Los Angeles is a broken city, facing huge problems made worse by corrupt politicians. It is overrun by homelessness, crime, blight, and the horrifying aftermath of the 2025 Palisades fire.
In several weeks, Los Angeles voters will elect a new Mayor. One candidate, former reality television star Spencer Pratt, is making a huge splash. He was previously known for his starring role on the MTV show The Hills from 2006 to 2010.
He lost his house, along with his parents, in the Palisades fire. Unlike two of his opponents in the race, incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and Councilmember Nithya Raman, who live in mansions, Pratt and his wife are still living in a mobile home because of the fire. His disgust at the slow recovery of his hometown is fueling his grassroots campaign.
