It Turns Out That Joe Biden Didn't Have
the Worst Response to the Maui Fires

Original Article

Once the death toll is finally tallied and the extent of the damages is assessed, there will be investigations into the Maui wildfires. At least, there should be, due to the revelations that the bureaucrats tasked with managing disasters were absolute garbage at their jobs. The island suffered massive brushfires that killed at least 100 people last week. Over 1,000 people are still missing, and whole communities have been destroyed. The damage currently stands at $6 billion, but that’s subject to change, making this one of the deadliest wildfires in over a century.

Lahaina 2023- The Disaster within the disaster. I live on Maui. Just a few miles up the road from Lahaina. My mailing address is actually Lahaina and until a few weeks ago , I worked for Mick Fleetwood as a Chef at his famous restaurant that burned down on Front Street. I own my own condo here and I’m now the building manger. I’ve owned my own businesses in the past and have survived hurricanes in the Caribbean and wildfires in the Rocky Mountains. My life experience clearly shows me the significant lack of leadership in this situation and it is absolutely astounding in my opinion. If it were not for individual citizens stepping up with the volunteer efforts to bring relief to people with food, clothing, medical assistance and other resources, there would be nothing. Long before the storm I saw this coming and this is a glaring example of what happens to a society that abandons a meritocracy for one of inclusion and good feelings. You add the historic demons of corruption, favoritism and nepotism and you will necessarily have people in positions of leadership that have NO clue as to what it takes to be a leader and if and when called on to lead can do nothing but fail. This is what we have here here on Maui. It was and still is a recipe for a disaster within a disaster. And God help us, now we have Joe Biden who is coming with Jill in a few days to add injury to literal insult. When I see a Maui Police officer I see an adult wearing a Halloween costume. They have all the outward appearance of an officer, but many of them are just wearing a costume. A costume they got because of who they know, blow or genitalia speaking, what’s below, as the ranks here are a stark example of wokeness and inclusion. I’ve often said; “ wait until the crap hits the fan here someday….”. Well the crap has hit the fan here on Maui and get ready,…. because many communities across the country have set themselves up for the same type of disaster within the disaster as Maui did. This situation here is going to get increasingly ugly and difficult over the next several weeks months and even years. Already the tensions between locals and others is getting worse. In many ways, Lahaina and Maui are the canaries in the coal mine as what happens here will happen in other locales. Please help me when I ask all my friends here to pray for a peaceful end to this tragedy here on Maui. It’s long from over and in many ways, it is just beginning. Mahalo! 🤙🤙

The fire was so very suspicious so I gotta wonder... Why did the Governor of Hawaii offer to buy ALL the land rather than help to rebuild? The area would obviously make a nice resort area and these pesky Homeowners would't sell any other way! I thought originally, it was a private enterprise, but the Democrats in charge gotta be as evil as Biden!

Thanks much for that observation, #2. When estimates of the damage are made, I'm sure the governments do not include the livelihoods and future earnings of all the shops and restaurants that have been wiped out. To them it's just a little town that guarantees the existence of FEMA whether those drones do anything to help or not.

Remember those action TV shows set in some tropical paradise where all of the locals know each other and the government leaders are a bunch of corrupt idiots or native simpleton? Well that is what Maui is turning out to be. And like the shows, when the going gets tough, the incompetent government ultimately fails the people die to their need to hold on to power and tradition.

Over 1,000 people are still “missing.” At this point, several days after the fires, aren’t they likely dead?

There is SO MUCH here that was preventable. This is no time for excuses but it seems that is all the people are going to get. The officials in charge of disaster management should be ASHAMED of themselves. #4 describes the response as "ineffective leadership". I believe that ineffective leadership was the goal; they want it to appear that they are taking action to alleviate misery when in reality they have zero care or compassion for those poor people. I wouldn't be surprised to find out at some point that lots of money changed hands in order to prompt such massive incompetence. To say all of this is appalling is a huge understatement. Crimes against the people were committed here, I'm sure. And #2 --- I appreciate the background you supplied and also know I'll be sending up prayers on your behalf. God bless you all.

Police were responding to a routine car accident when Syrian gunman Mohamad Barakat, 37, opened fire on them in a deadly ambush. Barakat was allegedly on his way to a Fargo street fair, evidence suggests, with enough explosives in his car to create a national tragedy,

Former Trump "Fixer" Michael Cohen, one of Donald Trump's former most-prominent lawyers, not only had some harsh words to say about his old boss on Wednesday; he also pre-blasted, as it were, voters who'll support Trump in the 2024 Republican Party presidential primaries. In a word, Cohen said it would be "stupid" for the GOP to nominate Trump. Did I mention that Cohen recently announced he's considering running for Congress in New York — as a Democrat? In other words, I suggest that you read every Cohen comment I quote with that caveat. That way, you won't pull out your hair before you get to the end of the article.

Trump’s Trial Dates

Dates have been proposed for former President Donald Trump’s four criminal trials, and they appear to follow a suspicious pattern. Each of Trump's trials will take place at a crucial point in the GOP primary, guaranteeing it will dominate news coverage of the primary from start to finish. The trials will likely hamstring Trump’s efforts to campaign, and this could undermine his appeal if voters decide the former president is too bogged down to effectively run for a second term. Given the polling and fundraising boosts which Trump has enjoyed after each indictment, however, the trial dates could also push Trump to victory.

White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre got embarrassed on a friendly network discussing the devastation of the island of Maui. Last week, massive brushfires tore through Hawaii, likely caused by damaged electrical wires subjected to high winds from a hurricane off the coast. The blaze killed over 100 people, with the death toll expected to rise. There are at least 1,000 people still unaccounted for as recovery efforts continue. Total damages are $6 billion. It’s one of the deadliest wildfires in a century. The Biden White House is still recovering from the president’s compassionless remarks about the rising death toll.

The American Medical Association (AMA) has suggested that taxpayers should subsidize uterus transplants worth up to $300,000 to help transgender women get pregnant.

But the AMA has been criticized for floating the idea and has been accused of holding an 'activist position'. It argued that trans women's inability to bear children may cause them to experience 'psychological dissonance' which undermines their health and well-being.

During the inferno that devastated part of the island of Maui, wiping entire towns off the map and possibly killing more than a thousand people (once a full assessment can be made), people on Maui begged state officials to allow West Maui stream water to be diverted to fill up reservoirs for firefighting. That request went to M. Kaleo Manuel, Deputy Director of Hawaii's Commission on Water Resource Management, and he delayed approval of that water for five hours - five hours in which the once-contained fire exploded. By the time the approval was received, workers were unable to reach the siphon release so that the water could be diverted.
