I’ve been thinking exactly that, just like Vietnam only sooner.

We have a bipartisan majority in the legislature. This is why Republican bigwigs want to eliminate RCV.

Statewide races in Alaska have turned decidedly more purple since ranked choice voting. Last election the more moderate candidate won almost all the seats even when only Republicans ran in a particular race. ⬇️

Gas is up, retirement account is down.

Haha, Kristi’s out.

No, I’ve been in Alaska since 1975.

Go get β€˜em. I’m annoyed that they did this. Have they not read the Alaska Constitution?

Fuck this asshole. Some
of us remember Vietnam.

Don’t threaten - do.

I loved that show so much, and I was really pissed off when they canceled it. In my early 20s, I was prime demographic.

Lisa is very concerned about rural voters in Alaska who are not connected to the road system and would have extreme difficulty providing papers. It seems to me the SAVE Act would be just as damaging to the Republicans as the Democrats.

I read that the star is actually the rating.

More insane gas and electric bills.

That’s a baby snow pile. The ones in Anchorage have front-loaders pushing the snow around. We saw a snow pile yesterday where the equipment looked like Tonka toys.

This American will, for sure.

It seems like it will be rather difficult to track a couple hundred million people.

Have you made β€œcowboy candy”? It’s amazing.

Unless THEY opt out. I hate autocorrect.

In Alaska people are automatically registered when they apply for a a permanent fund dividend unless Jay opt out. There is a citizenship question on the application form. Lying is perjury.

I got home from LA early yesterday morning. Good unintentional planning on my part…

Nicolle Wallace had a good segment yesterday talking about Noem
and Lewandowski and how ridiculous they are.

It’s hard to tell if that’s a poor choice of words or if she means that literally. Probably the latter.

Just a suggestion - you can make up the difference by using grated carrots, so you have zucchini carrot bread. But the chocolate chips work, too.

Trump didn’t write that. Too many big words. Miller or Cheung.

I just finished reading Virginia’s book and she did say that at one point, but that was before her injuries and illnesses toward the end of her life. She did admit to trying to commit suicide twice with pill overdoses when everything became so overwhelming.

Can’t blame him for making that clear.
