Good to know!! I'm not surprised that at least one of them isn't an Alaskan. Share this far and wide-- our community members deserve to know. #Fairbanks #Alaska
Shared from an organizer of No Kings in Fairbanks, Alaska. The two Nazis who showed up were Vincent Lawton and Anakin Murphy, Private First Class at Ft. Wainwright. #Alaska #NoKings #AkLeg #AlaskaSky #FuckNazis

I really hope this lights a 🔥 under the ass of non-voters, irregular voters, on-the-fence voters, people who thought Dan S Sullivan was an “old school” Republican v. 1 who approves of stealing elections, etc. For that to happen, AK, it has to be the kind of news that gets EVERYWHERE, word of mouth.
NOT A DRILL Trump just ordered the DOJ to challenge the Alaska Senate election results before a single vote is counted. Here’s the shady as hell part. Only if the Dem wins. Mary Peltola is challenging Republican incumbent Dan Sullivan & Alaska could determine which party controls the Senate.
I disagree. With enough support, items like making the tax structure in the US more fair and making Social Security solvent again can absolutely be accomplished. Shame on ADN for this pro-Sullivan piece.
If Democrat Mary Peltola defeats GOP U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan, she wants to stop the Iran war to help lower prices, and eliminate income taxes for many Alaskans. Elements of her economic plan will be challenging to accomplish, if they can be done at all. www.adn.com/politics/202...

I spent 5 months investigating bogus reckless driving charges the Seattle Police Department hit me with on Mayday 2026 I'm finally ready to deconstruct the retaliatory policing, and prove how many at the city knew there was no crime to charge me with in the first place youtu.be/7e8I4NbMa2A

DOJ is suing to decertify Alaska’s Senate race—but only if Republicans lose. Trump personally ordered the lawsuit, he announced Friday.

This sounds like the premise for the latest hot new science fiction horror movie. Terrible idea to do this in real life, though.

In less than 2 years America deployed secret police, concentration camps, mass surveillance for local PD's via camera/drone/data brokers, and criminalization of extremely foundational concepts like creating zines We can't afford 2 more years of corruption and liberal fecklessness, we need to fight
In Paris, the uprising continues. On October 18, masses of people once again took to the streets. Crowds gathered at Place de la République and in the surrounding streets, erecting barricades as police deployed large amounts of tear gas. 🧵

Co-signed! That’s what libraries are for, and they do pay us! Never apologize!
Someone said to me, "I'm sorry but I got your book from a library." Nobody should ever apologise for that. You read my book! That's brilliant! I grew up hanging out in libraries and the idea of a world without them fills me with dread. Without libraries, authors, like readers, will only suffer.

Face reveal on one of the Nazis who showed up to the #Fairbanks #Alaska #NoKings protest! Hell yeah!
These people dressed as chickens with kazoos were the perfect way to chase off nazis without giving them the scary confrontation they were trying to create and film. No notes, thank you chicken kazoo crew 🖤 #NoKings #FuckNazis #Alaska

This series of books is wonderful. Each book is a 'stand alone', but they are all connected to a wonderfully magical town inhabited by citizen with special magical gifts. There's mystery, drama, and lots of sizzling romance. I recommend starting with one novel and reading every book in this series!

In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org
"Are you sure?" "Yes. You miscarried. I know this is sad & #unexpected–" Moira feigned grief until she was outside. The sun broke through the clouds, bathing the world in golden light like warm #syrup, and she laughed in relief. She felt like a condemned man who'd just walked free. #vss365 #vssdaily

Wow, apparently we're *that* kind of country now. (Trump and members of his administration have been saying they want to deport their opponents for a while now. This attack on Ilhan Omar should come as absolutely no surprise to anyone.)
The goal, per Wall Street Journal reporting, is to construct a case to strip the Minnesota congresswoman of her American citizenship and deport her from the US.

Yo does the @mayor.seattle.gov not have time to stop by and maybe say something positive about a local business that’s being targeted by a buncha racist scammers working for the Feds? Does this business not matter becuase it’s not downtown? Do you not care about racism in your community? 🦗🦗🦗
Shirley & Kruze and other professional righty liars don't care how many lives they destroy—unless they are non-white lives, in which case it's as many as possible. The only SNAP fraud attempted here was by Shirley. And it failed. Can't wait for my local Lam's to open in Rainier Valley.
Wow, this sounds REALLY familiar for some reason. (The video premise: Could Germany have won WWII? Well, no. For a number of reasons.) I also hope his conclusion holds true today. www.youtube.com/shorts/Xmx3O...

I have never seen an elected official as confidently incorrect as this guy. I hope his constituents send his smarmy ass packing, since he's more interested in silencing a reporter who didn't have his *personal approval* to record than in answering valid questions!
Republican Rep. Andy Harris incorrectly told a reporter they were breaking the law as the reporter and others recorded an exchange with him last night. Harris had just wrapped up a debate with Democratic challenger Dan Schwartz.
There's more! This guy just fundamentally can't handle criticism 🤣 bsky.app/profile/ab21...
WATCH: Andy Harris has a crash out after his constituents laugh at him for trying to blame higher gas prices on... Democrats. "You are rude!" #MD01
