Old school IT engineer, weather gazer, Padres sufferer. RIP Heidi (Oct ‘23) & Wolfgang (Jan ‘24). I talk about CHF & Parkinsons cause I have them. USAF vet.
With much regret I announce that I am resigning as one of the Senators from New Mexico. I’m proud of the work and items me & my team accomplished, even if never “technically” elected.

Remember, you can take the green chile out of NM but you can never take the NM out of the green chile!

“Fried soybeans, steamed soybeans, baked soybeans, soybean scampi …” - Forrest Trump
Trump: "I say that our soybeans -- I told this to President Xi -- our soybeans are more nutritious than competitors. Somebody said, 'Is that a Trump statement, or is that real?' You know who asked me that question? President Xi. But that's what I hear."

If y’all will excuse me I have to go get some preventative blood work done. Then later I’m getting a portrait taken to preventatively prevent aging. All in a day’s work!

Political journalism, taken as a whole, has been destroyed. The Sunday shows are just metaphorically bouncing the rubble.
WELKER: Is the administration ending all legal immigration into the United States?

KRISTI NOEM: The president is absolutely determined to stop all processes at this point in time from third world countries

It’s always fun to see the clips of the Sunday political shows because you get to go “yep the news lets people lie to them for an hour and airs it”

Because the computer will figure out who plays in the Mountain West title game - and we have no idea how that will work - I don’t know who to root for in UNLV & Nevada. If UNLV wins there’s a 4-way tie, they lose it’s 3-way. So Go Computer I guess.

As a veteran, I stand with Mark Kelly. I’m nobody so if Pete Hegseth or Donald Trump want a piece of me well okay, take your shot. There are first day basic trainees with more military bearing and knowledge than Hegseth or Vance.

Whew, somebody in DC is having a real bad day I see. Sign a bill, lose your mind.

Frankly, nobody craps on this country (literally or figuratively) more than Donald J. Trump.
Trump: "You can't come in, open a massive computer chip factory for billions of dollars like is being done in Arizona, and think you're gonna hire people off an unemployment line to run it. They're gonna have to bring thousands of people with them and I'm gonna welcome those people. This is MAGA."

Threads: DId you catch that idiot Texas trooper?

BlueSky: Did you catch that idiot Texas trooper?

FB: Did you catch that idiot Texas trooper? Here’s my AI version!

X: When are they jailing those gang members who harassed and attacked that poor Texas trooper?

There’s a new smell permeating the White House - that whiff of desperation. (Note I didn’t say a better smell …)

Northern Lights from Ojo Encino, NM (as far south as Los Alamos). Was even somewhat visible with the naked eye.

Congratulations. Now that Trump & the GOP know where the pain point is for certain naive Democrats to cry uncle, get ready to cry uncle a LOT over the next year.

Pundits & media: Only Democrats have agency.

Certain Ds: We have to reopen government no matter the price because only we can. We can’t expect the GOP to do anything - it’s up to us!

Pundits & media: Heh heh, we were right.

Repeating, Senate Democrats are not our saviors.

Was the cockroach named Pete Hegseth?
The suspect in the deaths of two men at a South Valley home Friday night told deputies an encrypted message from a cockroach told him "he needed to kill," according to the Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office.

Today’s New Mexico blue sky. The sheep flock I’m watching is barely visible in the center, they’re trying to sneak past me up the arroyo. A touch windy but not half bad for November.

The guy who threw a sub sandwich was acquitted, and the DC US Attorney’s office got toasted.

Hey, looks like it’s about time for Trump to disappear again for another dose of magical mystery medical work.

Look, JD Vance didn’t really say he wanted his *wife* to convert from Hindu to Christianity. He meant HE wanted to convert from a Hindu wife to a Christian one.

Simply cannot wait for all the dumb journalists’ books next year explaining why Trump got an MRI & a cognitive test, rather than spoiling me with that news *now*.

The price of beef has gotten so high even the Trump Administration can’t afford to throw red meat to their base anymore.

If the Arizona Cardinals lose this game & I’m the coach … I cut that damn fool running back immediately. Then make him walk home.
