Based on new rules, this Republican congressman from Arizona will be fined $5000 for blowing past the metal detectors in the United States Capitol that are meant to check for weapons.

Can you imagine what would happen if you did that?
Congresswoman @laurenboebert did it too, according to @GarrettHaake
By the way, the fine will come from his/her paycheck.
“Rep. Andy Biggs’ two brothers have publicly castigated him for sowing doubt about President Joe Biden’s election win and called for his removal from office.”

Larry was the King of asking short, soulful questions.
Growing up as a kid, Larry King Live was appointment viewing for me. Getting the chance to work around him was a highlight of my life. ImageImageImageImage
He was game for just about anything, but not everything. His impatience meant interviews were never boring.
Even into his 80s, he was competitive & inquisitive. He and I were having a conversation one day about people he’d love to meet. Best I recall, there was no one.
That’s because he had met, and or interviewed them. I told him I had a dream of meeting @DrMayaAngelou. He said, “you want to meet Maya?” He then reached into his pocket and pulled out his flip phone and dialed someone.

A Louisiana broadcasting legend has died after a courageous battle with ALS. Donna Britt read a teleprompter like she was talking off the top of her head. Natural. Graceful. Personable. Charismatic. And always with a little humor. @WAFB is the powerhouse it is because of Donna.
“The best anchorwoman I ever worked with was Donna Britt,” said George Sells, her co-anchor from 1988 to 2012. “I’m talking about aggressiveness, ability to dig out a story on the telephone when nobody wanted to give it to us. … She could write.”theadvocate.com/baton_rouge/ne…

... computer or hard drive from Speaker Pelosi’s office. The witness told the FBI that “WILLIAMS intended to send the computer device to a friend in Russia, who then planned to sell the device to SVR, Russia’s foreign intelligence service...”
