## Resource

Hour 3 - Good Tuesday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers this hour: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is actively positioning herself for a potential run for president in 2028. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Democrat from Florida, said on Friday that she would run in a majority-minority district after the GOP eliminated her seat under a newly drawn congressional map, stoking tensions with Black Democrats. Did you see the latest campaign ad for Spencer Pratt? His team pressure washed the sidewalks with a stencil that said "Imagine if the streets were this clean." The best part? The only way to get rid of the stencil is to pressure wash over it. The latest campaign finance filing from the L.A. mayoral race shows that Pratt has managed to raise over $2.7 million in contributions from April 19 to May 16. His massive spike in campaign funds gives him a nearly 10 times advantage over incumbent Mayor Karen Bass, who managed to pull in a measly $282,000 over the same period. Drew Carey blasted Spencer Pratt on social media, calling Pratt and "serial scammer." Pratt hit back by saying Carey was in the Epstein Files.
