Tag all local reporters in L.A. below
Clearly a lot of big unnamed players involved in mobilizing effort this scale & a lot more to come. Maybe one of our local reporters will be able to force out some info, otherwise voters will submit their ballots w/o knowing who spent millions in dark $ to influence their votes.

Good news for all of the people Rae owes $ to. She has qualified for matching funds, 10 days after E-Day.
It’s a big check but it’s also highly likely she will be required to return a significant portion of it. Depends on how much she owes that hasn’t been reported.

🚨 A #Pasadena police officer was shot by another officer after both allegedly pointed loaded firearms at each other inside a department parking structure. Police Chief Gene Harris called it “unsafe, out-of-policy horseplay involving loaded firearms.” The wounded officer was struck in the shoulder and later recovered.
Horse play is spraying someone with a water hose.This is a catastrophic failure in judgment that could have easily turned deadly.
