Yes, why does this surprise you?

The Empire views its own citizens as at most a resource to be exploited, and otherwise as an inconvenience to be grudgingly tolerated.

Why shouldn't he screw the Hawaiians. They vote overwhelmingly for the "D"s anyway, so Biden and the "D"s get their votes no matter what. But the Ukrainians share their wealth from us with politicians with both parties, but especially the "D"s.

When will the people who continually vote for the donkeys realize what a poor return on their investment this nets them?

By the state of Chicago, East St. Louis, San Francisco and Detroit, my guess would be "never".

LOL $700. How long is that supposed to last, exactly? A day? Two? A week, MAYBE?

SimulationCommander: My son lived on Maui for twenty years and worked in Lahaina. $700 wouldn't last him two weeks. And my son was a very frugal person on Maui. He had to be.

Well, most likely the residents of Maui including the dead voted for biden. So they are getting what they wanted. Like my cousin said speaking about obama, "I think he's a good president".

Stolen elections have consequences.

He might as well have spit in their faces.

As they say, "Money talks." In this instance, the allocation of money says a lot.

Maybe they can find a few Russians in Maui, then the neocons will send $billions to stop them

Mike Menzie: "The Mouse that Roared" great film.

As I wrote above. Hawaii or even Maui alone, should secede, declare war on the uSA, and then surrender. The incoming money and assets from DC would be in the billions.

As most of the elected politicians in DC, with Biden at the forefront, demonstrate on a daily basis, any idiot can spend other people's money; no intellect/talent required.

It all works until the money runs out and hyperinflation sets in. The American political class are thieves, grifters, con artists and very very stupid. It is a kakistocracy, rule by the very worst people.

A kakastocracy, rule by shites.

He doesn't care because the state will vote for him anyway, same with all blue states, the Ds can neglect and abuse them all they like. NYC overwhelmed with migrants? Throw a few bucks and look away. California covered with feces? Wear a mask.

Biden says, we are "lasered focused" . Interesting choice of words.

Cathleen: Good catch on "lasered focused".

Come on, you creepy Congressional cowards! Force the Ukraine stimulus to survive or die on its own! Force a floor vote on each of these separately! We don't need to tie these together, since they don't have any logical connection.

It you idiots can't stop the log-rolling, then I propose giving you some REAL logs as you try to roll them in the water in front of the Washington Momument.

Kevin Beck: That is a witty comment. I would pay to watch senators and congressmen doing real log-rolling on the reflection pond on the mall.

I love a good log-rolling contest! Especially when there are plenty of old and enfeebled politicians involved. The more, the merrier!

Is this the totality of the aid? Seems like a bribe to stop them from talking about his “no comment” insult. Notice how quickly that local Dem politician took back his complaint about it.

I honestly think this is done on purpose. They want to see how far they can go before we uprise

'Laser focused,' hmm . . . . sounds like a tell.

“These people” will be screwed if their security detail calls in sick 😉!

Chemical Fire Caused? Explains multiple fires at the same time. Explains why burn pattern was very rectangular. Explains white and black smoke of the reactive agents. Explains burning boats and is hot enough to burn the paint, tires and windshields off of cars. A chemical fire can be easily recreated. Grass burns at 500 degrees fahrenheit, tires need at least 750 degrees to burn and glass needs 2500 .Were chemicals dropped on Lahaina from helicopters or drones?
