Maybe there's a toilet and a bucket of KFC in the room behind that door that he's trying to get to.

This shot of Sinatra & right after it from the front in Manchurian Candidate looks almost exactly like one of my brothers. I never think that otherwise or at other times there is much similarity between him & Sinatra other than maybe eyes. Me & that brother do not really resemble each other at all.

Don't leave w/o getting one! I used to eat at Weck's a lot for a casual breakfast and I can't remember the name of the pizza place but some of them in ABQ have good green chili combos and sometimes ones with chipotle for a unique pizza experience that isn't quite the same in other cities or homemade

Me neither. And no sign from Congress that they'll stop abdicating their authority on tariffs (or a host of other issues) to that buffoon any time soon either.

It's the same story w/AZ Gov Hobbs attacking the 1st Amend rights of citizens by signing her anti-porn age-verification bill in order to score political points that may benefit her in her next election.

Prediction:
In as little as one year to a few years from now, Donald Trump can boast that he groomed a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize!

Who will it be!? Pritzker? Newsom? A dark horse that rises from obscurity? What about a past winner like Obama that returns with a sense of duty to restore sanity?

MAGA is used to grifters like Jack Posobiec, Benny Johnson, Tim Pool, Charlie Kirk, & Laura Loomer, who need to be paid to protest & bash Dems. They can't fathom that Dems/Independents protest MAGA for free. 🤷‍♀️

If he fails to swear her in on that day, he will be depriving all AZ07 residents of all political persuasions, their right to representation.

Now that Speaker Johnson has extended the House recess it is very important to watch whether or not he swears in AZ07 Rep-Elect @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social on the day that her special election win is certified by the state of AZ. I believe Oct. 14 is the date that occurs.

The corruption between local GOP controlled government in the tri-cities, their police depts top to bottom (to include reject cops that end up there from larger agencies elsewhere & gangster cops like Iron Brotherhood members, one of which became a top PPD guy), and fire agencies is unrivaled.

Unilaterally? I would hope not. Don't get me wrong, it needs to be done but with authority of Congress or somehow through the court system but Congress seems a more ideal and expedient (that sounds crazy I know to say expedient with the rate at which Congress generally operates) than thru courts.

I have serious concerns about US mil opsec having a Qatari base there. That base might've had top security/classified air tech & training occur there & might still today. This seems much more dangerous on many levels than just training foreign pilots how to fly US craft like occurs @ LukeAFB&elswhre

An aside to the Qatari air base deal at Mtn Home AFB in ID. I was on that base in the 80s. Nice base. The 10 min drive from the AFB to the town of Mtn Home was the longest 10 min drive I've ever experienced & it feels that way every time you drive it.
