Look, I'm in a state where there are two Fords on the Dem side running for gov. Forget that, though.
The most amazing part of the NYT Alaska story is not only did these clumsy Dems lie about their involvement, but the key player tried to retract her admission of guilt!
But!
1/2
Trump: "It has just been determined that the Democrats in Alaska illegally searched for, and recruited, a man named Dan Sullivan to run against our distinguished Republican Senator, Dan Sullivan, in order to defraud, confuse, and obfuscate the Election, thereby taking votes away from the REAL Senator, Dan Sullivan. The New York Times reports that, 'Democrats have insisted they have nothing to do with the other Dan Sullivan on Alaska’s Senate ballot. But aides with the Mary Peltola campaign and DSCC were part of a monthslong secret plan to recruit him to run — as well as other candidates.' The Democrats’ false statements were made under oath in Federal Court. Therefore, they perjured themselves, and should be liable for very serious consequences. Mary Peltola should suffer the Legal and Political consequences for what she has done, A FRAUD ON THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, and Dan Sullivan should be allowed to run without either Mary Peltola or FAKE Dan Sullivan on the Ballot. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

BREAKING: Sen @lisamurkowski just provided the Landmine with this powerful statement following the @nytimes scathing article on @MaryPeltola’s involvement in the Decoy Dan Sullivan scheme:
“While some may try to write this off as just how politics works now, ballot-stacking should have no place in our electoral process. Run and win on your merits: your views, your policy ideas, and your accomplishments. By contrast, recruiting candidates to manipulate the field and influence voting outcomes is simply wrong. Alaskans deserve the honest truth from Mary and her campaign—what has been revealed is a pattern of lies and coverups and a culture of deception that belongs nowhere in our elections or among our elected officials.”

The coverup is always worse than the crime. They shoulda owned up to it.
Rs, Ds and superPacs spent millions to promote minor candidates this year. It’s a thing. nytimes.com/2026/10/28/us/po… via @NYTimes

Fantastic reporting by @nytimes @Kellen_Browning on Alaska Senate race.
Extraordinarily great writing too.
Will impact the race, I believe.
A lot of people seem to have reacted to being exposed by lying.
The reckoning will be ugly for @MaryPeltola

Dude sued to be listed as a Republican to challenge incumbent Republican @SenDanSullivan. But he checked Undeclared when he absentee voted in the primary. This whole thing is such a clown show.

Our president Devin Harman chatted with @politico about where the @WhiteHouse stands on permitting reform. As Devin explained to @bstorrow, the administration appears ready “to go to bat for it.” Read Devin’s full remarks in the Surge newsletter below. ⬇️

So this is wild. Daniel J. Sullivan (Decoy Dan) has a son Noah. Noah works for Rep. Marie Gluesenkamp Perez, the co-chair of the Blue Dog Democrats.
When @MaryPeltola was in Congress, she was a co-chair of the Blue Dog Democrats along with… Gluesenkamp Perez!
The odds of Decoy Dan filing to run against @SenDanSullivan and Decoy Dan’s son workin for Gluesenkamp Perez being a coincidence are near zero.

If your argument is: we should consume less gas, I do have respect for it. If instead it is: I rather buy gas overseas I know we need so I can virtue signal we're reducing local output, I have no respect for it.

I was delighted to discover a recent working paper on the end of duopoly electric competition in Lubbock in the process of pulling together this thread. The article link is in a comment. Lubbock's curious electric history warrants more attention.
@BorensteinS gives us the "econ 101" treatment of natural monopoly in a post on electric prices. My photo from Lubbock Texas offers evidence that there is more to the story. Lubbock had 93 years of duopoly competition between electric utilities, both of which wired the town.

Congress has a lame-duck session. The President has an agenda: supplemental, reconciliation, Ballroom, etc… I think the agenda is dead. Many of us won’t fund these things knowing he is propping up a dictator’s invasion and throwing an ally under the bus.
Tillis. Not holding back. Also saw @JohnCornyn just tweet “Lindsey would be appalled.” But key question…what can/is the senate going to do about it?
