FBI Scrutiny in Hawaiʻi: New Associated Press reporting says FBI Director Kash Patel took a “VIP snorkel” around the USS Arizona—an off-limits Pearl Harbor war grave—days after the bureau insisted his Hawaiʻi trip was strictly work, renewing questions about mixing official travel with leisure. Local Accountability & Safety: Hawaiʻi officials are also warning disaster victims to avoid rebuilding scams after Kona Low damage, stressing proper permits and “build to code” rules. State Policy Push: Gov. Josh Green signed new laws on license-plate visibility and limits on corporate political spending, and unveiled a long-term “Vision for Hawaiʻi’s Future” plan covering housing, homelessness, energy resilience, and food security. Community Food Access: Honolulu expanded SNAP and WIC use at Oʻahu farmers markets and food hubs, aiming to cut barriers for families. National Watch: Across the U.S., lawmakers remain divided over assault weapons bans as Minnesota debates stall.
