    U.S. Deported Iranians With Iranian Input | Grand Junction News

    Newly leaked emails reveal U.S. immigration officials secretly collaborated with Iran to deport over 100 Iranians on three separate flights in 2025 and 2026 — even as tensions soared and just months after a brutal 12-day war involving the U.S. and Israel. Iranian authorities reportedly dictated who got deported, with ICE officials altering lists at the last minute to comply — a shocking reversal from decades of U.S. policy welcoming Iranian dissidents. Human rights groups are outraged, especially given Iran’s brutal crackdown on women, minorities, and political opponents. The deportations were apparently a top priority, with one ICE official calling them so during active conflict — despite logistical nightmares like Iran withholding travel documents and airspace closures. It’s unclear how many were forced or willing, but reports suggest asylum seekers were among them — including at least one person added to a flight without being on the final list, leaving officials baffled.

    OWL Moves to New Wildwood Site | Grand Junction News

    Mesa County’s beloved Outdoor Wilderness Program, OWL, is relocating to a new 34-acre site near Grand Junction after wildfire damage and safety concerns forced a move from Gateway. The land, originally purchased for a high school that never materialized, now offers more space for adventure and stronger community ties. With input from Colorado Mesa University and a newly formed Community Action Group, the district has already completed Phase One — ready for students this fall — while long-term buildings are slated for 2028. Despite some neighborhood pushback over evolving plans and costs, demand remains high, with hundreds of overnight trips booked already. The district’s $150K contribution is supplemented by grants and donations, ensuring OWL continues to thrive as a vital outdoor education hub.

    Restaurant Inspections Exposed | Grand Junction News

    Mesa County Public Health is on the move, inspecting restaurants from Loma to Collbran—checking for safety lapses and responding to complaints. Their biweekly reports, now digital-only, give you a real-time peek into what’s going down at your favorite spots. Recent inspections revealed some serious red flags: raw meats stored above ready-to-eat food, dangerously lukewarm hot dishes, cross-contamination, improper handwashing, and missing date labels. Places like Taste of Chang An and 357 Reloaded got second chances and improved, while Ho Palace and Mi Mexico are still waiting for re-inspections. It’s not just about flavor—it’s about keeping you safe from illness. The bottom line? Stay informed, because consistent violations tell a bigger story than any single inspection.

    Grand Junction Votes on Pool Future | Grand Junction News

    Grand Junction voters face a pivotal decision this November as the city council clears the way for a $12 million bond and a small sales tax hike to revamp the aging Orchard Mesa Pool. Supporters, clad in blue, argue it’s a vital community hub, while a recent survey shows the issue is deeply divided—with 38% in favor, 43% opposed, and 19% undecided. If approved, the tax would rise from 3.39% to 3.46% starting January 2027, funding repairs and ensuring the pool’s future. Advocates like Carol Ward call it a long-awaited win, but the outcome will shape how locals engage with this cherished—but crumbling—asset.
