Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Oprah Winfrey have joined forces to raise money for those affected by the devastating wildfires in Maui, Hawaii.
“We’re honored to announce the People’s Fund of Maui, a fund putting money directly in the pockets of those who were affected by the recent wildfires,” the Moana star tweeted. “As @Oprah and I have seen firsthand, the impacts of these wildfires have been devastating, and we’re here to ensure with 100% guarantee that your donations will go directly into the hands of Lahaina residents. Every adult resident who lives in the affected area and was displaced by the wildfires in Lahaina and Kula is eligible to receive $1200 per month to help them through this period of recovery.

If she does, I think the sheen will fall away like a plastic
body mask. Folks are not happy with what they perceive from
that location, and if even a hint of skullduggery is detected
the firestorm of hate will scorch even her reptilian hide.
Why does she quite literally remind me of an arsonist who volunteers to help the fire department extinguisher the blaze?
Dewayne Johnson: Help out Maui. They didn’t get flooded over when they needed it most. Unlike my Miami Hurricanes when I played for them in the 1990’s and we got washed over by the Tide in the ‘93 Sugar Bowl.
They need the PR Hollywood is dying how will they survive.
How beneficent. 🖕. How about “You get a house and you get a house and you........”. Bye orca.
What’s crazy to me is that I had no idea you could buy almost 1k acres anywhere in Hawaii for 8 million dollars.
When some of my family looked into buying 2 acres with a pre existing home on it in the Mauka side on Kauai, the place was listed at 2 million dollars.
And that place was in “the country” and needed a bunch of work.
I guess being famous pays.
Orprah’s real birth name is “Orpah”.
Orpah is a woman mentioned in the Book of Ruth in the Hebrew Bible. She was from Moab and was the daughter-in-law of Naomi and wife of Chilion.
After the death of her husband, Orpah and her sister-in-law Ruth wished to go to Judea with Naomi. However, Naomi tried to persuade both Ruth and Orpah to return to their people and to their fake “gods.”
Ruth famously chose to remain with Naomi, but Orpah chose to return to her people and her pagan “gods”.
She’s basically an example of a wicked woman who turns her back on G-d.
Later, Orpah is identified as the mother (or perhaps grandmother or even great-grandmother; it’s unclear to me) of the four Philistine giants, one of whom was Goliath.
The Sanhedrin tractate in the Talmud says that she was killed by King David’s general Abishai, the son of Zeruiah, with her own spindle.
Orpah? Who had sex with 100 men and a dog? And pimped young girls to Weinstein? That ‘Orpah’?
They want to help the little brown island people by buying up more of their land
I see you read about her.
Yeah, that one.
Either her mother was an idiot or a pagan. Or both.
Yeh, right after Oprah got dissed for trying to buy up the burned land. She is a total POS.
It’s strange to me that a number of those critters just
happen to own huge tracts of land in that vicinity.
I get kind of a strange take from this also. We’re here to
help...
Remember Reagan’s nine most terrifying words?
We’re from the government, and we’re here to help.
Well, I am your neighbor, and I’m here to help.
I do believe a similar deal went down in the hills around Malibu, where she also has an estate.
That took place quite a while back. Did she pick up some of
that land cheap?
No idea.
Thanks.. me neither.
I love the Book of Ruth! :-)
I didn’t know about the connection to Goliath though. That is very interesting.
