.@MayorOfLA@KarenBassLA responds to @latimes report that after $300 million spent on "Inside Safe" program, 40% of participants have returned to the streets.
Is that a failure?
Bass: "60% of the people have remained housed."
Me: "That's not a great percentage"
Bass: "It is a great percentage...I came in to a system that has been broken for 3 decades...I moved to get people off the streets...we've resolved over 120 encampments..."
"We don't know 40% left to go off the streets...we don't know where they are? We know they left interim housing...one of the fundamental weaknesses is inadequate services."
"The system was not designed to evaluate itself."

Republicans can mock the No Kings protests all the want, but the reality is it just grew from 6 million to 8 million people in a few months. 3,300 rallies in all 50 states, many in suburbs and small towns.
Meanwhile, Republicans in Congress see the writing on the wall. A record 36 are retiring early. Donald Trump is sitting around 40% approval at best, closer to the low 30s by some measures.
When a president is under 50%, their party historically loses an average of 34 seats in Congress. Democrats only need a handful of seats. The energy is real and it is growing.
🚨 🚨 Chuck Schumer CONFIRMS Senate gridlock over the SAVE America Act + ADMITS TO ILLEGAL VOTERS?
During a Capitol Hill gaggle, @SenSchumer confirmed the Senate could face total gridlock over the SAVE America Act - and his response raised eyebrows.
Our reporter, @alisonintheknow, asked him point-blank: is blocking voter ID, supported by roughly 85% of Americans, a betrayal of voters?
Schumer erupted, "It allows ICE to kick tens of millions of people off the rolls... they don't tell them until Election Day... purging them... algorithm put together by @ICEgov, @DOGE, and @ElonMusk... this is a bill that destroys the country!"
Translation: Schumer's terrified because purging tens of millions means cleaning out the FRAUD - the very "voters" Dems rely on...
Schumer ultimately said Democrats plan to fight the bill “tooth and nail.”
Meanwhile, @POTUS has made it clear: no bills get signed until the SAVE America Act reaches his desk.
It’s official!

🔥🚨 BREAKING: "MS NOW" host Rachel Maddow doesnt deny the Iranian people deserve the right to be FREE OF OPPRESSION from the tyrannical regime.
Instead critizes how President Trump did it.
She then virtually repeats herself... Liberals are trying SO HARD to find something to complain about. While they know this is what needed to happen...
BREAKING: Fires rage in the streets of Puerta Vallarta, Mexico as cartels burn cars in the city.
Just kidding this is Gavin Newsom's California last summer
😳 I’ve seen @KarenBassLA act cringey many times but this takes the cake
She’s obviously VERY nervous that new @MayorOfLA candidate @nithyavraman out-commies her & @spencerpratt has exposed her corruption/incompetence
Kicked off our nominating petition drive this morning with great energy and even better company.
Grateful to everyone who showed up early, signed on, and helped get this campaign one step closer to the ballot.
🚨 NOW: People are screaming “F*** YOU, KAREN BASS” as the Los Angeles Mayor leaves Don Lemon’s court hearing
Wouldn’t be surprised if these are folks who lost their homes in the fires and are STILL barred from rebuilding
