Trump Calls for Mary Peltola, Alaska Senate Candidate, to Be Prosecuted (Gift Article)

Republicans are trying to make it illegal for Republicans to lose elections.

Alaska’s governor says he is ordering an investigation into whether Peltola’s campaign should face criminal charges or civil penalties over its role in recruiting candidates to draw votes from the state’s Republican incumbent. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

NYT: Alaska’s governor on Wednesday night said he was ordering an investigation into whether Mary Peltola’s campaign for Senate should face criminal charges or civil penalties over its role in recruiting candidates to draw votes from the state’s Republican incumbent. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Alaskas Gouverneur ordnet strafrechtliche Ermittlungen gegen Peltolas Wahlkampfteam an "Früher am Tag forderte Trump, dass Frau Peltola, eine Demokratin, vom Stimmzettel entfernt und strafrechtlich verfolgt wird, ohne zu erklären, welches Verbrechen, falls überhaupt, begangen wurde."

The problem is there is NO crime & no reason for an investigation. Is it a great look no but it's not like the Republicans haven't done this before. Sorry president Baby Boo Hoo - unfair does not equal illegal. Trying to overthrow a free & fair election is. Fuck Trump & Dunleavy. #Alaska #Blues

Weeks ago, the NYT ran a noxious hit piece trying to assassinate Peltola's character (which landed with a thud)had little impact). It is the timing - not substance - of the latest piece that makes it most problematic, since it is effectively impossible for her campaign to respond effectively now 1/

Dunleavy is desperate for Trump’s attention and will do ANYTHING for Trump because he’s a failed governor. I hope the @nytimes.com is really pleased with themselves. Alaska Governor Orders Criminal Investigation Into Peltola Campaign There’s NO law against recruiting candidates #akelect

❇️ Alaska Governor Orders Criminal Investigation Into Peltola Campaign.. Trump had lashed out at Mary Peltola after The NYT reported her campaign & national Democrats helped recruit spoiler candidates to the race. He offered no explanation of what crime may have been committed. ⏬ shorturl.at/1ATdj

“In 2024, the Alaska Republican Party participated in a lawsuit arguing to keep on the ballot a Democratic candidate for the U.S. House who was a federal inmate campaigning from a prison in New York.” In Alaska politics, the moral high ground is nowhere to be found.

Lauren French . . . posted a series of examples of G.O.P. chicanery on X. Her posts included the instance of a super PAC with Republican ties spending hundreds of thousands of dollars in Alaska to prop up Democratic & Green Party candidates in this year’s Senate primary.

If Alaska Governor, Republican Mike Dunleavy, is going to order an investigation into the Senate election because of the Times reporting yesterday on the Peltola campaign, I expect the newspaper to tell me what he has said regarding the Big Lie in 2020 Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

At least Watergate was a break-in by a bunch of hapless crooks. Now the largest threat is "they found a guy with a similar name?" 🤣 www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Alaska Governor Orders Criminal Investigation Into Peltola Campaign www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u... Republican thugs and Trump have done things 10 times as bad this is a molehill compared to the corruption in the Republican Party, led by their mobster in chief pedophile president Trump 

"...the Alaska Supreme Court ruled that nothing in state law nor in the U.S. Constitution allowed it to rule on the motives of a candidate." At least we know what Trump's motives are: grift, cheat, lie.

The Alaskan governor is calling for an investigation into the Peltola campaign. NY Times this morning. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

They've been hard at work helping Republicans in AK. This dude Browning smugly cites his own article and claims credit for Gov. Dunleavy opening an investigation into the Peltola campaign: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Repubs can dish it out but can't take it. The thin-skinned felon president is only the most obvious and egregious example of that.

Announcing an investigation right before the election IS ELECTION INTERFERENCE. The criminal here is Trump. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

As an Independent, this deceit, if that's what it's determined to be, bothers me, as do the whataboutism arguments offered in support of the deception. It matters not that GOP has done the same thing. It matters that our elections be unsullied by chicanery. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

The New York Times should write a story about the New York Times’s role in this story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Looks like Alaska Democrats have taken part in very grubby behaviour. Appalling. Alaska Governor Orders Criminal Investigation Into Peltola Campaign www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Prosecuted for what? Unless there were shenanigans with the elections paperwork filing, nothing illegal about it. How about looking into the funding of the Kanye & Dr. Cornel West 2024 presidential campaigns?

#Alaska Gov. Mike #Dunleavy (R) ordered a #criminal-investigation into Mary #Peltola (D)’s #Senate campaign for recruiting a Republican with the same name as incumbent Dan Sullivan to split votes. Legal experts say proving that a crime occurred could be difficult. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Oh FFS Every state with a Dem governor should return the favor and launch 11th-hour invetigations into the bs republicans are pulling in their states. They literally should do this. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Sure, Dunleavy, investigate this time but not when the Alaskan Republicans stacked the ballot with a candidate who ran his campaign from a New York prison in 2024. Trump much?

"He offered no explanation of what crime may have been committed." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Quite literally NOTHING that is being alleged here is a crime in anyway whatsoever. Republicans have engaged in these shady tactics for DECADES, even before the corrupt regime came to power, but like I said - none of that was illegal or a crime. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

No one can seem to point to a specific law that might have been broken. But the investigation serves to highlight an unseemly campaign tactic. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Ballot stacking is not as bad as gerrymandering. Trump & co. are just mad that they didn't think of it first.

We aren't paying for this. I think it an intelligent voter would have no problem with reading the ballot and picking the correct one though. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u... 1We knew this or something similar would happen. Who is Sullivan? Really? In the best interests of the State of Alaska? Petola campaign must have begun to show great possibilities. Well, even though states do not share a role in elections with the Fed. govt...

So a known felon wants to remove someone from a ballot even if there's no law against doing what is alleged? Let's start with keeping known felons off the ballot and prosecuting those that incite riots first. Then we can move on to those that knowingly make false claims about past elections.

Hey #NYTimes! In case you forgot, you're supposed to report the news, not make it.

NEW via @nytimes.com: "#Alaska’s governor ... said he was ordering an investigation into whether Mary #Peltola’s campaign for Sen. should face criminal charges or civil penalties over its role in recruiting candidates to draw votes from the state’s GOP incumbent." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

Well, that took about five minutes to start an investigation into a Democrat. Ten years of non-stop fraud with Trump and still no investigation of him. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

"Earlier in the day, President Trump demanded that Ms. Peltola, a Democrat, be removed from the ballot and prosecuted without explaining what crime, if any, was committed." <--so she's ahead in the polls and must be a good candidate if there's only this? www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...

www.nytimes.com POV: he will enjoy spewing his diapers for days on this. We need to keep throwing back at him ALL HIS CRIMES. Gov Dunleavy is modeling the right thing in investigating & Dems have no choice but to leave her in and hope for the best.

The NYT gloating that it provoked a Republican governor to hassle the Democrat on the eve of election day. NYT taking a page from the GOP playbook. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/28/u...
