We value aloha
The police have been wonderful and we will provide courtesy communication to them and the public if we do anything outside our regular Saturday rally. We really do value aloha.
To not question having our freedoms taken away is to dishonor the millions who fought and died for it. This is not a communist country.
May God bless these beautiful islands with peace, connection and an inner knowing that we are always kept safe in the body he gave us.

Thank you, Mr. President
Win, lose or fraud — President Trump, I just want to say thank you for the last four years.
Thank you for making it cool to be an American again.
Thank you for showing us that we don’t need to be under China’s thumb anymore economically, or any other way.
Thank you for one of the strongest economies we’ve ever experienced in my lifetime. Thank you for all you have done for the minority communities, and the outstanding decrease in the unemployment rate you had.
Thank you for making it feel good to love our country and to be a proud patriot again. Thank you for supporting our nation’s flag and the men and women who fought for the freedom that stands behind that flag.
Thank you for supporting our nation’s law enforcement organizations, and understanding how difficult their job really is.
Thank you for quelling the flood of illegal immigration, and bringing to justice the thousands of criminals that flood brought us.
Thank you for giving corporations a reason to come back to America to make our own products and put Americans back to work.
Thank you for bringing our troops home from endless deployments that presented us with little more than body bags; and for your commitment to strengthen our military.
Thank you for Operation Warp Speed and keeping your promise in bringing the COVID-19 vaccine to us in less than a year.
Thank you for your never-ending attempts at bringing peace to the Middle East and your support for Israel.
Thank you for your tax relief, and thank you for our energy independence. Most of all though — thank you for taking a damn rotten job that you never had to take.
Thank you for caring enough for this country to want to try and make a difference.
Thank you for showing America how little career politicians actually work for their constituents; and for showing us how much those politicians despise you for showing America how easy it is to build a great nation, rather than rape her to line their own pockets and stock portfolios.
Thank you for allowing us to experience a president that wasn’t a lifelong politician, but a lifelong American.
Thank you, Mr. President.

Mahalo for coverage
Thank you Chelsea Jensen for your report about the planned demonstration at Safeway. It was outstanding and very informative to know that even Dr. Green responded to this group that feels they are more knowledgeable than scientists and doctors. The only reason Hawaii’s numbers are lower than in any other state is because we started restrictions early and people have been observant of the rules. Fringe groups like that should really be ignored and not given any publicity. Comparing COVID-19 outbreaks to the flu and deaths of heart disease and cancer is totally irrelevant and unsubstantiated.

Will mob’s cry echo?
Inquiring minds might ask if the Trumper mob cry of “Hang Mike Pence” will echo through the years like “Give us Barabas” has?
