Summary
Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt opposes federal immigration enforcement operations in the city, but attributes the controversy to his top challenger, Mayor Karen Bass. Pratt suggests that enforcing the law, rather than defying it, is the way to keep ICE out of LA. He points to San Francisco’s approach, where Mayor Daniel Lurie made a deal with President Trump to crack down on crime and keep ICE out of the city.

The real question is, what happens when the music stops?
