They said “law and order.” They meant “hoods and handcuffs.” Hawaiʻi is fighting back. My new cartoon pulls back the mask on America’s secret police, and its white supremacist lineage.

State Rep. Diamond Garcia built his brand attacking Democrats over the cost of living. When Trump admits he’s profiting off of war, and gas hits $5.50, that grift gets harder to sell.

Congressman Ed Case’s empty rhetoric on ICE counts for little so long as his campaign funding comes largely from the same war-profiteering donors who supply the tools of militarized policing at home and abroad.

In a broken political wasteland, the War Rig of Manufactured Grievance crushes all in its path. Strapped to its back: a clown-car of feuding sycophants, fighting for a wheel that doesn't steer. Witness the fury on GOP Road.

The grift that keeps on taking: Ed Blum's Kam Schools lawsuit uses manufactured grievance politics to try to dismantle a real remedy for colonial harm, all in service of white supremacy.

An Israeli government-sponsored trip costs us not in dollars, but in principle. It's a cost paid in the devaluation of Aloha. It tells the world that in Hawaiʻi, our most cherished symbol can be weaponized to bless a genocide.

From Red Hill to Hawaiʻi’s false missile alert, it becomes clearer each day the U.S. military doesn’t keep us safe. As heroic façade becomes farce, small wins, like the BLNR’s rejection of the Army’s EIS for Pōhakuloa, become possible.

A reaction to the inauguration of Donald Trump as 47th president of the United States, ushering in the official age of American Demagoguecracy, a government ruled through fear.
