Below is a conversation I had recently with a small business owner and devout Christian - about Trump/Musk. We live in the same small town and share many things in common- but support for Trump is not one of them. We had a civil yet pointed discussion garyhooser.blog/2025/03/22/tru…

As former Hawaii State Senator, Majority Leader, Councilmember, Vice-Chair of State Dem Party, DNC member– I like to believe my thinking, writing, political commentary is informed and on point. I hope I’m wrong on this one, but I’ve got to say it out loud.garyhooser.blog/2025/03/29/a-d…

I understand but cannot forgive nor accept the Trump/Musk world view. They each were born into a white world of extreme wealth. Their world view is shaped by experiences totally different from people who struggle daily to feed families and pay rent. garyhooser.blog/2025/02/24/dei…

Gotta figure it out. Can’t wait to 2026, certainly not 2028. Too many already hurting, dying. Marching, holding signs not enough. Amazon/Target boycotts fall short. An impotent Congress, courts offer only false hope. What legal, moral, ethical action can we engage to stop this?

It’s time for Hawai’i to lead. The Big Ugly Abomination Bill is not a game, a joke, nor just a very bad dream. It will bring real harm to real people. We gotta push back. garyhooser.blog/2025/05/25/mor…

These are the smartest, richest men on the planet. They don’t want no stinking democracy. To them, the masses are the asses. Allowing regular people to control government is a fantasy supported only by Communists and those dirty Bernie Sanders Socialists garyhooser.blog/2025/06/22/tit…

The U.S. Army is refusing to comply with State law HRS 343, requiring full disclosure of environmental, health & cultural impacts. They’re saying Hawai’i must allow them to continue bombing Pōhakuloa or they’ll take the land by force, via eminent domain. garyhooser.blog/2025/08/25/tru…

The student loan crisis is a result of what was/is a predatory lending scheme worse than the subprime mortgage fiasco. Lenders shoveled money to anyone that asked and then loaded up the compound interest AND the got the feds to exclude student loans from bankruptcy protections
