I know ads take time to produce and get space bought, but if Democrats don’t have one on air this week showing the White House being torn down with the line “Trump is demolishing the White House. Shredding the Constitution. Tearing our country apart.” it's absolute political malpractice.

Homeboy ended up getting booked and released, but the right-wing media ecosystem is directly plugged into the fascist administration in a way that should freak us all out.

Not seeing a lot of reporting on it, but ICE has been hosting a carousel of right-wing propagandists on their roof here in Portland and even giving them commemorative patches.

Just bought tickets to two shows this weekend as an early birthday present to myself and I’m pretty pumped.
Tomorrow I’m headed to Bend to see MxPx and The Ataris so high school Kaliko is pretty pumped.
This will make it four shows in two weeks after seeing Haim and Linkin Park last week!

Bought myself a Bass and an amp off marketplace as an early birthday present.
Been wanting to learn but after attending Reggae Rise Up a couple of weeks ago, I decided it was finally time to get in the groove.

The Kamehameha High School Varsity Football team is in town to play West Linn Friday night!
Super bummed I won't be around to see the game but my buddy Kawika from Bamboo Grove had the whole squad in the restaurant yesterday!

I know it’s not a huge deal compared to the size of some channels but my last episode of KalikoVision took us to over 100 watch hours in less than a week. I also more than tripled my subscriber count. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to build for myself so I’m enjoying this creative project.

We’ve all been told Hawai’i is a part of the U.S. — but Dr. Keanu Sai broke that theory wide opened when he proved that the Hawaiian Kingdom remains under illegal occupation since 1898.
His journey down the rabbit hole started with a story his Tūtū told him about Prince Kuhio being in her house. 🤯

The new Matt’s BBQ collab called The Last Rodeo in Sellwood is SO good.
Matt’s is some of the best BBQ in Portland and it’s even better wrapped up in homemade tortillas.

Recorded my first episode with the brand new Executive Director of the Marijuana Policy Project that I’ll be dropping tomorrow.
Spent way too long editing this intro that I’ll be using for the YouTube version but I’m excited to have it done! 🤙🏾

Yo, I just finished the second episode of Jason Momoa’s Chief of War and it is SO fucking good.
I’m honestly still processing but as a Native Hawaiian who has never seen an authentic story told on a big platform like Apple TV before, this is truly groundbreaking.
Episode 3 drops August 8th.
