The Hawaiian Supreme Court has long had a tendency to rule as if Hawaii was still an independent nation-state, rather than one of the 50 United States, notably referring to the island’s “Aloha Spirit” as a reason it need not comply with the Constitution’s Second Amendment, no matter how the US Supreme Court rules on 2A matters.
Well, they’ve just transitioned from being impudent and insubordinate, to being utterly deranged in rebellion against SCOTUS authority.
In ruling on a criminal appeal involving now-questionable hair matching testimony offered in a 1989 sexual assault case that resulted in a 40-year sentence, the Hawaiian Supreme Court actually had an interesting legal question at hand.
Given that the questionable nature of the evidence was learned only 20 years after the conviction, and was believed by all to be reliable at the time offered, should this evidence be treated as “newly discovered”—in which case relief on appeal was unlikely given all the other cumulative evidence of guilt—or should it be treated as “false evidence” mandating a new trial?
Interesting stuff—and the Hawaiian Supreme Court ultimate chooses the second option and grants a new trial, although the appellants sentence was right on the verge of the end of his 40-year sentence.
That’s not the crazy part, however. The crazy part is that the Hawaiian Supreme Court spent nearly 10 pages of this opinion going completely off the rails of the facts and law of this appeal, and spending those pages absolutely EXCORIATING the US Supreme Court and its last several years of jurisprudence in particular and its commitment to originalism generally.
As far as the Hawaiian Supreme Court is concerned, SCOTUS is nothing but Right-wing Fascist trash, trash, trash, and they are not holding back in sharing their feelings on the matter.

Episode #M1387.
NOTE: We mostly ended up covering Bessent's recent speech last week at the Reagan Library.
Yesterday the great and powerful Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent absolutely WRECKED House Democrats during a hearing of the House Ways & Means Committee.
And that was only day after he had done the same to Senate Democrats in a hearing of the Senate Finance committee.
What is best in life, Bessent the Barbarian? To crush your Democrats, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentations of their gender confused!
Trump just shared with America all the winning his administration has already secured for the nation, as well as all the winning coming down the road.
Yesterday was Trump’s 12th publicly aired cabinet meeting, all in his first 14 months in office. This contrasts sharpy with a mere three that Biden held in the same time frame of his administration.
Join me as I break down the second half of this lengthy cabinet meeting and celebrate all the winning.

Videos Not Available Is Annoying! A short time ago, I sent the below text to locals support at [email protected]. I included links to the current batch of @TheBrancaShow videos that I would like to see. In the email that I sent I included active links, here I have intentionally broken the links by putting a space preceding the "com" domain so that the video links would not resolve here.
Locals support is pretty responsive. You just have to take the time to contact them. I will update here when they respond to my request.

There is nothing wrong with giving your happy, mentally stable child a rifle in America. If however your child is off the rails and you allow your child to have access to a firearm or car for that matter and ignore the dangers, there are consequences.
Now, let us see the prosecution of the parents of gangbangers across America that let their thug, robbing, raping, drug slinging, and murdering children keep their firearms in the home.
