NEW from The Current Report - “How Sacramento Bought LA: The Bonta Machine, Billionaire PACs, and the Coordinated Takedown of Alex Villanueva” - a deep dive into how power, money and cronyism converged to shield insiders and bury investigations.

The machine wasn’t built by chance. It was engineered.

What we uncovered:
   •   A tangled cash-pipeline connecting Sacramento elites, billionaire donors, and reform-branded nonprofits funneling millions to topple the only Sheriff who wouldn’t bow.
   •   A raid on September 14 2022 by Villanueva’s deputies that hit hard: law-enforcement offices, private homes, and a nonprofit tied to Sheila Kuehl, but what should have sparked a full-on federal investigation got quietly taken over, neutralised and closed with no accountability.
   •   The same donor ecosystem backing those who shielded the power circle also bankrolled the political operation that brought Villanueva down. Election hit job disguised as “oversight.”

And there is so much more to the story.

President Trump’s economic policies are working to make Americans’ Thanksgiving more affordable this year – from their commute to the dinner table. And more relief is coming in the months ahead:

⛽️The national average price of a gallon of gas on Thanksgiving Day is projected to be at the cheapest price since the COVID pandemic in 2021.

🍽️According to the American Farm Bureau Federation’s annual survey, cooking Thanksgiving dinner will also cost less than it did last year and is down about 5% overall.

🦃The average price of a staple of the meal – a 16-pound frozen turkey – has fallen more than 16% from last year.

💰Thanks to the President signing the largest middle class tax cuts in history into law – from No Tax on Overtime to No Tax on Tips to No Tax on Social Security – tax filers could expect an extra $1,000 bump to their tax refund next year in what could be a record-breaking tax refund season, according to a new study from Piper Sandler.

WATCH IN FULL: President Donald J. Trump meets with NYC Mayor-elect Mamdani.

President Trump shakes hands with NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani, saying, "We're going to be helping him to make everybody's dream come true, having a strong and very safe New York."

NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani says he discussed affordability issues with President Trump, adding: "I appreciated the time with the president. I appreciated the conversation. I look forward to working together to deliver that affordability for New Yorkers."

JUST IN: New York City Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani sidesteps a question about a House resolution that overwhelmingly passed to condemn socialism.

MAMDANI: "I am someone who is a Democratic Socialist. I've been very open about that. And I know there might be differences about ideology, but the place of agreement is the work that needs to be done to make New York City affordable."

President Trump jokes with NYC Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani when he was asked to explain his comments on calling the president a “fascist.”

“That’s OK, you can just say yes ... it's easier than explaining it. I don't mind.”

PRESIDENT TRUMP on NYC Mayor-elect Mamdani: "I met with a man who's a very rational person. I met with a man who really wants to see New York be great again... I think he can bring it back... I'll be cheering for him."
