Some personal news: I'm writing a new book! An investigation of a triple homicide in Orange County in 2016. A crime that crystallizes the moment.
The title: The Fullerton Furry Murders, for Kensington Books. More on my Substack.

In 2 weeks, the 50th Players Ball will be held in Chicago, a pimp convention and awards ceremony. There will be no protests. We’re all righteously up in arms about Andrew Tate but pimp culture generally gets a pass. Why the double standard?

The nationalist backlash that’s brewing in Britain and Europe seems destined for violence. Before we get there, let me share a few unfiltered thoughts about what’s gone wrong and how we might find a way out of this spiral.

@elonmusk You’re mocking the left for not accepting election results when it’s Trump who didn’t accept the 2020 results and still doesn’t. Facts. Remember those?
What’s incredible is that the U.S. Forest Service & National Weather Service a full week ago perfectly predicted that extreme winds would spark serious fires in the LA region *on Tuesday.* These gov agencies got it exactly correct, yet Karen Bass still left for her Africa trip.
WOW 🚨 Research showing Governor Gavin Newsom is lying about California wildfire prevention spending
Investigation shows ONLY 12% of prevention work that Newsom claims to have been completed actually got completed. Where did the money go??
The state is spending HUGE amounts of money on fire prevention “And as with most things California, the money never does what they say it's going to do”
- The state's firefighting agency has spent over $30 billion on battling and preventing wildfires since 2017, and that budget has grown 72% over that time period
An investigation — found the governor has misrepresented his accomplishments and even disinvested in wildfire prevention. Quote, Newsroom has claimed the 35 priority projects carried out as a result of his executive order resulted in fire prevention work on 90,000 acres, but the state's own data showed the actual number is only 11,399. Where his priorities are, where all that money is going we can only conjecture”
THATS ONLY 12% of what Gavin Newsom claimed
“back in 2014, California voters backed a $7.5 billion water bond, and more than a decade later, more than half of those projects have not been completed. Our first responders and our firefighters who are trying to battle this, there's no water in the Palisades. There's no water coming out of the fire hydrants. This is an absolute mismanagement by the city. “
“are. I think it's time for better and more honest leadership in California.”
Look at these reptiles thanking each other. For what? They may as well have lit the match. Why was there no water in the hydrants right next to the ocean, in the PACIFIC palisades? The failure of our leadership in LA is sickening.
The impact of these fires and winds are devastating.
I just got off the phone with @POTUS and discussed an urgent path forward towards recovery for the thousands of families impacted.
Thank you @CAgovernor and Senator @AlexPadilla4CA for your continued support for our city.
A brief, factual thread about the POLICY issues around the Palisades fire. I will stick to what I know personally. I am covering for @BreitbartNews and available to help @FoxNews, @MSNBC, or anyone needing information and ideas, including the incoming Trump administration. (1/9)
Disasters of this scale require a military response. What is the point of the world’s greatest military if it sits on its hands while America burns? We have drones to kill but not drones to put out fires? Fuck the leadership class. If anyone should burn…
What an absolute disgrace this woman is. It ought to be a criminal offense, this degree of dereliction and unaccountability. What is the LA mayor doing in Ghana in the first place? RESIGN #KarenBass
This is the most damning video of a politician being questioned during a disaster that I’ve ever seen. This @SkyNews reporter just absolutely shredded the incompetent Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. It’s truly a work of art. 👏👏👏
