An Anchorage Superior Court judge has ruled that a challenger to Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan — named Dan J. Sullivan — is eligible to run for office and be placed on the Aug. 18 primary ballot, despite the two sharing the same name and party affiliation.
A lot of "very serious people" online today are going to explain to you how landlords can only survive by raising rents on people who can barely afford it as it is. There is a lot wrong in our current housing system, but it will not be solved on the backs of low-income tenants.
There are now two Republican congressmen who haven't been seen for weeks, might be dead, aren't voting, and the GOP has political motivation to hide what's going on.

Just putting this out here so that in two years you can either laugh at me, or worship my prescience: Jon Ossoff is the guy. I think he's currently our strongest potential nominee for President, and I think he can win.
Generations of doctors and medical researchers have studied childhood vaccines. Now an ex-heroin-addicted nepo baby whose brain was partially eaten by a worm is conducting a study of his own. When his work is done, America will have the full picture on vaccines.
