Remember back in the halcyon days of 2019 when the Democrats impeached then-President Donald Trump over the dubious claim he offered the president of Ukraine a quid pro quo in which military funding would be exchanged for an investigation of Hunter Biden’s time with Burisma?

Mike Dunleavy, something that usually wouldn’t make news anywhere in the lower 48. However, it comes with a very big string attached: If Dunleavy backs incumbent GOP Sen. Lisa Murkowski in her 2022 re-election bid, that endorsement goes away posthaste.
