Steve Bannon just released a powerful film about Alaska’s history,
our rich resources, and a committed team’s successful effort to tackle
political corruption. Bannon’s independently financed, produced, and
directed film called “The Undefeated” is now available on cable via
pay-per-view and video-on-demand. I’m thankful for Bannon’s group at
Victory Films for independently putting their own time and resources
into documenting the work my team in Alaska did in successfully fighting
corruption and enacting real reform that put local and state government
back on the side of the people. Thank you to the good Alaskans who
participated in the film and spoke so passionately about our state’s
history, our natural resources, and our destiny as the energy
contributor for America’s security.
Bannon’s film shows
how on a state and local level all citizens – no matter background or
party affiliation – can come together to fight the special interests and
the corrupt powers-that-be that steal power from the people. Through
examples of putting government-run businesses back into the private
sector hands, inviting competition, reducing taxes, and blowing the
doors open to force government transparency, “The Undefeated” shows that
though real reform is difficult and real reformers are vilified, it is
possible. The obstacles in the way of reform are why true reform is so
rare, but as the film shows, it can be done and it is worth doing.
This film is not about any one person.
It’s about great American values – like our indomitable optimistic
pioneering spirit – that will always see America through no matter how
tough times are. It’s the spirit of our Last Frontier, it’s the story of
how Alaskans fought corruption and won, it’s the story of the spirit of
the Tea Party Movement, and it’s the story of a people’s movement for
reform. I’m grateful to these filmmakers for telling the story.
Here’s more about Steve Bannon’s film and where to view it. I encourage you to watch it. I promise you it will open some eyes.
