission also was dealing with the coronavirus pandemic, lawsuits, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that legalized sports betting nationwide and federal Horse Racing Integrity & Safety Act that takes effect next month.

He said the U.S. racing industry in general is dealing with a decline in the number of thoroughbreds, which has dropped by 50 percent since 2000.

Trejo said he has not discussed a sixth license with the commission and has advised it to “hold off on starting the process over again.” He said it may “take a year or two” to order another feasibility study on a sixth license and was resistant to award one.

“To issue a license like that is negligent to the industry,” Trejo testified. He later said a sixth license would have “negative ramifications” to New Mexico horse racing.

Teresa Leger Fernández, D-N.M., said in an interview Wednesday the USDA’s Emergency Watershed Protection Program normally requires a 25 percent local cost share, but the agency’s Natural Resources Conservation Service initially had agreed to reduce it to 10 percent. “I have been working for the last [several] weeks trying to figure out how to get that cost share paid,” she said. “I’ve been talking to philanthropies, to the state, but the easiest way to do this is to have the federal government agree that it will pay 100 percent of that cost of doing the work.”

Leger Fernández said she

Floods, unlike fires, leave little time to flee, San Miguel County Sheriff Chris Lopez said. brought up the issue with President Joe Biden when he visited Santa Fe on Saturday to receive a briefing on the fires.

“He said, ‘I didn’t know about that. We’ll look into it,’ ” Leger Fernández said, adding she followed up with “key people” in the administration.

“We’re really happy about this, that they’ve agreed to that,” she said. I think this is an example of what happens when you get a president and the top officials in the room. They can make quick decisions.”

Efforts to prevent flooding require immediate action, Leger Fernández said.

“I’ve been to the burn scars,” said Leger Fernández, a former acequia commissioner. “I’ve driven around with the Mora commissioners. I know what it looks like, and I know my gente.

I know that we don’t have that money there.”

The wildfire was ignited by two prescribed burns conducted by the U.S. Forest Service, sparking outrage among residents struggling to receive emergency federal aid. Biden brought welcome news Saturday that the federal government will cover 100 percent of the emergency response and recovery efforts for communities in the burn zone. Additionally, the state’s congressional delegates have introduced a bill that, if passed, would create a disaster fund to help individual fire victims recover from the blaze. As concerns turn more fully to flash

flooding in the days ahead, Coil said residents will continue to see growth on the fire’s western side.

“The fire will continue to move in the Pecos Wilderness to the west,” he said. “We’re going to keep doing our work until the monsoons are in full swing.”

Coil, an assistant fire chief in the Sedona Fire District in Arizona, added, “I get that it’s concerning.”

His home lies just two miles from a wildfire burning near Flagstaff.

Meanwhile, crews attacking the Midnight Fire near El Rito have begun to gain containment. The fire, at 4,905 acres, was 12 percent contained early Wednesday, with 382 personnel deployed to fight it — many who previously had been assigned to the larger wildfire. In the Wednesday evening briefing, Coil offered more good news: “We have line all the way around the Midnight Fire, and they’re holding,” he said.

Plan could allow oil industry to drill in habitat Conservation bank seeks solution to federal agency’s anticipated endangered listing

Prairie Chickens Conservation Chief Executive Officer Wayne Walker, is to save the animal in danger of dying out while also allowing essential economic drivers to continue.

That balance, he said, is essential as it enlists the help of companies that hold large swaths of land.

“We believe using a market-based business model is the best way to secure the desired outcomes for all involved to finally deliver quantifiable conservation benefits to the [the bird],” he said. “The species is a key indicator of the health of the southern Great Plains. LPC Conservation offers a legally defensible permit that should be of interest to this industry.”

The Fish and Wildlife Service said in a statement enrollees would be able to avoid future regulatory shifts while helping to conserve the bird.

The agency also published an environmental assessment in May that showed take permits would impact up to 500,000 acres of chicken habitat in all five states — 200,000 acres in the southern population segment in New Mexico and Texas and 300,000 acres in the northern population.

Internet outage knocks rural Arizona offline PHOENIX — A telecommunications outage over the weekend left swaths of rural northeastern Arizona without internet or phone connections, knocking out credit card processors and, in some cases, easy access to emergency services.

The outage caused by sabotage of a Frontier Communications fiber line left local officials in Navajo and Apache counties fuming about what they called a pattern of problems that leave people out of touch and potentially vulnerable.

“You go from 2022 to the 1800s,” said Lance Spivey, police chief in St. Johns, a small town near the New Mexico border that lost services.

Supreme Court rules against Navajo man

By Jessica Gresko Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled Monday that Native Americans prosecuted in certain tribal courts can also be prosecuted based on the same incident in federal court, which can result in longer sentences.

The 6-3 ruling is in keeping with an earlier ruling from the 1970s that said the same about a more widely used type of tribal court.

The case before the justices involved a Navajo Nation member, Merle Denezpi, accused of rape. He served nearly five months in jail after being charged with assault and battery in what is called a Court of Indian Offenses, a court that deals exclusively with alleged Native American offenders.

Under federal law Courts of Indian Offenses can only impose sentences of generally up to a year. Denezpi was later prosecuted in federal court and sentenced to 30 years in prison.

He said the Constitution’s “double jeopardy” clause should have barred the second prosecution. But the justices disagreed.

“Denezpi’s single act led to separate prosecutions for violations of a tribal ordinance and a federal statute. Because the Tribe and the Federal Government are distinct sovereigns, those” offenses are not the

same, Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for a majority of the court. “Denezpi’s second prosecution therefore did not offend the Double Jeopardy Clause.”

The Biden administration had argued for that result as had several states, which said barring federal prosecutions in similar cases could allow defendants to escape harsh sentences.

In a dissent, Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote the case involved the same “defendant, same crime, same prosecuting authority” and said the majority’s reasoning was “at odds with the text and original meaning of the Constitution.” The conservative Gorsuch was joined in dissent by two of the court’s three liberal justices, Justice Sonia Sotomayor and Justice Elena Kagan.

The case before the justices involves a tribal court system that has become increasingly rare over the last century.

Courts of Indian Offenses were created in the late 1800s during a period when the federal government’s policy toward Native Americans was to encourage assimilation. Judges and generally prosecutors are appointed by federal officials.

Federal policy toward Native Americans shifted in the mid1930s, however, to emphasize a greater respect for tribes’ native ways. As part of that, the government has encouraged tribes to create their own tribal courts.

lead to the restoration and continued management of up to a million acres of chicken habitat.

This would have “no significant impact” on the environment or human activity, per a report from the Fish and Wildlife Service, and no further analysis was needed.

“For more than two decades, we have prioritized efforts with our partners to employ all available tools to facilitate the conservation of the lesser prairie-chicken,” the statement read.

“Working with others is essential to protecting ecosystems that benefit wildlife and economies.”

Locally, Carlsbad-based conservation nonprofit CEHMM (the Center for Excellence) reported it undertook several projects to protect the lesser prairie chicken in early 2022.

The group offers conservation agreements also approved by the Fish and Wildlife Service for private and public lands.

Similar to the habitat conservation plan, enrollees agree to conservation practices to avoid future regulatory burdens if a listing is approved.

CEHMM reported it did not yet find any leks, or prairie chicken breeding grounds, during a weeklong survey conducted March 23, according to its report for the first quarter

of 2022.

The oil and gas industry so far enrolled 508,737 acres within the bird’s occupied range in New Mexico in CEHMM’s program, the report stated, while 891,293 acres were enrolled by ranchers and another 348,551 acres were enrolled by the state Land Office.

That means about 1.2 million acres were enrolled in total, just more than half of the 2.1 million acres CHEMM identified as the bird’s range.

Johnathan Hayes, executive director of the southwest region for the Audubon Society, said effort to conserve the bird while protecting local industry was crucial to ensure local communities are impacted as little as possible by government decision-making.

He said the society supports the chicken’s listing, but hopes plans like Lesser Prairie Chickens Conservation’s and others will provide economic support amid conservation efforts.

“The listing decision is the right way to go, but we’re recognizing that that does have a cost,” Hayes said. “We want to make sure the negative impact that happens to industry, that we’re allowing industry to have some ability to predict what those regulations will be and what that impact will be.”

In Otero County, ‘big lie’ corrupting primary

O

tero County voters should be furious.

Because of their County Commission, their votes aren’t being counted. Instead, the three Otero County commissioners are refusing to certify the recent primary election as required under state law. The deadline to do so is Friday.

Without certification, it’s unclear how candidates from Otero County could make it to a general election ballot. Not only would the votes from Otero County not be counted for statewide or legislative races, but the unanimous commission decision not to certify the election has implications for local races.

Two magistrate races and a County Commission seat are being contested in November. Those candidates, both Democrats and Republican, deserve to have their ballot places assured.

Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver asked Supreme Court justices to require the commission to follow the law — and justices responded quickly, issuing a writ of mandamus on Wednesday requiring the

commission to certify the election.

Elections, while run by county clerks, are administered according to state law.

That means voting machines are selected at the state level. They are certified ahead of elections and the results — paper ballots, mind you — are audited afterward. Elections in New Mexico are as secure as they come.

A county commission’s role is to certify results, turning the unofficial tallies into the “official” count. By not doing its job, the commission is gumming up the works as the state prepares for the November election.

Even worse, commissioners have no actual grounds on which to question the election results. They just don’t “trust” the Dominion Voting System machines.

Commissioners have presented no proof or evidence. Both the Otero County attorney and county clerk have told them their actions cannot be defended; these officials deserve praise for standing up to conspiracy theorists.

This isn’t a complaint that has bubbled up out of nowhere. A big part of the controversy over the 2020 presidential election

— the long-discredited notion that it was stolen from Donald Trump — focused on claims of rigged Dominion voting machines.

To be clear — again — the claims of a stolen election are a lie. None other than former U.S. Attorney General William Barr, an arch-conservative, found allegations about the rigged machines “disturbing.”

“Disturbing in the sense that I saw actually zero basis for the allegations,” he said.

“But they were made in such a sensational way that they obviously were influencing a lot of people.”

Including the Otero County Commission.

With the deadline to certify election results looming, the commission must do its job — and adhere to the oath of office all commissioners must take when they assumed their positions. That includes a vow to support the U.S. Constitution and the constitution and laws of this state.

Besides not certifying the election, the unified commissioners have mandated the removal of drop boxes for absentee ballots.

They also voted to recount primary election ballots by hand and consider different ways

Finally, we’re talking about the number of guns

THE PAST 100 YEARS From The Santa Fe New Mexican: June 16, 1922: Since the first of the year there have been four cases of typhoid fever in Santa Fe and one outside the city. The distribution of these cases both as to time and location shows that they did not arise from any one particular source, such as an infected water or milk supply, and points directly to the fly as the cause.

June 16, 1947: State Police Chief Hubert Beasley told today of gambling raids in five counties and announced a program of strict enforcement of antigambling laws throughout the state. “They’ve been warned that the state will act when local officials fail to enforce the law,” Beasley said, “and we are prepared to show that we mean business.” The operation, said Beasley, has the complete backing of Governor Mabry.

June 16, 1972: Public Service Co. of New Mexico has told the developers of Colonias de Santa Fe, in effect, that until questions of county and city jurisdiction over the planned subdivision are settled, electricity cannot be provided to homes built there.

June 16, 1997: A former St. Michael’s High School principal was apparently strangled to death this weekend in the Nigerian mission at which he had served for the past 10 years.

Word came Saturday morning to the Christian Brothers Home in Santa Fe from headquarters in Rome that one of their own had been killed.

Brother Raphael Bodin, 72, failed to show up for a morning prayer service at the Christian Brothers’ central African mission on Saturday and was found shortly afterward in his room with his hands and feet bound, apparently suffocated.

to collect and count votes for the November election. Trouble is, by state law those aren’t decisions made at the county level.

Toulouse Oliver, by seeking Supreme Court intervention, is showing she won’t put up with this absurd and destructive flouting of the law. She also is ready to ask the state attorney general to consider a criminal complaint against the commissioners for refusing to follow the Election Code and failing to perform the duties of their office.

As we all know, one of the commissioners even participated in the insurrection on Jan. 6, 2021. He bought the big lie about a rigged election and is carrying his fellow commissioners along with his misinformation.

Such willful disregard for facts and truth — whether in Otero County or at the national level — endangers our democracy.

State Republican leaders, if they had courage, should be challenging Otero County commissioners and asking them to do their jobs.

The voters of Otero County, after all, deserve to have their votes counted.

Change the gun culture: Big shots don’t get security

I

f we really want to change the gun culture in the United States, I believe there is only one way that might actually work: Take away public security for all members of government. If they want personal security, they can pay for it from their own pockets.

The only exception I would make is for the president and governors. It is important that senators, representatives and all members of the courts, especially the supreme courts, both state and nation, no longer get publicly financed security. They are the only group that could actually change things.

If we did this, the whole love affair with guns and killing would change fast. Today it’s your life that is worthless; they have security that you pay for, and so it is not a problem for them! Take away their public security, and you would see change fast.

The right waste Mark Heckel complained in (“A solar array future,” Letters to the Editor, June 11) that solar power would eventually lead to “unattractive junk” in 30 years. His timing seems off, and ignores rehabilitation, but even piles of solar arrays would beat toxic nuclear waste, strip-mined mountains and more BP Horizon and Exxon Valdez disasters.

Hydrogen possibilities My degrees in chemical engineering give me insight into the use of hydrogen as an energy source.

Some of your recent letters discourage this because it requires electricity produced from coal or natural gas. When power to make the hydrogen comes from wind or solar (or nuclear or geothermal) this problem disappears.

The beauty of this “green” hydrogen is that it can be stored as a liquid in pressurized tanks for use when the electricity source is down — no wind or sun. It can be moved around to where it is needed.

It may not make sense, however, to use hydrogen to power cars and trucks when we are already preparing to replace gasoline burners with electricity, which already has a distribution system in place. Powering

Balance the news I just finished reading the Sunday, June 12, Santa Fe New Mexican, and every article in the front page section that had anything to do with politics was authored by reporters of the New York Times, Washington Post and Associated Press. I believe these three media organizations favor the leftist political agenda and bury any news that may be conceived to be harmful to Democratic politicians. (I know there are exceptions.)

As one of your subscribers, I would prefer to see news that doesn’t consistently reflect the views of only one segment of the political spectrum.

It would seem to make good business sense to provide items of a political nature that may be considered by your readers to be balanced and impartial. That doesn’t seem to be the case here. I speak as a former newspaper reporter with some experience in selecting items “off the wire” for publication and whose editor would never allow such bias. I’m sure that most of your subscribers will disagree with my statements and inform me where I’ve gone astray in my musings.

Flintlocks for all How about giving a muzzle-loading flintlock to every man, woman and child in the United States?

That is what the authors of the U.S. Constitution may have had in mind when writing the Second Amendment and removing every type of assault weapon from public use, since they certainly couldn’t have intended their use.

Jake Barrow

Santa Fe

here is good news about gun policy in America. But it’s not the bipartisan agreement that emerged on Capitol Hill this week.

The deal between 10 Republican and 10 Democratic senators is better than nothing. But it amounts to small-bore measures that don’t really address the central problem — the broad availability and circulation of guns in the United States, including weapons such as the AR-15 that are often used in mass shootings. The danger is that passing this legislation will take the heat off lawmakers, particularly Republicans, to adopt truly meaningful solutions.

But ultimately, I don’t think passage of the Senate bill will weaken the push for more far-reaching gun policies. The recent mass shootings in Buffalo, N.Y., and Uvalde, Texas, have cemented two big, important shifts on gun policy that were already happening and won’t be slowed by the Perry passage of a minor congressional bill.

Bacon Jr. First, those involved in public policy Washington Post who are not accountable to hardcore Republican voters have come to agree that guns are the problem. As a result, many in the media, top Democratic Party officials, think tanks and advocacy groups that don’t usually focus on guns are all pushing for policies such as banning the sale and ownership of military-style weapons and high-capacity magazines. Just as significantly, the reality-based policy community now agrees that while addressing, say, mental health, gangs and school security might help, what makes gun violence so prevalent in America is the unusually high number of guns in circulation.

The second big shift is that the national Democratic Party is no longer afraid of gun control. A mythology developed in the early 2000s that supporting gun control was a key driver of the Democrats’ decline in the South. In particular, some strategists argued Al Gore lost his home state of Tennessee, and therefore the 2000 presidential election, over his support for gun control. Now, it’s fairly clear the Democrats’ struggles in the South were part of a broader political realignment, with the most important explanation likely being Southerners breaking with the party as it became more tied to Black people and causes.

Also, electoral politics aside, the sheer number of catastrophic mass shootings over the past decade has basically forced Democrats to take on this issue.

These shifts aren’t reflected much in national policy, because the Democrats don’t have the Senate votes to push through a serious gun control bill. But having a general agreement about the problem still matters. Why? First, clearly identifying guns as the problem is a big step toward finding actual solutions. Now, wealthy individuals, organizations and the Democratic Party know they must develop a comprehensive agenda aimed at reducing the number of guns in the United States and only backing candidates who believe in that goal.

Second, blue cities and states where Republicans aren’t a roadblock should pass strong gun regulations, daring lower-level GOP judicial appointees who are often hostile to local gun regulations to strike them down and thereby put gun rights ahead of public safety. Cities and states as well as philanthropic organizations should also seek innovative ways to encourage people to voluntarily either get rid of guns or not buy them in the first place.

Third, understanding guns are the problem makes one solution imperative: demanding that GOP-appointed judges, including those on the Supreme Court, accept that some expansive gun-control measures are simply necessary for public safety. Conservatives on the court have essentially created a right for all Americans to own a handgun with few restrictions, a view some scholars say is not grounded in the original intent of the Second Amendment.

The court’s conservatives are expected to further expand gun rights in a ruling still to come this term.

So, no, I’m not celebrating this bipartisan guns deal too much. But I am excited to see lots of powerful Americans, including top Democrats, get more serious about reducing the number of guns in the United States. That’s the only real solution — and it’s good that so many people are finally acknowledging that.

more colorful.

Whether it’s Sirius or drought, there is not much we can do, yet there is a lot we need to do for our dogs. That the sultry days are named after them is not their fault. Some tips: 1. Make sure they have lots of water. You don’t need to put ice cubes and lemon in the water but it is a nice gesture.

2. Bring them in when it is hot when you can’t be outdoors.

Fans are great. When they are outside, assure that they have shade.

3. Walk them early in the morning or later in the evening when it is markedly cooler in Santa Fe. Test the temperature of asphalt. If it’s hot to the touch, it will hurt them.

4. I won’t even mention having dogs in hot cars. Verboten!

Leave them at home.

5. Let ‘em rest. The whole point of the dog days is dogs are going to sleep. It is enervating to be hot. This is not a time to play fetch.

Here is the brilliant part: All of the above apply to us. Drink water, stay in the shade, avoid noonday walks, avoid hot cars and realize that heat can drain you. Get the important stuff done early in the morning or in the cool of the evening, unless you have air conditioning, in which case I’m just jealous.

Finally, pray, sacrifice chickens or do your favorite rain dance, hoping the monsoon rains will come soon. Then we will all put on those wide-brimmed hats and splash around in puddles.

Until then, wrap a wet bandana around your neck and stay cool.

Española Humane waives adoption fees on adult dogs Española Humane offers free adoptions on all adult dogs through June in an effort to open its kennels and help more animals this summer.

All pets are spayed or neutered, vaccinated and microchipped.

The adoption event, dubbed “Summer Stars,” highlights the special nature of the adult dogs,

1 year and older, and the joy they can bring to families, said Karina Exell, the shelter’s director of operations. Adult dogs are generally calmer, more socialized and bond more easily to family members than younger dogs.

The shelter, like many, is caring for a high number of pets in the kennels and in foster homes.

Maddux: Control still key Hall of Fame pitcher visits New Mexico, Isotopes Park to promote book and reflect on how game has evolved

Small forward has played big role in team’s victories

By Brian Mahoney Associated Press

BOSTON — Andrew Wiggins’ critics always focused on what they thought he wasn’t.

Not driven enough to be the No. 1 pick in the draft, they said. Just not good enough to be an All-Star starter, they argued.

One more victory by the Golden State Warriors and all that will matter is what Wiggins is: an NBA champion.

“He’s shining on the brightest of stages in the playoffs. You can tell how much he’s enjoying it,” fellow All-Star Stephen Curry said Wednesday. “It’s just amazing to see things working out in his favor in terms of kind of dispelling all the narratives around him and who he is as a basketball player right in front of your eyes.”

The Warriors have won two straight games to take a 3-2 lead into Game 6 on Thursday, and Wiggins is as big a reason as any. The forward from Canada had 17 points and a career-high 16 rebounds in Game 4, then followed that with 26 points and 13 boards.

Wiggins had recorded consecutive double-doubles just once in his career before doing it in the two biggest games he’s ever played.

“It’s always great being able to showcase what you can do, what you worked for,” Wiggins said. “So I’m just happy to be able to be here on the biggest stage and help my team win.”

Hall of Famer Greg Maddux, right, speaks Wednesday with Isotopes manager Warren Schaeffer in the dugout before Maddux threw the ceremonial first pitch of a game against the Salt Lake Bees at Isotopes Park in Albuquerque. Maddux, who retired in 2008, was in town for Grassroots Baseball Day and to promote photographer Jean Fruth’s new book, Grassroots Baseball: Route 66.

ALBUQUERQUE here was a time when milestone numbers like 300 wins and 500 home runs were automatic tickets to the National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Not so anymore.

With the surge in sabermetrics, spin rates, pitch counts and scientific advancements in managing one’s body, the benchmarks for greatness are moving in opposite directions.

One player who’ll never need to worry about them is former pitcher Greg Maddux, a 355-game winner during one of the most amazing baseball careers of all time. He won 18 Gold Gloves, was named Cy Young Award winner four straight years, was an eight-time All-Star and had at least 15 wins in 17 straight seasons, all while logging over 5,000 innings with fewer than 1,000 walks.

His win total alone makes him legendary, but it was his amazing control and tenacious competitiveness that made him one of the greats.

On Wednesday, he took a stroll around Isotopes Park as part of a promotional tour for the new book, Grassroots Baseball: Route 66. It’s the second book in a series started by Grassroots Baseball co-founders Jane Fruth and Jeff Idelson. Their first was in 2019. The most recent is tied to the teams and places along historic Route 66 from Illinois to California. It includes a segment on New Mexico and its rich history with the sport.

When asked about what qualifies as an automatic ticket to the Hall these days, Maddux joked that the highest spin rate seems to stand out more now than

wins did when he was on the mound.

“My thoughts are, obviously the game’s changed,” he said. “Look at how much it changed from when we looked at pitchers when I was coming up that were throwing over 300 innings and we thought that was absurd. We tried to get to 250 and now it

seems the bar keeps getting a little bit lower as far as innings go, but I’m sure the top 1 percent is going to show up and everybody is going to know who those players are when the time comes.”

Disrupters vs. dreamers Two worlds collide at U.S. Open

By Stephen Whyno Associated Press

DENVER — Andre Burakovsky scored 1:23 into overtime and the Colorado Avalanche opened the Stanley Cup Final with a 4-3 victory over the twotime defending champion Tampa Bay Lightning on Wednesday night.

Burakovsky ended it after the Avalanche failed to score on a power play that began late in regulation when ON TV three-time champ 6 p.m. Saturday Patrick Maroon on ABC, ESPN+ — put the puck Stanley Cup Final: over the glass.

Tampa Bay at Burakovsky is one Colorado of only two Avalanche players who have won the Cup. “He’s been playing well lately, and he sure deserves it,” winger Mikko Rantanen said. “He has a great shot and overall a nice play.”

The game likely wouldn’t have even reached OT if not for big penalty kills by the Avalanche, who were 3 for 3 against Tampa Bay’s potent power play. The final kill featured a crucial save by goaltender Darcy Kuemper and a series of clears by Norris Trophy finalist defenseman Cale Makar.

An earlier kill built momentum for Colorado, which opened the scoring on captain Gabriel Landeskog’s goal 40 seconds after Josh Manson’s penalty

BROOKLINE, Mass. wo worlds of competitive golf collide this week at the U.S. Open.

One world seeks to blow up the status quo, posing the largest threat to the PGA Tour in its 54-year history. It is spearheaded by six-time major winner and fan favorite Phil Mickelson, who along with former No. 1 Dustin Johnson took $150 million or more to leave the sport’s pre-eminent tour and play in the new Saudi-backed LIV Golf series.

The other world is inhabited by the likes of Ben Silverman and Davis Shore.

They are among the young, the journeymen, the amateurs and the dreamers who made it through qualifying to earn spots in the 156-player field at The Country Club outside of Boston.

Starting Thursday, they will play alongside the millionaire disrupters in America’s open golf tournament — an event that, in theory at least, any pro or amateur with a handicap of 1.4 or less is eligible to win.

Astros has 2 immaculate innings, Maldonado 3 RBIs to beat Texas

LIV XIV ready for traditional Boston welcome Associated Press

BROOKLINE, Mass. very loudmouth from Yarmouth and Masshole from Athol has descended on The Country Club this week, when 14 golfers in the U.S. Open field will face the American public for the first time since defecting to an upstart, Saudi Arabian-backed tour.

The injection of genuine international intrigue is expected to energize the legendarily obnoxious Boston sports fan and make the staid, secretive enclave look more like a Sam Adams commercial casting call.

Guys named Sully and Fitz lined the fairways and greens at the 140-year-old club during the practice rounds, ready to greet their least favorite golfers with the same reception their ancestors gave the Redcoats at Lexington and Concord.

“It’s going to be loud, and it’s going to be a lot of fun,” said defending U.S. Open champion John Rahm, who has stuck with the PGA Tour and eschewed the bigger, guaranteed paydays offered by LIV Golf.

“There hasn’t been a U.S. Open here in a very long time, so they’re hungry for it, and you can tell,” Rahm said. “It almost feels like with what’s going on in the world of golf, they almost want to show their presence even more. I don’t know exactly what to expect, but I’m really looking forward to it.”

More tentative was Phil Mickleson, a six-time major champion who is the biggest name among the LIV XIV. He said in February that Saudi regime funding the new tour had some “scary [expletive]” but still took a reported $200 million to play on it.

One of the most popular players in the world, Mickelson said Monday he was unsure if his supporters would abandon him.

Just in case, he buttered up the

E

locals like a Parker House roll.

“The Boston crowds are some of the best in sports,” Mickelson said during a 25-minute media session after arriving in this Boston suburb from last week’s LIV event outside of London.

“I think that their excitement and energy is what creates such a great atmosphere,” he said. “So whether it’s positive or negative towards me directly, I think it’s going to provide an incredible atmosphere to hold this championship.”

Golf is typically the most genteel of sports, with its hushed greenside whispers and polite, muffled applause. It is rude to talk during a player’s swing; cheering a rival’s miss simply is not done.

Sill, there are exceptions.

The Phoenix Open is a beer-fueled revelry that would not be out of place in the Yankee Stadium bleachers. And here at The Country Club, the 1999 Ryder Cup erupted into a hullaballoo that lives on as “The Battle of Brookline.”

During the biennial competition between golfers from the United States and a team from Europe, doughy Scotsman Colin Montgomerie was relentlessly heckled for his resemblance to the Robin Williams-in-drag movie character Mrs. Doubtfire (as well as former New England Patriots coach Bill Parcells, nicknamed “Tuna”).

Some of the sport’s other niceties were likewise ignored, notably the American celebration after Justin Leonard’s Cup-clinching birdie on the 17th green — before José María Olazábal had a chance to putt out. The Europeans fumed.

But those antics were mild compared to what other visiting athletes have experienced in Boston.

Yankees shortstop Bucky Dent has acquired a new middle name — it rhymes with “Bucky” — for the crime of hitting a home run against the Red Sox. Brooklyn

ROBERT F. BUKATY/ASSOCIATED PRESS

Phil Mickelson signs autographs Wednesday after a practice round for the U.S. Open at The Country Club in Brookline, Mass.

Nets guard Kyrie Irving had a water bottle thrown at him after a postseason game; he had the nerve to leave the Celtics after professing his love for the city.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was hidden from view at the New England Patriots Super Bowl banner-raising in 2017, lest it trigger fans still angry over his decision to suspend quarterback Tom Brady for his role in the Deflategate cheating saga.

And just last week, Celtics fans greeted Golden State Warriors antagonist and NBA Finals opponent Draymond Green with a vulgar chant. (It also, somewhat unimaginatively, rhymed with “Bucky.”)

“Classy. Very classy,” said Warriors coach Steve Kerr, who was heckled by a Duck Boat driver — albeit amiably — while walking around town.

“That’s just Boston being Boston,” the Boston Globe explained Wednesday in a deep dive into the characteristic cold shoulder of the city’s sports fans. “Rude gestures are simply how we say ‘hi’ around here.”

The U.S. Open crowds were thick but well-behaved early in the week as golfers played their practice rounds. Two graying women discussed their online bridge matches while waiting to cross the 18th fairway. Men wearing golf shirts from their home clubs discussed business, or their latest round.

Mickelson had a handful of police walking with him Tuesday — not unusual for one of the

sport’s biggest names, even if they did seem to be on higher alert than usual. They heard only cheers as their protectee made his way around the course.

“Good stuff, Phil!” shouted Kameron Luthea, a Cumberland, R.I., man who watched Mickelson tee off on No. 6 on Tuesday.

“Boston loves you, Phil!”

Luthea said he became a Mickelson fan because they are both left-handed. Asked if he was troubled by the connection to the repressive Saudi regime, Luthea said carefully: “I support Phil and his golf game.”

“I like the way he plays,” Luthea said. “He’s in it to win it.

He’s got no fear.”

In fact, Mickelson may have nothing to fear this week other than the punishing Country Club layout. The 51-year-old San Diegan, who turns 52 on Thursday, has won every major tournament except the U.S. Open, which bills itself as “golf’s toughest test,” finishing second a record six times.

“Don’t be killing the Boston fans,” Larry Costello, a resident of the nearby West Roxbury neighborhood, told a reporter after Mickelson came over to the gallery to greet an acquaintance.

Fans took selfies and reached out with items for the golfer to sign before he headed off down the fairway to complete his round.

The gallery followed, but not before Luthea offered one last thought: “Screw Kyrie,” he shouted to a reporter. “You can throw that in there.”

check. We don’t get that opportunity very much playing at this level.”

Theirs is a level of puddle-jumper flights to far-flung outposts, cheap rent-a-cars, fast-food drive-throughs and bunking with roommates. Players make cuts, then use that money to pay to travel to the next week’s tournament.

Shore, who went through 54 holes of qualifying this spring to make his second straight U.S. Open, spoke to the Associated Press earlier this month after the first round of the Royal Beach Victoria Open on the PGA Tour Canada. He would finish tied for 13th.

He earned $3,325. By qualifying for the U.S. Open, he received a $10,000 travel stipend for the trip to Brookline.

Without those funds, he said, “I don’t know how I would make it work.”

Neither he nor Silverman profess to be paying much attention to the LIV Tour, which has been the talk of The Country Club this week and which awarded a record-setting $4.75 million to the winner of its inaugural event, Charl Schwartzel, last weekend. The winner at this week’s national championship — which, like the other three majors, is closely connected to but not run by the PGA Tour — will make in the neighborhood of $2.25 million.

There is a lively and divisive debate about

what message the breakaway players are sending by cashing checks from LIV Golf.

The league is bankrolled by the Saudis, and the league’s front man, former No. 1 Greg Norman, touts the series as a “force for good” in golf. But to many, this is nothing more than the kingdom’s attempt to use sports to scrub its much-criticized human rights record.

From a pure golf standpoint, this league also is taking the rap for bucking a tradition that has long been baked into the sport’s DNA: Players earn their money based on how they perform, week to week, in any given tournament. (The sponsorship dollars that flow from that are separate, but are also mostly available to the players who demonstrate consistent success.)

LIV guarantees money to all 48 players in the field before they hit a shot. Mickelson received a reported $200 million simply for moving over to play in the series; Johnson received a reported $150 million. Last weekend’s last-place finisher made $120,000, or nearly 10 times what Shore has banked in his 15 months as a pro.

The “win-to-earn” format is a concept that has long separated golf and tennis (and bowling and a few other sports) from the worlds of pro football and basketball and soccer, where the checks clear no matter how the teams — or the players on them — fare.

The up-and-comers such as Shore and Sil-

verman have bought into the system as it is, and are hoping to earn or regain a foothold there.

That doesn’t mean they’re against the other model.

“You’d see guys playing amazing golf,” Silverman said of the idea that players would walk into tournaments with some sort of guaranteed payday. “And it would probably be more exciting for the fans because we wouldn’t be worried about making money.”

That mindset, Silverman said, has informed his new approach to life on the Korn Ferry Tour.

Now 34, the Ontario native began his pro career in 2013 with the help of backers who funded him. Thanks to a strong 2017 on the Korn Ferry that earned him a promotion to the PGA Tour, he has been able to pay them back with part of his $1.5 million in earnings, most won between 2017 and 2019. That money has also given him a cushion as he weathers tougher times, which now find him looking for a path back to the big show.

Working with famed golf psychologist Bob Rotella, Silverman says he has redefined his mission. His goal at every tournament is not simply to make the cut and cash a check.

“I’ve always played sports because I wanted to win,” Silverman said. “It never had anything to do with money. That’s the mindset I want to get back into.”

Maddux: Control still key Continued from Page B-1

Known affectionately as “Mad Dog” and “The Professor” during his playing days, Maddux logged at least 200 innings in all but one season between 1988 and 2006. Since retiring in 2008 he has seen the game steadily shift in the direction of limiting a pitcher’s time on the mound and the dramatic uptick in strikeouts, since everyone seems to be swinging for the fences in search of the greatest OPS, or whatever other acronym defines the success of a player in this day and age.

Of pitchers, he said the physical differences are obvious. At 6 feet and 170 pounds in his playing days, Maddux doesn’t much resemble some of the specimens who take the mound in today’s game.

“You know they’re obviously bigger, stronger, faster than we were,” he said.

“They throw harder, but I think the same rule applies today that it did a few decades ago.”

And that’s control. Hitting spots and changing speeds is far more dangerous

Wicked rude

Hall of Famer Greg Maddux signs a baseball for Alex ‘Booboo’ Varela, with the Roadrunner All-Stars, before Maddux threw the ceremonial first pitch of the Isotopes game Wednesday against the Salt Lake Bees.

than hitting triple digits on a radar gun.

“You look even today, you look at the top pitchers in the game today and they’re the ones executing the most pitches, not necessarily throwing the fastest or having the big slider and curveballs,” he said.

Maddux admits he’s not crazy about the idea of automated strike zones creeping their way into games. The

Isotopes’ Triple-A Pacific Coast League is experimenting with it this season and, it seems, it’s just a matter of time before it shows up in the big leagues.

“Now you see the high strike being called,” he said. “The two or three inches we got off the plate away, now it seems there’s another foot and a half up top that we didn’t get that the players today get.”

ARLINGTON, Texas — Astros starter Luis Garcia and reliever Phil Maton each threw an immaculate inning — nine pitches, three strikeouts — and Martín Maldonado keyed a six-run first inning that sent Houston over the Texas Rangers 9-2 on Wednesday.

Maldonado hit a two-run double in the first and later homered as the AL West-leading Astros wrapped up their seventh consecutive series victory against their instate division rival.

Garcia (4-5) struck out nine without a walk over six innings while limiting Texas to two runs and four hits.

Garcia had a span of five consecutive strikeouts that began with an immaculate second inning — when he threw only nine pitches to strike out Nathaniel Lowe, Ezequiel Duran and Brad Miller.

Those were the first three batters Maton faced after replacing Garcia to start the seventh. And Maton also recorded a nine-pitch, three-strikeout inning.

Astros and Rangers officials said it was the first time in MLB history to have two nine-pitch, three-strikeout innings in the same game — either both by one team, or each team recording one.

The only AL West team with a winning record, Houston (39-24) had lost four of five after dropping the series opener. The Astros then won 4-3 on Tuesday night with a four-run rally in the eighth inning, and started the series finale with another big outburst.

The Astros sent 11 batters to the plate in the first inning. The first nine faced fill-in starter Tyson Miller (0-1), who was gone after No. 9 batter Maldonado’s double to right.

Commanders’ Snyder won’t testify before U.S. House committee A lawyer representing Dan Snyder told Congress the Washington Commanders owner will not testify at a hearing next week as part of an investigation into the team’s workplace conduct.

Attorney Karen Patton Seymour sent a letter to the leaders of the House Committee on Oversight and Reform on Wednesday explaining the reasons why Snyder was declining the invitation to appear at the June 22 hearing. Among the reasons given were a lack of assurance about the scope of questioning given the existence of multiple ongoing investigations and a scheduling Dan Snyder conflict preventing Snyder from appearing in person.

Seymour wrote Snyder “is unable to accept the Committee’s invitation to testify” at the hearing, which the committee called the next step in the investigation and said it will examine how the NFL handles allegations of workplace misconduct and how it sets and enforces standards for all teams.

“Mr. Snyder remains fully willing to assist the committee in its investigation,” Seymour wrote in the letter addressed to Chairwoman Carolyn B. Maloney, D-N.Y., and Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy Chairman Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill.

Blatter, Platini face 20-month suspended prison sentences GENEVA — Prosecutors in the fraud trial of former FIFA President Sepp Blatter and Vice President Michel Platini asked Wednesday for both men to get 20-month suspended prison sentences.

Blatter and Platini, a former France national team captain who was president of European governing body UEFA, faced sentences of up to five years for financial wrongdoing but actual jail time was considered to be unlikely ahead of their 11-day trial. Verdicts are expected July 8.

The 86-year-old Blatter’s legal jeopardy increased Wednesday when prosecutors in FIFA’s home city Zurich confirmed to the Associated Press they had opened criminal proceedings against him in a separate complaint filed by soccer’s world body in 2020.

Maddux has ties to New Mexico, which makes him a good fit for Fruth and Idelson’s book tour. Maddux’s brother, Mike, pitched briefly for the old Albuquerque Dukes in 1990, and Maddux himself made a few stops here when he was coaching UNLV’s baseball team not long ago.

He even had time to visit with former University of New Mexico baseball coach Ray Birmingham before Wednesday’s promotional stop. The two shared stories of their time in the Mountain West, and how much the game has evolved over time.

Behind it all is Grassroots Baseball: Route 66.

“The hardest thing with New Mexico was editing it down,” Fruth said.

A famed baseball photographer, Fruth said she and Idelson — the former president of the Baseball Hall of Fame — will eventually release a third installment celebrating the contributions women have made to baseball.

As for this book, the pair turned to Houston Astros third baseman and Albuquerque native Alex Bregman to write an introductory essay that leads into the portion chronicling New Mexico. He shared memories of his time growing up here, of the Balloon Fiesta, childhood trips to the Rattlesnake Museum and, of course, playing the game that has defined his celebrity status in his hometown.

Associated Press

“I was wondering if Alex was even going to know what Route 66 is because he’s so young,” Fruth said. “Route 66 is so dated in that way.”

The chapter includes a tribute to Tesuque Pueblo and its influence on the sport. At one point, Route 66 meandered through Santa Fe, giving the City Different its own journey through time, one that continues with the Santa Fe Fuego in the independent Pecos League.

Idelson’s perspective on baseball is a rich and powerful one. He presided over the Hall of Fame for more than a dozen years. That’s on top of another 14 years as the director of public relations and as the organization’s vice president. He said he spent countless hours wandering around 60,000-square-foot Hall, often marveling at displays and mementos he’d forgotten about or simply wasn’t aware of.

When asked about what it takes for enshrinement, he said history continues to alter the way we define what it means to be great. To that end, there were very few who ever came close to what Maddux did during his 23 years in the bigs.

“Dominance is a different animal nowadays than it was prior like when Greg pitched,” Idelson said. “It’s hard to know what the crystal ball will give us, but it’s certainly not going to be 300 wins anymore. You’re probably going to see shorter careers and lesser win totals.

We’ll find out 10 years from now, 15 years from now what that standard is.”

By Ronald Blum Associated Press

NEW YORK — As FIFA prepares to announce the 2026 World Cup sites on Thursday — and make high-profile cuts — Alan Rothenberg thought back to when stadiums were picked for the 1994 tournament he headed in the United States.

“They gave the rights to the host country, and the host country basically ran the whole thing,” he said. “Here, everything is done in-house by FIFA. So it’s been a really long and arduous process. The terms have been incredibly difficult for cities to cope with.”

Seventeen stadiums in 16 areas remained in contention to be among 10-12 selected from the U.S. for the tournament, which will be co-hosted with Mexico and Canada. The U.S. will host 60 of the 80 games under FIFA’s plan, including all from the quarterfinals on, and there was little doubt over the venues for 10 games each in the other nations.

Last time, the nine U.S. stadiums were announced during a Waldorf-Astoria news conference 816 days before the opener.

This time, the decisions will be revealed by FIFA in a Fox television studio 1,456 days before the likely start.

In handicapping the bidders, there appeared to be several tiers: Locks: AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, and Met Life Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J., along with SoFi Stadium in Inglewood or the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.

In the hunt: Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta; M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore; Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass.; NRG Stadium in Houston; Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo.; Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Fla.; Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tenn.; Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia; Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif.; and Lumen Field in Seattle.

TONY GUTIERREZ/ASSOCIATED PRESS

Fans watch at the start of a game inside AT&T Stadium between the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys in 2013 in Arlington, Texas. There are 23 venues bidding to host soccer matches at the 2026 World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada.

Least likely: Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinnati; Empower Field at Mile High in Denver; and Camping World Stadium in Orlando, Fla. In the other countries: Mexico City’s Estadio Azteca, which hosted the 1970 and ’86 finals and will become the first stadium in three World Cups; Guadalajara’s Estadio Akron; Monterrey’s Estadio BBVA; Toronto’s BMO Field and Vancouver, British Columbia’s B.C. Place. Edmonton, Alberta’s Commonwealth Stadium was likely to be dropped.

“This country has even more than 17 cities capable of hosting the World Cup, and it will be a pity for those that miss out,” said Telemundo’s Andrés Cantor, who has broadcast the tournament since 1990 and will co-host the announcement. “But I don’t think it’s going to take away from the desire of the soccer fan to attend the game, wherever their country lands in 2026.”

Rothenberg said the decision remained uncertain in the final week between SoFi, which may need pricey renovations to create a wider field, and the Rose Bowl.

“Even to this moment, there’s

calls going on all day long trying to sort it out,” he said Tuesday.

“There will be discussions between the LA host committee and FIFA right up almost to the moment of the announcement.

The costs of LA are a huge part of the difficulty.”

Just two of the contending stadiums hosted games in 1994, the Rose Bowl joined by Orlando.

Dozens of training complexes have been built for MLS teams, creating a far better infrastructure than at the first World Cup in the U.S., when Italy worked out at The Pingry School in Basking Ridge, N.J., and the U.S. practiced ahead of its opener on a windswept field at Oakland University in Rochester, Michigan.

“It’s completely different from the standpoint that in a lot of these cities there’s a base of fans that have been sort of built up because of MLS,” said Tony Meola, the U.S. starting goalkeeper at that ’94 Cup. “We know Los Angeles and New York and Miami always had soccer fans, and they weren’t necessarily American soccer fans, but they were fans of some teams around the world. I think we’ve got just a little bit more of a fever for the game.”

Even those who wanted to dismiss Wiggins had to concede he could score. The No. 1 pick in the 2014 draft averaged 16.9 points when he won Rookie of the Year honors, and he never scored fewer than 17 per game again. But that rarely translated to winning, with Minnesota only making one playoff appearance while he was there, and it was easy to wonder what there was to Wiggins’ game besides the points.

Turns out, there’s a lot.

Coach Steve Kerr is surprised by how well Wiggins rebounds.

On defense, the 6-foot-7 Wiggins has taken on the tough assignments, doing his best to contain Dallas All-Star Luka Doncic in the Western Conference finals and now taking his turns on Celtics swingmen Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown.

It’s a versatility the Warriors say they knew was there, no matter how much it went unno-

ticed by others.

“He’s taken on every challenge that we have thrown in front of him, and that’s been huge,” Draymond Green said.

“And we need him to do that for one more win.”

Skepticism about Wiggins followed him to the NBA after he managed just four points in his final college game, when Kansas was upset by Stanford in the 2014 NCAA Tournament.

He took only six shots, a lackluster effort that created questions about how hard he was willing to work when things weren’t coming easily.

But Green said he was assured by Tom Thibodeau, the current Knicks coach who guided the Timberwolves to the lone postseason appearance with Wiggins, that the Warriors would love how hard Wiggins defends and competes.

They had acquired Wiggins in February 2020 along with a first-round pick when they dealt D’Angelo Russell to Minnesota.

Wiggins played well enough to

be voted to start his first AllStar Game this season, though even that didn’t earn him accolades that had been missing.

Wiggins was viewed as a player who had been miscast as a No. 1 option in Minnesota, and the reason he was playing well for Golden State was because he didn’t have that burden on a team led by Curry.

Yet when Curry struggled in Game 5, missing all nine 3-point attempts, Wiggins looked every bit the part of main man.

Curry will likely still be the NBA Finals MVP if the Warriors win the series. But Wiggins has at least made it a discussion instead of a foregone conclusion.

“It’s amazing what you do with opportunity,” Curry said.

“Take away the comparisons, the narratives around him as a No. 1 pick, what everybody wanted him to be, his first six years in the league looked like.

There’s a reason we wanted him here. There’s a reason that trade made sense for us. There was a high hope that he would be able to figure it out at this level in terms of taking his scoring ability, his athleticism, his defensive potential, just taking it to another notch.”

Avalanche beat Lightning in OT Continued from Page B-1

played a major role, with Nick Paul outracing Colorado defenseman Jack Johnson to a loose puck for a goal in the first that limited the damage and kept the defending champs in the game. Brandon Hagel, who has been banged up and was a question mark to play, got beaten to a loose puck by Landeskog, an uncharacteristic goal for reigning playoff MVP Andrei Vasilevskiy to give up by letting the initial shot sneak through under his left arm.

In another example of what has made the Lightning the NHL’s best team over the past three years, they turned the tide in the second period with goals

by Ondrej Palat and Mikhail Sergachev 48 seconds apart.

That set the stage for the first of

what should be many fantastic finishes in a series between evenly matched opponents.

“There’s some positive signs for us in this game,” Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. “But the right team won the game, so give them credit for pulling it out.”

The arena was rocking from the start of warmups for the first Stanley Cup Final game in the city in 2001 — also the last year the Avalanche won the Stanley Cup, with Sakic serving as captain. Fans chanted, “We want the Cup!” throughout the leadup and at times during the game, which was a showcase of the high-scoring hockey that has been the standard all season.

Tampa Bay’s most prolific goal-scorer from each of the past two title runs was back,

with center Brayden Point returning to play his first game since injuring his right leg a month ago.

Colorado has a series lead despite playing without forwards Nazem Kadri (right thumb) and Andrew Cogliano (right hand), who were injured last series in a sweep of Edmonton in the Western Conference final.

The Avalanche swept Nashville in the first round, as well, and dispatched rival St. Louis in six before taking out Connor McDavid and the Oilers. If anything, Game 1 against the Lightning showed this series won’t be easy for either team.

I don’t think by a country mile we gave them our best game,” Cooper said. “To beat a team like that, we need to have better in us.”

This velvet hippo has a traumatic history behind that giant smile and buoyant spirit. Mia was grazed by a bullet, which took a little piece of her left ear …and her owner’s life was tragically taken by that bullet too. The missing piece of her ear is physical reminder of the missing piece of her heart, but this resilient 6 year old girl is ready for a second chance at a new beginning - she has so much love to give and so much living left to do!

Jennifur is the tiniest of pixie sprites! This oneyear-old kitty tips the scales at just four pounds, and those giant full-moon eyes are swoon worthy.

This itty bitty kitty is a charm! All of our adoptable pets go home spayed or neutered, up to date on vaccines and dewormer, and microchipped!

Alamos County. The tank coating has deteriorated through the years and the tank requires repainting. Repainting the water tank is a routine lifeextension project that would keep the steel structure from corroding. The tank interior, which comes in contact with the drinking LEGALS water, would be repainted with a threecoat painting system.

The tank exterior would be coated with a primer and finish coat. All work would be performed per the requirements of the American Water Works Association.

The new paint would protect the tank for the next thirty years.

Project Description and Background: The Los Alamos County municipal water system has sixteen booster stations and twelve water wells which convey water throughout the County with antiquated motor-control centers.

The majority of the motor-control and associated electric gear has been in service for over 25 years. In recent years, Los Alamos County has experienced an increasing number of motor-control centers failing. As such, the project would involve acquiring the services of an engineer to assess and prioritize facility upgrades and replacement of motor-control centers, including the associated electric gear.

The project would also involve rehabilitating and/or replacing the top four priority facilities identified in the study. Existing motor-control centers would be replaced or upgraded in the same location as the existing equipment. The power supply to the centers may also be upgraded. The buildings would not be replaced or modified and there would be no outdoor sitework. If necessary, some indoor control valves may be replaced.

Approval: The conclusions presented here are based on the findings of an independent review of the application materials, including a CE checklist and supporting documentation, for the proposed action. Based on the independent review, the proposed action qualifies as a CE and no extraordinary circumstances exist that would prevent the issuance of this CE Determination.

Therefore, this documentation will serve as a record stating that the proposed action may be categorically excluded from the environmental review process because the action fits within an eligible category.

The responsible official shall revoke a CE and shall require a full environmental review if, subsequent to the granting of an exclusion, the responsible official determines that (1) the proposed action no longer meets the requirements for a CE due to changes in the proposed action; or (2) determines from new evidence that serious local or environmental issues exist; or (3) that federal, state, local, or tribal laws are being or may be violated.

HOROSCOPE The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Thursday, June 16, 2022: You are forever youthful, persuasive and imaginative. At times you are guarded. You keep your distance from others.

This year is the beginning of a fresh, new nine-year cycle for you, which means you must be courageous and ready to open any door!

MOON ALERT: Avoid shopping or making important decisions from 2:30 p.m. to 6 p.m. EDT today (11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. PDT).

After that, the Moon moves from Capricorn into Aquarius.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Things are much cozier today. (Grumpy yesterday is gone.) Today’s Moon placement makes you high-viz. People notice you, especially bosses, parents and VIPs. Tonight: A warm talk with a friend.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Today you’re looking for answers, and maybe even the truth with a capital “T.” Later in the day, do be aware that people notice you, especially people in authority. Tonight: Play by the rules.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Things are mellow today.

However, they begin with the Moon in one of your Money Houses; therefore, be aware of the restrictions of the Moon Alert. Tonight: Learn something.

CRYPTOQUIP

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Be prepared to go more than halfway today while the Moon is opposite your sign.

However, after it moves into Aquarius (see Moon Alert), you will wrap up money matters, especially related to banking and shared property. Tonight: Tidy up business.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Home, family and your private life are your priority this morning. In fact, some of you might want to cocoon at home for a good part of this day.

Tonight: Make plans for a fun evening.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Today you’re keen to work hard and be efficient because you want results for your efforts. Tonight: Sincere communication.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Today begins with a playful vibe. (This is a lighter day than yesterday.) A long lunch with a friend or a fun, social outing will delight you.

Tonight: You’re focused.

TODAY IN HISTORY

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Today you’re eager to communicate your ideas because you have something to say. Be smart and be aware of the restrictions of the Moon Alert so you don’t agree to anything important or make an important appointment.

Tonight: Home repairs.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Today you’re focused on moneymaking ideas, cash flow and perhaps shopping Tonight: Study and learn.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You have strong feelings about various issues today because the Moon is still in your sign. Always remember that for two days every month, when the Moon is in your sign, your luck improves! Tonight: Moneymaking ideas.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH This is a nicer day compared to yesterday. People are happier and up for some fun back-and-forth, which suits you just fine. Tonight: Study and learn.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH A happier day! You will enjoy talking to others. You also will appreciate your daily surroundings more than usual.

Tonight: Research history and secrets.

D EA R A N N I E

Man wants a new dog Dear Annie: My wife and I married four and a half years ago, the second marriage for both of us. I have had dogs virtually all of my life. My wife was aware of this. I brought three dogs into the marriage, and my wife was also well aware of their habits. She likes dogs, but she does not adore them as I do because of the hair that they shed and the fact that our Boston terrier sometimes urinates in the house, making it difficult to keep the carpet clean.

Two of our pups are 10 years old; the other is 11. We will likely lose all of them within a couple of years. My wife has proclaimed that when our dogs have all departed, she does not want any others.

This is devastating to me. She has been cool to my suggestion of a compromise in which we have two dogs, neither of which would be a breed that sheds a great deal of hair.

I do not know how we get around this logjam, and it is something that is causing me great distress well before we face this. Any advice you could offer would be appreciated. — Dog Lover Dear Dog Lover: When someone says they don’t like dogs, what they probably mean to say is they don’t like the mess they make, the training they need and the money they cost. You’re already halfway there by suggesting a dog breed that doesn’t shed. Next, assure your wife you’ll lead the charge with all the dog-related chores — and then follow through.

Dear Annie: My 22-year-old nephew is an only child who lives with his parents and has never lived on his own. He dropped out of college and has never held a job for more than a couple of weeks. He has no interest in learning to drive, and his parents drive him to and from events he wishes to attend. His parents pay for his entertainment, and they treat him to expensive dinners out at least once a week.

He doesn’t have any chores or responsibilities and isn’t expected to pay rent or otherwise earn his keep. His parents don’t seem to be interested in pushing him to grow up, and I’m concerned about his future.

His parents had him later in life, and I’m worried about what is going to happen to him when they are gone. He doesn’t have any skills and is totally undisciplined.

When I mentioned my concerns to his parents, they just shrugged it off and said they didn’t want to push him to do anything he doesn’t want to do. Is there anything I can do to help this young man? I’m really worried about him. — Concerned Dear Concerned: Try spending more time with your nephew to get a sense of what career paths might make sense for him. Does he have a passion or a certain set of skills? Remind him that a job is more than a way to pay the bills; it can provide a sense of fulfillment and boost self-esteem.
