Former reality TV star turned Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt dropped another viral video on Friday, declaring “war” on what he called “the machine” that left voters with “two corrupt communists” in the general election.
“I got in this to expose this corrupt machine,” Pratt says at the beginning of the video. “I don’t have the campaign laws hamstringing me now. It’s war.”
The three-minute video, called “Saving LA – Phase III,” targets incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and far-left Councilmember Nithya Raman, two Democrats who advanced to the November runoff after Pratt finished third in the primary.
Pratt said he is now “moving on to the next, more interesting phase” of his mission, which includes a secret recording he claims implicates “one of your exalted candidates.” He threatened to make the recording public and said it would “make her resign in shame.”

“Go ahead and pick your demon, certify your choice, and then you get to see it,” he said. “So Karen and Nithya, ask yourself, is it possible that one of your employees may have a recording of you doing or saying something that would force you to resign in disgrace? I hope you sleep well over the next five months.”
Pratt painted a bleak picture of L.A. through images of rampant graffiti, garbage-strewn streets, drug activity, public defecation, burned-out structures, and shuttered businesses.
“Angelenos are now stuck with two morons responsible for all of their problems, and they have to choose between dumb and dumber,” Pratt said. “That’s not a choice. That’s the machine protecting the machine.”
“And now every problem that plagues Los Angeles because of these two corrupt communists is going to accelerate, and the city will tumble headlong into the abyss,” he added.
With roughly 98% of the vote counted, Bass finished first in the primary with 34.3% of the vote, while Raman overtook Pratt earlier this week to finish second with 28.9%. Pratt received 25.5%. The top two finishers advance to the general election unless one candidate receives more than 50% of the vote.
Pratt, a Republican, vowed to continue attacking both Democrats through the runoff campaign.
“I’m going to be lighting you up every single day,” Pratt promised.
“My goal hasn’t changed. I’ve been laser-focused on stopping these commie animals, and I will stop them.”
