Peltola signs with a deep-pocket defund-the-police group

4

Alaska Rep. Mary Peltola applied for an endorsement from a major defund-the-police group — and she got it.

MoveOn.org said it is proud to endorse Peltola in her quest to return to Congress this November. The money will soon flow into her campaign.

“The state once had a strong, respected presence in Washington, D.C., but today, political gridlock and outmigration are threatening Alaska’s unique way of life,” MoveOn wrote in its endorsement. By once, they may not mean in the past two years but the 49 prior years during Rep. Don Young’s term in office, but the group’s meaning is unclear.

MoveOn is a nonprofit and leftist political action committee formed in 1998 to distract the political world from the sex scandals of President Bill Clinton, it pioneered the use of viral email petitions to prevent his impeachment.

In 2020, it was central to the defund-the-police movement around the country. Peltola, in her request for an endorsement and funding from MoveOn, said her beliefs align with the group’s mission.

“Mary Peltola continues to try to pull the wool over Alaskans’ eyes, but it’s clear to see that she is a member of the hard left, said Nick Begich, the Republican candidate who opposes her. “Mary Peltola sought and received the endorsement of an organization that wants to defund police and leave our southern border wide open. This is radical. This is extreme. This is not what we expect from an Alaska representative. It’s time for Alaska to move on from Mary Peltola.”

  1. Not surprising that she would sign on to that group. The only surprising part is that she ASKED for their support. She would sell her soul to the devil if she thought it would get her reelected. No morals or scruples.

  2. Take away the police in Bethel, Alaska. It will quickly be overcome by drug dealers with illegal immigrant backgrounds. And this what Mary Peltola desires for her already druggie town in the Alaska hitherlands? What a dumb woman.
