We Ranked The 10 Best Hole-In-The-Wall Restaurants In New Mexico And Here Is Who Made The Cut

One modest Albuquerque cafe on this list has its own official day, proclaimed by the Governor of New Mexico. Not a trophy. Not a plaque. A whole day. That cafe opened in 1963, and the James Beard Foundation later named it one of America’s Classics. I think that says a lot about how this state treats its small, unfussy kitchens.

Deb Haaland and Peggy Flanagan Mark Their Historic Wins in Intentional Earrings

Last night, the 2026 midterm election results delivered plenty of historic firsts. It was a particularly powerful night for Native American representation: Democrat Deb Haaland became the first Native American woman to be elected as Governor of New Mexico, while Peggy Flanagan—the current lieutenant governor of Minnesota—became the first Native woman to win the U.S. Senate seat in her state. (And there could even be a third victory for the Indigenous community today: at the time of publishing this story, Alaska’s Mary Peltola is currently leading the race for a Senate seat, too.)

Albuquerque aviation company facing a federal lawsuit

Albuquerque, NM (KKOB) — CSI Aviation, an Albuquerque aviation management company, is facing a federal lawsuit in Washington, D.C. The suit accuses the company of participating in an illegal rendition scheme with the Trump administration that allegedly led to Venezuelan migrants being tortured in a South American prison. The lawsuit alleges that in 2025, 230 shackled migrants were loaded onto three planes chartered by one of CSI’s subcontractors. A federal judge in Washington, D.C., issued an order that same day to halt the planes or turn them around, but the lawsuit claims the Trump administration instructed the flights to proceed. According to federal spending records, in 2025, CSI was awarded $1.3 billion by ICE to facilitate deportation flights.
