I don’t understand why both political parties’ candidates aren’t running ads like this for every midterm race? Govt competence; zero culture war nonsense.

The blatant, dangerous demographic mixing here may be the last straw. Imagine a loved one being forced to sit next to a Spirit customer. Scary times.

Pete Crow-Armstrong with an UNFORGETTABLE performance at Dodger Stadium today

Luckily for him, the 50,000+ fans in attendance were taking selfies and not paying attention so they missed it

Whenever this cycle ends, the Citrini “report” will be an extremely funny relic of the mania like a Bored Ape or Peloton’s stock chart.

The DoorDash analysis is a third grader’s understanding of marketplaces.

BREAKING: @RickCarusoLA tells me he’s “reconsidering” a run for Mayor of Los Angeles. This comes after a @latimes report claims @MayorOfLA Karen Bass ordered the Palisades Fire after-action report to be watered down.

A truly terrible parenting take.

Sleep training is 2-3 nights of some crying, then YEARS of sleeping peacefully for much longer than their non-sleep-trained peers.

Sleep is one of the (if not THE) most important thing for child development, and helping them learn to get a full nights sleep is one of your essential early jobs as a parent.

If you aren’t willing to work through a couple evenings of crying to support their development, you’re prioritizing your comfort over their health.

And if you think a couple nights of discomfort can cause lifelong trauma, you have no respect for the resiliency of humans.

This is without even touching on how awful it is for parents (physically and psychologically) to go for years without a full nights sleep…

Regardless of how you feel about partisan redistricting, sending heavily armed and masked ICE agents to Governor Newsom’s rally to intimidate people is an outrageous, despicable and un-American assault on free speech and the right to free assembly.

America hasn’t been perfect. It’s made grave mistakes. But there is no country that has ever done more for improving the world. It breaks my heart how unappreciative Americans across the ideological spectrum are of that. Much of the left rejects we’ve ever been good for the world, much of the right wants to stop being good for the world. Shame on all of them.

[Rick J. Caruso @RickCarusoLA]

How the head of DWP still has a job is unthinkable. Incompetence at the highest level. Only in LA does failure this big come with job security.

Seven months. Empty reservoirs. Dry hydrants. The more we learn about the pre-fire failures of our city leaders, the more baffling the total lack of accountability at DWP becomes.

DWP didn’t plan. They didn’t act. And no one has been held accountable. Mayor Bass appointed the head of DWP. It’s time she acts—and fires her. Leadership means responsibility. We won’t see better results until there is change.

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

The country is 100% behind the president on fixing a global system of tariffs that has disadvantaged the country. But, business is a confidence game and confidence depends on trust.

President @realDonaldTrump has elevated the tariff issue to the most important geopolitical issue in the world, and he has gotten everyone’s attention. So far, so good.

And yes, other nations have taken advantage of the U.S. by protecting their home industries at the expense of millions of our jobs and economic growth in our country.

But, by placing massive and disproportionate tariffs on our friends and our enemies alike and thereby launching a global economic war against the whole world at once, we are in the process of destroying confidence in our country as a trading partner, as a place to do business, and as a market to invest capital.

The president has an opportunity to call a 90-day time out, negotiate and resolve unfair asymmetric tariff deals, and induce trillions of dollars of new investment in our country.

If, on the other hand, on April 9th we launch economic nuclear war on every country in the world, business investment will grind to a halt, consumers will close their wallets and pocket books, and we will severely damage our reputation with the rest of the world that will take years and potentially decades to rehabilitate.

What CEO and what board of directors will be comfortable making large,
long-term, economic commitments in our country in the middle of an economic nuclear war?

I don’t know of one who will do so.

When markets crash, new investment stops, consumers stop spending money, and businesses have no choice but to curtail investment and fire workers.

And it is not just the big companies that will suffer. Small and medium size businesses and entrepreneurs will experience much greater pain. Almost no business can pass through an overnight massive increase in costs to their customers. And that’s true even if they have no debt, and, unfortunately, there is a massive amount of leverage in the system.

Business is a confidence game. The president is losing the confidence of business leaders around the globe. The consequences for our country and the millions of our citizens who have supported the president — in particular low-income consumers who are already under a huge amount of economic stress — are going to be severely negative. This is not what we voted for.

The President has an opportunity on Monday to call a time out and have the time to execute on fixing an unfair tariff system.

Alternatively, we are heading for a self-induced, economic nuclear winter, and we should start hunkering down.

May cooler heads prevail.

We need to rebuild our communities. Government cannot do this alone and this is not a time for politics. We need access to the best ideas, resources, and people to build back better and stronger than before. We’re launching Steadfast LA today to make sure the rebuild has the full power of all of us and we’re getting the best possible solutions implemented faster.

Fellow Angelenos,

The devastation to our city and community is unthinkable. The colossal efforts of our Los Angeles Fire Department cannot be overstated, and lives, homes, and businesses have been saved thanks to their unwavering commitment to fighting a good fight. But this fight is far from over. Due to budget deficits in the Los Angeles Fire Department, which left them under-resourced, the inconceivable has become reality.

Los Angeles Fire Chief Crowley and her team of firefighters and paramedics are desperately in need of funding. Today, Tina and I pledge $5 million to the Los Angeles Fire Department Foundation, to be used at its discretion, so that Chief Crowley and her team can continue their heroic work across the City and the greater Los Angeles area. I am calling on all of those who are blessed with the means to give back at any level and respectfully ask you to join in reaching the goal of $20 million in donations for the Foundation.

This funding will ensure essential equipment reaches our emergency responders, including structure fire helmets, personal protective equipment, bulldozers, and multi-functional fast response vehicles that are utilized in both firefighting and medical triage. Together, we can send critical support to the front lines and protect our community from further catastrophe and hopefully prevent another one in the future.

The outpouring of support the city has seen over the past week gives me hope that when we stand together, we win. My family and I are so grateful for all this city has given us and we will always stand shoulder to shoulder with fellow Angelenos.

Let’s stay diligent, steadfast, and committed to saving and rebuilding. Please visit https://t.co/KBj3vETfW4 to donate.

God bless our great city,
Rick
