AK-AL: On U.S. House candidate's (R) disclosure form, successful investments and a conspiratorial publisher
Republican U.S. House candidate Nick Begich III is a millionaire, a successful businessman, and co-owner of a company that has produced books promoting discredited conspiracy theories.
According to a personal financial disclosure form published at the end of September, Begich holds a 17% share of Earthpulse Press, a company founded by his father, known both as Nick Begich II and Nick Begich Sr.
Speaking before a debate in Kodiak, Begich III said he has that share because he “wrote a check” to support his father, and state business laws require that a company have at least two board members.
A past resume listed Begich III as a project manager who improved the company’s since-deactivated storefront, but Begich III said he doesn’t now participate in the company’s operations and is a passive shareholder.
His father agreed with that assessment by phone.
