I was extremely fortunate to be the person catching that first pitch and it was an incredible experience. Never any doubt that @breitwoman would throw a strike in front of 42k fans as she has nerves of steel. Awesome job Kathleen! #tezos
Spencer Pratt Just Challenged Karen Bass to Debate EVERY Friday until the election.
Every single week. Out in the open. In front of the people of Los Angeles.
The ball is in your court, Karen.
Will you stand on a stage and defend your record?
Or will you do what you did when LA was burning and disappear to Ghana?
We eagerly await your response.
Senator John Fetterman says he was the only Democrat on the Senate's Fraud Exploratory Committee to vote in favor of opening an investigation into Malia Obama's suspicious USAID grants when she was still living at the White House in 2007.
"She was just a kid," said Fetterman, "So shouldn't we be looking at how a high school girl snatched $2.3 million for writing pen pal letters to a few dozen kids in Africa?"
Fetterman says the party's refusal to investigate its own people is the main reason he believes there will be a red wave in November.
"Nobody sees it coming, but mark my words."
California is a failed state. The level of corruption and inefficiency in government there is unmatched. Nobody else in the world pays so much to get so little.
The criminal justice system does not control crime; the people who run it make it intentionally costly and ineffective because they do not want it to exist. Locking someone up in CA costs about $128k a year, and California’s murderers and rapists in prison get better health care than you do.
The state also refuses to cooperate with federal immigration enforcement and pays billions per year in tax-funded benefits to illegal aliens.
And while prisoners get better care and amenities than most college students, thousands of California residents live in tents on sidewalks and under overpasses. And instead of rounding up addicts and making them detox, California distributes needles to them, which they throw on the ground or scatter on children’s playgrounds when they are done with them.
The rich live behind walls and guards and razor wire fences to compensate for the failure of the state to provide basic security while normal folks learn not to leave anything in their cars and not to get too used to their windows.
The schools are so bad nobody wants to send their kids to them, but staffing levels are rising despite falling enrollment. The state universities are flooded with students who cannot do middle-school math.
California is a dystopia; a model of failed governance. The state enacted progressive values as public policy and it has failed spectacularly.
And yet Gavin Newsom, who proudly talks about being so stupid he can barely read, is considered a leading Democratic presidential candidate:
This is easily the worst bodycam footage of a death in police custody I've ever seen and everyone who caused the world to melt down in 2020 couldn't care less because the victim is white.
RIP Marcia Lucas, ex wife of George Lucas and Oscar Winner for her editing of Star Wars.
She let rip on the Disney Sequels and every single word was true. They never did call her.
This video is PEAK comedy gold. I felt this in my SOUL. 😂
“Can’t stand these fckn bicyclists” — my brother, you just narrated my morning commute.
He nails it: Grown-ass men in skin-tight neon spandex outfits looking like a pack of radioactive Power Rangers, riding three-wide like it’s the Peloton Championships on a residential road. No one’s handing out medals at the cul-de-sac, Kyle. You’re not transporting a heart for surgery. You’re just expensive, slow-moving road geese with $10k carbon fiber attitudes.
One? Fine. Eight? That’s a tactical formation. That’s how civilizations fall.
I’m honking, I’m crying, I’m in agreement. Save us from the Lycra Legion. He nails every reason I can’t stand the bicycle militia.
Milei: “I have nothing against artists. I myself had a rock band. My problem is that if you need a government subsidy to make art, you're no longer an artist, you're a public employee.”
Joe Rogan can’t believe Karen Bass is predicted to win but wants Spencer Pratt to be the mayor of Austin if he loses in LA.
@joerogan "Imagine that. She burned down the entire Pacific Palisades by not having any water in the hydrants, and they’re like, yeah, but let’s give her another chance... I’m glad we moved, dude."
@tomsegura "Yeah."
The image depicts Katherine Cathey, the pregnant widow of U.S. Marine 2nd Lt. James “Jim” Cathey, lying on an air mattress on the floor in front of her husband’s flag-draped casket the night before his burial. A Marine honor guard stands vigil in the background.
Jim Cathey was tragically killed in action in Iraq in August 2005. Overcome with grief, Katherine refused to leave her husband’s casket. She requested to spend one final night with him. Two Marines went to great lengths to provide her with a makeshift bed, using a mattress and pillows on the floor. One Marine stood guard over her and the casket throughout the night.
This powerful and Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph was captured by Todd Heisler in 2005 as part of his series “Jim Comes Home” for the Rocky Mountain News.
❤️ WHAT A MOMENT ❤️
These kids woke up to find out the 1-of-1 card they pulled with their grandmother sold for $1,350,000.

We’ve entered twighlight zone. Jaxon Dart is 100% allowed to support whoever he wants. Abdul Carter can criticize if he wants. Just like people can criticize Abdul for some things he has done. I just don’t like hypocrites who love when athletes speak just as long as they agree
Apparently Google decided “showing current reality” might not be ideal for reelection optics of LA mayor? So now Google Maps is serving pre fire images for parts of LA us and our neighbors live.
