"Could be?"
Ahhh. So there are more than one (does this surprise anyone?) ::) That's one theory. This one is credible. :rofl:
Another theory? She is covering for somebody else. They stalled so they all could get their stories straight. This one is very credible. :rofl: :rofl:
After all, look at her. Look at her Poster Girl Face. Does this face look like the face of a corrupt and arrogant Politician?
Don't answer that...... :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

A significant portion of the political establishment has it out for Sylvia. She's a bit of a renegade.

This doesn't sound like the "paper bag" IMO. I mean,a politician could add up many donations to equal roughly that amount.
The real question is, why would she address this?

Public Trust is minus zero.
Just like the movie: Godzilla Minus-Zero.

Good fun reading all the comments on the YouTube channels.
governor green is concerned about public trust. Based on the comments he doesn't have to. Public trust has been gone a long time ago.
He was supposed to go to the governor's dinner/mtg. held at the White House. But he canceled last minute because he feels right now the state needs "strong leadership" in the wake of all this crap coming out and wants to help expedite the information to the public to maintain the public's trust in their government. :rofl:
::)
Luke is the Lt. Gov. She is fully capable of running the state for the short time green is gone. And she did put out a public statement that says she wants total transparency and committed 100% cooperation with the investigation.
So why doesn't HE want to go and wants to stay back?
Unless...... >:D

it's an election year and Green is seeking a presidential run.
What can go wrong when the person they appointed is investigating them?.......

So the AG is saying prior to 2022 the feds were investigating public corruption of govt. officials because the AG dept. lacked the resources to do so.
And the AG is saying that as of 2022, the legislature has funded and created a division that is intended to address THIS VERY ISSUE, staffed with the proper people with experts and analysts trained and experienced to handle cases like this.
So, a department created within the department to address public corruption of officials that appointed them to the department.
No thank you. You said no independent investigation is needed. I SAY WE DO. :grrr:

Merrick Garland, but with a different haircut and a hard-on for Jim Crow.
No, wait.
Same haircut.

and it runs deeper with an infamous last name coming up again...

The groundbreaking ceremony for the National Kidney Foundation of Hawaiʻi’s new building in Kapolei was a major affair.
Local dignitaries showed up, including State Rep. Ty Cullen, Honolulu Councilwoman Kym Pine, state Sen. Mike Gabbard, and retired U.S. Sen. Daniel Akaka — for whom the $20 million Oʻahu project would be named.
TV cameras rolled as they smiled and stuck ceremonial ‘ō‘ō sticks in the dirt on that day in 2016 to mark the kick-off of a planned 20,000-square-foot kidney health resource center, which was to include a teaching kitchen for patients with kidney disease.
Nearly a decade later, the lot is still vacant.

Covered in weeds and surrounded by fencing, the only clue to what the project was meant to be is a graffiti-covered sign with the National Kidney Foundation logo that says: “Coming Soon!”
In the last 10 years, the Kidney Foundation collected at least $3 million from the state to support the project, according to the departments of labor and health. In its pitch to the state, the foundation underscored the urgency for the center, saying it would serve the tens of thousands of Hawaiʻi residents who suffer from chronic kidney disease, many of whom are not referred to a nephrologist until their kidney function reaches 20%.
“At that point their kidneys will fail,” it wrote. “If we can reach them and adjust their lifestyle and nutrition as well as monitoring other related issues, we can stop or slow the progression of kidney disease.”
The Kidney Foundation’s IRS filings show it in turn paid out about $1.75 million to firms associated with Dennis Mitsunaga, a politically connected contractor who was tried and acquitted of public corruption in a high-profile 2024 trial.
The firm he founded, Mitsunaga & Associates, Inc., received approximately $750,000 for architecture services between 2022 and 2024, according to the foundation’s IRS disclosures. And Lincoln Builders — a company headed by Mitsunaga’s late son, Bert Mitsunaga — got an even $1 million for “Kapolei construction” between 2021 and 2022, the disclosures state.
