At least 25 communities around Alaska joined the No Kings protest today, from Nome to Healy to Ketchikan.

Pretty incredible costumes and signs today in Anchorage, and while playful and enthusiastic, there was also a lot of anxiety, sadness and fear.

Most Alaskans would rather go to the #NoKings rally in Anchorage. They heard enough with Sen. Dan Sullivan. Why even bother listening to Rep. Nick Begich 3? He has nothing different or new to say. 👎🏽👎🏽

Alaska Republican US Rep. Nick Begich III addresses the Alaska Federation of Natives conference today.

No protesters, like at Sen. Sullivan's yesterday, but also notably less attendees.

Unfortunately, based on our initial reading of Senator Lee's bill, it directly amends the Wilderness Act to straight up allow DHS road building, motor use, surveillance tech, landing of aircraft, etc. in ALL Wilderness areas in the entire United States!

"I've told the story of Akromiya for 20 years. I’m telling it again now, because today is No King’s Day, and I am afraid that 'Antifa' is the American Akromiya: a fabricated entity made by state propagandists to persecute anyone who opposes the government."

Inventing Antifa
In 2005, the Uzbek government invented a group called “Akromiya” to justify massacring protesters. Now I worry the US government will do the same.

To a few people replying saying it is on the news, at the time of posting not a single network was covering this in the top of the hour headlines.

That has started to change, thankfully.

But it is still far too far down the news agenda. And we should discuss the reasons why that is the case.

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm.

The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now!

Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows.

FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.
Homes flooded in Kipnuk Flooding seen with water up to the crash barriers of local roads Sheds and debris lie scattered in the storm A small blue house has been blown onto its roof
