Ah, ah.

Good stuff there from the Council on American Islamic Relations.

Glad that federal taxpayers can subsidize that thanks to the government of California.

Meanwhile, government in California continues to do an extraordinary job.

The feds just raided a huge drug ring in Los Angeles's MacArthur Park.

According to the DOJ, 18 defendants, including two people law enforcement believes are the main sources of fentanyl and meth in LA's gang and drug infested MacArthur Park have now been arrested on a federal criminal complaint, charging them with a federal drug trafficking offense.

You may remember LA Mayor Karen Bass suggesting in July 2025 that ICE was wrong for being in MacArthur Park and trying to police crime.

Well, maybe, maybe at a certain point, even the people of L.A.

will decide to buck this sort of insanity.

So last night was the L.A.

mayoral debate.

That debate pitted Spencer Pratt, who's essentially a reality TV star, against a city councilwoman named Nithya Raman, as well as Mayor Bass.

Mayor Bass continues to be the frontrunner.

She continues to be the frontrunner in that mayoral race, which is nuts.

Spencer Pratt did a good job in this debate.

He pointed out that the LA City Council and the mayor's office have allowed homelessness to run rampant throughout the city.

And he made a pretty colorful remark to Nithya Raman about her policy, which would suggest

a $10.7 million infusion to renovate a 26-room motel into interim housing for the homeless.

It's $411,000 per apartment.

Karen Bass signed it.
