SHUT DOWN and keep these lines shut down. US Navy hasnʻt cared about their employees to date, why would they start now? #shutdownredhill #nomoreleases

Following the textbooks in Texas? You should be.. because those textbooks end up going to a lot of other statesʻ schools. We learned this early in NCLB and all the test-driven textbooks. BEWARE

This is the way.. this local company. Now what are the big corporations who siphon the $$ back to their pockets doing to help the people of Hawaii, their employees? Do you know?

This should not have to be said...our challenges are not part of your "vacation photos". Do better. Folks working to help, especially before the next storm shouldnʻt have to spend time telling you to get out of places you should not be. #hawaii #tourists #yourvacationisourhome

This is not new, sadly. Look who creates textbooks and where they are sold. Often it depends on the " $$ʻ possible. Which is why a textbook in Hawaii had errors some years ago but the publisher did not fix because it was not feasible. :(

Kentucky doesn’t exist anymore. Neither does Arizona, Louisiana, or Saturn. A school agenda renamed the entire map & periodic table, & it reached a kids’ backpacks. What that says about who’s supposed to be checking will make you furious. thejenniwren.substack.com/p/venecky-do...

People visiting Hawaii complaining about closures due to the Hurricane. No patience for businesses not open or trying to stay open with less staff. A good day to remind everyone "your paradise vacation is someʻs home".

On 8/15, Mālama Mākua hosted a cultural access specifically for lineal descendants of Mākua into the Valley. This on the westside of Oahu Island. If you have a chance, try to view the film about Makua Valley today. Still needs to be cleared, even if the military leaves.

This is the first time in our organization’s history -& possibly the first time since the US Military evicted the valley’s residents back in 1941 - that this many lineal descendants have been together in the valley at the same time.

Interesting event in Hawaii primary election. In two contests, both GOP there were ties. Today there was a drawing to choose the winner. Just sharing

Just a reminder... Hurricane Lala is now sitting outside the ISLAND OF HAWAII. Itʻs name is not BIG. Important to use the correct names always. BIG is used as a convenience for those who are more than capable of using the correct name. Mahalo.

You may have been here.. and a reminder "your paradise" will be struggling over the next days with power outages and everything that comes with a big storm. Be patient folks

Rainbow Falls is going OFF. Mahalo again to Jon Hanley. #Hawaii #HurricaneLala

Vote on motion to DENY recommendation for a public auction to give a license to Mahi Pono: UNANIMOUS VOTE TO DENY THE PUBLIC AUCTION/WATER LICENSE. We win.

This ! If they werenʻt on the agenda.. how they get a right?

Calvert Chipchase, Mahi Pono attorney, files motion for contested case!! If the Board accepts, no vote will be taken. But...how do they have standing? You need to have been denied a right, to be entitled to a contested case...

So a person moves to Hawaii in May, runs for elected office and uses an AI ad. On it there is one of the most honored Hawaiian women in recent history.. and he says he doesnʻt know her..... true or false? I call bulls@#%t

With Spain offering a potential alternative location for the Thirty Meter Telescope, we acknowledge that not everyone in La Palma supports bringing the project there. We do not advocate for the TMT to go there; our message remains: Honor Mauna Kea Protect Mauna Kea NO TMT on Mauna Kea

Mauna Kea is a place of deep connection, where culture, ancestry, and spirituality come together. These are only some of the many reasons Mauna Kea matters and why we carry the kuleana to protect and mālama this sacred mountain for future generations. What does Mauna Kea mean to you?

If you are in Honolulu tomorrow, this is the place to be. Learn the history of July 4 from a Kanaka Maoli view. Bring your Hae Hawaii and join us.
