Active duty during each of five decades. Drafted ‘69. Best coffee ever? Remembering the thermos 200 miles into a 3,000 mile road trip. Unless you are here to push back against the authoritarian takeover of America, there is no need to follow. #Alaska

#Alaska: Putin wants you to elect Ohio Dan and Nick III. That should tell you everything you need to know!

Hello Alaska! For me the low point in Ohio Dan’s career is when he sent out a letter excusing Trump‘s felonies by blaming the NY legal system. Convicts seeking community placement don’t pass step #3 of their MRT class when they utilize that excuse. And the judging panel is other convicts.

In the meantime, Alaska just gave all your data away:

Nothing like trying to intimidate people when they are doing something that is totally right and within the law.

I’m old enough to remember when the head of antifa was Dwight D. Eisenhower

I noticed a sign on the exit door of the truckstop that said they now deliver via DoorDash. Quiet evening at home, none of us feels like cooking: What should we have delivered Thai, Chinese, Mexican? Well, there’s this wiener that’s been spinning around on those little rollers…

I am going to hurry up and mail my absentee ballot in before Trump declares that they all need to be postmarked in Guam.

I get texts on my dashboard screen and it asks me if I want to answer and then writes down things that are probably illegal in 14 southern states.

When I began fishing on the Kusko in the early ‘80s, for every one spawning salmon, six would return. The return rate is now less than one for every spawner. We can’t afford to wait any longer to act. That’s why I’m fighting to ban factory trawling.

Last time he got caught copying my answers. This time he’s complaining because I came ready. It’s called being prepared, Dan.

Yikes. An embarrassing moment for Sen. Dan Sullivan. Sullivan falsely accuses Mary Peltola of getting debate questions beforehand because she is doing a better job than him. Peltola then drops the hammer: “I’m prepared!”

Dan Sullivan named his bill the "Alaska Opportunity Act." The only opportunity it gives Alaskans is the chance to lose their healthcare.

This is it isn’t it? War grifting and big oil profiteering while Alaskans and Americans struggle. “We” are not making a fortune. Are you making a fortune? I’m not. I’m struggling to pay for everything.

The IRS has missed two reports-July and Sept, that have never been missed. These tell us what people made in 2025, what tax breaks they used and how much money was brought in. Bessent is hiding the numbers.

If you want to see who Dan Sullivan is really fighting for, follow the money and take a look at who’s bankrolling his campaign. The Lower 48 factory trawling fleet. The Epstein Class. And now, scammers who make money by defrauding our veterans. americanjournalnews.com/dan-sullivan...

Senator Dan Sullivan recently sent an email to his donor list “personally” asking for small-donor donations of $3, $5, or $10 with the disclosure that funds will go to, among other things, “pay for gas as we visit isolated rural areas of Alaska.” What an embarrassment #akelect

Senate Democrats@dscc.bsky.social

Republican Senate candidates have repeatedly voted to continue the price-spiking Iran War and drive up fuel costs. Meanwhile, they’re sending out fundraising emails begging their own constituents to pay for their gas. meidasnews.com/news/gop-sen...

Overheard on the #3 bus: I like a nice strong coffee at 3 AM when I don’t have to be anywhere in a hurry. That way, I can be wide awake and fully appreciate being able to sleep in.

Last time I checked, the UFC didn’t  operate with “minimum force necessary to achieve compliance.”

I ate at a place called Mom‘s Café and she made me finish my vegetables before I could have pie.

#alaska Nick III and Ohio Dan are enabling Trump to do Putin’s dirty work. If you vote for them, you will never be able to tell your story to your grandchildren.

Carol@mdgbrkr.bsky.social

Ask yourself... Why have all Trump's actions and executive orders specifically destroyed every institution, freedom, right, structure, national parks, and environment? He is doing Putin's work from within.

The Trump regime has achieved Superallium. (Literally beyond the onion) and Hyperallia Satirica: The theoretical point where reality becomes more absurd than satire. Thus, Lex Caepae, The "Onion Law" has now been broken.

#alaska Think of what Ohio Dan and Nick III have done before you cast your ballot. The Dems may not be your cup of tea but they are not Kool-Aid.

I’m learning Colon. At my last VA physical the provider asked me about my diet and I outlined mostly Mediterranean, brussel sprouts etc. and the provider said “your colon will thank you” and I said: “so that’s what it’s been trying to tell me. I need a colon -English/ English-colon dictionary.”
