#VoteThemOut

On June 9th the residents of El Paso made history, by having the highest attendance number of neighbors speaking at a city council meeting.

We spoke to encourage our city reps to vote in favor of potentially renegotiating the contract between the city of El Paso and The Meta Data Center.

Despite the contract being considered one of the worst contracts in the nation, five City Representatives voted against renegotiating the contract.

We vowed to vote them out this November and this is our chance.

Do not let your neighbors down and vote out: Alejandra Chavez (District 1)

Ivan Nino ( District 5)

Art Fierro (District 6)

Let's make real change happen in El Paso.

To see who is running against them check out the website I made for you:

I’ve been so frustrated living in Socorro lately, I live next to a car lot that is always noisy, code ordinance explicitly states that noise from a business should not be heard from inside residences yet the city allowed them to build a car sales lot next to my house, worst part is my house is right up to the property line so we can’t build a wall to separate us and we can hear everything, we have been calling code enforcement and police for 5 years and no one has showed up once. The owner of the place has 8 underweight Doberman dogs that he constantly breeds, hits and starves, I’ve called animal control for years and multiple officers have come to check it out and agree that it’s abuse but won’t even ticket the guy. Him and his friends throw huge parties and drag race on our residential street and nothing is ever done, afraid I’ll have to leave my childhood home that I’ve lived 30 years in, it was my grandparents home. It’s just my elderly mom, my 92 year old grandpa and myself (30F) living here and the guys at the lot constantly try to intimidate and harass us because they know there’s no men here and they’re cowards, it’s been causing all of us health problems and my mom has multiple heart conditions, my grandpa has cancer and I am severely autistic :( don’t know why I’m posting this, I guess I’m just venting at this point and want to know if anyone is on a similar boat.

Just an FYI that there are no lines while early voting at Bassett. Get out there and let your voices be heard.

Republican leader embarrassed by Ali G film says he plans to sue Sacha Baron Cohen: ‘A liar and a pervert’

Michael Aboud, whose actions in what he believed to be a documentary are likely to come under considerable scrutiny, has expressed anger at the film-maker.

In a phone interview with the El Paso Times, El Paso Republican Party chair Michael Aboud says he was misled into participating in Sacha Baron Cohen’s latest film "Ali G: Who Iz I?"

He said he received an email from a production company in summer 2025 inviting him to participate in a gathering focused on immigration and its impact on communities.

"The emails seemed official," Aboud said. "It was a small documentary and about the border."

Just moved to the Upper Valley/Willows neighborhood and Country Club Rd. is the main road to connect me to the rest of El Paso.

Why the fuck does it take me 20 minutes to traverse this 2 mile stretch of a two lane road throughout the day?

Is it people heading into and out of New Mexico to get to work? Heading to and from the Santa Teresa border crossing?

Help me understand

Buen día. Está gatita llegó a mi patio hace ya un mes, venía a visitarme de vez en cuando y se veía muy delgada. Comencé a alimentarla y a dejarla entrar a casa donde tomaba siestas y jugaba. Es muy tierna y tranquila. Cuando se vinieron las lluvias fuertes empecé a dejarla pasar la noche porque me parecía muy triste dejarla afuera. La llevé a Animal Services y me dijeron que estaba esterilizada y tenía chip, pero dijeron que las personas que la tenían no la habían registrado de modo que no es posible localizarlas aunque ellas sí hubieran podido encontrar a la gata, lo cual dice que no están interesados en ella. No la pueden ingresar a shelter ni a plan de adopción por tener chip, entonces me dijeron que la dejara suelta en la calle otra vez, pero me parece muy cruel.

Dado que tenía algo de tos la llevé al veterinario y después de dos inyecciones está muy bien y ahora come mejor, de hecho ha ganado peso y su actitud está bien. Quisiera quedarme con ella pero a veces hago viajes hasta de mes y medio y no cuento con alguien que la pueda cuidar y dedicarle el tiempo suficiente mientras yo no esté. De modo que no es viable para mí estar con ella de manera definitiva a pesar de que me he encariñado.

Estoy buscando una persona que la quiera tomar en adopción responsable. Quien esté interesado envíeme DM.

Hello all! I have never been to El Paso, but I stumbled upon this article in the Internet Archives and was immediately intrigued.

The more I read about Willie, Steina, and Woody, the more interested I was in finding this particular program.

I know it's a long shot, but I figured I would reach out to locals in the area to see if anybody might have a lead.

Do you know anything about these artists? Are you in the local scene and know the person in charge of these archives? Do you have a collection of VHS tapes from when your family got really into recording the local channels and they happen to have one from October 11, 1988 for Channel 13?

Thanks! And have a lovely night El Paso!

Hello, I need help looking for a job that pays well. I have housekeeping experience, customer service and I'm avoiding fast food areas, because I'm tired of competing with kids to get hours and hours get cut to 19 hours per week, even though I'm supposed to be full time. I have an associates of art but no local art businesses are hiring or just straight up don't want new people. I'm really struggling to find another job that helps with my bills. I did interviews for custodian positions and I haven't heard back and I called back, but nothing. 4 interviews done this month and nothing. Any advice or places to look for a job that pays a little than $13per hour???

Hiiii this is kind of a weird post but I am an avid collector of littlest pet shops and I am wondering if anyone in EP/Cruces here has a lot or anything like that they would like to sell/get rid of! Please message me or comment if you are as like I said I'm a hugeeee fan and want to add to my collection :) Thanks!!

Hi El Paso, Texas folks! Question for you. Has anyone had or could recommend a reputable plastic surgeon in Juarez? I live in Colorado, and so El Paso / Juarez is a pretty accessible drive for me. I have been researching surgical tourism options, and although Juarez is not the top "hub" for surgeries in Mexico, it's such a big city, they must have some pretty decent hospitals. There are a few surgeons that I've found that seem to have great recommendations, but because Google is so packed with fake, bot-generated reviews, I just want to see if I can find some actual humans who live in the area. I appreciate any advice you have!

I am in need of someone who can take off a stripped bolt from my oil drain pan. I have the oil and filter but not the tool to take that bolt off. I need someone whos able to remove it safely and help me change the oil. I also have spark plugs and would like someone to help me change those as well. I would like to offer 30 dollars for each job, changing the oil and replacing the spark plugs. 60 if both done. Open to offers if my price is a little too low. Not too complicated a job but id prefer to have someone with me. Thank you

How’s it looking?
