I honestly don’t know much about El-Sayed, but this is a perfect answer from him. It’s also hilarious that Tommy used to work for Josh Hawley and was paid 250k for influencer marketing AGAINST El-Sayed. They might want to get a refund. What a spectacular backfire. The walk of shame at the end. 🤣

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

This is a fascinating piece on the by Witek. The impact on fisheries management (and maybe even game) could be profound and to the good.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

"Ultimately what we need is for the Forest Service to manage the Tongass so that it maximizes wild fish production and puts fish first." By Linda Behnken, who fishes commercially in Alaska and serves on the Network's Policy Council: www.juneauempire.com/2026/03/25/o...

juneauempire.comOPINION: A reminder about the Tongass National Forest - Juneau EmpireYou cannot talk about Southeast Alaska’s seafood industry without also talking about the Tongass National Forest. The productivity of our region’s sustainable fisheries is heavily dependent on the health of Southeast’s forests and watersheds – the two are inseparable. That’s why it’s alarming to see no mention of Southeast’s commercial fisheries in the U.S. Forest Service’s Notice of Intent to revise its management plan for the Tongass National Forest. Given the Trump Administration’s Executive Order 14276 to restore America’s seafood competitiveness, the Forest Service should align its management of the Tongass with the Administration’s goal to promote our domestic fisheries, including an America First Seafood Strategy.
