I have to wonder, why is this not bigger news? 850 Americans still missing? Why is news about Maui such low priority? Is it because Biden had no interest in visiting? Kinda like how the East Palestine train derailment was minimized after a few days?
850 people are still missing after Maui wildfires, mayor says
As of Monday morning, 850 people are still listed as missing after the the deadly Lahaina wildfire, Hawaii officials said, citing data compiled by the FBI and local authorities. In a video posted on social media, Maui County Mayor Richard Bissen said 114 people have been confirmed dead, 27 have been identified and 11 families have been notified.
Bissen said while more than 800 people are still missing, that list once contained 2,000 names. “To the tireless work of the FBI and the Maui Police Department, 1,285 individuals have been located safe,” he said. “We are both saddened and relieved about these numbers as we continue the recovery process.”
Bissen said there will be daily fluctuation to these numbers, and he urged those with immediate family members who are missing after the fires to provide DNA samples to help assist in the identification process. A Family Assistance Center has been set up at the Hyatt Regency Ka’anapali on Nohea Kai Drive for local people to provide those samples.
The mayor is not happy having to answer questions, though

How dare anyone ask him a question! Why is it so difficult for elected and other public employees to answer questions these days?
Cheap shots by the local um… “media”.
Typical.
Some rightwing conspiracies say this is too force rural people to move into “smart cities where they can have more of their freedoms more easily restricted
While allowing global elites to buy up ocean property cheap.
Is it possible that this hard to put out fire started when an EV exploded?
Perhaps spaced based lasers owned by Jewish bankers? That was trending on right wing websites after the Cali fires
Johnny-it was definitely the spaced based lasers by Jewish bankers..good catch
My dear H you’re looney tunes are getting more and more interesting.
I can tell you as a firefighter and as a firefighter who has been specifically trained to put out EV fires they are very hard to put out. They burn extremely hot. We need a special foam.
You’ll be happy to know that the phone is a carcinogen so it puts the firefighters in personal danger of their health. That usually puts a smile on the face of the leftist to know that working men usually conservatives doing dangerous work are in danger. Cause you fagots on the left certainly aren’t gonna rush into a fire I’ll tell you that much. I’ve been a firefighter for over 20 years and I ain’t met a liberal yet.
Where’s Brandon?
This is what happens with democrats run the show.
