Memorial Day. We pause to reflect on what war really costs.

What IL Rep Underwood said. Everywhere, all the time.

More from Wasilla, AK. No Kings!

A fast peek at No Kings 3 in Wasilla, AK. Prelim estimate of 600.

Wasilla, AK now.

WOW, LFG!!! Mar a Lago just turned BLUE! First-time FL Dem candidates flipped 2 of the 3 special elections seats today (1 state senate and 2 house seats), including H87 where MAL is: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/flor... www.wflx.com/2026/03/24/f...

The irony of saying you’re attacking a nation because they killed protesters.

“Washington made a choice. A choice to let the laws turn to rust.” Here’s former Assistant AG for the U.S. Antitrust Division Jonathan Kanter on how Trump’s admin is failing to enforce the antitrust laws on the books. And how we can actually lower costs for Americans.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

Joyously confirming other sources with GREAT news to start our week: Mary is running v Sullivan for the 2026 US Senate seat. alaskapublic.org/news/politic...

Disappointed that a long scroll of BSky about Dick Tater’s illegal Venezuelan op found only one mention — a quote of Pierre Poilievre, amazingly enough — in support of Edmundo González, the actual winner of the Jul 2024 Venezuelan election. 1/3

Allow this to serve as my periodic reminder to everyone that Congress has the power to stop this but they don’t want to because THIS has been the plan all along.

Ok, enough with the windstorms already!

Brief but excellent summary in this APM article. TENS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS to build a natural gas pipeline from the North Slope to Cook Inlet. How much renewable energy production and storage infrastructure could be built instead for those billions? alaskapublic.org/news/2025-12...

Thanksgiving-Cyber Monday, our wallets are ignoring Target, Home Depot, & Amazon. We’re tired of corporations enabling this administration ditching DEI, allowing ICE to terrorize our communities, & chase tax breaks. Join us! #WeAintBuyingIt 🚫

REMINDER: A socialist act by a New Yorker was a major reason why polio was eliminated in the US.

Good news for #Alaska www.alaskasnewssource.com/2025/10/20/a...

Thinking of this tonight. Worth watching to the end.

“The chat offers an unfiltered look at how a new generation of GOP activists talk when they think no one is listening.” And this should surprise anyone how? This is who they’ve always been, going to church, acting like “nice people” all the while saying stuff like this on the DL.

No Kings II, Wasilla, Newcomb Park, October 18, 12pm. See you there. A core principle behind all MSUP events is a commitment to nonviolent action. Weapons of any kind, including those legally permitted, should not be brought to events. www.mobilize.us/mat-suunited... #NoKings

Every. Single. Word. of Edward Murrow’s statement re: McCarthyism describes tRumpism to a, um, “t.” The technologies we use advance rapidly; social justice, not so much. Thank you @rbreich.bsky.social for sharing that clip!

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.

Republicans have shut down the government to take healthcare away from millions of Americans and give Trump a blank check for his illegal power grab.

No Kings II Rally ❌👑 📅 Sat, Oct 18 • 12 PM 📍 Newcomb Park, Wasilla You can’t afford to miss this one—join your neighbors for democracy, not kings. 👉 RSVP: mobilize.us/mat-suunitedforprogress/event/841609/ #NoKings

I just watched the 2 part Ken Burns PBS program on Thomas Jefferson. The straight lines from then to TODAY were plain as day. Jefferson/Adams frenemies re federalism/dem republic, dirty journos, rogue SC, racism, int’l trade. Despite being “old” — released 1997 — IMO entirely worth your time.

All together now, join the thousands who have already cancelled those Disney streaming subscriptions and especially $$$ vaca/cruises. Make it hurt. I’d be ok w reinstatement w apology…and let’s throw in personal donations from CEOs of Disney, Sinclair and Nexstar to the charity of Jimmy’s choice?

Check out this film screening and discussion, focused on the youngest little residents of Mat-Su. We believe in accessible health care, early education and helping people succeed! www.eventbrite.com/e/ilp-film-s...

Kirk’s own epitaph: “It’s worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment.” Amend the constitution where it falls short. Every other modern democracy has hunters, sport shooters, collectors…yet tiny fractions of US gun violence.

If you haven’t yet listened to this weekend’s full @podsaveamerica.crooked.com podcast with @hcrichardson.bsky.social you’ll do yourself a great favor to give it your full attention for all 76 mins. It is like a month’s worth of Letters from an American all in one. Thank you every day, HCR!

Heads up @bsky.app there's a phishing message appearing in chat that impersonates a user. For All Y'all... if you get this, just click on the ellipsis (...) next to the message and choose "Report" from the dropdown.

A family member got an unexpected DM from someone they follow (see cropped pic). After looking it up, “gotothebadge” is apparently one of many tools to compromise accounts, so… DON’T CLICK ON THE LINKS for stuff like this.

Today, Sat Aug 16 at NOON. Please join us in Wasilla, Newcomb Park (at the West end of Wasilla Lake, intersection of Crusey and the Parks Hwy.

One of two bald eagle chicks from a nest near our house has recently fledged…still seems a little tentative!
