BREAKING: Abortion will remain legal in Wyoming after the state Supreme Court struck down laws, including the first U.S. ban on pill abortions.

The company that runs the park provided each resident with cases of bottled water, two day passes to Juneau pools for showers, and portable toilets in the park. But resident Tammy Jablonski said that the cases of water are long gone, the local pools have been closed often, and the toilets froze.

Heather Bryant, who co-owns the Pelican General Store, said the deliveries — including milk and eggs, produce and mail — will help the community make it by for the time being.

Join @alaskascott.bsky.social and I this Thursday at Anchorage Coffee Roasting (in Fairbanks) for an Education Listening Session. 1/8 from 4 to 5:30 pm.

Today is #RefuseSingleUseDay. But let’s be clear: the responsibility to "refuse" shouldn't rest on individuals at the checkout counter—it must start in corporate boardrooms and in policy forums. We cannot recycle our way out of a crisis created by overproduction.

Norway's stunning EV-olution hit 96% of new cars in 2025 & attained nation's goal of phasing out gas-powered vehicle sales! Norway now looks to integrate EV energy into national grid: "The market has essentially gone straight from gas and diesel to full EVs." https://bit.ly/3N02r75

Today, ISER's Dayna DeFeo presented to leaders and lawmakers to show how Alaska's education spending stacks up against other states. The presentation helps incoming legislators understand how Alaska's education spending has changed over time compared to inflation and the national average.

Gunther Fehlinger, chairman of the Austria Committee for NATO Enlargement, to United States: "If you take it, we will take every single base of the US from Aviano to Ramstein, from Romania to all the other military bases, will be confiscated and you will lost it." "If you go extreme, we go extreme"

I cannot even begin to tell you how many ways the Pro-Life group is fucked up. They have a new direction and a huckleberry to use. They have petitioned the FDA to further regulate the use of/ remove stem cells from labs across the US. Read the petition here: www.regulations.gov/document/FDA...

If Dems talked like this regularly, we wouldn't have to focus on "how to win close elections in difficult environments." We would have a lot fewer close elections, and a lot fewer difficult environments.

The Supreme Court could issue its ruling in the major Voting Rights Act case as soon as Friday. If the court’s Republicans gut the VRA this month, they could give Republicans in several Southern states enough time to pass new congressional gerrymanders this year targeting Black and Latino voters

Trump looks at Putin's Russia -- a failed and decaying state with a ruined economy engaged in perpetual wars of conquest that benefit only a dictator and his cronies -- and asks: How can I make the United States like that?

I've watched thousands of videos from the Jan. 6 riot as part of NPR's reporting and archive project on that day. Here are some of the lesser known videos that have really stuck with me. 🧵

This is humiliatingly weak and pathetic. The dominant national ethos has become one of weak insecurity. It’s like if Frank Burns was a white nationalist.

"Putin has been attempting to influence Donald Trump to seize both Venezuela and Greenland since at least 2017. The effort, rooted in Putin's ambitions in Ukraine, hinged on American embrace of the Monroe Doctrine, the 1823 policy ... that focused American influence within the Western Hemisphere."

On January 6 a mob of violent MAGA ignoramuses stormed the Capitol and spread shit all over its halls They’re still at it

Never forget.

Looks like winter again around here.

Happy Holidays!

Nearly 2 metres of snow fell last week in Haines, the most in one week since records began in 2000. via @CBCNews www.rcinet.ca/eye-on-the-a...

A message from my wife and me in honor of the courageous, patriotic police who defended our country and Vice President Pence on J6, 5 years ago. Never forget. SHAME on every Republican. Trump belongs in prison.

Thank you, Fairbanks! What an incredible kickoff to our 2026 campaign! I'm very proud to announce Scott Kawasaki and Elvi Gray-Jackson as campaign co-chairs. They are both close friends and leaders who know exactly who I am and what I stand for. #TomBegichForAlaska #AlaskaSky 1/2

Is Donald Trump featured in the part of the Epstein Files that the DOJ hasn't released yet? A. Yes B: No C: What do you think, Einstein?

We're in a fiscal crisis and Dunleavy keeps setting money on fire to lose court cases. The legislsture should tap the statehood defense fund to pay for this. #akleg

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force? MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO T: So force is on the table? M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

#akleg I wasn't certain so I reached out to Lynne Curry and she verified that this letter came from someone who worked for a state agency in Alaska. I'd like legislators to take this seriously if the administration doesn't.

We must act fast to ensure Trump doesn’t run Venezuela. Join our emergency organizing call with @moveon.org, @workingfamilies.org, @publiccitizen.bsky.social, @winwithoutwar.bsky.social, and more special guests to discuss the immediate actions you can take to stop more endless war.

Atlantic: Rotavirus Could Come Roaring Back—Very Soon By Katherine J. Wu @theatlantic.com bit.ly/3YWlGAS

New — I wrote about how corporate media is immediately siding with power in the wake of Trump attacking Venezuela and capturing Maduro, and how journalists need to treat the administration as a hostile entity that’s openly lying to them.

Stephen Miller is Trump’s most important and influential aide because he channels and shares the president’s worldview. His cold-blooded assessment that might makes right is the one immutable law of history and is now the guiding concept behind US foreign policy…

The Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation has authorized the city to dump relatively clean snow into Gastineau Channel as operators run out of space on land.

Four generations of my family have served our country. Service is in my blood. The President wouldn’t know anything about that.

It’s official: RFK Jr has officially reduced recommended childhood vaccines from 17 to 11, removing universal vaccine recommendations for RSV, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, dengue and two types of bacterial meningitis. This reckless contravention of science is going to kill people.

The destruction doesn't make for a photo-op like tearing down the East Wing of the White House or bulldozing the Rose Garden, but it's every bit as bad. Generations of American children learned to spell and count, learned the Preamble to the Constitution, from watching shows produced by the CPB.

How could the United States save ~$184 billion per year on outpatient prescription medications? Use international reference pricing @pnas.org www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

The one tool we had to fight this (mRNA vaccines) were booted this year by fucking Lowly’s human car. The turn around to get a vaxx that would cover this new variant would have been ready for the public by now. The new variant was detected months ago.

The US used to be really dirty – environmental cleanup laws have made a huge difference

Trump says the U.S. government may reimburse oil companies for rebuilding Venezuela's infrastructure Alaska knows how this works. You get 💩 government, no basic services like healthcare, but big oil keeps getting fatter profiting off taxpayers. Oil subsidies are welfare for the rich.

I'm in Fairbanks right now! Join me for our 2026 campaign kick-off. Tonight 6 PM at the Noel Wien Library.

I am grateful to have the support of Senator Bill Wielechowski. Bill understands that to truly support our students, we must invest in our educators. With over a decade of experience in the classroom, I share that commitment and I am ready to partner with leaders like Bill to get it done. 💪 #ancgov

Murkowski is among a handful of Republicans in Congress to raise questions or doubts about the operation. (From @alaskapublic.org)

We don't yet know what seat failed school board candidate and QAnon conspiracy theorist Alexander Rosales is going to run for, but we do know who he is running AGAINST: students, teachers, and families. Insane. I bet the AK GOP cuts him a check.

Positively balmy!! The lowest I got at the house was -42.9F, on Sunday morning 1/4/26. Glad it’s warmed up—it’s almost 30 degrees warmer!

On the theme of international press coverage of US public health, here’s Canada’s take. They’re not wrong. If disinformation spreads like a virus, Canada may want to mask up. Or at least wash its hands frequently. Too bad there’s not a vaccine to protect against malicious policies…

The Trump administration is slashing routine vaccine recommendations during childhood from 17 to 11 jabs – the biggest change to vaccines yet under the purview of longtime anti-vaccine activist Robert F Kennedy Jr. My latest (currently being updated!) www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
