Mitch and Lindsey desperately need Murkowski to keep the Biden agenda going

Alaska Republicans are calling on the Kentucky GOP to formally censure Sen. Mitch McConnell for the bluegrass senator’s interference in the Alaskan Senate contest against the party-endorsed candidate.
On Thursday, the Alaskan Republican Party’s District 9 central committee passed a resolution to condemn the Senate minority leader’s spending on behalf of Sen. Lisa Murkowski. The incumbent senator running for a fourth full term in the upper chamber is locked in a tight contest against Donald Trump-backed challenger Kelly Tshibaka, who is also endorsed by the Alaskan Republican Party.
McConnell’s super PAC to reclaim the majority, the Senate Leadership Fund, is spending heavily in the race between two Republicans, which the latest polls show is a tied match. According to the Anchorage Daily News, McConnell’s political operation has poured more than $7 million into the Alaskan contest instead of using that money towards ripe pick-up opportunities in Nevada and Arizona.
“We request the Senate Leadership Fund immediately stop the attack ads against Kelly Tshibaka and discontinue all support of Senator Murkowski,” District 9 Republicans demanded. Their resolution went on to demand Kentucky GOP leadership censure their senator for meddling in Alaska’s party affairs while the minority leader abandons efforts at capturing the majority.
“We request the Republican Party of Kentucky leadership act against Senator Mitch McConnell for his inappropriate behavior against Alaska Republicans and Republican endorsed candidate Kelly Tshibaka,” the Alaska Republicans wrote.
Alaska’s District 9 committee based in Anchorage is the second state party group to admonish the Kentucky lawmaker’s interference, according to Must Read Alaska columnist Suzanne Downing.
“The first was District 6, a Homer-area subdivision of the Alaska GOP,” Downing wrote.
In September, McConnell’s PAC reinjected money into the Alaska Senate contest after initially canceling $1.7 million alongside $8 million stripped from Republican Arizona Senate nominee Blake Masters. McConnell later pulled another $10 million from the Arizona race, leaving the Republican candidate abandoned by the primary super PAC charged with reclaiming the upper chamber.
Both Masters and Tshibaka have pledged not to support McConnell for another term in GOP leadership.
The decision to spend scarce resources on an ally in Alaska instead of a tight race in Arizona to bring down a Democrat incumbent drew criticism from former President Donald Trump on Monday.
“Kelly Tshibaka is doing very well in Alaska, probably leading horrendously bad Senator Lisa Murkowski, a Republican (barely!),” Trump wrote.
According to the latest aggregate of surveys from RealClearPolitics, which are often manipulated to fit pre-determined narratives, the Arizona Senate race remains a five-point race.
This makes me very happy!
“Both Masters and Tshibaka have pledged not to support McConnell for another term in GOP leadership.”
Two patriots willing to do what Kentucky voters and senate RINOs are unwilling to do.
Nice to see Mitch is making new friends, hope he gets it stuck up his backside.
They are spending a LOT of money to save the Murk. The local Post Office lobby is littered with pro-Murk and anti-Tshibaka flyers because our PO Boxes are stuffed with them almost every day.
doesn’t matter...he’s 80 now and has 5 years left on this term
He’s always causing trouble somebody get a real leader already
Which is why he is interfering in the GOP march to freedom.

solid, non-stop TV and Interads paid for by Mithc with a pack of lies - this ah**hole is all in for Lisa MurKowSki.
The US has the best government money can buy....
This is the fight the GOP needs, to save itself.
The Rats never will save themselves.
You’d think that if the donors to the SLF wanted a republican majority, they would tell Mitch what to do. For all this Mitch wants loyalty crap it’s never the Trumper or tea party guys that screw with him, the cruzs, Pauls and Lees always support the republican postion. It’s the cow, Collins and mitts that mess with judges and that is what is so dear to Mitch.
Mitch McConnell, Senator of the CCP...not Kentucky.
I’m gonna repeat the same thing I’ve been saying for a while now: KY conservative Republicans should vote for his Democrat opponent when he runs again in 2026. He has to go. I don’t think he can be defeated in the primary.
The things I discover on FR.
I used to donate to the Senate Republican Campaign Committee until I found out it wasn’t supporting all Republican candidates, especially if the candidates were MAGA candidates.
Apparently McConnell has the authority to steer the moeny wherever and to whomever he wants.
