Governor Josh Green, while pushing the climate change narrative on news show Face the Nation, said that King Kamehameha Elementary school burned to the ground. He said that 650 students attended the school. How many are accounted for?
Residents of the scarred island told me that everything on the news is a lie. The mayor of Maui, Richard Bissen, said that 850 people are still missing. The same day the governor said 1,100 are missing. If they actually know how many are missing, then they must know who is not. Where are the children of Lahaina?
The truth is they have no idea how many people are missing because there is no way to gauge how many tourists were in Lahaina when the fire swept through. And in 2022, according to the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Hawaii had the fourth highest homeless rate in the nation and most of them, I am told, were in Lahaina.
Bissen was asked by reporters ten days after the disaster how many children were missing. He responded: “I don’t know.” When pushed by increasingly angry reporters he said he’d tell them if he knew. He knows or has a good idea. His body language says so.
It is now common knowledge that the schools were closed that day and children were either home alone or with grandparents since their parents were all at work.
We have all seen the hundreds of burned-up cars lining the single road in and out of Lahaina, yet the politicians claim that only 111 people have died. So where are all the elementary-aged kids? The inept mayor doesn’t want people to know.
We are told that cars melted in the heat in the 2000-degree heat. A body is cremated at between 1400-1600 degrees.

It’s a good reminder of the power of nature.
I pray for the children who were killed in such a horrible way all because the dems have no compassion for anyone but themselves. I think everyone knows where those 650 children are, dead. I wanted to absolutely VOMIT when I heard “Pedo-Joe” bloviate about himself again.
How could they not know how many tourists were on the island? Check plane records of entry for a start. Hotel records are burned up but how can they not know if a hotel was full capacity or not in August? AAAs in some US city booked some of those tourists. Put the pieces together when families file insurance claims and death notices.
I fear they’ll bury this just like so many other tragedies of inept government workers who are guilty.
They didn’t have the info beforehand, because it was an entirely natural event [koff koff], but before meeting the press (and after even one day of the events) the nitwit should have found out what the best numbers were. He should resign or be removed.
They didn’t set off the sirens to warn people.
They purposely kept the water shut off.
Why aren’t they arrested for mass murder?
I recall the Welsh mudslide, coal slag destroyed the school. Hardly a family went unscathed. A couple of kids who weren’t in school because of illness was all that was left of the young children.
After reading this article and thread of comments, I realize that no one has the answer. Which in my mind makes me think that many many more people and children have perished.
They have the number over a thousand now. This article must have been written days ago.
I thought of that, as well.
Another F-Up courtesy of government.
There’s no accountability from Hawaii DOE, never was or will ever be
For certain the residences numbers are very different than the official count.
The elected DEMOCRAT officials in Hawaii are great, when they don’t have to do anything.
It’s going to take months until they get an accurate account if ever.
Trust in the government is so low, whatever the count it will not be believed.
That’s true.
Now that you mention it... that’s an intriguing idea...
is this a verifiable source?
