"Alaska is holding a 48-candidate special primary to fill the state's at-large House seat left vacant after Republican Rep. Don Young died. Young held the seat for 48 years until his death in March.

Three candidates, Republicans Sarah Palin and Nick Begich III and nonpartisan candidate Al Gross, will advance forward to the general election, Insider and Decision Desk HQ project."

Lovely to hear that Sarah 'the Quitter' Palin is returning to the limelight.

Compared to the recently spawned group of loonies she's a lightweight.

JUNEAU (The Borowitz Report)—Making her boldest campaign promise to date, Sarah Palin announced that, if elected to the United States Congress, she would seek statehood for Alaska.

“As I travel up and down this great land of ours, a land of caribou, polar bears, and also, too, of people, I say to myself that it’s a disgrace that Alaska hasn’t been made a state,” she said. “Alaska deserves stateliness.”

“You look at Alaska on a map and it’s just gigantic, and then you compare it with so-called Hawaii, which is barely a bunch of tiny specks,” she said. “I don’t see why quote-unquote Hawaii gets to be a state just because Barack Hussein Obama says it is.”

She also shed light on her abrupt resignation halfway through her only term as the governor of Alaska, in 2009. “I woke up one morning and said to myself, ‘Sarah, it’s not fair that you’re working your fanny off as governor of a place that’s not even a state,’ ” she said. “I will make you this promise: if I’m halfway through my term as your congressperson and Alaska is still not a state, I will quit also.”

Beto goes there.

Speaking at meeting a heckler starts laughing when he's talking about the mass murder at Uvalde, O'Roarke calls him out as a MFer.

Good. More of this, please.

Too late. A member of the "squad" (not a fan) said "Lets impeach the mo****f****r" after the Dems regained control of the House in 2018.

That leaves opening to opposing Dem candidates. Things like "You had no intention of following the will of the people" or "You'll say anything to get elected" or "You'll follow tRump as long as you think it will get you elected". GOP hypocrisy, the gift that keeps on giving.
