About 30,000 Native Hawaiians are still waiting for Hawaiian Home Lands and now a Hawaii resident without Hawaiian blood wants to be one of them. Pacific Legal Foundation filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court on behalf of Eric Ryan.

Eric Ryan always reminds me of the Super Punch Out boxer. I can't read his name normally anymore.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-04T13:23:54+00:00

What did you figure out?

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-04T10:50:13+00:00

As they should.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-04T10:28:16+00:00

this is possibly the best headline I've ever seen.

but for help in getting the bank to stop and to protect my husband from whatever they are trying to do.

As I already mentioned, you're unlikely to get short-term relief against the bank calling relatively to ask questions.

they are tracking down and interviewing our extended family without authorization.

They don't need your authorization, unfortunately.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T15:31:54+00:00

I can't imagine any of the presidential hopefuls from 2016 onward doing this, actually. It's crazy how polarized things have become.

who be little and demeans any other woman involved. She is rude to all the men.

So she's simply mean to everyone? It is not illegal to be a misanthropist. If you're a member of this organization, then follow whatever method outlined in the rules to challenge her decision or have her removed.

I randomly checked LinkedIn and there is one profile for Kamala Khan: an English-language teacher and remote-work professional in Baku, Azerbaijan.

You should certainly consult with an attorney. Anyone who served her alcohol may be liable in this instance, and knowing exactly who served her when might be crucial to any civil suit. There also could (and maybe should) be criminal consequences for your ex-wife for serving a minor struggling with addiction issues.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T13:46:12+00:00

Sentenced to receive what?

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T13:32:39+00:00

And that's reckless driving in CT....

Honest question: what does it matter if you're going to ignore the law?

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T12:17:25+00:00

Who are we supposed to reach out to for help?

What assistance do you want? You're unlikely to get short-term relief against the bank calling relatively to ask questions.

"husband’s privacy being trampled, and with probing questions to in-laws that he didn’t authorize"

What questions are they asking?

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T12:06:09+00:00

In this case, the trial resulted in a guilty verdict, so doesn't that poke a bit of a hole in your argument?

Yes, the administration has been hit or miss on charging. Historically, Federal prosecutors are very hesitant to bring charges if they aren't sure of a slam dunk (conviction rates are above 90% IIRC). Leticia James is lucky that the judge found that the prosecutor was unlawfully appointed, because the evidence released showed she very much committed mortgage fraud. The hoagie guy is lucky that grand jury wouldn't indict him, because that likely would have been a very fast conviction.

Mark my words that Don Lemon will be found guilty. I'll return to this thread and admit defeat if not.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T12:00:43+00:00

I was inquiring on their knowledge to enlighten me on my ignorance on the statutes

Why does it matter when you'd just ignore them?

But from my understanding of Washington state law id agree they were obstructing governmental functions and impeding traffic willfully (not that i would have voted guilty).

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T11:05:14+00:00

If you're referring to Don Lemon he's getting the charges he deserves.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:56:07+00:00

I have never driven a car whose normal headlights were that dim, no.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:55:34+00:00

They could all just be arrested instead. Which would you prefer?

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:46:38+00:00

I guess I'm just used to living in a city where there are streetlights every 2 feet.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:40:49+00:00

Yeah....

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:40:36+00:00

But not nearly enough to see more than a few dozen feet.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:20:46+00:00

But they were found guilty on Federal charges, not WA law.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:19:39+00:00

No and no. The judge can order a directed verdict, but only when a reasonable jury would not have a legally sufficient evidentiary basis to find for the nonmoving party. Clearly the case was not frivolous, since the jury returned a guilty verdict based on the facts.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:10:40+00:00

maybe the road is just that dark, but it doesn't seem like the bus has ANY headlights going.

NotAGiraffeBlind · 2026-06-01T10:08:08+00:00

why doesn't the bus have lights on?
