My window on this is admittedly small, but Stephanie Ruhle yesterday morning went on and on about how “2 Dan Sullivans” hurt the Democrats (meaning the national party) because…reasons.
Everyone ran for their fainting couch, ignoring the fact this issue had been adjudicated by the Alaska courts up to the state Supreme Court, which ruled it didn’t matter how many “Dan Sullivans” were on the ballot.
All that matters is the gossip.
The Republican Party has done this kind of thing hundreds of times for many years using dark money PACs. It’s part of their standard playbook going back decades. Their largest donor has also given out $1 million bonuses to voters. But two Dan Sullivans in AK is the crime of the century because Dems are held to a much different standard.

Republicans constantly do dirty and deceptive tricks like this to deceive and mislead voters. But we’re supposed to be super outraged about 2 Dan Sullivans on the ballot.

Following an order from a Travis County judge, the Republican Women’s Caucus (RWC) Fund and a man named John Braun have been identified as the names behind controversial text messages sent to Texans earlier this month purporting to offer resources to transgender students, seemingly confirming widespread speculation that the effort was a Republican political ploy. Some three million mailers containing similar information were also sent.Meanwhile:
The revelation, first reported here, comes in the final days of a tight Senate race between Democrat James Talarico and Republican Ken Paxton, whose former impeachment lawyer, Chris Hilton, appeared in court on behalf of the Texas Transgender Student Union (TTSU), a Wyoming-based LLC that was anonymously registered in September and was reportedly behind the mailers that directed readers to the website of the Transgender Education Network of Texas (TENT), a real LGBTQ+ advocacy group that swiftly denied sending the messages or mailers. TTSU said through its attorney in a court filing that the entity “is not going to engage in any further text or mail communications.”
On Tuesday, Travis County District Judge Jan Soifer ordered from the bench oral deposition of a representative of TTSU and denied the organization’s motion to dismiss. Soifer also ordered Infobip, a mass text-messaging company that sent the text messages on behalf of a client, to respond to written questions. Hilton, who represents both TTSU and Infobip’s client, argued that the push to reveal his clients’ identity before the election is politically motivated and would cause harm.
Well that was one hell of a closing argument tour by Trump on behalf of candidates. He salivated over men’s body parts, said high gas prices are good because oil companies are making billions, bragged about his ballroom, and said if he gave people $5k they still couldn’t afford to buy dinner at his club.
