Maui Suffers from America-Last Policies

Guest Post by Martin Armstrong

The fires in Maui claimed the lives of at least 99 people. Over a thousand people are still missing as crews rush to identify remains. This was the deadliest wildfire on US soil in over 100 years. There is a lot of speculation and conspiracy theories surrounding the fires, but one proven conspiracy is that the US government is putting America last.

On Sunday, the Federal Emergency Management Agency said it was too soon to calculate the damages, but a low estimate is $6 billion. The President of the United States made sure to address his main priority by sending a $200 million aid package to Ukraine this week.  “Air defense, anti-armor, and munitions will keep the Ukrainian armed forces in the fight to defend their country’s sovereignty, territory, and people,” Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced on Monday as search teams continued to search Maui for any survivors. This is chump change for Ukraine as the White House is seeking hundreds of billions in extra funds.

Joe Biden was spotted on the beaches of Delaware this weekend as Hawaii burned down. He refused to comment on the situation and did not let it interrupt his vacation. Biden finally took to X (formerly Twitter) to address the crisis. “We’re laser-focused on getting aid to survivors, including Critical Needs Assistance: a one-time $700 payment per household offering relief during an unimaginable difficult time. We have the staff on the ground dedicated to helping survivors navigate the registration process.”

So Hawaii received $1.8 million in aid. What is $700 going to do for the people who lost everything and perhaps everyone? In comparison, a foreign nation received $200 million this week. We are witnessing what happens when the government pivots from America-First to America-Last policies.

absolutely disgusting–$700 in Hawaii won’t even get a week of meals and shelter– not that there are any shelters left. Even illegals get more than this.

Time for those “hater” churches and Christian charities to step up as usual and provide aid and care.

The Hawaiians love to vote Communist-Demoncrat; they apparently love the policies and performance of the Communist-Demoncrats; let them fucking choke on it.

It never mattered who Hawaiians would vote for, the greedy corporate hogs had their game plan all set up with the help of the U.S. military, and the many politicians they had bought and paid for.
Hawaii was viewed as a military strong hold, and strategic position in the middle of the Pacific ocean.

And the filthy wealthy hogs seen the profits they could make after stealing the land away from the simple living Hawaiians.
The greedy pigs would go to the State archives office to see who was behind in the new scheme of property taxes that the Hawaiians never having a real good education never learning about these property taxes they supposed to pay on land that was already theirs for centuries.

So the greedy filthy hogs would begin to pay the taxes on the lands that was in arrears, after 7 years, the land became owned by the hogs that were paying those taxes. They would then kick out the original land owners.

Then once voting machines came into being, it was always a guarantee that demonrats get elected all the time.
It’s hard to win a game when everything is stacked against you by the crooked and corrupt scumbags who sit in their cozy chairs in government, and every other office of whatever kind it is.

So… then Democrat ran utopias are failing? I’m shocked, just shocked. I guess Communism/Marxism comes with a few draw backs after all. I mean burning down a small island in the South Pacific is a small price to pay in the name of promoting Global Warming…. Right? “from the ashes a new Phoenix will rise.”

Fake and gay.
Blackrock will finance the acquisition by floating bonds guaranteed by the taxpayers of Hawaii

” On Monday, Hawaiian governor Josh Green announced that his administration was considering acquiring properties in the seaside resort town of Lahaina that had been destroyed by the recent wildfires. He vowed to prevent foreign buyers from swooping in to exploit the tragedy, suggesting the state was better suited to take control of the land. “I’m already thinking of ways for the state to acquire that land so that we can put it into workforce housing, to put it back into families, or make it open spaces in perpetuity as a memorial to the people who were lost,” Green said while standing amongst the rubble.”

Are the Lahaina Fires Fake?

So this cocksucker is going to steal the burned down town from its owners and build the cocoanut version of a 15 minute city? Why do I feel like I’m going to die up to my ankles in smoking brass?

Climate lock downs are coming to a town near you, stock up on gas, food, medicine and defense. Draconian executive orders are already drafted and about to be imposed. CW 2.0 before 2024 I estimate at about a 50% probability. At any rate, its long over due and this my be the spark that lights the fire. Imagine roves of blacks and low life scum burning shit to the ground, raping and pillaging everything in site. Police State Coming in 3-2-1.

Yeah, but the residents of Maui don’t kick back $Billions monthly like Ukraine.
The Maui residents are takers, not givers like the Ukes.

Since the greedy corporate pigs overthrew queen Liliokalani 130 years ago with the help of U.S. Marines, Hawaii has been screwed over and over.
The fascist American military saw Hawaii as a huge strategic military stepping stone to Asia, and the filthy wealthy hogs seen the profits they could make from stealing the land away from the simple minded Hawaiians.

Greed has ruined Hawaii, just like it has ruined the Constitutional Republic of the once United States of America.

The concept of a free Republic, with liberties can only exist in a society that fears God, and believe in the LORD Jesus Christ as Savior and KING.
Corrupt people only destroy what they touch.

Keep voting for Democrats. People need to open their eyes. The Democrats do not work for the People, they are all out for themselves and the great reset agenda. Remember what they say you will own nothing and be happy.

I don’t disagree but do you think voting for republicans would make any difference? They are all on the same team don’t you know?

Well when you consider that most of those Hawaiians are democrats, I have to say, who cares? Screw em, they sold their souls to the communist devil and they get what they deserve… With any luck, all those islands will sink.

Illegal immigrants are getting housed in some of NY finest hotels and fed, and the Maui residents get chump change, and BigGuyJoe’s prayers. $700 will get them one night in a local hotel there. Don’t worry, here comes Blackrock and Berckshire Hathaway to buy up the ashes on (literally a fire sale) top of what will be million dollar pieces of property.
