A Critical Political Season Could Decide if Alaska Is a Failed ‘Petrostate’

Focusing on Juneau, this article highlights what the lack of smart oil and other taxes is doing to Alaska. I think AK is a failing state in part because the current governor has so harmed youth and college education that capable young people don't want to move here. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/25/u...

I'm mourning the permanent loss of NW Alaska's Arctic region's wild lands as the NPRA will be covered with oil exploration and likely development after today's lease sale. This is a direct result of Trump's overturning of the previous, scientifically sound, management plan.

The federal govt didn't do its homework on the Strait of Hormuz and now it may make a similar mistake by not studying the cost and other problems with the proposed Ambler road. The mining companies could go bankrupt and potential returns then would be gone. www.miningnewsnorth.com/story/2026/0...

Opinion: Before chasing megaprojects, Alaska must face the real costs The Ambler road and LNG pipeline promise development, but their multibillion-dollar price tags and subsistence impacts demand a harder look.

Conservation group study asserts Ambler Road will cost Alaska billions The head of the state agency behind the road responded that it’s working to nail down a final cost, and said there are many unknowns and potential savings.

Alaska’s legislators need to know how expensive the Ambler road project will be. www.adn.com/business-eco...

Opinion: Alaska needs more than blood money bailouts to provide for our future Once again, extreme suffering abroad is likely to slightly alleviate some suffering in Alaska.

Trump’s High-Profile Oil and Gas Lease Sale in Alaska Has No Takers

Lawmakers slam Dunleavy officials over plan for new ferry terminal north of Juneau Legislators questioned a decision to spend $28.5 million on the Cascade Point ferry terminal amid local opposition.

Alaska’s Governor Dunleavy spent nearly $30 mill. in state dollars on this ferry project that may not be finished and that communities don’t want. That $28.5 mill., if reappropriated as state match $, could fund $285 mill. in roads/bridges statewide.

Opinion: I’m a lifelong Republican who worked with Dan Sullivan. I’m supporting Mary Peltola for Senate. There are times in history when loyalty to the flag must come before party loyalty.

Do we know for sure that the Alaskan paratroopers on standby would not be going to Greenland instead of Minnesota? Why would you need paratroopers in the US? Asking from Anchorage.

Opinion | Trump Is Falling for a Trap We Can All See Coming

Good summary of how we should look at Trump’s international actions: Trump Is Falling for a Trap We Can All See Coming www.nytimes.com/2026/01/06/o...

Why does the @washingtonpost.com not have any coverage of the newly released Jack Smith interview? Do they not have the reporters to cover it or are they burying it today and will write about it in a few days? Very unimpressive.

Well done!

My thoughts are with the people of Western Alaska. If emergency funds are needed, or funding needs to be reimbursed, I will absolutely support it this coming session. I hope and trust that our emergency services personnel will do all that they can.
