[Cha]

3. Kai ,I've noticed on all his tweets gets right to

the heart of the matter.. he's a patriot and a Dem so there's no Gaslighting.. which is always a big PLUS! ;grouphug:

Mahalo, highplainsdem!

[Cha]

13. Wow.. Kai Kahele is in DC today, hpd!

21. Wow. She insults the hard, solemn work of Dems as "partisan."

She is wrong.

[Cha]

22. Yes! Gabbard is also Gaslighting for her own agenda.. How Dare she

insult our Intelligence with her "partisan" bullshit!

Mahalo, SunSeeker

This good news is she's LEAVING!

[SunSeeker]

25. Yes, the good news is she's leaving, and Kai is coming!

[Cha]

28. Hallelujah! I like that Kai is keeping

us informed about what gabbard is up to.. she's stiffed the people in her District.

Ed Case the Rep in District 1 voted for Impeachment and he's a "moderate"..

4. I think Tulsi wrote her own political obituary

with her cowardly "present" vote tonight.

[Cha]

12. I should hope so, mcar.. whoever she's trying to

please with this "present".. you can see it's Not her constituents.

This is her statement..

Mahalo, mcar!

19. As far as I can tell

Her political career in Hawaii is over. Just curious about her next move. Fox snooze?

[Cha]

32. That is the Question.. she's resigning from

Congress.. and as Kai Kahele says.. her "present" vote it "Unaccpetable" so we'll see why she backed herself into a corner.

Thanks, Normanart.

[Normanart]

33. No'u ka hau'oli

I live in Hilo, and actually voted for Tulsi the first time she ran. Not much known except the obvious, young, a woman, military experience, and she had signs and banners everywhere! Lots of money behind her campaign, and her opponents were not known, or worse, Republican. I did not vote for her last time after attending two of her town hall meetings. Too shifty for me. I really wonder what she is doing.

[Cha]

35. Right, when I first heard of heard of her..

I thought.. "great!".. until she started going on fox dissing President Obama and then I cancelled her emails and have been voting for her opponents(who she wouldn't debate) ever since.

Thank Goodness for State Senator Kai Kahele'!

Aloha, Normanart!

5. Great tweet. Somethin' wrong with that woman. She needs to go.

[PatrickforO]

6. Several actions on Gabbard's part lately, culminating with this 'present'

vote, lead me to think she's not really a Democrat, and to really question some of her actions.

[ecstatic]

8. Happy to have donated to his campaign.

Tulski's non-vote-vote today was completely unacceptable and disrespectful to her constituents. She needs to resign ASAP.

[Gothmog]

9. I like Kahele

[MustLoveBeagles]

10. I would've had more respect for her if she'd just voted no on both counts

I would've strongly disagreed with those votes but at least it would've showed some guts, however misguided. Voting present is the coward's way out.

[betsuni]

11. Well, she can't be seen voting with the yucky corrupt-regime-change-war-elite Democrat Party!

Gross. What would the nice, totally not partisan or corrupt or warmongering Republicans think? Power to the people, man.

[Cha]

16. This is TG's statement on Impeachment & her statement on DEMS..

our beautiful Democratic Party

Mahalo, betsuni

23. She reminds me of Meghan McCain, but instead of "my father" it's "I served in the military."

And both sides-both sides-both sides-both sides-both sides-both sides-tribalism-partisan-both sides.

[MustLoveBeagles]

14. K&R

[Cha]

15. Mahalo, Beagles! Kai was in DC today.. I didn't know that!

Link to tweet

Thank you!

[MustLoveBeagles]

17. I like him a lot

[Cha]

18. I know right! I am truly amazed.. he's like

it's almost too good to be true!

"You don't get a participation trophy for voting "present".. Nailed It! TG needs to be talked to like this just to let her know her gaslighting isn't working.

[calimary]

20. Yep. She just disqualified herself.

This is one of those times when you take a stand. Fence-sitting is NOT presidential. It’s what followers do, not leaders.

[TexasTowelie]

24. "just disqualified"?

She made that happen much earlier than tonight, IMHO.

[Tarheel_Dem]

26. Kai is exactly right, and I can't wait until Gabbard is a private citizen again. n/t

[John Fante]

27. "Both sides" is Russian for "Trump 2020".

[brer cat]

29. K&R

[BlueMTexpat]

30. I thank the stars that

HI will be getting a decent representative in Congress if Kai Kahele is elected.

Tulsi is literally the pits.

[thesquanderer]

31. Since Kai is not running against Gabbard (she has said she won't run)...

...I'm surprised he's still attacking her (deserved or not).

[corbettkroehler]

34. Sen. Kahele Is Exactly Right About The Vote And Checking In With Constituents

I second the sentiment here that Gabbard cast a weasel vote.

[flamingdem]

36. Excellent tweet from Kai!

Arrow meet target

[PhoenixDem]

37. Kai Kahele will defeat Tulsi for HI-2 in the primary. n/t
