Julie Fate Sullivan has generally stayed out of the spotlight while her husband, Sen. Dan Sullivan, has campaigned across Alaska. But in a new video, she steps forward to challenge Mary Peltola over the Democrat’s attacks on the family’s finances.
The dispute centers on stocks associated with family estates following the deaths of Sullivan’s parents. Peltola has used the holdings to criticize the senator; Julie Fate Sullivan says Peltola has misrepresented their origin and calls her a liar in the ad.
For over 32 years, Julie has been by my side through everything. Now, she’s speaking out about the lies Mary Peltola is using in her latest attack ads involving my late parents and our family. pic.twitter.com/Alm7o0c6iy

The ad puts a personal voice behind a dispute that has largely played out as a one-way attack on Sullivan. The video follows the Sullivan campaign’s launch of PeltolaLies.com, a website that disputes at least 10 of Peltola’s claims, including her allegation about stock transactions after Sullivan’s parents died.
Julie Fate Sullivan, the daughter of Alaska Native leaders Hugh “Bud” Fate and Mary Jane Fate, has seldom taken such a public role in her husband’s political fights. Her decision to speak directly to voters adds a new dimension to the contest as Sullivan and Peltola head toward the Nov. 3 election.

The REAL lies are about her pretended non-complicity in the Decoy Dan dirty trick. To say she knew nothing about it is ADMITTING that it is a scum-bag maneuver. So, why didn’t she DENOUNCE Amber Lee and Decoy Dan, with something like, “I refuse to win my elections THAT way. The people of Alaska should know I have fired them and distance myself. Decoy Dan ought to apologize and immediately withdraw.” Of course, that would show her integrity, of which she has none. And her basically useless work as a DC lobbyist was nothing more than a way to keep her in luxury while the DNC worked out their nefarious plans.
Mary Peltoa is a lying sleaze bag. A vote for Mary is a vote for her prime Sponsor, the Alaskan hating Senator Chuck Schumer. Mary’s political base in Alaska is made up freaks, deviants, perverts, misfits, low IQ individuals and those too lazy to work. I am so glad that Mary’s lies are being called out and exposed.
Yep
Two Alaska Native women going at it. Compare credentials:
MP : not well educated.
JS. : Ivy League college education.
.
MP : married 5 times, currently single.
JS. : married once, to Dan S. Sullivan.
.
MP : raised in villages, Bethel.
JS : born and raised in Fairbanks.
.
MP. : Democrat, but claims to be Independent.
JS. : life-long Republican.
.
MP. : claims to be a great fisherperson.
JS. : fished at family fish camp on Yukon River every summer of her life.
.
MP. : a liar, through and through.
JS. : honest to a fault.
.
MP. : below average looks. 3.5.
JS : former beauty queen. 8.5.
Dan S. Sullivan picked a winner. Mary Peltola’s ex-husbands…….no comment.
Give me a break. 3.5 for Mary Peltola?
1.5 on a good hair day.
She’s just good enough for Juakeem Jeffries, who boinks everything in DC.
I learned very early in life that if you have to lie to make your point, you don’t have one.
Me too.
Me three
We’ll see if this particular campaign ad works to change some Peltola voters toward Dan S Sullivan.
Democrat voters do get more emboldened when their candidate’s opponent gets defensive from a personal attack.
My personal opinion is this If you are in a public position like Pastor, pastor wife, pastor children, politicians and politician wives and their children, people will say lots of things about you true or not true. A lot of time is done out of the other’s insecurity, jealousy, or contempt when your colleague is indeed more honest than the one attacking,
You either smartly coyly do what First Lady Nancy Reagan in her response to Americans criticism of her living very extravagantly or looking very luxuriously during a very hard economic period of America’s history when Americans were really financially struggling or you bite the tongue stiffen up the spine and let the lies or criticism ignored.
What Nancy Reagan had done to pushback on the media and journalists criticism of her was on one evening with the correspondence journalists, she arrives in the most hideous second hand getup poking fun at the lies of those media personalities and American people watching. It all ended with a room full of laugher, and endeared Nancy in the public eye.
Sullivan camp is probably starting to really Feel that Alaska is not as Right as it was when he first was elected to US Senate.
Both his, Murkowski, Nicholas Begich days are numbered as long as their R’s.
All the democrats need is a Democrat Governor in Jan 2027. They already will maintain control of both legislature Houses. One of their first order of business will be Term Alaska’s 2 US Senator seats and US House seat. When US Senator Murkowski seat is up for election and US Congressman Nicholas seat is up for election, they’ll flood the race with R and D candidates like they did for this governors race.
You can’t be serious. Alaskans will easily elect any actual conservative. The problem is all these fakes they keep running as conservatives.
You’d better vote for the most conservative candidate offered, or you’re going to get more grief. The take-home lesson, which everybody should have learned by 1968, is:
Pinch your nose and choose the better of the offered evils. Period. Perfection only exists in Heaven, and this planet isn’t heavenly.
Tina,
The only honest thing you said in your typical liberal rhetoric emails is that “Alaska is not as Right as it was…..” Exactly, as we are supposedly represented by our rarely representative legislators, who have been very wrong on numerous occasions, they are self serving, only scream platitudes, and lie like all hell all the time. They rant and rave about their communist policies, showing what these people truly are is “MARXISTS” (no longer democrats, folks!) and RINOs (want to be Marxists) legislators in Juneau, you know the bozo’s who have absolutely no accountability and want to control every aspect of every Alaskan’s life. Confiscate your PFD, then dole out small amounts to their “peasant constituents” each year. You know when these characters are lying, when their damn mouths are open. I rest assured that you, Tina, are one of their low IQ subjects and support their systematic destruction of this state,
It’s only right side voters who see to the demise of their R candidates, while left side voters stay quiet when a dementia President Biden is tripping all over himself and depleted the country’s oil reserve.
All of you guys will have something to do with if Peltola replaces Dan S Sullivan because of you can’t stand behind a your R candidate even when you think he is wrong.
If Peltola unseats him, don’t complain about it, but idiots will complain anyway.
Why DID Dan S Sullivan had to make a social media post about what action he is recommending.
This is a campaign season and only adds tinder wood for fuel.
Iran and Isreal and American Jews are delicate topics that’s growing a division on the right
I would like to see a specific ad from Sullivan about the RCV ballot having Decoy Dan’s name ABOVE the real Dan Sullivan, Incumbent. There are voters who will not be paying close attention or voters who do not know what incumbent means. The ad needs to say something along the lines of “Caution, do not vote for Decoy Dan, period.” Or “Rank Only One, the REAL one i this race” (as opposed to governor’s race Rank All 3 Or Get JKT).
