“No way this could have happened,” President Donald Trump wrote on TruthSocial early Monday morning. “Rigged Election!”

While he could reasonably have been referring to any number of elections he’s deemed “rigged” over the last decade, in this instance, Trump had turned his bleary eyes to the Los Angeles mayoral race, where a progressive challenger, city council member Nithya Raman, has pulled ahead of reality TV heel-turned-crystal-enthusiast-turned Republican candidate Spencer Pratt.


And this fucker Bill Essayli: appointed by Pam Bondi and Trump. I knew he was a snake. He was the one who okayed the warrant for ICE to raid a clothing manufacturer in downtown los angeles. This was the first big ICE story. See youtube video below. They violently arrested labor leader David Huerta, President of Service Employees International Union (SEIU).

On Friday, Bilal Essayli, the First Assistant U.S. Attorney for the Central District of California, claimed on X that there “is evidence of election fraud in California,” adding that “more investigations are underway.”


Lies! And that fascist Chad Bianco running for Governor in California is the other fucker who illegally removed ballots:

On February 21, Bianco attended a press conference in San Diego with Republican leaders to promote State Senate Republican Minority Leader Brian Jones' proposed bill SB554 to weaken the California Senate Bill 54 of 2017 that limits law enforcement's ability to cooperate with ICE.[27][28]

In April 2026, Bianco ordered the seizure of ballots from California's 2025 election, citing concerns about election integrity, a focus of his political campaign. A Riverside County judge and the California Supreme Court subsequently ordered the search warrants authorizing the seizure to be unsealed.[29] The affidavits revealed that their case rested solely on claims from a citizens' activist group; the group was overseen by Shasta County's Registrar of Voters.[29]


Bill Essayli did this. Fuck him. Fuck bondi. Fuck trump. (Read up on Bill Essayli.)

WE CAN'T LET THESE REPUBLICAN MOTHERFUCKING FASCISTS INFILTRATE CALIFORNIA. THEY'RE TROJAN HORSES.
