Lisa will just go rogue on the GOP again. They don't scare her one little bit. I'm not a Republican, wouldn't vote Republican under any circumstances, but sometimes I really like what she does (not as frequently as I would like). I wish we could get this state to turn blue, and especially get rid of that asshole...those assholes...Dan Sullivan and Don Young. A girl can dream, can't she?

I had no side effects from either shot other than a sore muscle. (Gee, I hope the thing worked...🤔)

My dream would be that she commits seppuku and changes party! I'm a Jay Hammond republican which means I'm of no affiliation! Ohio Dan is the guy we need to get rid of.

"An evil weapon wielded by the Woke Left to turn us into a hellhole of taco trucks." True story: my whole neighborhood burned down in Tubbs Fire. Last House Standing here at Barkfield. Point being: so much reconstruction is going on. Now there is a taco truck on my corner every day! Thanks, Hillary. I recommend the chile verde.

Ta, Liz. I have a lot of Alaskan friends. They're not half bad.

End of the road destinations. Florida's got its own crank magnet.

So...to those of us who lived through the actual Cold War, don’t you find it ironic when a GOP group calls themselves a Central Committee? “Holy throwback Thursday Batman!”

those casting the 17 votes against censuring the 17 censured for not censuring the senator were then censured 53-17.

Alaska was a lot more blue in the 60’s. Keep dreaming!

He’d never go to Juneau anyway because it’s largely blue. MatSu,Kenai and Fairbanks only.

Right. My bad. She won on as a write in, but still as a Republican. I thought she became an Independent for her write-in candidacy, but I was wrong. Thanks.

Going to Extremes by Joe McGinniss is a great read about the pipeline boom days that changed Alaska so much. And I loved that he moved into the house next door to La Sara in Wasilla to research his book on her.
