From a friend: Apologies if you already heard about this but I wanted to make sure everyone who wants to has the opportunity to listen in to the interview with Murkowski tomorrow. Her assistant Fiona told us when we dropped off POMs today that we can email questions ahead of time.

Not to mention they rammed into a citizen they had a beef with because she was legally exposing them, they shot her, and didn’t render aid. They left her for dead it seems? She was apparently found.

Then, as they have done so many times now, they concocted a wild fabrication to hide their crimes.
