100 days. One city. Our future.
A reintroduction.

The countdown to the November 3rd election starts now.

We’ve built and will continue to grow a movement for common sense, pragmatism, public safety, accountability, and effective leadership. NOT ideological politics.

We’re supporting:
✅ Tim Gaspar – CD3 @gasparforcitycouncil
✅ Jose Ugarte – CD9 @ugarteforla
✅ John McKinney – City Attorney @johnmckinney_

We also will continue to educate voters on the policies and platform of the Democratic Socialists of America and expose Nithya Raman's failures and push to keep her out of the Mayors seat.

Over the next 100 days, we’ll share volunteer opportunities, meet-and-greets, debates, and the information voters need to make informed decisions.

If you believe Los Angeles deserves practical leadership over ideology, join us.

100 days. Let’s get to work.

Why is Barri Worth Girvan stooping this low?

A fake, AI-generated political ad? Seriously? Is this what her campaign has resorted to?

Doesn’t Barri have to approve what’s being put out in her name? Further, like IG, does the campaign have to divulge Ai manipulation?

If you know anyone in CD3, make sure they see this. Voters deserve to know the tactics being used to win their votes.

If you can’t run an honest campaign, why should voters trust you to represent them?

The only city attorney qualified for one of the most important offices in Los Angeles is @johnmckinney_

Do not allow an activist to hold this seat. One who wants to put a 100 day moratorium on misdemeanors, one who won't enforce the 41.18 encampment ordinance and one who focuses the majority of her energy talking about issues that the city does not have power over. The slogans and the virtue signaling will not keep our streets safe.

Pragmatism over ideology. Policies that work, not slogans.

At theLALoop, we’re looking for leaders who believe in practical solutions, safe streets, thriving businesses, public spaces for everyone, and real long term solutions to homelessness.

Leaders who listen, find common ground, and understand that getting things done means working with people who don’t always see eye to eye.

That’s what we’re looking for, and that’s why we’re proud to endorse Derrick Townsend for Santa Monica City Council. Vote November 3rd. @derricktownsend4sm

Los Angeles!
We don't need to endorse Karen Bass.
We don't need to like Karen Bass.
We just have to vote for her because the
alternative is much much worse!!
Please listen to people that have worked with
Nithya, the DSA candidate. We think they know best.

Thank you @councilwomantracipark by @thelaloop

BELIEVE THEM WHEN THEY TELL YOU WHO THEY ARE.

Political slogans are easy. Promises are easy. But what do the organizations behind the candidates actually stand for?

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have published positions on housing, policing, public ownership, and the role of government that deserve public scrutiny and an honest conversation.

Don't rely on campaign slogans, social media sound bites, or someone else's interpretation. Read their own words. Look at their policy goals. Ask questions.

Know what you're supporting before you support it.

Because when it comes to the future of our city, the details matter. taken in Burbank, California by @thelaloop

We watched the debate last night. It was like nails on a chalkboard. But this was the best clip from Bass.

It speaks volumes when your fellow councilmembers don’t want to work with you. And not one endorsement from a sitting councilmember? That’s telling.

And let’s talk about change. Nithya Raman has been on the City Council for nearly six years. She’s not a political newcomer. She’s been part of the decisions, the policies, and the direction of this city.

So what exactly is she promising to change now that she hasn’t been able to change in six years? And how much responsibility does she bear for the very problems she’s campaigning to fix?

You do know that council has more power than the mayor, right?

Why did 67% of CD4 voters not vote for Nithya Raman?

Could it be the over 3000 missed votes? The missed council meetings? The lack of measurable results on homelessness despite serving on the committee responsible for addressing it?

Could it be the repeated opposition to restrictions on homeless encampments near schools, parks, and libraries? Or the shifting positions on issues like public safety and Measure ULA?

These are legitimate questions about a councilmember’s record. Holding office isn’t just about having the right ideas or making promises. It’s about showing up, making decisions, delivering results, and being accountable to the people you represent.

Six years in office. What can constituents point to as measurable results, and what still hasn’t been delivered?

That’s the conversation we deserve to have.

Please help us understand.
