Have we found the missing kids yet?

Some were found living in East Palestine, Ohio and some are living in the Mandalay Bay hotel in Las Vegas. That’s why you haven’t heard anything.

Yes, the lots were worth 500-700K. However, a lot of those “houses” in Lahina were literally tin roof shacks. They could be rebuilt for $15-35K. About the same price as it costs to build a garage.

A lot of the older houses had no insulation. No heat. No AC. Corrugated metal roofs.

NY, CA, NJ, MI, MA, IL all NEED those illegal immigrants. If not, they are going to lose Congress critters and Electoral votes.

Meanwhile, states like FL, TX, SC, ID, AZ are all gaining population.

Hawaii is 100% one party rule. Democrats. There is not any chance of the Dems losing control of HI.

Maybe the businesses in Maui that employ these people need to build a dormitory for them to live in. This is what a lot of resorts here in New England have to do. Then they bring in kids from other places on work visas to change the sheets and run the ski lifts.

Fly to Mexico, walk across the border, get a new ID, get a ticket to Mauai, move back to Lahaina, demand FEMA builds new houses for you as an illegal alien, profit.

Sorry Lahaina. You have proven constant votes for democrats and will still vote for democrats. Even if you don’t, the rest of your state will. Democrats don’t care about you. You are not a “new American.” You are a taxpayer to be exploited to import Biden’s new illegal alien army.

That is true....The thing is...many don't have that money.

Yet..what pisses me off...is we are sending MILLIONS of dollars to other countries. And these folks in HI...got $700 bucks.

And we have uncontrollable ILLEGAL immigration.

This ain't the Country I grew up in..anymore.

My guess is that is the plan.........I'm sure Barry Sotero is behind a lot of this.

Waiting for The Oprah and her millionaire buddies to swoop in and save the day. Oh, wait — maybe they won’t be there to help the locals but to buy up the land to build more mega-houses. Just wondering.

The Uberborg doesn’t want those people to be resettled there; that burnout was to clear a space for worldgov’s SmartCity.
