Alaska Republican candidate for governor appears to massively violate a donation limit

>Former Alaska Attorney General Treg Taylor, a Republican candidate for governor, violated state campaign finance laws by donating more than 60 times the maximum amount of money to his own campaign, according to disclosure documents filed this week.

>Those documents show his lieutenant governor candidate, Candice English, also violating the same limit.

>In an article published Thursday by the Anchorage Daily News, [Evan Lee, Taylor’s campaign manager] said Taylor views the donation limit as unconstitutional.

Man, I wish I could get away with breaking the law by "viewing it as unconstitutional". What a bunch of assholes.

Dark money group backing Senate Republicans launches network of fake news sites

>Both the content and tone are highly unusual for an independent news outlet. That is because the Alaska Navigator is not an independent news outlet. Rather, it is a website fully controlled by One Nation, a dark money group that works in concert with the Senate Leadership Fund (SLF), the super PAC of Senate Republicans. One Nation has directly contributed over $70 million to the SLF this political cycle.

>Alaska Navigator’s domain, thealaskanavigator.com, was registered on March 20, 2026. The website, however, includes an article dating back to January 2026, making it appear more established. That article was added using a tool called FakerPress, according to the website’s source code. FakerPress markets itself as “a clean way to generate fake and dummy content.”

Fake and dummy content — Ohio Dan in a nutshell.
