Anchorage Mayor Ethan Berkowitz announced his resignation at Tuesday night’s assembly meeting. Berkowitz, while not in attendance, announced his resignation through a written statement read by his chief of staff.

“It is with profound sadness and humility that I resign as the mayor of the Municipality of Anchorage,” Jason Bockenstedt said on behalf of the mayor, to applause and cheers from those in attendance.

Left-wing Democrat mayor, originally from the Bay Area, outed by his scorned former lover. She also alleges that he posted pictures of his genitalia on underage girl web sites, although this has not yet been substantiated. That's the good news. The bad news is the chairman of the Anchorage Assembly now becomes mayor. Felix Rivera is a hard-core anti-American Marxist who supports BLM and Antifa. Alaska's largest city is in for a rough ride until the next election. Rivera was the subject of a recall process that had just started recently. Living in Anchorage is going to start sucking even more. Glad I moved out to the Matanuska-Susitna Borough in 2004.

Did Anthony Weiner change his name?

[zipper]

He was too cowardly to announce it himself, in person — had his chief of staff do it.

What a weasel.

[lightman]

This is a Dimocrat...at least it was heterosexual.

Alaska Ping!

Hope he’s not as bad as described, don’t have time now to research much.

When are Republicans going to start taking these cities back? They only have themselves to blame for losing them in the first place. I know it’s a fool’s errand but the way things are going you have to take a chance that most people are sick of the mismanagement.

What is it with Rats and exposing their genitalia?

Like Carlos Danger?

Now the Dem ex-mayor can become a presigious panel regular on the network payroll of MSNBC or CNN. Expert on how bad Deplorables and Trump are. Maybe pontificating on ethics matters, too. Good racket.

[Fester Chugabrew]

In what sense is there any good news here, when Alaskans forfeited the principles of self-government to elect perverts?

A decent part of it is the lack of candidates - Republicans tend to work real jobs that can't let you disappear for four years or two years or whatever. Dems tend to already be in government jobs, on welfare, or other situations where it's much easier to just drop it and run for Mayor/etc.

If you ever get bored, try finding some older election results, and go through all the downticket races. How many have an unopposed Repub? Compared to an unopposed Dem?

” Matanuska-Susitna Borough in 2004.”

The TV show Alaska State Troopers portrays that area as the Alaska meth head capitol.

Berkowitz’s wife, Dr. Mara Kimmel.

41? Never get involved with crazy....

If the GOP can’t win a mayoral race in Alaska, where else can they?
The list of GOP mayors of major cities nationwide must be even shorter than the list of championships won by any Buffalo team.

[rktman]

They said "chief of 'staff'". 😅😅😅

[JohnBrowdie]

there just has to be much, much more to this story. this is some serious Alaska crazy.

one of the problems is that no one in anchorage can seem to write a coherent sentence, and it’s impossible to tell who the crazy-but-hot reporter was sleeping with; the mayor (what’s a consensual texting relationship?) or the station manager that had her arrested.

[sauropod]

I’ll tell you what. That website is horribly put together.

When does the next election for mayor happen for Anchorage?

I suppose this isn’t going to make the mask mandate for Anchorage go away.....

[sasquatch]

Are you sure?
