California needs an experienced leader who is competent and has common sense. As Mayor of San Jose, Matt runs the safest large city in the United States. Imagine what a track record of success like that can do for our state. Vote @MattMahanSJ for Governor on June 2nd.

These Spencer Pratt videos by @dsonoiki are better than 99.9% of political consultant ads. He does it again.

Ms. Bass, we’ve seen your audition, we won’t be needing you for the part.
- Essentially, if there were 100 homeless on the sidewalk, in four years you got rid of 17 of them?
- Crime has never been under-reported as much as now. Crime is high. LA citizens go by experience, not your cherry-picked stats.
- Apparently your housing units are wildly over-funded with our tax dollars.
This is why Karen Bass cannot run on her record. Even the puffed-up LinkedIn version is weak.

When I became mayor, Los Angeles was facing challenges that had been ignored for decades. So I got to work. Homelessness is down 17.5%. Homicides are at their lowest level since the 1960s. More than 42,000 affordable housing units are being fast-tracked. There is still more work to do to make L.A. safer, more affordable, and a city that works for everyone.

🚨 California just voted to pass AB 2624 aka “The Stop Nick Shirley Act”:
This bill puts journalists at civil risk for investigating fraud and makes it harder to expose fraud in “immigration support services,” including NGOs, nonprofits and health care facilities that receive hundreds of millions from the state of California each year.
This bill would have made it criminal to expose fake hospices in LA or the Somali “learing center” in Minnesota if they then claim “reasonable fear” and the business owner gives a written demand not to post the video.
Plain and simple, California is trying to make it harder to expose fraud and scare individuals from investigating fraud in their communities, as they could be sued for an injunction to remove the video + forced to pay their attorney fees + minimum $4,000 in damages.
The Attorney General's wife, Mia Bonta, created this bill and is now trying to make it law. How is this not a conflict of interest?
California is full of FRAUDSTERS!

🚨 WOW! LA mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt just unleashed this MIC DROP
"The number one question everybody has for me when they hear my plan is, how can we do that Spencer? We don't have the money.' WE HAVE THE MONEY. IT'S JUST BEING STOLEN."
Elect this man! 🔥🔥
"You pay countless tax dollars. You're taxed on your income. You're taxed on your gas. You're taxed on your property. You're taxed out the every single expensive transaction you endure is taxed."
Potholes, public safety, homeless? "WE DO HAVE THE MONEY, IT'S JUST BEING STOLEN"
"Karen Bass and Nithya Raman have sunk billions of dollars into the homeless problem, but it's all being wasted on dubious NGOs that increase drug use, hand out needles, and crack pipes, and actually give drugs to the addicts on the streets of LA."
"A developer bought a property for homeless housing, had $11 million. Days later, the city paid him $27.3 million, a $16 million flip. No new carpets, no pool addition, just straight up fraud."

On this Memorial Day, I am reminded how eternally grateful I am to those who sacrificed their lives to preserve our independence and our democracy. The ultimate sacrifice to people they will never know.
We are incredibly fortunate to live in this amazing country at this remarkable time in history. We are the luckiest people of the last many thousands of years. Let’s keep our difficulties in perspective and profoundly thank and remember those that made now possible.

@junogsp7 One of the most humbling and emotional experiences that I ever had was walking past the gravestones in that achingly beautiful cemetery full of young American boys. I was unbelievably grateful and sad for their ultimate bravery.

Memorial Weekend
2026 🇺🇸 🫡
This is such a poignant and respectful remembrance for all 9,387 US soldiers who paid the ultimate price for our freedom on D-Day in Normandy.
French caretakers’ tradition of taking sand from Omaha Beach and scrubbing it into the letters of the tombstones makes the names more visible and gives them a golden appearance.

Sam Harris has triggered the hell out of Hamas supporters online by simply explaining a basic fact:
The Muslim terrorists who initiated a war against Israel on October 7 are facing the consequences of that war, not a genocide.
They invaded Israel shouting “Allah Akbar”, raped, murdered and burned over 1,000 Jews as Islamic acts of worship, and kidnapped hundreds more into Gaza.
They filmed their own atrocities with pride. They chose holy war, aka Jihad. Israel chose to fight back and destroy the enemy that attacked it.
That is not genocide.
That is war.
The people screaming “genocide” are the same ones who celebrated October 7 and still demand more Jewish blood.
They started the slaughter and now cry victim when Israel refuses to let them finish the job.
Sam Harris is doing what the media and politicians refuse to do: telling the truth without apology.
Do you agree with him? Yes/No?

“Easily the most hyped I’ve ever been for a day game — probably any game — in my life.”
After today's series win over the Royals, #STLCards manager Oli Marmol invited the creators of the “tarps off” crew into the clubhouse to celebrate with the team.
Why let this trend stop with @SFAClubBsbl? Oli made it clear he wants this to become a thing.

Wise words. Hatred of Jews is indeed the unifying factor of many despicable people around the world.

People say the left and the right can’t agree on anything these days. But there is this one thing:

@Jandystl Remember when you were devastated by the loss to the Padres when we were one out away from victory? I said cheer up we will do it to another team soon enough. I didn't think it would be this quick.

CARDINALS WIN. Oh my god what a win. What a series win. Unbelievable. They will out gritty you. When you think your team is gritty I promise my team is way grittier. They just battle and fight and don’t care at all. This team is UNBELIEVABLE. Down to their last out? They don’t care. Special. So special. And gritty. 25-18. Jordan Walker is insane. They just don’t give up. What else is there to say about this team. So so gritty. PLAY FREE BIRD. Birds! #shocktheworld #STLCards

The New York Times falsely reported that Israel shelled a Gaza hospital - turned out to be a Hamas rocket.
It ran a front-page story portraying a child with cerebral palsy as evidence of mass starvation.
And now: “rape dogs.”
The @nytimes long ago stopped being a paper of record. It rushes to print sensational claims hoping their readers are stupid.

@BluesMckenna @Jandystl The guy who hit that home run has a batting average under 200.

@CollegeBlogs @Jandystl False hope. We don’t have a hitter anywhere near clutch enough to hit a HR on a 2 strike count down 2 runs and 2 outs in the 9th

Watch this short clip of @KemiBadenoch articulating simple & plain truths which are — sadly — a breath of fresh air. Why can’t more leaders in the UK, Canada, France, Australia, and even here in US, speak with such clarity on what’s going on?
Jake Wallis Simons@JakeWSimons
Exceptional poise, moral clarity, courage and grace from @KemiBadenoch in the face of the Gaza mob. (Total 🔥 too.) Free Britain from jihadism!

There is still good left in humanity.
Captain Jon Jackson was supposed to take his final retirement flight with Spirit Airlines today. But after Spirit's shutdown, he instead found himself as a passenger on a Southwest Airlines flight into Baltimore.
What happened next was truly special. Capt. Jackson was honored with a traditional water cannon salute and a surprise welcome celebration at the gate.
This is a powerful reminder that the aviation community is built on respect, compassion, and solidarity—especially when it matters most. Above all, this moment was about honoring a fellow aviator.
Congratulations, Capt. Jackson, and thank you for your years of service in the skies.
Well done Southwest Airlines 💙
