The state of Hawaii is the most Democratic, the most "progressive", i.e. the most corrupt, the state with the widest gap between rich and poor, the biggest difference between haves and have-nots.
The political class is so out-of-touch, and they do not care. The "Republicans" are not just RINOs, they are full-on left-wing traitors who vote for every corrupt, big government, anti-family proposal imaginable along with the vast majority of Democrats in the state legislature.
In spite of the decidedly left-wing tilt of the Hawaii state legislature, and the Democratic dominance thorughout the state, Election 2018 was not as bad for the Hawaii GOP. Republicans managed to hold onto all their seats in the State House of Representatives (5 out of 46), and they even gained a state senate seat (one out of 25), while Republicans in California, Oregon, and other states lost more seats!
But here's the big news …
Not only did Republicans do (ever so slight) better than other state Republicans in other states during a so-called "blue wave), but Hawaii's legislators actually rejected a proposal to turn Hawaii into a Sanctuary State!

What is happening here?
The Chairman of the Hawaii House Judiciary Committee made the argument that these issues should be taken care of at the county and city level.
But let's cut the ōpiopio ("crap" in Hawaii). The votes in this hyperdemocratic legislature simply were not there. People do not want "sanctuary state".
Now, Hawaii is surrounded by water. How do illegal aliens break into Hawaii? The vast majority of them are VISA overstays, but those overstays are illegal aliens nonetheless and they are harming native Hawaiians, American citizens who want to work!
Still, how was this accomplished, that a liberal legislature caved and did not advance a terrible bill?
Just like in other deeply-blue states, there is a chapter of the National Federation of Republican Assemblies. Unlike the other state chapters, however, the Hawaiian Islands Republican Assembly fights back and spares no expense or reserve to go after bad lawmakers on both sides of the aisle.
If a Democratic hypermajority legislature could not pass sanctuary state laws at this point, doesn't that bode better for us on the mainland who want to stop this immoral, illegal travesty?
For now, to the Hawaiian Islands Republican Assembly, I say:
CONGRATULATIONS! |
And — can you help us mainlanders out?
