Soros-Linked Philadelphia District Attorney Says He Will Have ‘Piece of' White House Ballroom on His Desk After It's Blown Up
[BB] Philadelphia, Pennsylvania District Attorney (DA) Larry Krasner, who has links to billionaire George Soros, shared that he would have a “piece of” the White House ballroom, as a paperweight on his desk after it was blown up.
Dream on, O Soros DA.
While speaking at the slavery commiseration at the President’s House in the neighborhood of Old City on Tuesday, Krasner described President Donald Trump as being the “embodiment of hate,” ignorance, and “depriving people of their vote and their education.”

Krasner also spoke about how there would be “an exhibit on slavery at the site,” NBC10 Philadelphia reported.

“The man himself is the embodiment of hate. He is the embodiment of ignorance. He is the embodiment of depriving people of their vote and their education,” Krasner told the crowd. “That’s who he is. And, so I want you to think forward because there is a beautiful time coming. There is a beautiful time coming, this memorial will be here.”

SEE IT: LA Dem candidates torched by disgusted residents after ‘disgraceful' debate: ‘Both bad'
[FOX] Los Angeles’ Democratic mayoral candidates were torched by residents after a debate night in America’s second-most populous city that one voter described as "disgraceful."

Besides being home to Hollywood, Los Angeles is one of America’s most economically important cities. The city, however, has struggled with recent fires, rising living costs, homelessness and outmigration. Those problems have fueled a particularly contentious mayoral race this year, which included a surprisingly competitive but ultimately unsuccessful bid by Republican Spencer Pratt.

With Pratt out of the race, Democrats Karen Bass, the incumbent, and Nithya Raman, a democratic socialist city council member, are locked in a competitive and bitter runoff for Los Angeles mayor. During last week’s debate, Bass and Raman traded personal attacks and insults, leaving some voters frustrated over what solutions the candidates could offer.

After the debate, voter Stacey Segarra Bohlinger told Fox News Digital she believes Bass and Raman are "both bad" and said, "I wish they could both lose."

#1  Did the homeless folks attend?

#2  IIRC Spencer Pratt hinted that the jungle primary vote may not have been fair, but didn't have enough not enough solid information that would hold up. Of course it's entirely possible enough voters believed the lies coming from Bass & Raman.

#3  They did both lose, and now LA loses.
Posted by: swksvolFF || 08/27/2026 11:58 Comments || Top||

#4  If this state had an attorney general who wasn't a crook, the fraud in the LA mayoral primary would be properly prosecuted. But Rob Bonta is much too busy waging lawfare against Trump and putting the kibosh on Sherrif Bianco's investigation of election fraud in Riverside County.
