Pratt\u2019s website features a brief mission statement,merchandise for sale,and links to his and his wife&#8217;s businesses.

It pledges to \u201cwin the war against political corruption with innovative new media,\u201d promote transparency and accountability in government and culture, and \u201crestore common sense\u201d while rolling back socialism in major institutions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The site also directs visitors to <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/newportbleach.com\/collections\/twr\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/newportbleach.com\/collections\/twr\">purchase merchandise<\/a> left over from Pratt\u2019s mayoral campaign, including $50 baseball caps, and includes links to products sold by his wife, Heidi Montag, as well as to the couple\u2019s other business ventures.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-2\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-2\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-16\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-2\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pratt\u2019s political profile grew during the Los Angeles mayoral race after he tapped into voter frustration over the aftermath of the Palisades wildfire, bureaucratic delays, and <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >broader anti-establishment sentiment<\/a>. Though best known as a reality TV personality, he became an outspoken advocate for residents struggling to rebuild after the fires and frequently highlighted concerns over homelessness, public safety, and government accountability.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His campaign was shaped in part by personal loss. Pratt\u2019s home was among the thousands destroyed in the Palisades fire, an experience he repeatedly cited as motivation for entering politics.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No Republican has won the Los Angeles mayor\u2019s office since 1997, making Pratt\u2019s bid a significant long shot from the outset. His campaign ended after <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/karen-bass\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"2491\">Mayor Karen Bass<\/a> and Councilwoman Nithya Raman, both Democrats, advanced to the general election. Pratt finished third in the primary, a race that was also marked by President <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\/\">Donald Trump<\/a>\u2018s unsubstantiated claims of voter fraud. Pratt echoed some of those allegations after early returns briefly showed him in second place before later vote counts pushed him into third.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-3\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-3\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-17\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-3\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier Tuesday, Pratt posted photos from the White House, including images of himself and his young son in the Oval Office with Trump and White House chief of staff <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/susie-wiles\/\" type=\"post_tag\" id=\"11678\">Susie Wiles<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/state\/4640714\/spencer-pratt-picture-son-oval-office-trump\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/campaigns\/state\/4640714\/spencer-pratt-picture-son-oval-office-trump\/\">\u2018LOVE YOUR COUNTRY LIKE YOUR CHILD\u2019: SPENCER PRATT SHARES PHOTO OF SON IN OVAL OFFICE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI will never stop fighting for my community,\u201d Pratt wrote in the caption.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wex-inarticle-ad wex-inarticle-ad-art-dsk-inart-4\">\n<div class=\"wex-ad-wrap wex-ad-art-dsk-inart-4\" style=\"min-height:90px\"><span class=\"wex-ad-label\" hidden>Advertisement<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"div-gpt-ad-3182201-25\" data-wex-ad=\"art-dsk-inart-4\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He followed that up with a picture of himself standing in front of the Declaration of Independence and captioned it: \u201cIf you look closely, it reads \u2018We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal\u2026except for communists.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spencer Pratt launches WAR Foundation to fight corruption<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2646,"featured_media":2626890,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/AP26151774895591.jpg?w=696","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[6150,36585,37055,33387,82439],"class_list":["post-2626889","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-celebrity","tag-los-angeles","tag-philanthropy","tag-political-campaign","tag-war-foundation"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/AP26151774895591.jpg?w=696","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2626889","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2646"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2626889"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2626889\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2626893,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2626889\/revisions\/2626893"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2626890"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2626889"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2626889"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2626889"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
