Too subtle for me, HOTPE.
Sorry, I posted quickly without the background details:
Tulsi Gabbard, the only member of Hawaii's congressional delegation who offered words of support for the Mauna Kea protestors was not with them yesterday, but in Puerto Rico joining the 500,000 people who demonstrated against their governor.

Do Tulsi's actions speak louder than her words?
Is she trying to have it both ways?
Are we stuck with another Jen Ruggles, a representative who collects her paycheck but pursues her own personal interests and agendy while ignoring the people of her district?
(For perspective, 500,000 protestors would be the equivalent of every resident of Big Island driving up to Mauna Kea Access Road, every resident of Maui and Kauai flying in, as well as hundred thousand or two from Oahu.)
