AS a democrat, we naturally should be able to see how blacks and native american indians are spreading around like cockroaches... so we need to kull the numbers by supporting planned parenthood and aborting those little babies. there are to many of them. as demorats we also make lots of funding for votes when we can keep these kids selling drugs like Flakka to whites and suburbia. They make our money and we then win the votes as democrats because just like a plantation, we own the black votes as democrats. WE can keep them single family homes and encourage divorce and division through their music and through the rap and hip hop scene. its so easy to get these blacks to riot and burn down republican and anything we can point at for them to hate. We also control almost 90 percent of all the news just like the nazi party did. in fact we are even more powerful then the nazis because unlike them we are successful in controlling all of the branches of government and we get other countries involved in liking socialist demcoracy like the nazi party did. WE also use the news as democrats to ensure people teach students to vote blue too.We control alaska now with a native who will do exsactly what Nancy Pelosi wantsw her to do too. everone knows in indian culture that men are chiefs... and rairly does a woman lead... it shows weakness and insecurity when guys are so weak they just sit back and let women do everything. In fact the usa is so easy to use and manipulate now we will use the democrat blacks and natives to ensure victory for the democrat party from now on. WE are superior to everyone and every other country because we choose to be democrats.

That's to suggest some kind of superiority to men in office? I believe in actual equality, take your position in public service based on merit, ability and loyalty
Politicians like Mary Peltola who are willing to engage with respectful bipartisan politics that benefit the people who elected her is a great sign and I hope if elected Alaskans really feel the benefits of that. Love from MI!
I have at times, been frustrated by Murkowski's choices, but I have to give credit where credit is due. She is showing bipartisanship, character, and integrity by supporting Peltola.
@@chezzysquatch it's okay you don't own your cowardice, it's kind of your badge of dishonor. Too wimpy to own anything. Libertarians are more right wing trash that tried to rebrand themselves. Both party of Trump clown parties that enabled andtried to cover up an overthrow of Democracy.
Someone, please, tell me when, how, why 'truth' and 'reality' has/is apparently disappearing from the world that I've lived in for many decades? Mary Peltola, in Alaska, at least offers some hope!
Good luck Mary! I was born in Bristol Bay, live in Anchorage most of my life. Dad was a commercial fishermen. Much respect for you. It's definitely a different place to live for voting. I believe if more people in the villages participated in voting it would help a lot. I haven't been back home in year's, it does take about $1200 to travel in state, if I was to buy a round trip ticket.
And as a former democrat I can see right through their sweet sounding lies. How can you not see through this? Don't you see the tv news stations are bought into killing us with sweet sounding lies? Do you have children or grandchildren?
As a retired salmon biologist I am so happy to hear somebody care! People don't realize how important Pacific salmon are to ecosystems. Alaska may be the only place salmon will be able to survive if climate change makes stream temperatures too high on the west coast. It's tragic what is happening.
I must say she have the right idea. we need more like her countrywide. it's long overdue to stop fighting amongst ourselves and become the country that we should have been a long time ago.
Mary Peltola 💙💙💙 she is genuine, considerate, intelligent and warm. It would b an honor to have her in congress, she's not caught up in drama nor fame. It's funny to hear Palin acting chummy with Mary. Palin is catty, vindictive, the only seed she planted in 2008 was vitriol. Thank god we got someone decent to represent Alaska, Palin is an embarrassment.
Mary Peltola, a native member for elected representative in the house, I pray for your successful election'. Alaskans are great caring people, this I learned when being resident from 1977-88. Alaska needs you in the house, the US needs you in the house to show your caring across the isle nationwide, caring for Alaskan ressources, caring for Native issues. Your charisma and care for people and the earth and water are powerful tools to give a new direction . Thank you
If we as Democrats care about maintaining our rights, and protecting our democracy and our country, we need to show up and shout out with our vote! Let’s do this! Come out, vote, and leave feeling like and knowing your voice was heard. VOTE BLUE!
@@chetsenior7253 Having met Palin more then once, knowing her husband, Tod is awesome and Sara is Fking nuts. Her politics are nutts, intentionally edgy, she says whatever she thinks will get votes, will flip flop for a dime, and is a ding bat. Does that help clear up my personal position on a Palin
She is a quality candidate but a lot of credit should go to the voters in Alaska that approved rank choice voting. It is the best way to move politicians to the center and to reject extremists from both the left and the right.
When I was flying out of Alaska I sat next to a native woman in her early 70’s who was an attorney. She was one of nine children from Unalakleet. Most of her siblings were distinguished professionals with masters or doctorate degrees. Alaska Natives have been achieving amazing lives that turn the tides of fate and future, and, when Mary wins, she will be a great inspiration for all Alaska Natives and future generations.
I wish the best for Alaskans, and I hope that they see Peltola as the only sane answer for their state. She's a native Alaskan with major ambitions for her State, not the national aspirations of her competition.
Its glorious to see the people of Alaska reject Palin…I really hope she wins again and sends Palin packing, ending her political career and we never have to see or hear from her, or about her ever again.
no one wins when everyone suffers just to make a point. how can I help my neighbor when they need help will be a better way to invest our precious time. good job Alaska!
To the editor: you have Mary's name backwards in the title. Also, just because Alaska has a high _proportion_ of conservative voters doesn't mean they're individually ultraconservative, or that they're conservative in the same way as, say, Alabama conservatives or California conservatives or Utah conservatives. Alaska isn't like anywhere else in the US, so it's nice to see that they might elect someone who isn't like other politicians.
Alaska was the best real estate deal ever made, better than the Louisiana purchase or buying Manhattan for a string of beads. Global warming and climate change might push an unexpected boom in population north of 60.
What an anachronism! A politician who wants to represent their constituents and not get caught up in partisan performative politics?! Alaska…dare you be so lucky? Dare you?
Media also has a large part of the blame as they rarely report on politicians who are representing their constituents and not jumping up and down with their hair (and often pants) on fire.
Chris, as you stated its so refreshing to too elected representatives actually focusing on needs and concerns of their electorate whilst combining integrity and a desire to act in good faith with officials from the other side! Your interview with Mary P is heart-warming and gives hope for a better America. But, let's see how long it takes for the Republicans to further erode and destroy generally held American values.
It would be much more beneficial to be giving a lot more air time to Democrats, and significantly decrease the reporting about what the Republicans are doing, which is pretty much all MSNBC has been offering. There doesn't seem to be much learning from recent history.
“Jim and Faye Palin, the father and step-mother of Sarah Palin’s ex-husband Todd”…Just…say…the ex-husband’s family. I don’t think I’m mentally defective, but I had to replay that segment twice to figure out the parties involved. How do you convince mouth-breathers outside Alaska with that unnecessarily detailed genealogy of an Alaskan family 99.9% of them never knew?
*Diesel Shortage Update as Prices Skyrocket Over Fears Supply Could Run Out* Oct 26, 2022 NEWSWEEK *An acute shortage of diesel fuel in the U.S. is threatening to keep inflation and heating bills high in the country through the winter, as prices are expected to continue surging.* New government data released on Wednesday show that diesel supplies are "unacceptably low," as National Economic Council Director Brian Deese told Bloomberg TV on Wednesday. According to the Energy Information Administration, the U.S. has now 25 days left of diesel supply, its lowest level since 2008. Deese said that "all options are on the table" to replenish U.S. supplies, which have been drained by the impact the Russian invasion of Ukraine has had on global energy supplies and imports. Why Is Diesel So Expensive? The price of diesel in the U.S. has been surging "due to inventories at very low levels and limited ability to quickly improve supply," Patrick De Haan, GasBuddy's head of petroleum analysis oil and refined products analyst, told Newsweek. Imports from Russia have been banned following the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, contributing to the current supply crunch in which refineries' seasonal maintenance also played a big part. While supplies of diesel started dwindling in the U.S., demand is currently at its highest point in two years. And as winter approaches, demand for diesel to heat homes is about to rise, likely causing an increase in prices. The immediate consequences of this shortage will be higher prices. "For now," according to De Haan. At the moment, according to AAA data, diesel prices are some 50 percent higher than they were this time of the year in 2021, at $5.324 a gallon. Are We Running Out Of Diesel? "I wouldn't say 'running out,' but with high demand as winter approaches for heating oil-virtually the same as diesel-and with one million barrels less refining capacity than we had back in 2019, we're basically doing more with less, and strong demand has chiseled away at supplies," said De Haan. "That and refinery outages in recent weeks haven't helped, in addition to strong demand from Europe as they attempt to cut off Russian supplies." The U.S. is set to receive at least two ships carrying a total of some 90,000 metric tons of diesel and jet fuel that have been diverted from their original destinations in Europe to the East Coast, as reported by Reuters on October 14. The diesel is arriving from the United Arab Emirates. In response to the diesel shortage, the Biden administration has been considering limiting fuel exports to lower consumer prices. De Haan thinks that there's "not much [Biden] personally can do."
Low ocean productivity is more like human destructive policies. Oceans aren't devouring the fish, foreign ships hit the stocks before they get to rivers and ocean degradation, like wildlife degradation, affects everyone.
She has such a warm, winning spirit. You can feel it in her authentic smile.Even the Northerners on the Canadian side of the North are rooting for Mary!

Oct 26, 2022 NEWSWEEK
*An acute shortage of diesel fuel in the U.S. is threatening to keep inflation and heating bills high in the country through the winter, as prices are expected to continue surging.*
New government data released on Wednesday show that diesel supplies are "unacceptably low," as National Economic Council Director Brian Deese told Bloomberg TV on Wednesday. According to the Energy Information Administration, the U.S. has now 25 days left of diesel supply, its lowest level since 2008.
Deese said that "all options are on the table" to replenish U.S. supplies, which have been drained by the impact the Russian invasion of Ukraine has had on global energy supplies and imports.
Why Is Diesel So Expensive?
The price of diesel in the U.S. has been surging "due to inventories at very low levels and limited ability to quickly improve supply," Patrick De Haan, GasBuddy's head of petroleum analysis oil and refined products analyst, told Newsweek.
Imports from Russia have been banned following the Russian invasion of Ukraine on February 24, contributing to the current supply crunch in which refineries' seasonal maintenance also played a big part.

"I wouldn't say 'running out,' but with high demand as winter approaches for heating oil-virtually the same as diesel-and with one million barrels less refining capacity than we had back in 2019, we're basically doing more with less, and strong demand has chiseled away at supplies," said De Haan.
"That and refinery outages in recent weeks haven't helped, in addition to strong demand from Europe as they attempt to cut off Russian supplies."
The U.S. is set to receive at least two ships carrying a total of some 90,000 metric tons of diesel and jet fuel that have been diverted from their original destinations in Europe to the East Coast, as reported by Reuters on October 14. The diesel is arriving from the United Arab Emirates.
In response to the diesel shortage, the Biden administration has been considering limiting fuel exports to lower consumer prices. De Haan thinks that there's "not much [Biden] personally can do."
