Stop.
California just tried to bury Spencer Pratt, burned his house, rejected 18,000 of his voters, allegedly found his ballots in a dumpster, which honestly is on brand for a city that can’t even keep its own lights on during a wildfire.
They called the race early.
They popped champagne.
Karen Bass and Nikki Ramen probably slept pretty good that night.
And then Steve Hilton grabbed a microphone.
And California’s entire political machine collectively forgot how to breathe because the Republican nominee for governor of California just went on national television and told the entire world he wants Spencer Pratt, the man that they tried to erase inside of his administration.
Called Spencer Pratt’s exclusion a travesty.
Said his door was 100% open.
Meanwhile, President Donald J.
Trump, you know, the sitting president of the United States, maybe you’ve heard of him, publicly accused California of cheating like dogs and floated sending in the feds.
That’s right, guys.
The feds to Los Angeles where they’re still counting the ballots 2 weeks later somewhere, Karen Bass is refreshing her resume.
Well, today we’re going to go ahead and unpack every bit of it.
The fraud receipts, the guilty pleas, the dumpster, the duck, all of it.

Spoiler alert, it’s not fine.
Now, here’s a narrative that they were selling.
Okay, Pratt ran.
Pratt lost.
Pratt goes home.
Everybody claps.
Democracy works.
Good night.
Except with 84% of votes counted.
84%, guys.
Pratt was only 3,000 votes behind second place.
3,000 votes in a city of 4 million people with hundreds of thousands of ballots that were still outstanding.
They called it anyway.
And then 2 weeks later, they’re still counting.
2 weeks, one city, one election.
I mean, you know what else gets counted faster than Los Angeles ballots? Library books, expired coupons, the number of times Karen Bass has blamed somebody else for something, right? Look, the machine did not beat Spencer Pratt on merit, it ran out the clock.
And even that barely worked, which pretty much tells you everything you need to know about how wrong or how strong this machine actually is.
Spoiler alert, not very.
So, Steve Hilton won this primary, Republican nominee for governor of California.
Already a headline.
But what came next? This is the part that made certain people in Sacramento, California choke on their oat milk.
The vote has been counted.
Former HHS Secretary Javier Bera is currently in the lead with Republican Steve Hilton close behind.
But the LA mayor’s race, different story.
78% of the vote is in.
Karen Bass has already advanced to the runoff, but now Lithia Ramen sits only one percentage point behind Spencer Pratt for second place.
Anita Bogle is live in Los Angeles.
She’s got more on all this.
Anita, hey there, Joey.
So yeah, the counting continues.
Still no solid answers as a couple of upstart candidates look to break the Democrats grip on power in the Golden State.
In the governor’s race, as you mentioned, former HHS Secretary Democrat Javier Bera advanced to the general election on Friday with former Fox host Republican Steve Hilton behind him.
And in third place, billionaire progressive Tommy Styer, who has spent hundreds of millions of his own funds on the race.
This morning, Steve Hilton says he’s ready to be governor.
The most important thing is that actually we’re very confident now that we’ll be in the top two.
There’s not really any realistic possibility for the billionaire climate fanatic Tommy Styer to catch up.
That means that in November, Californians will have a real choice.
In the LA mayor’s race, Mayor Karen Bass still leads the pack, followed by former reality star Spencer Pratt.
But progressive city council woman Nitia Ramen.
She’s racking up votes as thousands that have come in in the last several days have gone to her.
But just a couple of hours ago, Spencer Pratt posted this on X, saying, quote, “Remember everyone, we are still in the lead, and we’ve got all the way till July 6th to keep counting.
They’re not the only ones who know where to find votes.
” Now, Pratt is currently in second place, but you know, anything could happen with all of these outstanding votes and so many days left to count.
Meanwhile, according to the California Secretary of State’s website, you don’t have to have a driver’s license or a passport to register to vote in California.
You can have all kinds of alternative forms of ID, like a gym membership card or a governmentissued prescription or an insurance card, just to name a few.
The DOJ sent a lawyer to observe the vote counting process in LA on Friday.
The department currently has a lawsuit before the 9inth Circuit Court of Appeals to open up and audit the voter roles in California.
So far, the state has refused to comply.
There are an estimated 3 million plus ballots left to count statewide.
So, it sounds crazy, but it could be a few more weeks, Joey, until we know something.
Back to you.
That is the California election.
Thank you, Anita Bogle.
Okay.
And on Tuesday, voters in four states are heading to the polls to cast their ballots in some primary elections.
On national television, Steve Hilton, he said he would love to bring Spencer Pratt into his administration, called his exclusion from the runoff a travesty.
He said that Spencer Pratt had some of the most serious, most well-developed homelessness policy that he had ever seen.
Said that his door was, and I quote, 100% open.
And then, as if that wasn’t enough, he looked into the camera and he told California that LA voters are now stuck between choosing an obviously incompetent incumbent and an ideological extremist.
No choice at all if you ask me.
Steve Hilton, Republican nominee for governor.
He said that.
He said it out loud with his whole he said it with his chest on television, guys.
He listened to Kevin Hart when he said it.
Somewhere in a very expensive Los Angeles office, a very important person stared at that headline and quietly requested something stronger than coffee.
Now, I don’t know what that might be.
I mean, it is California.
It is LA.
I mean, I’m just saying it wasn’t decaf.
Now, let’s rewind for a second because this story didn’t start on election night.
Spencer Pratt’s house burned in the Palisades fire.
Not metaphorically.
It actually burned down to the ground.
While LA leadership fumbled the water supply, pointed fingers, and held very serious press conferences about absolutely nothing, Spencer Pratt’s home was ash.
So naturally, he ran for mayor.
Not with a focus group, not with a consultant charging $800 an hour to tell him what color tie to wear.
He ran with a phone, a camera, and a homeless plan that was so solid that even Steve Hilton, the Republican nominee for governor.
He read it and he said, “Yes, this exactly this.
” Wow.
His videos hit 5.
5 million views.
His campaign went nuclear.
And the establishment’s response was to reject 18,000 of his voters ballots over signature issues, which is a very official sounding way of saying, “Hey, we just don’t like where this is going.
” And so because they didn’t like the votes, they just went ahead and disqualified 18,000 of Spencer Pratt’s votes.
They burned his house.
They slowwalked the votes.
They called his race early.
He posted a duck and got a million views overnight.
This guy is not going away.
And honestly, good, because clearly nobody else in the city is doing anything useful.
Now, right now, think of one person in your life who watched California burn and felt completely out of options.
Send them this video.
Not to make them angrier.
I mean, they’re probably already there.
send it to them so that they know that something is actually moving.
Just go ahead and hit share.
So now we need to do something radical.
Okay, let’s talk about the facts.
I know it’s pretty radical, right? So fact.
A real human being, not a rumor, not a Reddit post, has already been arrested and already pleaded guilty to paying homeless individuals to register to vote and sign ballots petitions in Los Angeles.
They’re already in court, guys.
They already plead guilty.
This is not a That is called This is literally called a conviction.
Not a theory, not a hunch.
A court record with someone’s actual name on it.
Fraudulent petitioners on Skid Row are now paying the homeless to forge names, forge addresses, and forge signatures of registered voters.
So, do you want to sign? Okay.
The first I’m Joseph Albbright.
Okay.
The first name? Joseph Albbright.
What? What are you using? Teresa.
Teresa.
No, I’m going to give you an address to write.
Okay.
Direction.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Quickly becoming a widespread scheme that can be found on almost every street corner in downtown Los Angeles.
And then 18,000 Pratt ballots were flagged and bounced for quote unquote signature verification.
Spencer Pratt was 3,000 votes behind.
You don’t need a calculator for that math.
You need a calendar because apparently Los Angeles does.
And then nearly 700 ballots allegedly found in a dumpster.
All Spencer Pratt’s a dumpster.
Come on, guys.
Does anybody smell fraud around here? Not a ballot box, not a secure facility, a garbage receptacle, which is apparently where democracy goes in California or specifically Los Angeles when it gets inconvenient.
Well, Bill Essley, the FBI, and the DOJ, they’re all being called in right now.
And with Donald Trump in the White House actively calling California out for all this nonsense, those calls are not going to voicemail.
So, I want to I want to look at the map, okay? Because the map is very, very, very interesting.
Look, Nikki Ramen couldn’t win her own district, couldn’t win her own precinct, but somehow somehow she swept every single area clustered around downtowns LA’s homeless encampments.
Every single one.
Meanwhile, someone already plead guilty for paying homeless individuals to register in those exact neighborhoods.
Now, we’re not connecting the dots here.
We’re just noticing that the dots are very close together, and they’re all pointing in the same direction.
Now, here’s the part that really should make every taxpaying Angelenino absolutely furious.
People who were in some documented cases registered to vote five times by one individual just help determine who runs a multi-billion dollar city.
Now, for the people who pay for that city, mind you, with their taxes that they actually file.
It’s kind of like letting somebody else order for you at a restaurant, except they don’t eat there, they don’t pay, and they order something that you’re allergic to.
And somehow this is called democracy.
Does this sound insane to anybody else? I can’t be the only one.
This one, this one really deserves its own moment.
So Jimmy Kimmel, late night television self-appointed guardian of Los Angeles enlightenment, publicly offered to rent Spencer Pratt a U-Haul to leave the city.
That was a bold move, Jimmy Kimmel.
Very edgy, very brave.
Spencer Pratt’s response, I missed the part of the story where I don’t need a U-Haul because I have nothing left to pack.
His house burned in the palisades fire.
He has nothing left to move.
The internet completely detonated.
Jimmy Kimmel went dark.
He went quiet, which for a professional talker on television, this is quite the achievement, mind you.
So now we wait to hear from Spencer Pratt.
You know, he clearly promised that if Karen Bass or Nithia Ramen were elected mayor, he’s going to move out of LA.
He said he was done with LA.
And Spencer, if you’re watching, we are so so sorry to see you go.
What we do know, we’re going to miss the hell out of you.
You’re a man of your word and you’ve got to go.
You said you were going to go and I know things might be tight right now, especially out of state donation money is running out.
Moving is expensive.
So, to help you out, um, we rented you a U-Haul.
This is It has plenty of room.
It’s got so two beds, tables, chairs, all your crystals, whatever you want.
staff spent the whole day decorating for you.
So, and everybody that will notice you and wave goodbye as you leave.
And I hope that you and Heidi are happy wherever it is you go.
Maybe you could be mayor there.
Or maybe just run for mayor and finish in third place there.
It could be fun for your new reality show season 2.
Either way, Masletov and Goodbye Spencer Pratt.
Let us know if you want it.
We’ll drop it off right in front of the Bair Hotel.
Now, here’s the life lesson embedded in this entire exchange.
Do not attempt to clown a man who literally lost everything and is still showing up.
You will not win.
You cannot win.
The math just doesn’t work in your favor.
Jimmy Kimmel, he’s a smart man.
Very smart man.
Very, very funny.
Very well- paid man.
He did not think that one through.
Uh, sorry, Jimmy.
I try again.
So, after the race was called, when most people would probably go dark, maybe even issue a gracious concession, maybe cry into a very expensive pillow, Spencer Pratt posted a photo, a duck, just a duck, sitting on a pond, completely calm, serene, even on the very water that was deliberately withheld from the Palisades neighborhoods during the fire that destroyed his home during the wildfires.
Now, the post got nearly a million views, 46,000 likes overnight.
The internet figured it out immediately.
calm on the surface, completely and absolutely paddling like a madman underneath.
Not quitting, not retreating, not broken, sitting duck, please.
That’s the other guys.
That is Karen Bass at a press conference.
That’s Nikki Ramen in her own district.
No.
Spencer Pratt posted a bird and communicated more in one image than most politicians manage in an entire campaign.
And California’s ruling class, they posted nothing, which when you think about it, is basically their governing strategy anyway.
Not much has changed now that the campaign portion of my mission to save Los Angeles is coming to a close and I’m moving on to the next more interesting phase.
Listen, I’ve spent a lot of time slaying everybody.
I’ve ridiculed everyone on the roster and I just want to say from the bottom of my heart, I’d like to take the chance to apologize to absolutely nobody.
You think you can get rid of me that easily? I know a lot of dim-witted jerks thought I was in this for a griff that I was going to roll up and leave town if I didn’t get into city hall.
It’s just not fair.
Hey morons, I didn’t get in this for political power.
I got in this to expose this corrupt machine and nothing has changed.
You enjoy your worthless meetings in city hall.
Nathy, you have all this information.
You’re running for mayor.
Show what you’re really about or get the [ __ ] out of the race.
I’m going to be lighting you up every single day and now I don’t have to worry about offending CNN viewers.
I don’t have a campaign laws hamstringing me now.
It’s more.
It’s zero hour for Los Angeles.
Angelenos are now stuck with two morons responsible for all their problems.
And they have to choose between dumb and dumber.
That’s not a choice.
That’s the machine protecting the machine.
And now every problem that plagues Los Angeles because of these two corrupt communists is going to accelerate.
And the city will tumble headlong into the abyss.
You have no idea how many major developers, hotelers, business owners, entrepreneurs have been texting me saying they’re packing up and leaving town.
More of your favorite restaurants will be shuttering.
That means less tax revenue.
That means the city has to cut services.
More potholes, less firefighters, less police patrols, more criminals, more drug addicts terrorizing your communities.
And we haven’t ended it.
You have no idea how bad things are about to get for this city.
Look at this place already.
Weeds growing from every cracking crevice, graffiti over every square inch of public space, garbage, drugs, feces, burned up dogs, burned downs, abandoned storefronts.
This city is a mess, and you’re about to reward the arsonists who torch a place with four more years of destruction.
I know he’s very bitter.
My goal hasn’t changed.
I’ve been laser focused on stopping these commie animals, and I will stop them.
If you think we uncovered a lot of fraud and evil in the campaign, just wait.
We have some recordings of one of your exalted candidates doing and saying something that would make her resign in shame.
I was saving it for the general election.
Go ahead and pick your demon, certify your choice, and then you get to see it.
So, Karen Nithia, ask yourself, is it possible that one of your employees may have a recording of you doing or saying something that would force you to resign in disgrace? Hope you sleep well at night over the next 5 months because you know who hasn’t slept well at all for the last 17 months? My mom.
All my neighbors in the Palisades.
All the moms who worry about their kids walking past drug addicts in front of their schools.
All the business owners getting crushed in the LA economy worried that they can’t stay in business and feed their kids.
Angelenos have been struggling for years now.
All while corrupt politicians and fraudulent NOS’s profit off the misery and fleece us for the tax dollars.
Well, now we’re flipping the script.
I want all of you awake at night sweating and worried about 5:00 a.
m.
when the FBI blazers busting the door, breaking open your office because I assure you they’re coming.
You think your election was going to stop me? If you want to stop me, you’re going to have to [ __ ] kill me.
So when the sitting president of the United States calls your election a fraud publicly, you feel that Donald Trump, he went on record.
He said California was cheating like dogs.
Called the Spencer Pratt situation a disgrace.
Strongly I suggested strongly that it may be time to send in the federal government.
Voted in favor of that.
Uh it’s it’s really it’s really a shame and it’s so bad for the country.
You’d almost think they hate the country because they can’t they’re not stupid people.
You can’t cheat like they did.
And look at the election in California as an example.
After a week, they determined that the kid who’s leading and had all the mojo, all of a sudden he doesn’t make the runoff.
And then I I hit them hard on that.
But I started talking about Steve Hilton, who’s a fantastic guy.
And I saw them say it was going to be two weeks before they knew.
And I started hitting them.
It’s going to happen to Steve Hilton, too.
It’s watch.
You got to watch.
And they approved Steve Hilton very quickly.
They didn’t want it.
There was too much heat on him.
The only reason he got approved.
He had all the votes he needed probably to be first place.
But the only reason they approved Steve Hill, it was going to be two weeks.
They said it.
And then they approved him that night because the heat was on them cuz they’re cheating dogs.
And you can’t have a great country when that happens.
That’s why Los Angeles, that’s why that state is in such trouble.
the most.
Now, some people, they’re going to say that this is just some political noise.
Those same people have not been paying attention.
Apparently, Trump is not a private citizen tweeting from his toilet.
He is the president of the United States.
He has a Department of Justice.
He has a federal bureau of investigation.
He has an executive authority that Gavin Newsome cannot Instagram his way out of.
And Karen Bass cannot charm away with a a ribbon cutting ceremony.
Federal involvement in local election fraud.
This isn’t some wild fantasy.
It has happened before.
It happens when the evidence meets the threshold.
The evidence here includes a guilty plea already on the books.
18,000 rejected ballots, dumpster allegations under review, and a sitting president who has made it very publicly clear he is watching.
Karen Bass is currently running for re-election.
Good luck with that.
Now, let’s think about what’s actually on the table here.
Steve Hilton is the Republican nominee for governor of California.
If he wins, and that purple primary map actually suggests that this race is way more competitive than anyone in Sacramento really wants to admit, Steve Hilton could control state funding to every city in California.
Every dollar, every allocation, every grant, every check that Los Angeles needs to function.
Now, put Spencer Pratt inside that administration.
What happens? Homelessness zar, senior adviser, lieutenant governor.
Pick a title.
Any title.
The point is, the man who was blocked from the LA mayoral ballot becomes a statewide power player with direct budget authority over the very city that tried to erase him.
They shut one door.
Sure, Steve Hilton just opened a much larger one, and it leads directly into the building where the money lives.
The city of Los Angeles spent months trying to sideline Spencer Pratt.
They may have accidentally handed Spencer Pratt the keys to their funding.
This is not a loss.
This is a chess move that they just didn’t see coming, which given how Los Angeles has been run lately, honestly tracks.
So now I want to go ahead and land this blame.
Okay, game over.
But not for who they think.
They burned the man’s house, rejected 18,000 of Spencer Pratt’s voters, allegedly dumped his ballots in a garbage can, paid homeless people to vote against him, and someone plead guilty to that already.
They called the race 2 weeks before the counting even finished.
And the result of all of this effort, he’s on television with the Republican nominee for governor of California.
Trump is threatening federal oversight of the city that tried to beat him.
The DOJ is being called in.
The guilty piled and 5 and a half million people watched his campaign videos.
Look, the machine threw everything that they had at him.
And the duck is still on the pond.
California’s political establishment, they’re very good at making inconvenient things disappear.
Tell me about it.
Candidates, uh, accountability, water pressure during fire, during wildfires.
Spencer Pratt did not disappear.
And now, thanks to And now, thanks to one announcement from Steve Hilton, he doesn’t have to.
Game over.
Yes.
Just not for the guy that they were aiming at.
Now, folks, if today lit something up inside of you, do one thing before you leave.
Think of one person who watched the the Palisades burn and felt completely out of options, who watched ballots get rejected and figured that nothing would ever change, who’s been told for years that California is just too far gone.
Send them this video.
Not to make them angrier, they’re probably already there.
But I want you to send it to them because something is actually moving here.
Federal eyes, a a gubanatorial nominee, a president actually paying attention in the White House right now thanks to Donald J.
Trump, a candidate who lost his house, nearly lost his race, and responded by posting a duck that broke the internet.
Guys, this is not a defeated man.
This is a moment.
This is a movement that they forgot to stop in time.
Hit the like button on the way out.
1 second, completely free.
And it puts this video in front of people who still just don’t know what’s really happening.
They need to find out.
So, help us make sure that they do.
