Seemingly in response to Obie's post on page one of this tread in which he quotes (without reference but seemingly from Facebook) a brief statement made by Kealoha Pisciotta about Ige's State of the State address HOTPE says:
Really? Capitulate to Corporate greed? I wonder which corporate gas company Kealoha uses when she fills up the tank of her car to drive to anti-TMT protests?
And I have to wonder is this just one of those grab some statement and make inflammatory remarks sort of things? After all in going back to Kealoha's original statement, as seen here:

and quoted by Obie on page one of this thread, there's nothing that lumps all the things HOTPE suggests into one blanket statement by Kealoha. In fact I see it as her specifically saying Ige is a corporate puppet and has acted as such in 2015. But hey is that a surprise? Is Ige anything other than a corporate puppet? What's the big deal HOTPE? Do you see Ige as something else? Is Kealoha wrong?
As to the TMT, Ige has done zip, nothing, but muddled the whole thing up. No leadership, no guidance, zip. Words. Actually I take that back, he screwed stuff up by allowing DLNR to put into place unlawful rules and arrest people based on them that were eventually overturned by the courts and all the arrests made based on them thrown out. In other words he's proven himself to be nothing more than a corporate puppet, and a pretty lame one at that. Which, in essence, is what Kealoha said.
ETA: More on Ige. The man is 100% a show piece, ineffectual. Look at the Dengue Fever outbreak. He's done nothing! Again WTF!?! To have the CDC state that we're unprepared to deal with it or any other outbreak is a shame, embarrassment, especially after all these months. Ige has done nothing! As such, what about what Kealoha has said is wrong?
As far as the initial gist of this thread, TMT getting back on track, yeah right. It's not. Either the TMT folks need to reapply for a permit, and if so where's the application? Or, if their application is still valid and all that's been nullified is the Contested Case Hearing, how come DLNR has not scheduled another hearing? TMT is dead in the water, floundering, nowhere near back on track just because our illustrious "leader" says something about wishing it was.
