Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.

We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.
This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care.
It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back.

True to form, power protects power. Casey Wasserman must resign, and Los Angeles deserves a mayor who isn't afraid to call for it.
"Ultimately, any decision on the LA28 leadership must be made by the LA28 Board. As you know, they are a separate and independent nonprofit organization."

Another scandal for @mayor.lacity.gov. Hoping @raeforla.bsky.social is the real deal bc we have an opportunity for change.
Sources tell the LA Times that Mayor Karen Bass directed changes to the Palisades fire after-action report that softened criticism of the city’s response — contradicting her public statements.

One Bass confidant told a source that 'the mayor didn’t tell the truth when she said she had nothing to do with changing the report.'

Los Angeles deserves a mayor who believes in housing as a human right.
"A lot of the net worth people have is tied to their housing, that creates this design where people want the housing prices to go up. But houses are for living in, they're not for speculation"

What’s sort of sad about the billionaires is at one point they at least had ambition. They had to see something that didn’t exist and imagine it being there, and now they all dress like Ronnie from Jersey Shore and go to Imagine Dragons concerts

And this is only reason #832 why we should cancel the Olympics: we’re going to be paying for them for a very, very, long time.
(LA taxpayers will be on the hook for the first $270 million in cost overruns if the LA 2028 Olympics goes over budget.
CA taxpayers will then be on the hook for the next $270 million.
After that, LA taxpayers will again be on the hook for any remaining cost overruns.)
