“I’m not insulted by blonde jokes. I know I’m not dumb… and I know I’m not a blonde.” Dolly Parton

Turn off the water. Block the roads. Don’t sound an alarm. Don’t send in the Marines. And keep the press away.
It doesn’t sound like a formula for success, but that’s how officials played it in Lahaina, the historic Hawaiian town that burned to the ground last week.
A hundred and fifteen dead. A thousand missing.
“No Comment Joe” finally visited.
And the mayor of the town had hurt feelings. A reporter had the gall to ask him for a number for the children who disappeared.
“It always takes one or two to ruin it for everybody,” Mayor Richard Bissen groused, then said the press conference was over.
Nick Sortor, one of the reporters who “ruined it for everybody,” said that he was harassed and stalked constantly in Maui, in addition to receiving death threats.
The level of indifference is shocking, but expected when it comes to Democrats. For them, it’s just Tuesday.
Joe and Dr. Jill were there, jetting over and setting down for about an hour before heading back to the second of their back-to-back vacations, from Rehoboth beach, to the Lake Tahoe $18-million-dollar mansion of billionaire Tom Steyer.
Unfortunately Joe is your typical “Typhoid Mary,” destroying everything he touches.
Mary made her living most often as a cook. People around her dropped like flies wherever she worked.
When New York’s Department of Health engineer George Soper discovered Mary was the Typhoid carrier, she was sent into isolation on North Brother Island, in the Hudson River.
When released, it was on the condition that she never work as a cook again. But, like Joe, she kept doing what she always did, heedless of others.
And in the end, Mary, like Joe, was responsible for tragedy, 51 cases of Typhoid, and three deaths, although she herself was immune to the typhoid bacillus.
Today Joe is destroying everything with his boorish insensitivity, and his love of the almighty buck.
After he allowed a Chinese weather balloon to crisscross the U.S., our weather have turned inexplicably violent. Joe created Climate Change.
With China’s help.
California is drowning in mud.
Temperatures nationwide are in the triple digits.
Wildfires, fueled by high winds burn unabated, polluting the air.
And Democrats love it.
This is the fundamental transformation of the United States that Obama promised, and Joe is delivering.
It is accomplished with disease;
With wind mills that kill whales;
And by confiscating land. A perverse “Eminent Domain,” constructively seizing the lands of Americans, to give illegal immigrants a place to live.
And not at fair market value.
There will be those who defend Joe.
They’ll say our accusations are merely “conspiracy theories.”
But make no mistake, there are some very scary things happening in Hawaii.
In aerial photos, you can see a distinct line where the fires stop, just short of elite mansions.
Herman Andaya, the man in charge of the Emergency Management Agency, resigned after he defended not using the island’s siren system.
And Maui police chief, John Pelletier, the man who ordered evacuation roads to be closed, was insulted when reporters asked why roads were closed, focusing instead on notifying families.
“Give us a little bit of time,” he snarled. “We’ve got to go make 89 notifications.
“The remains we’re finding is through a fire that melted metal.”
Like one of Joe’s stories, the response doesn’t pass the smell test.
As for the survivors, they’ve been handed checks for $700.
As for their lost homes, it’s reported that contractors have approached them with offers to buy their land.
There have been rumors that this land had long been coveted, for “15 Minute Homes.”
These are communities where you don’t have to leave home, for anything because everything is “15 minutes” away. If that sounds creepy, it is.
And even though there is a video with Hawaii Gov. Josh Green saying he wants the state to acquire land destroyed in the Maui wildfire, so that it can turn the town of Lahaina into a “smart city,” Democrats deny he said it.
If that sounds creepy, it is.
Hold the line, America.
Stay strong, Patriots.
