It's always exciting when you find your new book on your front porch.#truckstopearth.

@RepVance Rep. Vance has used her office to intimidate the free press. This is not normal and it is not how a constitutional republic should work.

[Michael Armstrong @maaarmstrang]

@ANC_Historian This is hysterical!

@JoeBiden I’m a prostate cancer survivor. We PC warriors have your back and wish you courage, strength, and perseverance in your struggle.

So I was browsing the https://t.co/Jy6sTAT54K website and just for fun looked to see if @elonmusk had any unclaimed funds. Huh. He has a few bucks coming from Tesla and Meta. You’re welcome. Please send my finder’s fee to: https://t.co/QPABb22kb2

@TrumpVictorious @acnewsitics Uh, there’s a website from the SSA showing this.

@MarioDB I am sorry for your loss. I attended New College with Lincoln and remember him for his eloquence, intelligence, and passion. As the first New College graduate elected to the U.S. Congress he brought honor and distinction to the college.

@chrisvanderveen @FoxNews I was a reporter and editor of a weekly newspaper in a small town in Alaska. We’d get News tips about three cop cars that pulled over someone. One time about a dozen feds in black SUVs raided a restaurant on the main drag of the tourist area. Of course we investigated.

@NewsFromGoogle It has been the State of Alaska policy since 1975 that North America’s tallest mountain is named Denali. In Alaska we use Denali and we will use it despite Trump. I sure hope tourists don’t get lost.

@JeffLandfield It seems appropriate for the first president entering office who’s a convicted felon.

@Debalap @TRyanGregory Canada also is a NATO country.

@robertcrais I was thinking of you and LA. Stay safe.

@RepHDrummondAK @MattTunseth Begich III should talk to some Florida Republicans about why they don’t want offshore oil drilling. They’re secretly thanking Biden.

[Michael Armstrong @maaarmstrang]

You know you’ve made it when your book is in the AARP Magazine. Congratulations, @robertcrais .

@ANC_Historian But were they filmed in Alaska?

@jameslaura86 @DocStass When I had my big cardiac adventure and flatlined in the ER, I woke up to an ER doc about to give me CPR. He didn’t perform CPR but he was seconds from doing so.

@sunfartphotos @mickey_keith @adndotcom The city council didn’t pick a name. They put a vote before the people asking them if the name should be changed back from Barrow to its Indigenous name of Utqiagvik. They asked elders what that name was.

[Michael Armstrong @maaarmstrang]

@sunfartphotos @mickey_keith @adndotcom In John Murdoch’s 1887-88 report on the Point Barrow Expedition he discusses the various Indigenous names for Utqiagvik. He learned those by, uh, asking the people who lived there.
