Just to recap: We tore up a fine nuclear deal that put Tehran’s nuclear program in a box with strict caps, limitations and oversight (and yes, 10, 15 and 20 year sunsets), which allowed Iran to acquire more and better centrifuges and accumulate a large enrichment stockpile it wouldn’t have otherwise. Then we complained about it despite Iran’s actions being highly predictable and predicted. Then we bombed Iran in June 2025 to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities, only to go to war again eight months later (despite Trump telling us the program was destroyed), which the Iranians responded to by targeting Gulf energy infrastructure, shuttering the Strait of Hormuz and pushing fuel prices up 50%. And then four months later, when it was all said and done, we ended up paying Iran via oil sanctions waivers to end the war, re-open the strait (which was already open before the war) and talk about their nuclear program again. Our foreign policy leaders are morons. And of course nobody will be held accountable for any of it—not the “thought leaders” who sold the military option as a panacea or the officials who implemented it.

So the system worked. When signatures do not match what is on the registration the vote is rejected. What exactly is your beef? You think the worker knew how this person voted? The signature is on the outisde of the sealed envelope.
Multiple Spencer Pratt voters have contacted me saying their signatures were rejected and their ballots were not counted. Here is the letter they get. More than 200,000 Californians have had their ballots rejected since 2020. This is what happens when you don’t require voter ID. If a machine can identify your party registration, people have every right to question whether the process can be manipulated.

The LA mayor stuff is the dumbest conspiracy theory I've ever heard & makes no sense. Dem establishment/Bass wanted Pratt, not Raman, to advance. Bass crushes Pratt in a 1-on-1 by 18 pt, while Raman beat Bass by 4. Pratt's the rarity in LA less popular than the unpopular Bass!

In a two-way race in 2024, Donald Trump got 26.5% of the vote in City of Los Angeles. In a three-way race in 2026, Spencer Pratt has 26.7% of the vote. I'm not sure what the mystery is that demands a conspiratorial explanation.

Hard to believe Spencer Pratt lost the election despite having no experience, being highly unpopular and running in a 4:1 democratic stronghold. Makes no sense.

I lived in California for a couple of years, and I agree it's *very* annoying that the state takes so long to count ballots. But Spencer Pratt losing ground is not a conspiracy. It's totally predictable. CA allows voters to *send* their ballots on Election Day. They have a week to get there, so some ballots that will still be counted have yet to even arrive. Left-leaning people are more likely to vote by mail. Right-leaning people—of which there are fewer in LA—are more skeptical of it, so it easily follows that more Pratt voters would vote at the actual ballot box. This is not rocket science. Maybe California's laws should change. A week after an election is a very long time to still be accepting ballots, and it damages trust in the process. But a registered Republican heading for a loss in one of the most progressive cities in the world is not a shocker.

America Second!!! If he was really American First he would mandate they admit 500,000 more American kids.
Trump on Chinese students in American universities: "If you want to see a university system die, take half a million people out of it. They would be dying all over the place. I frankly think it's good that people come from other countries and learn our culture."

Then he should have included it in the Constitution. Since he didn't include that language it is not constitutional. #textualism #originalism

“We do not seek regime change” Trump declares as he escalates his regime change war against Iran. Neocons like Graham/Bolton are cheering. To all who voted for Trump bc of his antiwar rhetoric, it’s time to realize he lied to u. Stand with me against Trump’s Iran War! #TrumpsWar

This slo-mo clip is damning. The shooter agent WATCHED one agent disarm Pretti, THEN decides to draw. He then appears to aim at Pretti's spine and opens fire. Pretti was assaulted for protecting someone. But he was killed for being lawfully armed.
