Jana Ireijo is an Hawaii born muralist whose passion as a conservation artist is born out of a love of art that started at a very young age. Jana creates vanishing murals using charcoal gathered from areas recently affected by wildfires.  This material, formed by the heat of the flames, carries the story of destruction and renewal that is intrinsic to the natural world.  She says her art is a reflection of the transience and impermanence of life and nature. Born in Honolulu in 1968, Jana has spent most of her life in transit leaving the island for California, before attending grad school in New York, then as a divorced woman to Connecticut where she raised her family, and finally returning to Hawai'i in 2023, where she has come full circle. Jana is the eldest of three children; she has a younger sister and brother. Her parents Rona August, a realtor, father James Ireijo, and step-father Joel August (both attorneys) encouraged Jana as a child to explore the arts, taking her to museums and galleries, and ensuring she always had access to arts and crafts. It was her mother that recognized a natural talent and told Jana she would become an artist. When the time came to choice her career pathway, Jana was drawn to advertising and after graduating from H. P. Baldwin High School (Maui) in 1986, she headed for the University of Hawai'i at Manoa to earn a BFA in Graphic Design in1991.  She then attended Pratt Institute, New York, where she earned an MFA Painting in 1999.  Jana took ten years off from her art to raise a family before turning her hand to public murals and developing her own style. Now back in the islands as an empty nester, Jana has immersed herself in her passion for environmental issues, such as the ocean, deep sea mining, and helping her community. She is also working on her first book for children entitled Vanishing Moon.  Jana's links:https://janaireijo.co/https://www.instagram.com/janaireijo Some favorite female artists:Gillian Jagger - sculptor - she was my thesis advisor at Pratt, and a huge influence in my practice.

She was bent over and was quite unable to stand up straight. 12 When Jesus saw her, he called her over and said, “Woman, you are set free from your ailment.” 13 When he laid his hands on her, immediately she stood up straight and began praising God. 14 But the leader of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had cured on the Sabbath, kept saying to the crowd, “There are six days on which work ought to be done; come on those days and be cured and not on the Sabbath day.” 15 But the Lord answered him and said, “You hypocrites! Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger and lead it to water? 16 And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abraham whom Satan bound for eighteen long years, be set free from this bondage on the Sabbath day?” 17 When he said this, all his opponents were put to shame, and the entire crowd was rejoicing at all the wonderful things being done by him.

The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. His career in law enforcement wasn't just about chasing criminals, it was about living on the edge of two worlds. He spent decades kicking in doors, infiltrating drug rings, and selling weapons to cartel figures under the guise of a hardened criminal. “I didn't just study crime,” Paul Milone says. “I lived in it, walked in it, and came out the other side.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Paul Milone, retired Omaha Police Department is our guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available for free on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most podcast platforms. From the gang unit to narcotics, and later sixteen years on one of the busiest SWAT teams in the Midwest, Milone became known as Ram One, the man tasked with breaching doors in high-stakes operations. He estimates he has broken down more than a thousand doors over the span of his career. “The adrenaline, the danger, it all became part of me,” he reflects. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . But his career wasn't only shaped by the criminals he pursued. It was the deaths of fellow officers and friends that changed him most deeply, both as a cop and as a human being. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. Milone recalls the loss of Officer Gregory Hamill, who contracted the H1N1 flu virus during a narcotics search in January 2014. Hamill's health deteriorated rapidly, and he died in February 2015 from complications. “Greg was one of us,” Milone shares. “We go into these homes thinking about the guns, the violence, the suspects. But sometimes, it's something you can't see that ends up taking your brother.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. He also carries the memory of Sergeant Jason “Tye” Pratt, who was shot in the head while helping search for a fleeing suspect in Omaha. Pratt died after a week in a coma. “Tye's death hit me hard,” Milone admits. “You train, you prepare, you do everything right, and still—violence in America claims another officer. These are the moments that never leave you.” Violence in America and the Numbers Behind It Milone's personal losses echo a troubling national trend. According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund's 2024 Fatalities Report, officer deaths in the line of duty rose by 25% from the previous year. In 2024 alone, 147 officers across the United States died while serving. Gunfire was the leading cause, claiming 52 officers' lives. Traffic-related deaths also spiked 48% from the previous year, with a particularly alarming rise in officers being struck by vehicles. The data paints a stark picture: law enforcement professionals are facing escalating dangers in every facet of their work. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “These numbers aren't just statistics,” Milone explains. “They're friends, they're fathers, mothers, sons, and daughters. For me, they're Greg. They're Tye. They're the guys you rode with yesterday who aren't coming back tomorrow.” From Omaha to the National Conversation The Omaha Police Department (OPD), Nebraska's largest law enforcement agency, has seen its share of tragedy and sacrifice. With more than 900 sworn officers protecting nearly half a million residents, Omaha represents the frontline reality of American policing. Milone, who spent much of his career with OPD, believes these stories must be told beyond the police world. “If the public doesn't understand the risks we face, then the deaths of these officers get buried in the news cycle,” he says. “We can't let that happen.”  The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. A Story Told Through Social Media and Podcasts Today, Milone shares his experiences through social media platforms like The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast's Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, connecting with audiences who may never have walked in a cop's boots. His story has also been featured across news outlets, podcasts on Apple and Spotify, and he often speaks about his journey in interviews. The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. He has even turned his reflections into a book, detailing the gritty reality of undercover work and the personal toll of losing colleagues to violence. “The book is not just about me,” Milone emphasizes. “It's about the men and women who didn't get to write theirs.” Why These Stories Matter Milone's life is a raw testimony to the cost of public safety in America. From hostage rescues and riots to the quieter, more haunting losses of fellow officers, his journey speaks to the reality behind the badge. “The public often sees the uniform, the badge, the authority,” Milone says. “What they don't see are the funerals. What they don't see are the empty seats at family dinners. What they don't see is how the deaths of police shape those of us who survive.” The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Carrying the Legacy Forward For Milone, sharing his story isn't about reliving the past, it's about ensuring those who paid the ultimate price are remembered. By speaking through social media, podcasts, and his book, he hopes to keep their names alive in a world where tragedy often gets overshadowed by the next headline. “I want people to know Greg Hamill. I want them to know Tye Pratt. Because their stories are America's story,” he says. “The violence in America isn't just something you read about. It's something we lived, and some of us didn't survive. That's the truth.” The Deaths of Police Shaped Him: His Story of Violence in America.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas Democrats say they are headed home and pretend they “raised awareness” on redistricting but they did not raise awareness in the way they intended. Instead, the story that got out the most was how Texas is simply playing catch-up on redistricting many big Democrat states had already grossly gerrymandered their Congressional seats to benefit Dems at the expense of Republican voters.

Jana Ireijo is an Hawaii born muralist whose passion as a conservation artist is born out of a love of art that started at a very young age. Jana creates vanishing murals using charcoal gathered from areas recently affected by wildfires.  This material, formed by the heat of the flames, carries the story of destruction and renewal that is intrinsic to the natural world.  She says her art is a reflection of the transience and impermanence of life and nature. Born in Honolulu in 1968, Jana has spent most of her life in transit leaving the island for California, before attending grad school in New York, then as a divorced woman to Connecticut where she raised her family, and finally returning to Hawai'i in 2023, where she has come full circle. Jana is the eldest of three children; she has a younger sister and brother. Her parents Rona August, a realtor, father James Ireijo, and step-father Joel August (both attorneys) encouraged Jana as a child to explore the arts, taking her to museums and galleries, and ensuring she always had access to arts and crafts. It was her mother that recognized a natural talent and told Jana she would become an artist. When the time came to choice her career pathway, Jana was drawn to advertising and after graduating from H. P. Baldwin High School (Maui) in 1986, she headed for the University of Hawai'i at Manoa to earn a BFA in Graphic Design in1991.  She then attended Pratt Institute, New York, where she earned an MFA Painting in 1999.  Jana took ten years off from her art to raise a family before turning her hand to public murals and developing her own style. Now back in the islands as an empty nester, Jana has immersed herself in her passion for environmental issues, such as the ocean, deep sea mining, and helping her community. She is also working on her first book for children entitled Vanishing Moon.  Jana's links:https://janaireijo.co/https://www.instagram.com/janaireijo Some favorite female artists:Gillian Jagger - sculptor - she was my thesis advisor at Pratt, and a huge influence in my practice.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Texas Democrats claimed that flooding disaster legislation should be the first priority of the called special session – then they left. Now, the disaster bills are ready for a vote and the sanctimonious Democrats are still gone, AWOL. More hypocrisy of the lowest order. (Much of the big bill, SB 1, is ineffective and simply ticks boxes of having done something.)Paxton files to remove 13 of the Democrat AWOL legislators from office by declaring their seats “vacant.”  It will be interesting to see where this goes with Abbott, Paxton, and Cornyn putting pressure on the issue.Paxton sued Beto Pancho's fundraising group for raising money to fund the Democrats' breaking of quorum. A district judge, late Friday, agreed and issued a TRO against the O'Rourke group. My guess is that group will not stop at all, it will just change some wording and continue on.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Beto Pancho O'Rourke makes it emphatically clear: When Democrats win they will move to legalize most all illegal aliens and give them citizenship.
