Send us a textNathaniel Herz is a freelance reporter who's spent over a decade working in Alaska, including stints at the Anchorage Daily News and Alaska Public Media. A few years ago he started his own newsletter "Northern Journal," where he is supported by individual subscribers and grant funding to do his own projects in collaboration with various media organizations like ProPublica, the ADN, and Alaska Public Media. He also has a podcast called "Northern Journal." Nat is on the show today because he wanted to provide a counter perspective to the doom and gloom attitude present in some of my recent episodes discussing the future of media in Alaska.Articles featured in today's show:"This oil platform stopped pumping 30 years ago. Alaska still won't make the owner tear it down.""The last skipper in Ouzinkie: How Gulf of Alaska villages lost their Native fishing fleets.""How a risky state investment in seafood cost Alaskans millions and left a fishing town in crisis."Podcast episodes mentioned:"Lisa Murkowski: 'The problem with standing on principle is when your constituents get hurt'""What happens when the trans-Alaska pipeline shuts down? And who pays to remove it?"

Donald Trump's control of the Republican Party is almost complete. But there are still some members pushing back against the president. Sen. Lisa Murkowski is a persistent dissident. She was one of the few Senators to vote against a recent package of cuts that had already been approved in a spending bill. She has also voted against and expressed reservations about a number of Donald Trump's cabinet members. She voted to convict him on impeachment charges after the January 6 2021 Capitol Hill riots.  On this episode of Free Expression, Gerry Baker speaks with Murkowski about her recent memoir, “Far From Home,” her concerns about HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s stances on vaccines in relation to the recent measles outbreak in Texas, and why she's “not losing sleep” over the direction of the Republican party. Learn more about your ad choices.

Helena and Theodore explain why Alaska senator Lisa Murkowski flipped to cast the deciding vote on Trump's Big Beautiful Act: an exemption that rewards her state's highest-in-the-nation SNAP error rates. They also take a look at how the law creates barriers to food assistance and healthcare, with paperwork, work requirements, and pushing administrative costs to the states. Finally, RFK Jr. has talked a big game about banning artificial dyes in foods – but it's places like West Virginia that have taken action. Do people really want beet-flavored red M&M's?

First: Crisis control. As President Trump nears six months in office, he threatens new tariffs and ramped-up ICE raids. But amid backlash to his bill and a MAGA world mutiny, can the president take back the narrative? And: Survivor. One year after he was shot, how has the assassination attempt shaped Trump? A new book has fresh details on that fateful day. Plus: Exclusive. As Trump hits the road to sell his new law, CNN's Manu Raju caught up with Senator Lisa Murkowski facing heat for her vote.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Join hosts Dave Roberts and Ken Pullin for episode 378 of the "Let Me Tell You Why You Wrong Podcast." Just back from his travels, County Commissioner Ken Pullin shares his unique observations and strong opinions on policy, travel, and the latest headlines. Get ready for an unfiltered discussion on legal dramas, political maneuvers, and cultural controversies. Key Topics and Unfiltered Takes:   Ken Pullin's Northeast Expedition: Ken Pullin recounts his "super nice" week in Maine, including renting a house on a lake and venturing to Ogunquit for three or four more days. He highlights the stark political contrast between Republican-leaning Kennebunkport (with its "American flags everywhere" and "Trump signs") and the more Democrat-aligned Ogunquit (where "every restaurant has the gay flag out front"). Ken also praises Boston as a "great town", noting the "pride flag" atop the Old State House, visits to Cheers, and the supposedly oldest restaurant in America, the Red Dragon Tavern. He highly recommends Acadia National Park in Maine for its "incredible" scenery and "perfect" weather, sharing a memorable encounter with a bald eagle snatching a fish while kayaking. Plus, insights into the comfort and amenities of Sky Club access during air travel.   The "Policy Problem" of Traffic Stops: As a county commissioner, Ken Pullin details getting pulled over in Thomas, Georgia, for an expired car registration. He voices a significant "problem" with the policy allowing police cars to automatically scan vehicle tags and initiate stops when a driver is "not doing anything wrong". Ken argues that an expired car tag is a "civil issue" with the county government, not a "criminal issue" for law enforcement, especially when stopped in a different county. He equates this to his strong dislike for checkpoints, which he considers a "complete fourth amendment violation" if there's no probable cause to stop someone. He notes the car was his daughter's car and humorously anticipates the "walk of shame" to pay the late tag. • National Headlines & Candid Opinions: Nice Try Diddy: Discussion of Diddy being found guilty on only two "lowest charges" related to interstate prostitution, while being acquitted of racketeering (RICO) and sex trafficking. The hosts critique the defense's "victim shaming" approach and highlight the striking discrepancy in penalties between a victimless RICO charge (up to life in prison) and sex trafficking (20 years). Bryan Kohberger's Guilty Plea: An analysis of Bryan Kohberger's unexpected decision to plead guilty to all counts to avoid the death penalty, waiving all rights to appeal. "Alligator Alcatraz" / "Gator Jail": Delving into the controversial facility in the Florida Everglades for deported individuals. From a fiscal conservative standpoint, the hosts defend the facility as humane and fiscally responsible, contrasting it with previous practices. They also discuss the strategic "psychological operation" aspect of publicizing such a facility to deter illegal immigration. Geoff Duncan's Democratic Consideration: Analysis of former Republican Lieutenant Governor Geoff Duncan mulling a run for Georgia Governor as a Democrat. The hosts express skepticism about the Democratic party's acceptance of Duncan, suggesting his anti-Trump stance is the primary reason for current consideration. "No Wieners in Girls' Sports" & Lia Thomas: A deep dive into the reversal of medals and championships for men competing in women's sports, specifically referencing transgender swimmer Lia Thomas. The US Department of Education agreement requires stripping Lia Thomas of all her medals, restoring Division I records to female athletes, and sending personalized apology letters to each of those swimmers. The hosts emphasize comments from an affected swimmer asking for an "apology for making us undress in front of him". Massive Meth Seizure: The hosts discuss the seizure of "700 pounds of meth" hidden under cucumbers in Gainesville, Georgia, speculating on its Mexican origin. The "Big Expensive Bill": An in-depth look at the massive legislative bill that passed despite Republican control. Key aspects discussed include funding the border wall, cutting welfare for illegals, imposing work requirements for Medicaid recipients, and a significant increase in the deduction cap for State and Local Taxes (SALT) from $10,000 to $40,000 (a "gift to Democrat states"). The controversial "carve-out" for Senator Lisa Murkowski of Alaska to secure a Senate vote is also examined. Politician Antics: Comments on House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries' "silliest" eight-hour speech on the House floor, and Representative Nancy Mace's social media antics, including chronicling her drive to D.C. in her pajamas, leading to a discussion on politicians trying to be "social media influencers".   Other Noteworthy Segments: The tragic Texas flooding and missing children from Camp Mystic, debunking "erroneous information" spread by "influencers" like Beth Jackson, Donald Trump's "$200 fragrance" named "Fight, Fight, Fight", the attempted comeback of the Chi-Chi's Mexican restaurant chain (after a listeria outbreak), and Dave's 18th wedding anniversary.  

On today's Midday Report with host Terry Haines:The U.S. Department of Education is withholding nearly $7 billion in education funding for programs that range from migrant education to English language instruction and gifted education. Gov. Mike Dunleavy is now asking roughly half of the Alaska state House not to show up for the first five days of the special session he called. And reactions to Sen. Murkowski's Big Beautiful Vote.Photo: U.S. Sens. Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and John Barrasso of Wyoming, both Republicans, center, walk into the Senate chamber on Tuesday, July 1, 2025.

Max Rose, filling in for Jason Kander, joins Ravi Gupta this week to break down the GOP's reckless budget bill as Mike Johnson shamelessly spins its benefits on Fox News and Chip Roy sells voters a dangerous pack of cuts. They analyze Lisa Murkowski's pushback to Rand Paul's criticism, Trump's bizarre threat to Elon Musk, and how delaying Medicaid cuts until after the midterms is a cynical ploy to fool voters. Rose and Gupta also dive into Trump's desperate attacks on Mamdani and what his victory signals for the future of bold progressive ideas, plus they discuss CBS News settling a Trump lawsuit, and Trump's sneaky move to shift his Des Moines Register case to a friendlier state court, all while Fox News parrots GOP talking points with zero shame.

Chris Cuomo tears into Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," calling it a "f*** you" to working Americans who are angry about a system rigged for the powerful. He argues the bill exposes everything wrong with American politics: it adds trillions to the debt while cutting Medicaid and SNAP, gives 80% of tax cuts to the wealthy, and hurts the very MAGA voters who supported Trump—especially through cuts to rural hospitals that disproportionately serve his base. Cuomo condemns Republicans like Lisa Murkowski who called the bill fiscally irresponsible but voted for it anyway, proving party loyalty trumps principle. He argues this regressive bill—which treats tax cuts as "cost-free" through accounting gimmicks—is exactly why populist movements on both left and right are exploding. The bill rewards the top while punishing those struggling most, fueling the extremism and violence we're seeing across the political spectrum. Plus, Dr. Kirk Elliott (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) discusses why the bill's debt implications could force interest rate changes and what it means for household finances.

Tonight on the KRBD Evening Report….A north Ketchikan home was destroyed by fire Wednesday morning – no injuries were reported, the family of a women who died in a van in a Juneau grocery store parking lot questions the police's conclusions, and journalists discuss Sen. Lisa Murkowski's new memoir.Those stories and more coming up…

I had to laugh when NBC News' Ryan Nobles' relayed Senator Rand Paul's reaction to Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski's caving directly to her face. Why?Well, for one, she had that "raccoon when the light comes on" look; for another, sh elicited a response so on-brand with "America First," MAGA and the kind of voter the GOP corrals on the regular ... the "I gots mine" crowd. That said, I opted to go the "well, let's look at what's good in the bill" route, and even then, found that all that glitters ain't gold.The "no tax on overtime" part, for example. A. it sunsets. B. it might benefit 2% of U.S. households and C. "very few will see significant gains." Like $10 per year. That's not going to overcome healthcare costs going up with all the Medicaid cuts coming. The $1000 'Trump accounts' for babies is another shimmery "nothing nugget." Its benefits are - surprise - skewed to the wealthy. Okay, what about the 'no tax on tips' carve-out? A. it's capped at $25,000, and B. "would primarily benefit higher-income tipped workers, mostly because those who make less than the standard deduction already owe no federal income tax."------In Georgia, particularly rural MAGA Georgia, the 'Big Beautiful Bill' is whacking those voters' economic prospects, too. Towns like Cedertown had clen energy manufacturing coming their way. Now paused. Then there are the looming Medicaid cuts and the impact they'll have on the lives of Georgia mothers. Dr. Carey Perry's op/ed in the AJC relayed just how vital Medicaid is to nearly half of all Georgia births and how losing preventative healthcare sources will be deadly for mothers. "Loss of this coverage would almost certainly negate the efforts that continue to be made to prevent the loss of life. Medicaid is essential to our progress in combating maternal death."But hey, Lisa Murkowski got some goodies for the 740,000 people who live in Alaska. There are ninety or more COUNTIES with more people living in them than Alaska, but Lisa took care of her folks. The rest of us?

Wednesday, and it's David Waldman and Greg Dworkin's last live appearance before Explodey Day! Probably not their last alive appearance, though. They don't seem the types to screw around with such things. Zohran, the Destroyer! Zohran, the Magnificent! Zohran, the Relatable! Nothing scares Democrats more than winning, because if you win... you could lose. And yet… sometimes a win or two will slip in, like in New Jersey, or maybe around San Diego. Of course, winning just invites death threats. Don't worry Dems, Trump says he holds all the levers, and well, he kind of does. Paramount anted up its $16 M (to make $8 B), and the bag gets passed back to CNN. Lisa Murkowski got hers, if you want any, you be a Senator. Trump had a great time in the undrained swamp. What is it about “Alligator Alcatraz” that seems to resonate with MAGA? Does it harken back to a time America could rediscover its lost… greatness? Sean “Diddy” Combs escaped sex trafficking and racketeering charges but was convicted of a prostitution offense. Jimmy Swaggart would probably forgive that, but can't look to Donald Trump for forgiveness, for the moment. Jared L. Wise, who wanted to kill police on Jan 6, has been given an opportunity to do so at the DOJ. University of Virginia president James E. Ryan took one for the team, and the team's hundreds of millions in federal funding and resigned, to give Trump his biggest kill yet. LOL libtards! What happened to all that tariff disaster you said was heading our way? Wait… Oh, this just in….

Chuck Todd begins by reacting to the senate passing Trump's signature piece of legislation: “The Big Beautiful Bill.” He reviews the excuses and rationales given by the senators who had expressed issues with the bill but still voted for it, and explains why the fear of Donald Trump's wrath is enough to get lawmakers to fall in line and explains why the bill's passage is emblematic of the broken state of Congress.Then, Chuck is joined by political scientist and Eurasia Group president Ian Bremmer to dissect the most pressing geopolitical challenges facing the world today. The discussion begins with analysis of recent Iranian strikes and the Middle East conflict, exploring whether Iran has been exposed as a "paper tiger" and examining the complex dynamics between Trump, Netanyahu, and regional powers like Saudi Arabia. Bremmer offers insights into Iran's domestic vulnerabilities—noting the regime's mere 20% public support—while assessing the likelihood of nuclear developments and potential exit strategies from current conflicts.The conversation expands to cover Trump's relationship with NATO allies, the slowly deteriorating situation in Ukraine, and Putin's potential next moves, including the concerning possibility of nuclear escalation if his regime faces existential threats. Bremmer and Todd also tackle the rise of populist movements globally, the erosion of democratic guardrails in America, and the fundamental shift toward reactionary politics that may define a generation. Throughout, Bremmer provides his characteristic blend of realpolitik analysis and concern for democratic institutions, culminating in a sobering assessment of how America's political system now rewards winners over leaders and creates conditions where "socialists can't beat capitalists, but they can beat kleptocrats."Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment regarding the potential for erosion of Trump's support, election denialism and a fun alternate history theory where legendary Bears coach Mike Ditka beat Barack Obama for state office in Illinois.Timeline:(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)00:00 Introduction00:15 90 days from Liberation Day and “90 deals in 90 days”, there are two deals01:30 Trump will back off on tariffs again to avoid economic damage02:30 The Big Beautiful Bill passes the Senate04:15 Josh Hawley votes for bill despite promises not to cut health care06:00 Lisa Murkowski cites tax break expiration for her yes vote08:15 Murkowski has always been Alaska first over America first09:30 Republicans fall in line out of fear of Trump11:00 Congress is broken 13:00 Bipartisanship is dead in the 21st century14:30 Both parties have weaponized partisanship16:15 How do we fix the broken congress?17:30 The public needs to understand WHY congress is broken19:00 Independents could force congress to function better21:00 Bill was rushed due to Trump's impatience22:30 We're in the kleptocracy stage, headed toward authoritarianism24:00 Dysfunction in congress has created a more powerful presidency26:00 Ian Bremmer joins the Chuck ToddCast! 28:00 Media cycle has already moved on from the Iran strike 29:15 The strike wasn't meant to be a war 30:15 Steve Bannon's theory that we're on the brink of WW3 31:45 Trump wanted a negotiated settlement with Iran 33:00 Netanyahu was always going to force the US's hand 34:30 Trump is capable of telling Bibi "no" 36:15 Would Trump support a two state solution? 38:30 Iran has no friends on the global stage willing to support them 40:15 After investigators access Gaza, Israel will lose support 41:45 Saudis will demand a two state solution 43:15 Did we expose Iran as a "paper tiger"? 45:30 The Iranian regime only has 20% support from the public 46:30 Iran's strong enough to put down an uprising 47:30 The U.S. won't put boots on the ground in Iran 49:00 What is Iran's exit strategy from this conflict? 52:00 Iran is likely 3 years away from a bomb 53:15 Iran may be a theocracy, but doesn't act irrationally 54:45 The state of Iraq's leadership? 56:15 Is there global investment in Iraq? 57:15 Status of Trump + NATO? 59:30 Europe underinvested in defense for decades 1:01:15 Pushing Europe to spend more on defense is one of Trump's best achievements 1:02:00 Status of Russia/Ukraine war? 1:03:00 Ukraine is losing slowly 1:04:15 Chances Putin would attack one of the Baltic states? 1:06:15 Putin could use a nuke if he felt his regime was at risk 1:08:15 The rise of left wing populism 1:10:00 American elections will be free and fair, but public won't think so 1:12:00 Guardrails on the executive branch have been weakened 1:13:15 Are we stuck with reactionary politics for a generation? 1:14:45 Trump didn't attend funeral for assassinated Minnesota lawmakers 1:15:45 The U.S. doesn't create leaders, it creates winners 1:18:30 The lack of bipartisanship creates bad legislation 1:19:45 The Big Beautiful Bill will create more Mamdanis 1:20:45 Socialists can't beat capitalists, but they can beat kleptocrats1:23:30 Thoughts on conversation with Ian Bremmer 1:24:00 Mamdani beat Cuomo by double digits in final tally 1:25:30 There will be a fight for the soul of the Democratic party 1:26:15 Ask Chuck 1:26:30 Could Trump's support erode like Marion Barry's? 1:30:30 Election denialism now coming from both sides regularly? 1:36:30 How different would things look if Mike Ditka had beat Obama in Illinois?

Ever the journalist, E. Jean took assiduous notes about her two civil suits against Donald Trump, the only occasions he has been held liable for his lies since he became president. And while the origin story of her cases is situated in an infamous department store dressing room, she managed to find a high comedy in the courtroom—her description of Alina Habba is one for the ages. Plus, as the reconciliation bill was moving toward final passage in the Senate, Sarah and Tim discussed the preposterous Frankenstein bill, how Republicans are not listening to their voters, and the worthlessness of Lisa Murkowski.

WILL THE BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL PASS? No one seems to know as of this morning, but that may change by the time I start the show. Have they gutted the cost saving measures enough for Lisa Murkowski? Who knows. You can read more here but I'm sure there will be updates soon.HOW ABOUT A LITTLE VETERAN ART? Jefferson County Public Library has partnered with the Veterans of Foreign Wars to showcase artwork by their members and photography from the Denver Vet Center. Throughout the month of July, several JCPL locations will host the work of different local artists. There will be a one-hour reception at each location for the artists showing there, providing the public with an opportunity to listen to their stories and discover how artistic expression helps triumph over adversity. I'm talking with Sean Eads, JeffCo Public Library Programming Coordinator, today at 2:30 about it. Find out more here.

Here we are, at the end of a long month, but David Waldman and Greg Dworkin still aren't tired and can keep it up as long as we can. Thom Tillis picked up his integrity at the coat check area and left the Senate, rather than having Trump's fat ugly bill become his epitaph. Of course, Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski are oh-so-close to becoming Democrats… until right about now in the process, when someone offers them a “reacharound” or a “wraparound” or whatever the kids are calling it nowadays. No normal person would vote for this bill, but few in DC run into people outside of a photo op. Mayors, however, run into actual people no matter where their cities are, which is a shock to those politicians who aren't used to that. Donald K. Trump wants everyone to know that the people who leaked the truth about Iran are LYING and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the laws that will be disregarded in their prosecution. Alligator Auschwitz awaits them all. Trump will release an MS-13 friend of Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele to get him to take back Kilmar Abrego Garcia and maybe lose him a little better this time. Bibi Netanyahu notes that the more Gazans he kills, the more open he feels towards a ceasefire deal. Pam Bondi, She-Wolf of the DOJ, finds her A-II solutions to be just as fun as her 2A ones. Here's what a $1 Trillion Medicaid Cut would look like. Here's a little of what it would feel like.

The Senate's vote-a-rama continues, as members offer and vote on amendments to the Republican's tax and spending cuts bill. But passage of the bill isn't a sure thing. Republicans Rand Paul of Kentucky and Thom Tillis of North Carolina have both said they're voting "no", while Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska haven't said how they'll vote. Congressional Republicans and President Trump have said they want the bill passed and signed into law by July 4th. Last night on the floor, Sen. Tillis criticized both the bill's Medicaid cuts and the president for breaking a campaign promise to not interfere with Medicaid benefits. That prompted responses from the president on social media, including one announcing he'd said he would back a primary challenge against the senator. Not long after, Sen. Tillis announced he would not seek reelection next year. A federal appeals court heard arguments today on the president's use of the Alien Enemies Act. Lawyers for the American Civil Liberties Union say the Trump administration is unlawfully using the law to take away due process for possible deportees. The administration maintains that a Venezuelan gang is carrying out an invasion of the US at the direction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. Learn more about your ad choices.

Alaska Senator Lisa Murkowski joins Margaret Hoover to discuss her new memoir “Far from Home,” in which she reflects on her rise in Washington, D.C. and her role as a moderate Republican in the time of Donald Trump.“My place in the middle is often uncomfortable, sometimes lonely,” Murkowski tells Margaret. “But it's where I feel I belong.”While she maintains only Congress can declare war, Murkowski defends President Trump's strikes against Iran. And as the Senate debates Trump's“Big Beautiful Bill,” she warns that shifting Medicaid costs to states could cut services for the most vulnerable Americans.After losing her primary to a Tea Party challenger in 2010, Murkowski defied her own party and waged a successful write-in campaign to save her seat. In 2022, she fended off another challenge from a fellow Republican endorsed by Trump. She reflects on how Alaska's election reforms have reduced partisanship and given her freedom to put her state's interests ahead of her party.Murkowski also discusses the importance of public broadcasting to her constituents as the Trump administration looks to cut federal funds, whether the country has entered a new era of political violence, and whether she has made a decision on running for reelection in 2028.Support for “Firing Line for Margaret Hoover” is provided by Robert Granieri, The Tepper Foundation, Vanessa and Henry Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, Peter and Mark Kalikow, Pritzker Military Foundation, Cliff and Laurel Asness, The Meadowlark Foundation, The Beth and Ravenel Curry Foundation, Charles R.

Send us a textThe Senate faces a critical juncture as Republicans scramble to salvage President Trump's signature tax legislation after a devastating parliamentary setback. Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth McDowell has rejected a key provision that would have capped healthcare provider taxes, eliminating approximately $250 billion in planned Medicaid spending cuts meant to offset permanent corporate tax reductions.Senate Majority Leader John Thune insists they have backup plans, but several Republican senators including Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Josh Hawley had already expressed grave concerns about the potential impact on rural hospitals. The deadline pressure intensifies as President Trump publicly demands lawmakers skip their July 4th recess to complete the legislation, though many senators remain skeptical about staying in Washington without a clear timeline.Beyond domestic policy struggles, the episode delves into growing tensions between the Trump administration and media outlets over reporting on recent strikes against Iranian nuclear facilities. Defense Secretary Pete Hexeth and other officials have launched unusually personal attacks against reporters from both CNN and Fox News who questioned the administration's claims about completely "obliterating" Iran's nuclear capabilities.The show also examines the fragile state of LGBTQ rights ten years after the landmark Obergefell decision legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Despite record public approval, calls from conservative states and Supreme Court justices to reconsider the ruling have advocates concerned about its future, though the passage of the Respect for Marriage Act provides some protection against potential reversals.What emerges is a portrait of Washington's deep partisan divides and the complex interplay between political ambitions, parliamentary procedures, and constitutional rights that continues to shape America's most consequential policy debates. Subscribe now to stay informed about these critical developments and what they mean for our shared future. Support the show

Early US intel and the White House sent contradicting messages regarding the status of Iran's nuclear capabilities following the US strikes.

His silence is raising questions about his well-being. And the Senate is taking on the president's agenda. We talk with one GOP holdout, Senator Lisa Murkowski.  Learn more about your ad choices.
