WATCH: Native Hawaiian Furious Over Biden Admins Inaction in Maui

The people of Maui and Lahaina have endured much hardship over the past month.

Wildfires ravaged the island, leading to rising death counts and the loss of land.

Many were hopeful that the government would step in to help.

Well, they helped…

They gave the people $700!

Daily Mail covered more on that story:

Joe Biden earned more criticism for being ‘out of touch’ with Americans during his bumpy stop in Maui Monday – including scorn for providing measly $700 assistance checks.

The White House announced that each affected household in Hawaii will receive a $700 check to address ‘immediate needs’ including water, food and clothing.

But it’s a sum that many islanders consider insulting.

Hawaiian residents and politicians say a paltry $700 check to each family impacted by devastating wildfires isn’t going to cut it.

And some residents even held up signs during Biden’s visit Monday comparing assistance to Ukraine and Hawaii.

Biden passed one poster that read: ‘Really $7?’ Another resident wrote ‘Action Speaks Louder Than Words,’ and there were multiple ‘No Comment’ signs – after the president repeatedly declined to comment on the tragedy last week.

To date Biden has approved $8.2 million in assistance to 2,700 households in Hawaii. But critics were quick to compare that to the $12.1 billion in security assistance that has gone to Ukraine so far this year.

The people of Hawaii have been vocal in their outrage at the government, specifically Biden’s mistreatment of the situation.

One Hawaii resident was very vocal about his outrage.

This man hits the nail on the head.

Our government doesn’t bat an eye when giving $40 billion to a foreign nation.

But God forbid we give our OWN people the money they need to recover from catastrophe.

Americans work three jobs in a single household to put food on the table.

Americans on Maui are still digging their dead children from the rubble.

And the most most corrupt administration in our history sends billions and billions of our taxes to a money laundering operation. https://t.co/YxbNdkW2jQ

Biden will have a hard time winning ‘relection’ after his response in Maui.

The Associated Press has more on the struggles that Maui is facing following the wildfires:

Some areas under the unsafe water advisory could be cleared to use their tap water in a couple of weeks, said John Stufflebean, director of the Maui County Department of Water Supply.

But experts and history suggest it could take months or years before the worst of the damaged areas have safe water fully restored.

“We have a way to go before we can say that it’s safe,” Stufflebean said.

The county first told people in Upper Kula and Lahaina not to use their water on Aug. 11 shortly after fire damaged water pipes as it sped across the land. So far, one water quality test on the northwest edge of Lahaina showed low levels of benzene, a chemical known to cause cancer, but it was within federal safety limits.

That’s likely a clue to what more testing will find, said Andrew Whelton, a Purdue University professor who studied drinking water contamination following California’s 2018 Camp Fire and Colorado’s 2021 Marshall Fire.

“As you move closer to the middle of the water system where structures were destroyed, you’ll likely see higher levels of contamination,” he said.

Where homes and other structures burned, so did their interior pipes, along with shallow-buried exterior ones that connected them to the public water line, and the water meters, Stufflebean said. The utility’s networks of reservoirs, pumps, wells and treatment plants on Maui weren’t affected, and it’s unlikely that main lines — thick pipes buried more deeply — burned, he said.

“What other places have found in fires is that the main lines tend not to get damaged because they are buried,” he said.

That was the case in Paradise, California, the city almost completely destroyed in the Camp Fire. Main lines buried several feet underground were OK, though water utility assistant district manager Mickey Rich said small sections were damaged when lost pressure sucked in smoke and contaminants. Seventeen miles of the town’s 172 miles of main lines were contaminated and await replacement, and the city is still replacing service lines five years after the blaze.

I pray that more aid is sent to the people of Hawaii.

If not by our own government, then by other sources.

Japan has given large sums of money to Hawaii.

More than our own government!
