Hawaii bill that could boot Trump from ballot narrowly advances
A bill in Hawaii’s state legislature that could potentially keep former President Donald Trump off of the 2024 presidential ballot narrowly survived a procedural vote on Tuesday.
The Hawaii State Senate Judiciary Committee approved Senate Bill 2392 by a single vote, moving the bill to the full floor, HawaiiNewsNow reported. The proposal would place the decision to potentially disqualify Trump under the chief elections officer.
Advocates for the bill claimed Trump’s involvement in the riot at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, amounted to an insurrection that should bar him from running for — or winning — the presidency.
The bill comes as several other states have initiated efforts to prevent Trump, the current Republican front-runner, from appearing on the ballot in November.

Despite the bill clearing the procedural hurdle, the bill’s critics have been more outspoken than its supporters.
“This is tyrannical, to say the least,” said Jamie Detwiler, a resident who testified ahead of the vote, per the report. “He has not been convicted nor has he been charged with insurrection (cheers) there is no evidence of committing insurrection so please don’t waste our time on this poorly written piece of legislation.”
According to HawaiiNewsNow, the bill drew over 300 complaints or negative testimonies, with only about 20 favoring it.

Sen. Karl Rhoads, a Democrat, introduced the legislation as Hawaii does not have a legal process to exempt candidates from the ballot or disqualify them from appearing.

Senate Bill 2392, which cleared the committee by a 3-2 vote, would establish such a process.
A description of the bill says it “specifies that election ballots issued by the chief election officer or county clerk shall exclude any candidate who is disqualified by a constitutional or statutory provision.”
It also “provides for a process for challenging an inclusion or exclusion of a candidate from a ballot. Includes a candidate’s disqualification as grounds for an election contest complaint. Specifies that electors of presidential and vice presidential candidates shall not be individuals who are disqualified by a constitutional or statutory provision. Prohibits electors from voting for any presidential or vice presidential nominee who has been disqualified pursuant to Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.”

The bill is supported by the state’s Democratic Party.
Rhoads is a member of the Judiciary Committee, the Agriculture and Environment and the Public Safety Committee and the Intergovernmental and Military Affairs Committee.

Nevada National Security Site Museum hosts Cold War history presentation
LAS VEGAS (FOX5) — Visitors at the Nevada National Security Site Museum got a lesson in Cold War history and Southern Nevada’s atomic past Saturday.
Retired test site worker Marcus Brown gave a presentation on Camp Desert Rock, the military installation located about four miles from the Mercury site, where the military conducted experiments to determine whether soldiers could operate in a nuclear environment.

Brown said the series is part of regular talks the museum hosts every other week on topics including the USS Nevada, “Duck and Cover” and 1950s Las Vegas — all aimed at preserving the legacy of nuclear testing and its impact on the valley.
“Share the legacy and the history of the Nevada Test Site and the culture that it really kind of imparted to the Las Vegas community,” Brown said.
Brown’s history with the test site
Brown began his career at the Nevada Test Site in 1982 as a radiation health technician, supporting underground tests through 1992. He then moved into environmental remediation and later nuclear operations, continuing to work in the field until his retirement in 2023.
He now volunteers as a docent at the Nevada National Security Site Museum to share that history with new generations. Brown said the museum helps tell a story many locals never heard.
“Come and visit the museum. There’s a lot of culture and legacy and history here,” Brown said.

McCauley Springs Fire in Jemez grows to 722 acres
The McCauley Springs Fire grew to about 722 acres with no containment as crews also dealt with a mudslide that sent debris onto Highway 4.
JEMEZ SPRINGS, N.M. – The McCauley Springs Fire grew to about 722 acres with no containment as crews also dealt with a mudslide that sent debris onto Highway 4.
The U.S. Forest Service earlier this week issued a temporary closure on Highway 4 near mile markers 27 and 40 around Jemez.
“We’re asking the public to please do their part, understand that there are fire restrictions in this area, and just make sure that they’re, you know, before they’re recreating, they’re checking the fire restrictions to know where they’re going, to make sure you know what stage that area is in,” Tiffany Davila said.
Trevor reported the fire grew a little and crews fought both the fire and the weather last night.
A viewer sent KOB 4 video of a mudslide tearing through Jemez Springs. The video shows mud, water and debris flowing onto Highway 4.
The viewer said he now has to find temporary housing because of damage to his property.
