So many people have grown up to be the villains of our stories.

Cal-Maine, the biggest egg producer, has been accused of using bird flu as cover to jack up prices and triple its profits from a year ago. It also received $22M in federal aid. While you're getting gouged at the grocery store, your tax dollars are subsidizing corporate greed.

The Fuhrer wants a Nuremberg style parade on his birthday.

‘Kennedy told reporters that there were "many, many good ways to treat measles and doctors need to know that and to know those methods.’ One problem; there is no treatment for measles. Signed, a doctor who’s been forced to deal with measles because of this stupid fraud.

Dr. Anthony Fauci urges Americans not to accept "Normalization of Untruths".

LET THEM EAT CAKE!!!!

I missed the protest because I was driving into Anchorage from Fairbanks, but as I passed Healy, they managed to get 30 people gathered for this protest. Can you believe it? 🥳 May Day protests in Alaska seek to send message to Trump Administration www.alaskasnewssource.com/2025/05/02/m...

Good to see that the Alaska State legislature is working on some super important legislation these days. This has been keeping people up at night. Alaska moves toward regulating interior designers, extending regulation of landscape architects🙄 www.adn.com/politics/ala...

The one who should win? DENISE SLIPY Denise Slipy introduced herself as a wife, mother, grandmother, former volunteer firefighter, corrections officer, first responder and reserve police officer. Slipy showed up to answer questions. The Republican did not. www.kaxe.org/elections/20...

We’re in purgatory now, but if we don’t do something soon we will be in hell.

It was never just about schools, it was never just about libraries, and it isn't actually about the books. It's about finding a way to banish entire people, entire ideas, out of society, back into the closet or worse. www.chron.com/politics/art...

Wake up Minnesota. Keep the crazies out of politics. 💙

Check out how the anchors of CBS Evening News ended their broadcast tonight:

Rachel Maddow showed off #Alaska protests tonight! She even included #Soldotna's protest! If you go to about minute 5:30, she starts talking about Alaska. #AlaskaSky #AlaskaProtests www.youtube.com/watch?v=FlW9...

Near downtown Anchorage trying to go to my car to go to work and only in Alaska when I see this. About scared me to death. #Moose

Anti-Trump "50501 movement" protest fills Daley Plaza #Chicago - For the second time this month, Daley Plaza filled up and city streets shut down for anti-Trump protesters, in a demonstration that coincided with protests all over the country. #PeoplesMovement #50501Movement #50501Protest

The protests are not for Trump to see, they are so you can all see each other and grow. It's not the protest itself that tyrants are afraid of, but the networks and community you can grow from them. Your strength is your unity and that's why the enemy thrives by demoralizing and dividing you. #3E

Dear rest of the world, the USA is going through some things right now, but please stand by while We the People sort out this mess. The Dear Leader is a madman!

Just a not so subtle reminder who the USA has voted in as President.

In the darkest times, there is cause for hope. May we find strength in each other and our shared belief that a better world is possible. Wishing everyone celebrating a blessed Easter.

Portland, Maine reporting in!
