U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola, a Democrat, and her Republican challenger Nick Begich appeared at a candidate forum hosted by the Alaska Oil and Gas Association during their annual conference on Wednesday, Aug. 28, 2024.
HIGHLIGHTS I put together from Dan Fagan’s post-election show, 8/21/24 HERE.
Dan says: Mike Porcaro is being paid by Nancy Dahlstrom as a consultant, so he’s a compromised Anchorage radio personality.
[My thoughts on Porcaro. Porcaro’s ad agency apparently also made money from Lisa Murkowsky’s campaign. He defended Murkowsky on his show. He also strongly pushed ranked choice voting, so used his large radio platform to deceive a lot of Alaskans, so he’s responsible for it passing (only passed by 1%) and Murkowski staying in, and I’ve heard his ad agency was making money to push ranked choice.
Porcaro’s cohost, Crash spoke of how wonderful marijuana is for himself and others for at least 10 minutes lately, with Porcaro’s approval; though, marijuana dulls people’s consciences so they don’t feel guilt and shame for what they’ve done, so many are blissfully floating along instead of being responsible citizens, living lives with clear consciences.
Porcaro pushed the jab hard with Dr. Keisling, and both refused to tell the truth about high enough vitamin D levels, which would have solved Covid for Alaska.]
Dan spoke of the GLORY politicians get from having so much power. Nancy needs to have the courage to put her personal ambitions aside and do what’s right for the country.
There are reports in Alaska newspapers of ancient trees revealed from beneath the glaciers as they recede. A range of ages are revealed by carbon dating that is 1,000 to 2,500 years or more. From this I know that it has been warmer in Alaska than it is now, and that warm could not have been the result of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere.
CORRECTION: Flight time from Seattle to Anchorage is about 3 hours 30 minutes.
Roger Holmberg Sr. previously served as a pastor at Grace Baptist Temple in Anchorage, according to his wife.

The assault on parental rights continues, this time from Sen. Cathy Giessel, a registered Republican and someone who just a few years ago presented herself as something of a conservative.
That presentation should most certainly no longer fool anyone as the Anchorage senator’s journey to the dark side is now complete; her latest tactic puts on full display her alignment with those who feel parents are secondary to public school officials.
TRUTH MATTERS!
Testified before Alaska State legislature today and @rep_gray (D) asks there's any evidence men actually possess physical advantages over women in athletics….
It doesn't take a biologist to answer that. Listen to my response in clip below 👇🏼 https://t.co/CIlRP1U8zM

This bothered me enough to write a post on.
Giessel, who was once thought to be a conservative, has embraced most, if not all, of the Democrats’ platform, including the return to the pension plan, as desired by union officials who have great influence over her.
The nation’s foremost expert on vote integrity discusses with Joe Miller why American voting cannot be trusted, why Alaska’s voting system is one of the worst, and how you can help fix the problem.
Anchorage Mayor Dave Bronson defeated RADICAL leftist Forest Dunbar in 2021 by only 1.3%. Bronson was able to ride on his no-lockdown and no-mask-mandate position during Covid. [Afterward, Anchorage Assembly masked citizens again anyway, taking away mayoral powers that RADICAL leftist Mayor Quinn-Davidson had, and also Mayor Berkowitz.]
All of what’s shown below has happened since, which will be weaponized against Dave in ad after ad.
On top of that, the liberal press has continually blamed Dave only for the homeless problem and deaths, and many residents are upset with Dave’s headship of the snow removal street issues.
Nonetheless, Dave is still running, which seems to me will guarantee a leftist winning in 2024. Dave needs to do the right thing, please.
Key articles below tell the Amy/Dave story.
THE MAIN PROBLEM & MAIN SOLUTION
NOTE: both Amy and Dave are openly Baptists. The Apostle Paul says “Christians” are not supposed to sue Christians in secular courts (1 Cor. 6:1-8). The main problem in America is a lack of REAL Christianity. The main solution is REAL Christianity, which can start in Anchorage — Jesus’ prayer fulfilled in John 17 and His clearly stated goal in Ephesians 4:11-16!

“As Helander passed a section of the lagoon between the small island and the shoreline along West 15th Avenue, the ice gave way, immediately submerging him. An Anchorage Daily News journalist, who was at the lagoon for another reason, witnessed the mishap.
The Anchorage Police Department is investigating the placement of razor blades this month at Schroeder Park in Eagle River after learning of a 3-year-old’s close call on playground equipment.
The company will offer $20 an hour starting pay plus benefits. But there are two job openings for every job hunter in Alaska, a new report found.
The company said it will offer a starting wage of $20 an hour, and eligible workers will get health care, vision, and dental insurance, a 401(k) retirement-savings opportunity with a match from the company, and up to 20 weeks paid parental leave with six weeks for supporting parents.
Comment by Trig:
“Drug dealers have been using this method for years. Doctors as well, in regards to opiates for that matter. Enticement has always been a great tool to sell a product to people who would be less interested in a product. And a product that gives you relief from reality has increased in popularity of late. Soon reality becomes a blur and less desirable. As much as a person thinks that they can solve all problems under the influence, mean old reality creeps in and is not desirable any longer. An occasional trip to happy land can be enjoyable but people who wish to stay there soon become nonproductive. Encouragement of such products by making them easier to obtain is equal to a ship’s captain unlocking the rum stores and expecting his crew to be able to do their jobs. What the government’s role in all of this seems to only be in collecting revenue from an otherwise untaxed source. It certainly isn’t that they are interested in our well being or public safety.

The Mulchatna herd was once among the largest in Alaska, with a historic range spanning from Dillingham to Bethel to Lake Iliamna. Today, the herd has dwindled to roughly 12,000; the Department of Fish and Game estimates a healthy population would range from 30,000 to 80,000 caribou.
Censored Jimmy Dore, a well-known comedian, progressive-leftist, political commentator calls out Building 7 issue on his popular podcast.
“People are now finally being allowed to question the narrative… the official narrative of 9/11. The University of Anchorage [Alaska]… their engineering department already proved Building 7 was brought down on purpose. I saw a meme the other day… it had the Twin Towers… it said ‘never forget,’ and then right next to it, it had Building 7. It said ‘forget.”
“So, they took down Building 7 and I said this since… I don’t know… 2008 when we started our comedy podcast with Todd Glass. It’s obvious! It’s obvious they did that. Again, who are you going to believe– the government or your lying eyes? I’m going to believe my lying eyes, and I’m going to believe the University of Anchorage [Alaska].”

If you’ve been bemoaning what has felt like a cold and wet summer, you are not alone.
“Anywhere you go in this state, it’s like every single person is complaining,”…
In the 263 days between Jan. 1 and Sept. 20, Anchorage had 109 days with at least 0.01 inches of precipitation. The second-highest year was 1965, which had 99. It has been a soggy year so far. …
On that list: It was “probably the cloudiest summer on record for Southcentral Alaska” — meaning the region lost out on the solar energy it typically gets.
In 92 days of summer between June and August, Anchorage had some amount of rain during 48 days. Only 2010 had more summer days with measurable precipitation. …
On top of that, the highest temperature recorded this summer was 73 degrees, well below the average high of 78. And Anchorage had only 10 days with temperatures at or above 70 degrees. On average, the city gets 18.

In December 1978, Ted Stevens and his wife Ann Stevens were on a small chartered plane that crashed while attempting to land. Ted Stevens survived — but his wife Ann, and four other people, were killed. Ted Stevens suffered head, neck and arm injuries, but was conscious when two of his daughters visited him in the hospital.
As The New Republic noted in 2007, Stevens long blamed the accident on his then co-Senator, Democrat Mike Gravel:
