The anger and frustration are justified. The official vote count says @spencerpratt fell short of the general election, due to the surge of mail-in ballots that shifted the results at the last moment. But this fight is far from over.
There is a direct, legal path for him to become Mayor: a recall of whoever wins in November. Both Bass and Raman are cut from the same ideological cloth, and public dissatisfaction with their records is already widespread.
Here are the facts on timing and process:
The new Mayor will be sworn in on December 14. California law requires 3-month waiting period before a recall can begin. That opens the window in mid-March 2027 to file Notice of Intention.
Circulation of petitions starts 28 days later. We then have 120 days to gather approximately 330,000 valid signatures—15 percent of registered Los Angeles voters. Once certified, the City Council must schedule the special recall election within 88 to 125 days.
On that ballot, voters will decide whether to remove the Mayor and, if so, select a replacement. Spencer’s name will be on it, backed by the bipartisan momentum that has grown sharply since the mail-in ballot issues surfaced. The recalled mayor CANNOT run to replace herself. They’re DONE. And DSA/communists wouldn’t dare run someone against their own people. A blank slate - an election without Bass OR Raman is >50% answer “YES” to the recall question.
Angelenos across party lines now see the pattern, and both potential incumbents remain deeply unpopular.
This is how we correct the outcome. The energy and organization already exist. And unlike the local political machine, we can fundraise nationally—supporters from every corner of the country who want to see real change in Los Angeles can contribute directly. AND stay ahead of real or potential fraud this time.
The path is clear. The support is building. We have the opportunity to set this right.
Alysa Liu is perfection. Not just because she won two Olympic gold medals with an astonishing performance that blurred the line between sport and art, but because she reminded the world what it truly means to be present in the moment to celebrate life as it is, without being burdened by the external or the superfluous.
Her graceful performance, followed by her spirited 'theatrics' in Italy, has taken the world by storm, and quite rightfully so.
I only hope there are more like her. More athletes and more people. Who compete with joy, live with authenticity, and inspire others simply by being fully themselves. The world needs that kind of fearless, wholehearted energy more and more...
Forget Botox.
A study from Northwestern University had 16 women do facial exercises for 30 minutes a day.
After 20 weeks, dermatologists said they looked 3 years younger.
Here are 6 moves they did (that gave them fuller cheeks and tighter skin):
Joy is a competitive super power.
Alysa Liu retired from figure skating at 16.
She was tired of not not having fun, tired of being consumed by her sport.
She came back two years later with a new goal: to have as much fun on the ice as possible. And now she’s an Olympic gold medalist.
Liu won her first national title when she was just 13. But by 16, after competing in the 2022 Olympics, she decided she’d had enough and stepped away. She said pressure and losing her identity trying to be an elite athlete made it all miserable.
But then, she said she went on a ski trip that reminded her just how much fun she could have doing a sport. Something in her brain clicked. Maybe she could bring fun to figure skating. Maybe she could approach it in a way that could be full of joy and life and love.
She unretired at 18 and won a world championship the next year. At 20, she was ready to face these Olympic games differently than in 2022.
Liu went into the women’s figure skating final in third place. After her short program, she said:
“Even if I mess up and fall, that’s totally okay, too. I’m fine with any outcome, as long as I’m out there.”
One of the greatest competitive advantages is having fun. People love to romanticize the athlete, artist, or entrepreneur who has a chip on their shoulder, fueled by anger and resentment.
But the truth is that if you’re not having fun, you are not going to last long at whatever it is you do, and you certainly won’t get the best out of yourself. There’s a foolish idea that you either have to be full of intensity or full of joy. But that’s nonsense.
It’s no surprise one of the first things out of Alysa’s mouth after her free skate was: “That was so much fun!”
Joy and intensity can coexist, and in the best performers, they almost always do.
Alysa is unapologetically authentic and true to her values. She has said where she used to skate to win and be technically perfect, she now uses competition as a chance to show her art, to have fun, and to put herself out there.
She’s a fierce athlete with an infectious sense of joy in her sport.
And she broke USA's 24-year gold medal draught in women’s figure skating doing it.
Excellence requires focus, determination, a little bit of crazy, at times obsession, and living a mundane lifestyle that many people would find boring.
But excellence also requires that you find deep joy in your craft, that you learn how to have fun while working hard.
What makes for excellence—and not just in sports, but in anything—is the combination of intensity and joy. It’s the latter that makes the former sustainable.

Dear baby Jesus
I don’t ask for much
Just grant me, in 2026, the calm and the nonchalance of this girl to face the fires of life
That would be enough for me 🔥
A girl said jumping up and down for ~50 reps every morning would change your life.
I tried it for a week and… yeah
Movement, rhythm, play…all profoundly pro-metabolic.
You can literally trick your nervous system into joy. You can psyop yourself into feeling good.
Repeat after me: I’m going to OUT-DISCO the horrors of modernity!
Happy all time high to those that celebrate. Thoughts and prayers to the haters and losers that have been calling the top weekly for a year. Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure, it’s not your fault!
Charlie Kirk was a hero to this country and a faithful servant of God.
Every day that we continue his mission is an honor to his memory.
We've got it from here, my friend.
Today could well end up representing us as having arrived at a precipice, just ahead of the next set of significant events ready to go down.
It feels truly historic.
