@sewellchan @latimes This is a such a huge loss for the Times. @marielgarzaLAT has always been fearless in speaking truth to power and focused on serving readers.

BIG NEWS: Federal judge upholds his tentative ruling in LAT's push to unseal search warrants in City Atty.'s Office/DWP corruption investigation https://t.co/tUWxpZ4AT8

L.A. needs a stronger, more independent Ethics Commission to prevent and penalize corruption and help rebuild public trust in scandal-plagued City Hall. But doing so requires voter support. Time is running out to get a reform package on the Nov. ballot. https://t.co/qoXRWCctOH

From the Brentwood townhouse to the downtown courthouse, the O.J. Simpson saga was part of my life, @latCarlaHall recounts. https://t.co/8tlYhoi5eI

While new shelters were originally slated for January, they may be installed as late as June as the city waits to resolve CEQA lawsuits.

We're minutes away from the mad rush that happens roughly once a year when the city opens the application window for speed humps. There's got to be a more efficient, equitable way to decide where these traffic calming bumps should go. https://t.co/i40sqzgUsY

LA City Councilmember Nithya Raman, a smart and courageous advocate for tenants rights and housing homeless people, wins out over $1.3 million of efforts from landlords and police and firefight unions to defeat her. https://t.co/1PMOIv2lyF

For decades, landfills have been the cheapest, easiest way to deal with the mountains of garbage people dispose of every year — just bury it in a canyon somewhere. Now we have to face the consequences. @latimesopinion https://t.co/ZhBsWm7h3F

Gascón has to do a better job articulating his progress in making his office more reflective of what Los Angeles voters wanted when they first elected him — a more just and equitable criminal justice system. https://t.co/U2Ev7HcFdK

If there was any doubt in Los Angeles City Hall about whether residents actually support bike lanes, bus lanes and other pedestrian and safety improvements on local streets, Tuesday’s election provided a definitive “yes.” https://t.co/SdPxLapXfg

LA City Councilmember Kevin de León spent nearly half-a-million dollars in public funds in 2023. In total, his council office (not his campaign) mailed nearly 1.2 million pieces of paper in nine months, spending over $460,000 in postage costs.

Two and a half years ago the @latimesopinion editorial board argued that prison was the wrong way to punish a deadly, destructive and really stupid gender reveal party.

Bewildering that just one state legislator from Los Angeles is on either the Senate or Assembly housing committees. Do they not want to be there?

We know what climate change will do to the coastline in the coming years. And we know what we have to do to ensure California doesn’t lose this essential rail connection. https://t.co/0a8wu4zozI

"If we can’t build fully affordable projects that don’t drain government coffers even on the edges of land zoned for single-family residences, then Angelenos should prepare for a permanent housing crisis." https://t.co/Y4PwpHLQ7r

@francineorr Noooo. You are such a wonderful photojournalist and human. This is the Times' great loss and I desperately hope it can be reversed so LA continues to benefit from your work.

[Kerry Cavanaugh @KerryC_LA]

@RadioChio I'm very sorry to hear. It's a terrific show and we need more local programs like it!
