affirm.
In his opening brief, Granados does not address the district court’s
determination that he failed to prosecute the action and has therefore waived his
challenge to the dismissal. See Indep. Towers of Wash. v. Washington, 350 F.3d
925, 929 (9th Cir. 2003) (explaining that “we cannot manufacture arguments for
appellant and . . . will not consider any claims that were not actually argued in
appellant’s opening brief” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)); Acosta-
Huerta v. Estelle, 7 F.3d 139, 144 (9th Cir. 1993) (issues not supported by
argument in pro se appellant’s opening brief are waived).
AFFIRMED.
