Fun fact that absolutely nobody cares about:
Horvath and Demeter are two of the most common surnames in Hungary/Slovakia/South Central Europe.
Los Angeles has never been a place that dreams small. But for too long, our County government has moved too slowly, failed to meet the moment, and allowed bureaucracy to stand in the way of progress.
I fight everyday to reform our government because I believe the people of Los Angeles deserve better — a government that works for them, delivers real results, and is accountable to the people it serves.
That’s why I’m running to become Los Angeles County’s first elected County Executive.
This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to build a government that finally meets the scale of our challenges and the ambition of our people. From making Los Angeles more affordable and ending homelessness, to protecting our communities and responding urgently to crises, we need bold, unified leadership that puts progress over politics and people over process.
The future of Los Angeles is ours to write. I'm running because I'm ready to fight for it — and together, we're going to build it.

The @lucasmuseum is now open to the public in Los Angeles.
George Lucas has worked on this for 17 years & invested $1 billion of his own money.
He was on hand to personally greet the first visitors to his museum dedicated to narrative art.
Here's my live report with @Boris_Sanchez & @brikeilarcnn on @NewsCentralCNN

The 9/11 first responders remind us all about the power of “we” at a time when too many are focused on “me.”
Here’s what I think we can learn from these heroes:

LA County asking rents fell to their lowest level in nearly 5 yrs as new apartment construction eases market pressures. Less so in City of LA where rents remain elevated as hefty tax increases and regulations have dissuaded new apartment development.

We have literally never been more back!
Last night, we lit up the beloved Hollywood landmark, The Cinerama Dome, with a nod to Columbia Pictures first-ever premiere there: Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Today we welcome a new era for a cathedral of cinema unlike any other.

My latest in @TheAtlantic. Even before these new allegations against Graham Platner, we had more than enough information to know he was unacceptable for elected office.

JDCA never supported Graham Platner because he doesn’t share the values of our community. The allegations of sexual assault make clear he should have no place in this race.
We hope to support a Democratic candidate who reflects the priorities – and morals – of Jewish Americans and will beat Susan Collins in November.

USMNT striker Folarin Balogun just received a red card for this play vs. Bosnia and Herzegovina.
In Argentina's opening group stage match vs. Algeria, Leo Messi attempted this tackle yet received no card despite making contact on the player's calf.
Did either of these calls deserve a red card?
