Welcome to The Weekly Top 3 — our look at the top 3 things on our mind here at Alaskans for Sustainable Budgets — for the week of July 7, 2025.
This week, our top 3 issues are these: 1) we discuss whether Elon Musk is the new Ross Perot and what that might mean for national politics (2:09); 2) we explore how the One Big Beautiful A will affect the list of issues facing the Alaska legislature (13:13); and 3) we discuss Gov Dunleavy’s call for a special session and how, while it may be a tactical gain in some areas, it is yet another lost opportunity to resolve state fiscal policy (31:25).
The Weekly Top 3 is a regular weekly segment on The Michael Dukes Show. The Show broadcasts on Facebook and YouTubeLive as well as via streaming audio from the Show’s website weekdays from 6–8am. We join Michael weekly in the first hour of Tuesday’s show, from 6:25–7am, for a discussion between the two of us about our three issues.
