If this was Trump or any other Republican, the Credentialed Media would have destroyed him for all the no comment stuff (he did that multiple times), for saying he’s not going there (which is actually wise policy, presidents should almost always avoid disaster areas to not create a circus, but, really, Biden just doesn’t care, which shows with him being on vacation), and for this
(UK Daily Mail) Joe Biden on Tuesday appeared to forget the name Maui, referring to the island in a speech in Milwaukee as ‘the one where you see on television all the time.’
As the death toll rose to 106 as rescuers combed the rubble in Lahaina, Hawaii, the president told the crowd that there were still fires on the Big Island – also known as Hawaii.
He pointed out the fires were blazing on the Big Island, not Maui, but appeared to struggle to name Maui.
‘The Army helicopters helped fire suppression efforts on the Big Island because there’s still some burning on the Big Island — not the one that, not the one where you see on television all the time,’ he said.
And the speech was really about Bidenomics on the anniversary of the Inflation Reduction Act which wasn’t about reducing inflation. Did they not properly put the minimal info about the disaster on the teleprompter? Is Biden unable to read it correctly? The media would annihilate Trump if he did this, and the opinion section would be calling for a mental faculties examination.

(Washington Post) At 10:47 p.m. last Monday, a security camera at the Maui Bird Conservation Center captured a bright flash in the woods, illuminating the trees swaying in the wind. “I think that is when a tree is falling on a power line,” says Jennifer Pribble, a senior research coordinator at the center, in a video posted on Instagram.
“The power goes out, our generator kicks in, the camera comes back online, and then the forest is on fire.”
At that exact moment, 10 sensors in Makawao, a small, rural town in the East Maui region of Upcountry — where the Conservation Center is located — recorded a significant incident in Hawaiian Electric’s grid, according to data from Whisker Labs, a company that uses an advanced sensor network to monitor grids across the United States. The bright light in the video was probably an “arc flash,” something that happens when a power line “faults” — meaning it has come in contact with vegetation or another line, or gets knocked down, releasing power, usually through sparks, according to a Whisker Labs official and other experts.
It’s correlated, not confirmed, but, it would not be a surprise. And people are wonder why the power was not shut off to the area with all those high winds.
