Two Dan Sullivans, One Big Hypocrisy
Podcast: The John Fugelsang PodcastRating: Explicit Published On: Thu Oct 29 2026
Description: Today, John talks about Alaska, where Donald Trump is threatening to prosecute Democrat Mary Peltola over allegations involving candidates with similar names—before voters have even finished casting their ballots. He examines the history of “spoiler” candidates, the double standard in Republican claims of election fraud, and why Alaskans deserve to choose their own senator without political interference. He also raises questions about the state’s energy future, Russian interests, and the stakes for Alaska’s Indigenous communities and lands. Then, legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson joins John to discuss the Alaska case, the 2000 Florida ballot controversy, and whether prosecutors can express empathy for sexual assault survivors without compromising impartiality. They also talk about daylight saving time, Israel’s election and Netanyahu’s coalition troubles, Brazil’s election-denying Bolsonaro family, and DoorDash’s proposed acquisition of Instacart. Then, Tennessee State Senator Charlayne Oliver discusses her lawsuit challenging Republican retaliation after she protested the dismantling of Black political representation in Memphis. She explains why her vote went unrecorded, what she hopes the court will restore, and why young people should keep speaking truth to power.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
