The Eaton fire devastated Altadena’s hillsides, homes and hearts alike, and more than nine months later, rebuilding still feels painfully slow. I speak with survivors daily and one truth is clear: recovery isn’t stalled because of a lack of will, but because the system is strained under the weight of complex and unfair practices. Successfully rebuilding Altadena rests on two essential pillars: money — the financial resources survivors need to rebuild — and an efficient, effective and accessible rebuilding ecosystem that allows them to move forward once ready. When either pillar weakens, recovery falters. A recent study by UCLA’s Latino…

INGLEWOOD – We all have that friend who’s convinced that every airball, every blown call, every boneheaded turnover is evidence that the fix is in. Maybe it’s you, maybe you’re that friend? And I’m the one who’s been over here laughing at you, calling you a conspiracy nut. I’m the one rebutting, trying to tell you that mistakes happen by the hundreds in a human game like hoops – which will always be true, but also … I see now what you’ve been saying. This week jogged my memory – oh yeah, NBC’s Bob Costas totally grilled late commissioner David…

The last time we California surfers had to worry about getting hassled by Marines was in the 1960s and ‘70s, when the greatest, most consistent waves on our whole coastline were off-limits, legally at least. Cotton’s Point was right below the cliff on which sat President Richard Nixon’s Western White House, and the Secret Service don’t surf. Just south, Upper Trestles, where now I paddle out every November with a posse of old longboarders to celebrate my birthday, and Lower Trestles, where the 2028 Olympics competition will be held, were entirely verboten beaches because they are the property of the…

From the onset, Gov. Gavin Newsom and supporters of California’s mid-cycle redistricting plan have called it a “response” to Republicans. The measure before voters in the special election is Proposition 50, dubbed the “Election Rigging Response Act” when Newsom kicked off the campaign — the legislature needed to approve the new congressional district maps and call the special election first — in mid-August. Newsom said then that the special election was predicated upon Texas or other Republican-led states going through with partisan redistricting, at the behest of his archrival, President Donald Trump.

For decades, the United States has worked with our neighbors in the Caribbean and South America to fight drug trafficking, dismantle criminal networks, and strengthen democratic institutions. That partnership is rooted in trust, respect and the rule of law. But what we’re witnessing today is not partnership, it’s betrayal. President Donald Trump’s recent unilateral actions in the Caribbean and South America are not just reckless; they’re dangerous. He has deployed U.S. military assets without congressional authorization, bypassing the very checks and balances that define our democracy. Congress has not granted him war powers, and no president — Republican or Democrat…

Our travels took us to Dallas, Texas for the last week of the State Fair of Texas – the world’s largest state fair – I’m told. After all, everything is bigger… Anytime we travel, I always look for a lesson or two or at least a way to improve brokering commercial real estate. This trip was no different, but maybe a bit harder to ascertain. So maybe a look at how the Orange County Fair and the Texas state fair differ would be fun with a bit of commercial real estate mixed in. If you’re up for it, here goes.…

Shocked, shocked. On Thursday, the National Basketball Association was hit with a gambling scandal. New York federal prosecutor Joseph Nocella said it is “one of the most brazen sports corruption schemes since online sports betting became widely legalized in the United States.” Miami Heat player Terry Rozier was arrested for allegedly sharing inside information about player injuries that bettors could use to win big. He’s also accused of telling gamblers in 2023 that he would fake an injury to leave a game early, allowing them to make sure-thing bets on the “under” in an over/under wager on Rozier’s total points…

The Inland Empire rental market remains tilted in favor of tenants. That’s what my trusty spreadsheet found when it reviewed the September rent data from ApartmentList, which tracks pricing in 13 cities across the Inland Empire using an index of one-bedroom and two-bedroom units. Consider that rents declined in 11 of the 13 cities in the year ending in September. But in the previous 12 months, rents fell in just seven of those cities. Why? A host of factors overcame initial fears that the loss of housing in January’s Los Angeles wildfires would boost rents regionally. The region’s job market…

New polling, conducted after videos of former Rep. Katie Porter‘s interactions with a journalist and a staffer went viral, shows the former congresswoman and Republican Steve Hilton at the front of the pack of contenders in the 2026 race for California governor. But it also shows many likely voters are still undecided. Hilton, a former Fox News host who got his start in politics in the United Kingdom, led the new Emerson College poll with 16%. Porter, who served three terms in Congress representing an Orange County district before mounting an unsuccessful bid for U.S. Senate last year, was nearly tied…
