Hey do you guys remember way back in the Biden Administration when the deficit and the national debt were considered significant political issues by Republicans and the national press? Glad they fixed that one, huh.

Alaska has a constitutional right to privacy, and the state might have violated that right with the handover.
Legislators are trying to investigate, but they're being stonewalled by elections officials: alaskabeacon.com/2026/03/06/a... #akleg #Alaska

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs
And also,
That ship did get unstuck.
Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica.
They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

"We're fighting to win the war"
We are a week in and absolutely nobody has any idea what the political aim we're attempting to achieve is. Win what? Literally what are we fighting to achieve at the moment.
I have absolutely no idea atm if we are close to winning because I have no idea what we want
Loudly announcing future conquests is a bit of a breach of modern diplomatic norms. Hard-pressed to think of precedents; most invaders at least cling to some shred of a casus belli.
I have broken
the oil trade
that was in
the gulf
and which
you were probably
saving
for industry
Forgive me
the clout was delicious
so sweet
and so cold
I feel like I haven’t even been properly lied to about the purposes of this war

This is on the state's Cascade Point project, a new ferry terminal that 92% of comments oppose. The state's process has been fishy to say the least. #akleg #alaskasky
So far, none of the headlines deem it worthy of pointing out that he brutally snapped the Marine’s arm.
Despite President Donald Trump’s promise to “drill, baby, drill,” a federal oil and gas auction in Cook Inlet generated zero offers from bidders this week.
We can’t clean up Washington without restoring integrity to the Supreme Court.
That’s why I believe we should expand the Supreme Court to 13 justices. And then, institute term limits.
Because an appointment to the Supreme Court shouldn’t mean a lifetime lack of accountability.
I wish some major media outlets would do broad reports on the impact of death threats on our politics, and on who's doing them (MAGA men mostly from what I can tell), and why law enforcement appears to be doing so little about them. They are such a big (submerged) part of our politics now.
In a normal country, this level of corruption would generate huge headlines across the media landscape.
Idea: policies that do good things instead of bad things
More like Alabama's News Source?
Dilley detainees said art supplies have been removed in room searches, immigrants have lost access to Gmail and staff hover within earshot during video calls.
The Trump administration and private prison operator CoreCivic disputed detainees’ claims.
things every single republican president of your lifetime has done
- started a war in the middle east
- completely destroyed the economy

When deciding whether or not to run for Congress after Don passed, I asked my family what they thought. I remember my son saying, “that sounds really cool! You’d be just like Elizabeth Peratrovich!”
But of course… nobody can match up to Elizabeth Peratrovich.
Turns out the Dunleavy/Dahlstrom administration is falling over itself to make it harder to vote in Alaska.

The Senate Finance Committee is underway with its hearing on Mt. Edgecumbe High School. The committee led a junket to the boarding school last week after learning 25% of the student body left, with Sen. Hoffman calling the condition of the building "deplorable."
