This is more or less where I am. Would I vote Mamdani in normal times? No. Would I support him over fascists and their throne-sniffing toadies? Fucking absolutely.

Nobody stopped Freddie Oversteegen to ask if she was a socialist when she was luring Nazis into the woods and killing them.

Happy Halloween from the scariest creatures ever.

Opinion: When tribes say no, Alaska’s leaders should listen “No” only counts when it doesn’t inconvenience the fossil fuel industry.

Oh please.

Mamdani is working miracles in NYC:

- He has united both Blue and Red MAGA in their disdain of him

- He’s making Fox & Facebook work overtime to produce BS memes tarnishing his positions

- His working class movement is making ruling class oligarchs very nervous

More of this defiance, please.

We should not just be asking the real price of this ballroom, how it’s really being financed and how Trump could get away with this East Wing demolition and desecration of our history. We should find out whether he’s building an underground bunker and how much he’s stealing for himself.

Reporting From Alaska- Crum helped launch a private investment fund while serving as commissioner Dunleavy said that Crum “pursued investment opportunities with several other potential investment firms,” but the negotiations were halted. When were the negotiations halted and why? I suspect that o...

Trump’s drug wars:

In 9 months, he’s threatened to attack Mexico and annex Canada.

He started a tariff battle with China over fentanyl, bombed Colombian fishermen and is now gearing up to strike Venezuela.

There is no end game.

He’s just a bully. With an army. Looking for someone to push around.

The president has still not signed the governors disaster declaration request for Alaska.

This is directly keeping funding out of the hands of disaster survivors who need it.

There’s a reason that protests against Alaska Senator Dan Sullivan are rare. It’s because Dan hides from publicly addressing his constituents in any number vs meeting people who are screened to be agreeable or have money or resources they’re willing to trade.

Another "critical" loss for many is beading and craft supplies! I shudder to think how many cookie tins full of projects floated away or got waterlogged.
Not to mention sewing machines, fabrics, skins and notions lost.

oh that breaks my heart 😢💔

Call Nobel.

Just want the rest of the country to know that the Alaska National Guard is being deployed and utilized for ALL THE RIGHT REASONS today!

They’re aiding with search/rescue and disaster relief to several Alaska Native villages hit with a climate change induced natural disaster

They’re saving lives

Vance: I’m sure that in the course of his life he has been paid more than $50,000 for services. The question is did he do something illegal.

Stephanopoulos: I’m asking if Homan accepted the $50,000

Vance: Is it illegal to take a payment for doing services? Low income women can’t get food

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

1) I once again take this opportunity to remind you: to keep its basic functioning, society has to discourage baldfaced lying, especially by authorities

2) is...is it happening?

it's a little more nuanced than that... but yes, this is what I am reading today.

Kotzebue has issued a mandatory evacuation order as flooding from coastal storm begins Water could rise as much as 10 feet above the high tide line, according the National Weather Service

Keep Western AK, especially Kotzebue in your prayers.

Top parasite in the top class of parasites.

Virginia Burger, a senior defense analyst at the Project on Government Oversight, told Democracy Docket that while Trump has made similar comments in the past, his remarks this time were especially dangerous because they were addressed to the people most likely to stand in his way.

Thanks to lower-case trump, I have a choice: pay for a Rx originating in India with a $200 tariff, or get the meds from the UK with an $80 tariff. It is impossible to explain the logic of tariffs and who pays (me) to MAGA.

This administration doesn't want Abrego Garcia to go free in part due to vindictiveness against the man himself and the courts protecting his rights, but even more because his freedom would underline the unjust, arbitrary nature of the detention project and reveal it a power grab that can be undone.

This is what is happening right now.

Great day for Alaska. The legislature just backed down our terrible governor. #akleg

Yay!!! 💃🏼💃🏼🤣💃🏼💃🏼

Lawmakers override Gov. Dunleavy's veto of oil tax transparency bill The bill originally passed the Senate unanimously and by a 30-10 vote in the House.

Lawmakers said it was necessary to address what the heads of the state House and Senate described as a “persistent pattern of obstruction within the senior ranks of Alaska’s Department of Revenue.”

This afternoon the Alaska Legislature exercised its Constitutional powers to invest in education. The governor with his first-ever veto of BSA funding was strongly rebuked by #akleg, with a vote of 45-14.

Alaska lawmakers override 2 Dunleavy vetoes, restoring $50M in education funding Lawmakers adjourned a joint session without considering any of Dunleavy’s other recent vetoes, including of school maintenance and construction funding and other bills that passed with bipartisan supp...

We did not give up. We did not step aside nor were we defeated.

Thank you to every legislator who put Alaska's kids first today.
