A bit of a history lesson: A series of islands in the Pacific Ocean, Hawaii is our 50th state, having been granted statehood on this date in 1959.
In recent months, Hawaii has become better known to right-wing Republicans as "Kenya."
Today is also the first day of Ramadan. I'm guessing those same Republicans don't consider this a coincidence.
