From the @adn.com story on Sullivan voting for the $500,000 gift to himself. No mention of why he didn’t object to giving himself $500,000 until after he voted for it. Also unclear is whether he didn’t read the bill and is claiming now he didn’t know he was going get $500,000 with a lawsuit.

From @lizruskin.bsky.social column. Missing from this column is what Amanda Coyne has to say about why her boss, Sen. Dan Sullivan, failed to object to this bill when he had a chance to do something about it. Did Sullivan know about the $500,000 gift to Sullivan before Sullivan voted to accept it?

Sen. Dan Sullivan voted for the $500,000 that would come his way, but his spokeswoman claims he won’t try to collect it. Why did he vote for it? Why didn’t he object?

Sen. Dan Sullivan claims he did not know of the language in the bill allowing him to collect $500,000 in revenge for checking his phone records. Sure.

Trump acts as if the money is his. Sens. Lisa Murkowski and Dan Sullivan and Rep. Nick Begich the Third are complicit with their silence. This tactic could be used against Alaska in the future.

“Political favoritism was creeping into MRAK’s reporting and causing concern among our readers, period,” says Jon Faulkner. This is the biggest shock since Capt. Renault discovered gambling at Rick’s place in Casablanca.

Suzanne Downing, who clearly supports Bernadette Wilson for governor and is unhappy with future candidate Treg Taylor, says she was ordered to kill the story about Treg Taylor. From the Nat Herz Q&A.

Someone is lying. Jon Faulkner says he never ordered Suzanne Downing to kill a story about Treg Taylor.

Politifact also says there is no evidence that the man belonged to the Democratic Socialists of America.

CNN says this is one of many false claims on X. Lots of phony experts on X are repeating the same lie as Suzanne Downing, who refers to herself as a “respected journalist.”

Suzanne Downing spreads the lie that the man charged with killing Charlie Kirk belongs to the Democratic Socialists of America.
September 13, 2025 at 1:04 AM
Sure there are some people who do this, but Suzanne Downing is lying that “we’ve seen a lot of this in Alaska.”

Spreading a lie.

Suzanne Downing is always sure of herself. No need to wait for the facts.

Suzanne Downing still spreading lies and half-truths, trying to excuse herself and hide behind the word “reportedly.”
