Today in Hawai‘i is Statehood Day or Admission Day. It is a holiday for the State of Hawai‘i set for the third Friday in August. It is supposed to commemorate the anniversary of when Hawai‘i was admitted to the American Union in 1959.
On March 18, 1959, the U.S. Congress enacted a statute called An Act To provide for the admission of the State of Hawaii into the Union. This Act of Congress began the process where Hawai‘i would eventually be admitted into the Union. On August 21, 1959, the third Friday of August, U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed a proclamation making Hawai‘i the 50th State. With the unveiling of a more accurate and objectively true history, the State of Hawai‘i never legally existed in the first place.
In 1999, the Permanent Court of Arbitration, in Larsen v. Hawaiian Kingdom, recognized the continued existence of the Hawaiian Kingdom as an independent State since the 19th century. And in 2024, Oxford University Press published a chapter by Dr. Keanu Sai “Hawai‘i’s Sovereignty and Survival in the Age of Empire,” in H.E. Chehabi and David Motadel’s book Unconquered States: Non-European Powers in the Imperial Age. In this chapter Dr. Sai covers: the legal and political history of my country—the Hawaiian Kingdom; the evolution of governance as a constitutional monarchy; the unlawful overthrow of the government by United States troops in 1893; the prolonged American occupation since 1893; the restoration of the government of the Hawaiian Kingdom in 1997; and the recognition, by the Permanent Court of Arbitration in 1999, of the continued existence of the Hawaiian Kingdom as a State and the Council of Regency as its provisional government. Because the Hawaiian Kingdom currently exists as a State under international law, the State of Hawai‘i cannot simultaneously exist as a State under American law.
In a recently uploaded interview on the podcast called KalikoVision, with host Kaliko Castille, Dr. Sai explains why Hawai‘i was never acquired by the United States and why the State of Hawai‘i does not legally exist.
Who is protesting Statehood today?
http://www.hawaiiankingdom.net
One of my children was working at the Made In Hawaii 3-day event & needed transportation, so I was out-n-about. While I saw NO protests, more importantly I saw NO “celebrations” of the FAKE state! Instead, locals went shopping and/or treated it *just* as a day off. 😜
Also in the podcast featured in this HK post, Kumu mentions ‘no need to protest’. Rather be the BEST you can be, aka your kuleana & the Council of Regency will too– by FORCING COMPLIANCE… (which is coming soon!) I’ve participated in protest early on so I can see his point. Our community remains CLUELESS so are not mentally engaged, they nokea about our ‘noise’. THEY NEED TO BE EDUCATED. I made some good ‘awakened’ contacts, however!
You do your best and let others do their best. Aloha!
Nothing wrong with living your life as a person in America….so shop. Work. Follow the law and be happy. No need make our people look stupid not participating in the American society that rules the land till it is time to move when our Regents are ready. Lawmakers is the way not be dumb and not shop at ” Made in Hawaii”
Richard, good advice. Everyone has to survive until this occupation ends. There will be times when you got to protest, like Mauna Kea and that is good. Pick your battles and let the occupier think it’s a cultural thing because they can tolerate that. I have been monitoring this blog from its inception and there are those that promote stupid and dangerous ideas of giving up your SSN, Birth Certificate and other nonsense. That is definitely detrimental to you being the best you can be. Live Aloha
Stupid is as stupid does. Fools continue to smoke knowing it’s harmful effects and some of them even talk in their sleep. However if the voice of our people is the voice of God and Hawaiians are not sounding off, as I do for my Tutu who was robbed as she would have registered and voted for independence, and still would, if she’d known, then the Hawaiian people can only blame themselves for their choice to live their life “as a person in America” expecting God to come in the form of a Regency not established by the Monarch but by European customs of self government.
Our Queen believed in the individual and national self-determination of her people, as do I. E hau’oli la hanau e Tutu Lili’u!
My goodness, why so sensitive? Is it because you were one of those pushing that everyone give up their social security numbers?
Wondering if the IGO mentioned is the ICJ, ICC, Interpol, PIG, PIF, UPU, ADB, or UNGA.
Did you folks catch THE ENDING of the featured podcast?

Besides Keanu offering sage advice on maximizing OUR kuleana, he then adds:
“The Council of Regency. we have to do what we have to do because our job is to BRING COMPLIANCE & we’re on that road. IT’S GOING TO HAPPEN, SOON, VERY SOON.” 🎉
Yeah to “Soon, very soon”! My (former?) profession had me reviewing tons of literature & media for their merits/demerits. So if you can imagine, HOW intrigued I am during our past years of drama. It’s like we’re the protagonist in the Neverending Story (Hawaiian version)! The world he lives in, is oblivious to the world between-the-pages he can influence…
GLAD I’m among ‘the awakened ones’! Looking forward to helping w/ our ‘Project WakeUp’ in ways that I can.
P.s. I’ve seen LOTS of public webcam footage from the Maunakea Observatories of hovering rectangular space craft– most likely back-engineered & ‘ours’ (since there was a jeep & humans below on one occasion). So (((maybe))) space industry is/will be one of Hawaii’s viable industries? 😎
Yeeeeesssaah! I did see and hear that. Keep thinking how can I help the Counsel of Regency, but Dr. Sai says to just be the best that you can be at whatever you do be the best. 😊
Sue, one way to help in ending the occupation is by purchasing Hawaiian Kingdom Bonds. This is a way everyone can help. Invest to help bring back our governance as a neutral country and not a target for nuclear strikes by enemies of America.
We can take advantage of free health care, receive free Kuleana lands, purchase gov’t land at $17.00 an acre up to 50 acres, gain 33% of income by not having to pay illegal IRS taxes…etc.
Caution when investing in US dollar Council of Regency Hawaiian Kingdom bonds when the dollar is sinking…you going lose your money fast. And although you’ll have paid for the protection and restoration of your civil and political rights, you won’t get any of the protections, privileges and benefits until the occupation ends. So unless you buying US dollar bonds from China and investing it in something that can offset inflation/money printing, it ain’t worth it. And unless you understand how government financing, securities, central banking, and bills of credit work, I suggest more study less investing.
Consider especially how investing in a government bond that is not a sovereign government and whose bonds can be effected by any DCCA enforcement actions will impact your investment. I understand the hope that investing provides our people but financing such a speculative venture which have been a thing since ever since requires serious knowledge, and wisdom.
As a side note, the Council doesn’t disclose the public debts they have acquired in selling these bonds so far which will be leveraged against any reparations. Nor do they hold public auctions of them. But even the US government tells you how much debt individuals owe based on the national debt, although unfunded liabilities are often ignored.
So if you do not understand the mechanics, origins and development of money, international finance, and the weaponization of the dollar, then don’t invest in any government or US dollar bonds.
I heard it too but no let your leg get too long as the empirical recklessness of US foreign policy especially in light of this administrations goals is not to be underestimated.

The European colonial powers are steaming over Putin in Alaska because Trump is getting his lick back for Russiagate! I wonder how they would have felt if they met in Kauai.
War hawk down! Another one bites the dust. After Gina Haspel, Fiona Hill, Dan Coates, James Comey…now John Bolton gets raided (Rhone Group/Lazard Bank). Keep it coming Tulsi because I do not think that Americans/Hawaiians clearly know yet how their government has been usurped by a British (Palestine/Iraq Mandate) shadow government within and duped into wars.
The modern British financial empire is a British rules based international heirarchy/order (Boer War). This order depended on the US alliance for the last 80 years in which the US has bore all the burdens and costs acting as servant for their masters project of “cosmopolitanism/globalization” rather than in their own national interests. British “American” advisors surrounding US Presidents make them obedient and docile controlling the Office hemming it in with the media and public opinion.

fyi
LOOK AT THIS JANUARY 2027 debut date for the Hawaii State Capitol art installation–an INTERACTIVE thick-glass exterior flooring ‘art piece’ design led by local artist #SolomonEnos.
“The exterior Capitol areas are designed to host events & areas for more community engagement… It will be debut January 2027— when ALL THE CURRENT CAPITOL FENCING will be down too.” 😎 [will it be on Sunday, Jan 1/17/27]!
Interesting also that artist Enos mentions that “brackish water” was to blame for the current pools malfunction. Yet there’s extensive underground parking & it’s miles from the ocean. So HOW would salt water seep up to ground level without flooding the underground parking? Suppose that’s the cover to fund allocations? 🤔 Recall there’s an estimate of $100Million in renovations needed for EACH the Capitol & HNL City Hall which also justifies the RELOCATION of all employees beginning in 2025…
https://youtu.be/CACFr473mE4?si=nqYYNRQsZU8aitrc
FUNDING? (Per ChatGPT)
In his message to the Legislature on June 27, 2025 (GM 1345), Governor Green approved the CAPITOL PLANNING *ALLOCATION w/o veto or reduction, citing it as a necessary step for long-term infrastructure improvements.
He noted LOWER REVENUE PROJECTIONS but prioritized “essential” projects like this one. The message referenced the item as qualifying for grant-like treatment under Chapter 42F, Hawaii Revised Statutes, but did not include further details on implementation or relocation logistics.
Overall, the funds originate from state general obligation bonds approved through the legislative budget process, rather than a separate bill or external source. This represents the initial phase; future sessions may allocate the remaining funds for construction once planning is complete. For full details, refer to the enacted bill text and related documents on the Hawaii State Legislature website.
*Only 2 million have been allocated/released thus far for “planning” purposes*
Wasteful spending!
*think* it SHOWS (((why))) those occupied locations MUST be closed– without disclosing the REAL reason why (military rule). Since clearly they can’t stay operational IF they remain in the same location— since the “renovations” (wink, wink!) are VERY extensive!
I haven’t confirmed all of this (in Law of War Manual etc) yet it seems plausible! Whatcha folks think?
‘…Now under “District of America” (sans the DC) jurisdiction w/ National Guard federalized to implement GLOBAL military operations, to prosecute TREASON & WAR CRIMES within the US, bypassing the compromised civilian courts, now via LAW OF WAR…’
‘Anyone found doing CRIMES vs the people can be treated as a “combatant” & put in military custody w/ military tribunals = MILITARY JURISDICTION…’ 🔥🔥🔥
I know of a few cabal “judges” that HAVE IGNORED warnings to STOP THEIR PILLAGING while Hawaii is still under OCCUPATION. .. 🤨

I think it’s nationalism at it’s finest hour. Most Americans however don’t have the same paradigm because, like Hawaiians, Americans are internationalists rather than nationalists. Their ignorance hinders growth allowing some to repeat history while those who know it, suffer helplessly.
I also think that the DOJ will drop a huge criminal seditious conspiracy case that Tulsi been investigating, especially with this weeks busts on James Comey and John Bolton. It is further revealing the network of co-conspirators.
It is thus no wonder how Trump got all them European “leaders” to sit like students in his class. He is single handedly exposing their globalist foolery against himself as part of ‘we the people’ and forcing them to pay for it. It will be glorious to watch all the British spies and American internationalists under the control of the British financial empire fall.
Loving that one of our ‘local surfing gals, now DNI’ has a LEAD ROLE in dismantling corruption– with grace, sometimes gun-armed & at other times strumming a ukulele. Talk about a FAB assertive ‘with-aloha’ “DON’T tread on us” role model! Looking forward to our locals REALIZING what she’s done for Hawaii+ rather than idolizing fake-local Barry Soetoro!
What are your thoughts on Pohakuloa? Do you guys think that the Council of Regency would have any leverage against the US military. They’re saying they need a deal by the end of this year or they will claim imminent domain and just take it. But they have no jurisdiction to claim that because Hawai’i is not a state. Do you guys think the UN could help?
I think we can help ourselves as with the TMT more than any 3rd party can because only we can determine our allegiances and give our pledge. However we must recognize the kuleana private property rights of heirs on Crown and government lands instead of public rights, interests or welfare under the state constitution. So many Hawaiians stay talking about ideas for what should be done but only the heirs have a vested right and interest in the lands.
For example, in Makua, some Hawaiians stay exercising public rights access and use totally ignoring that there were private properties which were unlawfully condemned under eminent domain.
More importantly, the sacrilegious Lono practices engaged in Makua by foreign Hawaiian settlers in Waianae is hurtful to the actual people of the land, the kupuka’aina, the original families. Those rediscovering themselves and their history should steer clear of the private rights of undetermined kuleana heirs and know what cultural practices are associated with lands. There is a reason why all the temples in Waianae are dedicated to Kane (Kanehunamoku, Kaneaki, Kaneikapualena, Kaneana, Kaneilioloa, etc.). The
Kane religious customs and practitioners must be respected by Hawaii island families now residing in Waianae/Kanehunamoku.
After the fascist economic policies were touted by Central Bankers at Jackson Hole, the UK activates it’s surveillance and censorship regimes arresting people for their thoughts and speech. Meanwhile, Lagarde says the ECB is accelerating the rollout of the digital Euro, a CBDC, and it’ll be ready in October. Europeans will have their currencies programmed and their spending habits monitored so they will be more controlled by government then ever in their history.
Add to that the tokenization of assets and the picture of humanities future is clear. Privacy will be no more. Only the rich will own and have their assets in trusts and protected where they can control it and transact without any government interference.
The WEFs goal where everyone will “own nothing and be happy” is in full force and effect. It is a clear and present danger to the freedoms and liberties and every individual. Programmable currencies and tokenized assets with a surveillance system backed by AI underpinning it all are the new slave chains. Pre-crime units are already established and one can only imagine what 2121 will look like.

Aloha Lopaka, can you help me, get back on the mailing list to receive HK posts and comments? I haven’t received any recently and haven’t been able to find the link to sign up again. Mahalo nui, Barbara
ps; write to boopetersen@gmail.com with response. Although I had to Log in to post this and I tapped the toggle for receive emails instantly. I wonder if this means that I’ll get original posts as well as replies. We’ll see!
I just live here, I don’t administer this blog site.
I think the US military is fear mongering with imminent domain and trying to rush Green into signing an agreement because they know that the Hawaiian Kingdom has Kingdom has filed an official complaint against the US. They know that time is not on their side.
That makes total sense, however any agreement made by Green in the pressure of the Federal agency will surely have the blowback of the Hawaiian people’s will to protest and defend their Crown, government and kuleana lands and rights. Because states are primary in international law, they prioritize their own interests before others but any common interests aligned which is of benefit to both can be utilized for legal and/or political purposes and leverage. That being said, I believe the cause of the US Army tightening the screws on Green is actually different and not because the Hawaiian Kingdom filed a complaint due to the fact that the complaint was filed after the Secretary’s visit here and not before. Thus, they had no clue about it. Therefore, the basis for their reaction was more due to the public administrative state process where the people won out.
Aside from that though we need consensus against such US public doctrines like just compensation because no amount of money can buy our territorial sovereignty over Crown, government, and kuleana lands. It is a integral part of the dynamics and inherently necessary that we demonstrate as a people that the state cannot unjustly enrich themselves in light of the maladministration of the people’s plebiscite which is a violation of international public law via the UN Charter. As we are growing consensus on the occupation of Hawaiian Crown, government and kuleana lands and rights which is a violation of international humanitarian law via the Hague and Geneva Conventions and the principles and customs of the laws of war, we have a perfect opportunity to shake off our colonial occupiers and call out their fraudulent misrepresentation of a 50th state of Hawaii!
I wonder what will break first…the property tax appraisal fraud issue (property taxes jump 10 to 30% year over year/overvaluation/16th amendment) where counties/school districts failed to follow USPAP laws or the fraudulent misrepresentation of the 50th state. Since the property taxes are tied to bonds floated by counties and school districts, I believe this fraud will blow first as the losses to the profits that have been already been privatized (to bond investors) and the public taxpayers will foot the bill.
Now, just imagine the value of the bonds that will be floated by the State and County in order to get the Stadium District redone and the interest that will be paid to the county bond holders who invest in this public-private partnership. I mean the taxes you will have to pay to cover the counties ass-ets. It is fascism/corporatism at its finest!

Let’s HOPE there’s an official announcement that the Presumption of Continuity IS correct, confirming Maui Police’ decision to follow LAW OF OCCUPATION since there’s NO treaty of cession per AG Lopez’s continued silence. Can’t be any upset locals nor need for a vote to ‘break away from US’ because “it IS what it IS! Then reparations f-l-o-w.
Ai says these treaties were ONLY extinguished bec’ of “political change”. “Treaty of Friendship, Commerce, and Navigation (12/20/1849) established diplomatic & commercial relations between the two nations.
Treaty of Reciprocity (1/30/1875) granted duty-free access for Hawaiian sugar & other agricultural products into the US, in exchange for special economic privileges for the US.
So, if there was “NO political change” those would still be active, right? Wait, just the first one since it’s PRIOR to the Organic Act of 1871 (when foreign bankers turned America into US Inc corporation, located in “DC”). Recall US Inc is now NO LONGER, that’s why the “DC” has been removed off of Google Maps.
Note in the “Treaty of Friendship…”:
Article I There shall be PERPETUAL PEACE & AMITY between the United States and the King of the Hawaiian Islands, his heirs and his successors.
“Amity” =friendly relations between “nations” = gov of a “sovereign State”
Under international law, treaties are BINDING AGREEMENTS, and the principle of pacta sunt servanda—that agreements MUST BE KEPT—applies.
DJT has an obligation to FREE Hawaii as the CIC while under COG. Lots of peace treaties have been signed these last years around the world, aided by his leadership. Certainly WOULD BE monumental to WITNESS the signing of a NEW treaty between our acting Council of Regency & DJT (as president #18 or #19? since 1871) of the the American REPUBLIC!
Until then, I’m off tomorrow to face King Kalakaua’s TRAITOROUS AG’s grandson–who’s STILL in the business of THEFT & DECEPTION vs. Hawaiian subjects using LAWFARE. Clearly, NO truth nor justice in their genetics. 🤐
Hey Folks– You see this? Timely & BRILLANTLY SHOWS the people history reenacted!
The RECENT adoption of Act 167 has made September 2025 the FIRST OFFICIAL Hawaiian History Month, honoring Queen Liliuokalani’s legacy, Native Hawaiian contributions, while promoting public awareness of Hawaii’s TRUE history & culture.
One highlight is “Mai Poina” OVERTHROW WALKING TOURS (Sept. 6, 7 & 13), where actors guide participants through pivotal moments of January 1893 at Iolani Palace.
It’s CLEAR there IS a resurgence of Hawaiian Kingdom PROMINENCE on all gov websites, school diplomas & even language lesson segments on TV!
The Country of the #HawaiianKingdom was NEVER LAWFULLY acquired by use of a #TreatyofCession. In fact, The 1849 Treaty of Friendship, Commerce, and Navigation with the United States has NEVER been canceled! 😎 Hawaii’s TIDES ARE CHANGING!
