✈️ I travel a lot and I’ve witnessed United Airlines Airlines rapidly improve over the last few years to the number one spot. I basically fly no one else now. This morning (my first class upgrade was comped), the Captain came out and gave a whole talk on the weather (before taking a vote to change our DC flight to Hawaii instead!!). Now that’s service!

‼️ WHAT?! Mayor Karen Bass Karen Bass had the AUDACITY to say “the governor’s race is over. We HAVE a governor and his name is Xavier Becerra” & said “we don’t NEED a November election” What?! Then she said Steve Hilton can’t win because he’s an immigrant with an ACCENT? Tell us Karen — how do you feel about Hispanic immigrants with accents and names you can’t properly pronounce? Do you not like them either? The same people who lecture us on “democracy” and “free elections” and “racial equity” seem to believe those things don’t apply to them!

💰 Hey Gavin Newsom You claim it’s wrong for ultra wealthy to borrow against their holdings “while reporting no taxable income.” But didn’t YOU illegally borrow $1 million from the billionaire Getty family while in public office against your house at BELOW MARKET interest, without reporting THAT as income? “The Getty loan was a third mortgage on the $3 million Pacific Heights home purchased nearly two years ago by Newsom and his wife, Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom. It's a five-year loan, with fixed 5.12 percent interest, no payment due for a year and annual payments after that.” Once again, rules for thee but not for me. You’re outrageously wealthy. As soon as you change your will to hand every cent you have to the federal government and NOT your kids, I’ll gladly support your taxes AND endorse your Gavin Newsom28 campaign. Until then, please sit down.

😳 WHOA! When asked about ending street homelessness, Karen Bass acknowledged that there can be NO homeless on the streets during the 2028 Olympics & admitted that the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT (which has jurisdiction as it’s a National Security Event) can & WILL clear the homeless! Dear President Donald J. Trump Donald J. Trump when does that authority kick in? We’d be very grateful if you step in sooner rather than later. We can do it properly & compassionately. THIS is a once-in-history opportunity to finally CLEAN LOS ANGELES!

🇺🇸 After President Trump’s announcement that gates will reopen at 945, a massive but peaceful crowd of many thousands is proceeding toward the gates. Spontaneous chants of “USA! USA!” No matter what happens, it shows the strength of the American spirit!

🔥 Mayor Karen Bass Karen Bass thinks we are VERY stupid In her panicked comments to reporters, doubled down on her claim that she didn’t put out a falsified report on the Palisades Fire “What would be the purpose for covering up a report that I ordered?!” Maybe saving her career?

Embattled California gubernatorial candidate Katie Porter Team Katie is once again pushing the bankrupt & destructive narrative that homelessness is ONLY about housing. Sure, Katie. That drug addicted criminal from Kentucky who stole my packages just needs a free condo.

🚨 GAVIN NEWSOM GASLIGHT ALERT 🚨 In his latest Newsom for President 2028 (Parody) campaign podcast, Gavin Newsom has the audacity to say that “the notion that [California] is a high tax state is BS. This notion that everyone’s leaving is complete BS.” The only complete BS here is what you say!

🔥 Mayor Karen Bass Karen Bass has probably hired Zohran Kwame Mamdani coaches to help her deal with the public. Remember this video of how she froze at LAX when returning from Ghana to a burned-down Palisades? Now, confronted by her falsification of the fire report, she’s all SMILES😊

This is Bergamot Station in City of Santa Monica - the largest public arts complex in the Western US - small, independent galleries, artist lofts, comedy club/school, a place open to all. Owned by taxpayers. The DSA-aligned council voted in secret to tear it down for homeless housing. 700+ units. Dead serious. What else are they tearing down: -TWO massive parking structures that serve the beach & 3rd St Promenade (one is already gone) for $2 MILLION/unit (including land value) homeless housing (which we pay for) -City’s public ICE SKATING ⛸️ RINK where families & kids all gather during winter months. It’s a gem. GONE to house more homeless on some of the world’s most expensive land -THE ENTIRE SANTA MONICA AIRPORT (I kid you not!!), pulling a bait and switch, claiming it’ll be a massive park while knowing there’s no budget, existing parks are full of bums, and state law (Surplus Land Act) will force it to become… you guess it! Homeless and affordable housing. On our dime. -And councilman Ellis Raskin recently made a serious proposal (which the city is STUDYING!) to REMOVE THE ENTIRE 10 FREEWAY that runs through Santa Monica. You know, tens of thousands of cars a day, the ONLY route people in Malibu and northern coast have to connect to LA! The homeless industrial complex is alive and well in Santa Monica, where bums get free drug needles and are IMMUNE FROM CRIMINAL PROSECUTION for most crimes if… they accept free taxpayer funded housing a couple blocks from the beach. You can’t make this up! This must end! Thanks to Santa Monica Coalition John Alle Kimberly Brooks Derrick Townsend #DT4SM Dick Lucas 🇺🇸 & many others for drawing attention to this mess.
