Alaska Trans Death Cult
Alaskans are totally checked out, it’s driving me crazy. @MrAndyNgo wrote this book and no one in Alaska is reading it.
Read it, it starts in Alaska. We have a Trans Death Cult in Alaska.

Anchorage's mayor is sounding alarms about an impending fiscal precipice, yet her latest budget proposal keeps the spending spigot open wider than before. While acknowledging rising costs and shrinking revenues from various sources, she seeks approval for a plan that swells the overall outlay by millions and nudges up funding for the equity office despite its focus on preferential treatments tied to identity politics.
This equity department, rooted in notions of systemic biases, would see its allocation climb modestly, primarily to cover salaries for a handful of staff. The office tracks disparities and pushes training that assumes unconscious prejudices among residents, all while the city taps one-time reserves to paper over shortfalls. Future plans include possible property tax bumps alongside trimmed hours at libraries and pools, plus fewer police units and road repairs.
Such choices reveal a dry preference for preserving ideological outposts over trimming broader inefficiencies, as the genuine drop-off draws nearer with little runway left. Residents may wonder whether this blend of warnings and expansions truly serves core needs or merely delays harder reckonings.

Last night the Anchorage assembly room filled up for one item. Not the shelter money. Not the staffing caps. Those sat there like background noise. The turnout was for Ordinance 2026-85, the missing-middle housing overlay on the transit corridors.
People did not show up to vent. They showed up with maps, code, neighborhood facts, and homework the sponsors should have already finished. Democrats, Republicans, independents, undeclared. Same reminder, across the board. You were picked to represent your district. We the people live on these blocks. A policy with a nice name is not a result.
AO 2026-85 is the Missing Middle Housing Opportunity Overlay, sponsored by Erin Baldwin Day and George Martinez. On paper it is not a citywide rezone they claim. In practice it draws a special zone along major roads and bus lines, then loosens the rules inside it. Higher lot coverage. Flexible setbacks. More structures on a lot. Height changes. They even walked in an updated map as a floor amendment the same night. Contiguous parcels. Full streets as the line. Town center lots. R-5. A quarter mile off a 36th Avenue transit route that is not even running yet. That is not a finished product. That is still drawing the map while people are testifying.
The pitch is more housing. Fine. Anchorage needs homes. Rent is up about 50 percent and home prices about 81 percent over 15 years, and that did not happen by accident. But good intentions are not a delivery system. If the overlay does not show what actually gets built, who can afford it, and what it does to parking, drainage, seismic ground, and the blocks already there, it is not ready.
The public did that work last night and handed it back.
I cut the comments into a video. Facts over feelings. There is a little feeling in there, because people live where this lands. The substance is the homework. If you want the best arguments, skip to the last five speakers. They are fire.
More of these coming. Watch the room before you trust the summary.

Alaska’s election overhaul has transformed the state into a high-stakes battleground for out-of-state money.
The Shift: Funded heavily by outside national organizations like Arabella Advisors and Unite America, Alaska replaced traditional party primaries with an open top-four primary and ranked-choice voting.
The 2022 Test: In the 2022 special House election, two Republican candidates split the first-choice vote. After the lowest candidate was eliminated, roughly 11,000 ballots were discarded as "exhausted" because voters didn't mark a backup choice, resulting in a Democratic victory in a red state.
The Repeal Fight: The controversial results triggered an escalating campaign to repeal the system in 2026. Both sides are now drawing massive financial backing from high-profile national billionaires, including Elon Musk and Jeff Yass, turning Alaska’s voting system into an ongoing national proxy war.

Alaska’s Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD), once a reliable, guaranteed birthright, has devolved into a volatile political battleground that threatens the state’s financial and social stability.
The Original Promise: Established under Governor Jay Hammond in the 1970s, the Permanent Fund was created to prevent the "Alaska Syndrome" by saving oil wealth for future generations. Payouts were governed by an objective statutory formula using a five-year rolling average to insulate citizen checks from market swings and political meddling.
The Fiscal Breaking Point: Following the 2016 oil crash, Governor Bill Walker bypassed the statutory formula to divert hundreds of millions of dollars from the dividend pool to fund government operations. In 2018, Senate Bill 26 placed a 5% cap on annual fund draws (POMV), putting citizen payouts in direct competition with state agency funding.
Political Paralysis & Volatility: With every dollar for public services directly shrinking dividend checks, annual payouts have swung wildly (from $992 in 2020, to $3,284 in 2022, down to $1,700 in 2024). The fight over dividend cuts has triggered endless legislative gridlock, budget vetoes, special sessions, and recall efforts.
The Human & Civic Toll: Critics argue the roughly $25 billion redirected away from households acts as a regressive tax, disproportionately harming rural and low-income residents who depend on the funds to survive high living costs.
Without broader tax reform or a constitutional amendment to permanently lock in the formula, Alaska faces an unresolved structural deficit that leaves its iconic dividend held hostage by state politics.

"The Permanent Short" by Phil Izon @907Honest will be the long form version of all these short videos and a book with 300 Sources: How $25 Billion Vanished from Alaskans’ Pockets
In 2001, Enron shocked the nation when $25 billion vanished due to corporate fraud. Today, another $25 billion has disappeared, not from Wall Street, but quietly drained by a state government behind closed doors:
The Original Promise: Governor Jay Hammond created the Alaska Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) to bypass politicians entirely, locking in a statutory 5-year rolling average formula to distribute oil windfalls directly to residents and enforce fiscal sanity.
The Crack in the Armor: When global oil prices collapsed, Governor Bill Walker cut the 2016 statutory payout of $2,052 roughly in half to $1,022—diverting $666 million straight back into state coffers to patch budget deficits.
Codifying the Divergence: In 2018, the legislature institutionalized the shift under the POMV (Percent of Market Value) rule, placing government services and citizen dividends into direct annual competition for a fixed pot of cash.
The $25B Toll: What began as a $1,300 cut per citizen in 2019 doubled to $2,600 by 2023. Cumulatively, over $25 billion meant for households has been redirected to government spending without a single broad-based tax vote.
The Fallout: Treated on state ledgers as "fiscal savings," the move functions as a regressive tax, driving poverty rates toward nearly 20% and forcing vulnerable rural and low-income families out of the state while miring the legislature in perpetual gridlock.

Eric Hafner, a federal inmate serving a 20-year sentence in Otisville, New York, for making bomb and death threats against public officials, managed to secure an official spot on Alaska’s general election ballot for the U.S. House of Representatives, despite having never lived in or visited the state.
How He Gained Ballot Access:
Constitutional & State Loopholes: Under the U.S. Constitution's Inhabitancy Clause, candidates must reside in the state they represent on Election Day, not when declaring their candidacy. Meanwhile, Alaska state law lacked any provision barring convicted felons from running for federal office.
The "Top-Four" Mechanical Failure: In Alaska's nonpartisan open primary, all candidates run on a single ballot, with the top four advancing to the general election. Hafner placed sixth, securing just 467 votes (under 0.5%). However, when two higher-ranking candidates withdrew, state rules automatically promoted Hafner to fill the vacant general election slot.
Failed Legal Challenges: Alaska Democrats sued to remove him, fearing he would act as a spoiler. The courts dismissed the challenge, ruling that the state's Ranked-Choice Voting (RCV) system inherently "neutralizes harm" because voters opposed to Hafner could simply rank him last.
The Electoral Fallout:
Even fringe spoiler candidates siphoning 1% of the vote can dramatically alter close races, a vulnerability political operatives have also exploited by running decoy candidates with identical names to divide the electorate.
The spectacle of an out-of-state federal convict qualifying for a major congressional race fueled widespread public frustration, prompting a citizen-led ballot measure push to repeal Alaska's open primary and ranked-choice system altogether.

No Happy hump day PFD Rant
You can shrug and take the $1,200 in October. Or you can treat the next six weeks like it matters who you send to Juneau.
So…. A regular Alaskan just walked into court and asked a simple question the Capitol has been dodging for ten years. Stephen Spann, a disabled veteran, filed a complaint in Anchorage. He is not asking for a special check. He is asking the court to say out loud whether AS 43.23.025 still means anything, or if the state can leave the statutory PFD formula on the books while paying whatever number Juneau feels like that year.
That is not a new fight. It is the same fight.
In 2016 Governor Walker vetoed about half the dividend. Senator Wielechowski and two old-timers sued. The Alaska Supreme Court sided with the governor in 2017. The ruling was technical and blunt. Permanent Fund earnings are not a dedicated piggy bank. Paying the dividend takes an annual appropriation. That appropriation can be cut. The current justices have not walked that back. So the statute sits there like a museum piece. Lawmakers point at it when it is convenient and ignore it when they want the money for government.
Fair enough. That is the law as the court wrote it. Cough coucorrupt. Maybe cough… cough…
What is not fair is the act they put on after. They keep the formula in statute. They keep telling voters they support the PFD. Then they vote the other way on the budget and call it fiscal responsibility.
This year the statutory number was in the $3,600 to $3,800 range. What people are getting is $1,000 plus a $200 energy add-on. That gap is not weather. It is a choice.
Look at the vote boards people are circulating. Senate amendment on CSHB 263. House amendment on April 10. Green and red names. Different chambers, same story. A handful try to lock in the full statutory check. The rest vote to keep a bigger pile in the operating budget.
Then they go home and talk like the money just evaporated. It did not evaporate. It got spent.
If you are still mad about that, good. Stay mad. But stay honest too. The Supreme Court already told you this is a budget fight, not a hidden constitutional lockbox. So the next move is not another ten years of Facebook comments. It is the ballot. November is coming. A lot of the names on those boards are running again. Some are unopposed. Some have challengers.
If your test is “will this person spend my PFD or send it,” then look at the roll call before you look at the mailer. Do not vote for the same hands and then act shocked when the check stays small.
Spann’s filing will probably get the same answer the last one got. Maybe it should. Courts do not rewrite the anti-dedication clause because people are tired of $1,200 instead of $3,800. That does not make the filing pointless. It puts the conflict back on paper. Statute says one thing. Practice does another. Somebody finally asked a judge to pick.
Complaining after you keep sending the same crew is just noise. Facts over feelings. The formula is still in the book. The money is not.
That is the rant.

The provided text outlines a strategic political plan by Phil Izon to bypass long-standing legal obstacles preventing the relocation of Alaska’s capital and legislature.
The primary focus is the repeal of the FRANK statute, a 1978 law that mandates rigorous financial commissions and specific bonding requirements before any government move can occur.
Proponents argue that overturning this law is a fiscally responsible alternative to spending nearly one billion dollars on flood mitigation projects for the current capital in Juneau.
The proposal suggests moving core operations to existing Anchorage real estate while transforming Juneau’s historic government buildings into revenue-generating museums.
By following a specific initiative process, the plan aims to present voters with a choice between expensive infrastructure repairs and a permanent move to a more accessible, flood-secure location.
Ultimately, the sources frame the repeal of FRANK as the essential first step toward modernizing state government and ensuring operational continuity.

The provided text presents a strenuous critique of Alaska’s ranked choice voting (RCV) and jungle primary system, arguing that the 2020 transition was achieved through deceptive marketing and "dark money" influence. The author contends that the current model undermines political parties by forcing internal rivalries into the general election and allowing winners to be decided by a diminishing pool of ballots. Furthermore, the source alleges that proponents use tactical candidate withdrawals and confusing ballot decoys to manipulate outcomes in favor of liberal candidates. To counter these perceived flaws, the text urges voters to repeal the system via Ballot Measure 2 or utilize "rank the red" strategies to prevent conservative vote splitting. Ultimately, the narrative frames these election reforms as undemocratic tools that prioritize specific political interests over transparent, majority-supported representation. @KCGilbert1119

An Alaskan grassroots movement is pushing a direct-democracy initiative to completely ban weather modification and climate engineering across the state.
Key Takeaways
The Ban & Penalties: Outlaws cloud seeding and solar radiation modification (dispersing aerosols to block sunlight). Anyone financing or deploying these technologies faces felony charges and fines up to $5 million.
Ecological Protection: Aims to protect wild salmon spawning beds and local subsistence food supplies from unnatural winter floods and sediment runoff caused by artificial precipitation.
Strict Airport Surveillance: Mandates that public-use airport operators report aircraft spotted with flare racks or chemical nozzles within 48 hours or face criminal misdemeanor charges.
The Strategy: Bypasses state politicians and out-of-state money entirely, relying solely on verified voter petition signatures to place the act directly into law.

This was the conspiracy Barack Obama engineered in order to get his hands on his ICA report.
The Mar-a-Lago UNREDACTED SEARCH WARRANT CONFIRMS that the Biden DOJ, FBI, and GSA engineered and manufactured the Trump Mar-a-Lago raid.
The DOJ and the General Services Administration (GSA) had boxes of Donald Trump’s classified documents in their possession after Trump left office.
They contacted Trump’s representatives at Mar-a-Lago and told them to come pick them up.
What did Barack Obama do?
—— They charged Donald J. Trump with illegal possession of classified documents that they themselves had hand-delivered to him.
@FBIDirectorKash: “You literally can’t make this up. It’s not even entrapment because it’s worse…
They literally said it’s illegal for government agents to possess illegally classified information, so let’s call the culprit we want to pin this on, Donald Trump. Let’s have them pick up the documents, and during transport, we will magically make them illegal for Donald Trump to possess.”

Alaska’s Billion-Dollar Betrayal: The Erosion of the Permanent Fund Dividend
Alaska’s Permanent Fund Dividend (PFD) was created under Governor Jay Hammond in the 1970s to turn nonrenewable resource revenue into a permanent public trust, guaranteeing equal dividends to every resident. The video argues that the state government has dismantled that promise to plug state budget holes.
The Formula Shift: Starting in 2016 and later codified under the 2018 POMV (Percent of Market Value) rule, lawmakers began capping dividends and diverting earnings into government operations instead of adhering to the original statutory payout formula.
The Payout Gap: In 2024, the statutory formula would have provided roughly $3,900 per Alaskan, but the legislature approved only $1,718, withholding over $2,100 per person.
Impact on Families: For an average family of four, the difference between the statutory promise and actual payouts totaled over $50,000 in lost income between 2016 and 2024.
Economic Fallout: The video asserts that cutting the dividend acts as a severe regressive tax on lower-income families, fuels net out-migration, and threatens to deplete the fund's earnings reserve by the late 2020s without a constitutional amendment to protect it.
The short is titled "The Permanent Short: Alaska's Billion Dollar Betrayal," produced by 907 Honest.

Alaska’s Rainmaker Act: Closing the Skies to Geoengineering
Alaska is preparing to transition from an unregulated atmospheric frontier to enforcing the nation's strictest weather-modification ban. Prompted by an unauthorized drone cloud-seeding trial on the Kenai Peninsula, the proposed Rainmaker Act (Draft 5) bypasses traditional permitting frameworks entirely, replacing legal silence with zero-tolerance criminal prohibition.
Core Pillars of the Legislation
Salmon-First Environmental Rationale: Rooted in the Alaska Constitution’s "sustained-yield" mandate, the bill frames geoengineering as an existential threat to wild fisheries and subsistence security. Artificially induced precipitation risks scouring salmon egg nests (redds), causing destructive rain-on-snow floods, and destabilizing cold-water thermal refugia vital for juvenile fish.
No "Research" Loophole: The statute prevents startups from masking commercial activities behind scientific pretexts. Labels like "proof-of-concept," "glacier restoration," "water generation," or "academic research" are expressly barred as legal defenses.
Severe Financial and Criminal Penalties: To eliminate cloud seeding as a routine corporate expense, violations are designated as Class C felonies carrying fines up to $500,000 for individuals and $5,000,000 for corporations, alongside daily civil fines up to $100,000 and the forfeiture of aircraft and equipment.
Airport Surveillance Mandates: Public airport operators must report aircraft equipped with modification gear (e.g., flare racks, chemical nozzles) within 48 hours of gaining actual knowledge. Failing to report is a Class A misdemeanor, turning regional tarmacs into frontline detection networks.
Citizen Enforcement: Impacted residents can act as private attorneys general to seek immediate injunctions. Citizens may bypass standard 30-day notice periods in cases of imminent irreparable harm, with the statute authorizing courts to award legal fees to prevailing plaintiffs.
The Rainmaker Act asserts state atmospheric sovereignty, treating regional weather systems as protected natural resources rather than open-air laboratories.
