The West Maui disaster is becoming less about the fire and more about the government’s bizarre response to the aftermath.\u00a0 Independent media sources and some mainstream media sources have confirmed multiple instances<\/a> of the Democrat controlled government’s mismanagement that led to the escalation of the tragedy.\u00a0 The circus included a woke water management bureaucrat<\/a> who believes water is “godlike” and that it must be distributed according to the rules of “equity; the same official withheld vital firefighting resources for a day while Maui burned.\u00a0 The state government has been thoroughly embarrassed, but instead of responding with humility, they have doubled down and gone on the attack.<\/p>\n

The Governor of Hawaii, Josh Green, took a wild swing at independent reporting, telling people not to listen to information from social media and “influencers.”\u00a0 It’s hard to say what his definition of an “influencer” is, only that he is clearly hostile to anyone reporting news outside of the government narrative.\u00a0 Green’s disapproval of media reporting is not limited to alternative journalists, however.\u00a0 It appears that there is now an information blackout being instituted by the state.\u00a0 Corporate journalists are also being denied access to the area of the fire damage path as well as access to any details surrounding the investigation into how the fires may have started.<\/p>\n

This is the Governor of Hawaii, Josh Green basically saying that independent journalism about what is going on in Maui is VERY discouraged & that sources outside of the Government should not be trusted or listened to.<\/p>\n
