New York City-born screenwriter and director Doug Ellin endorsed Spencer Pratt for the upcoming Los Angeles mayoral election in a fiery social media rant. He explained how his home was invaded a few years ago, which is why people like him now “hate” L.A. Ellin, 58, began:“Hey, L.A. Times gaslighters, one of 15 cameras that I now have at this house, two German Shepherds, three legal guns. Five years ago, didn’t lock the door here. But you know what happened? Two animals invaded my house and no, I am not racist because they were wearing masks. I don’t know whether they were white, I don’t know whether they were Jewish, I don’t know whether they were f**king rabbis.”The Entourage creator continued:“I know they were animals because they invaded my house. I know I don’t care what their excuses are, like a lot of you f**king care? I know invaders of homes should get 20 years. But I am not paranoid, so I don’t believe your bullsh*t about the stats and the crime, because everyone in my neighborhood has got the same problem. They are f**king all putting cameras or hiring security guards because we’re all getting broken into.”Doug Ellin said his claims are neither made-up nor false, and the city has “collapsed” in the last five years under the leadership of Karen Bass. He said there’s “no denying it unless you have an agenda” and also questioned people who are saying Spencer Pratt has “no experience,” reminding them that Karen Bass also had zero experience but was still elected.In the wake of his lengthy rant, netizens are pointing out that Doug Ellin lives in Beverly Hills, which has a different mayor and comes under a whole different jurisdiction.Citizen journalist and Trump supporter Julia (@Jules31415) reposted Doug Ellin’s video post on X, which went viral and amassed 1.5 million views. However, users are commenting underneath it, reminding both Doug and Julia that the former’s home is outside L.A. County.For instance, X user @RealNormanAChad observed:“Uh, you live in Beverly Hills. Maybe direct this rant to your OWN mayor. (I'm not a Karen Bass supporter, but she's not responsible for the break-in at Mr Ellin's home.)”Several others joined in the conversation and shared similar reactions.“Beverly Hills is outside of Los Angeles; they have their own mayor, police force, schools, etc. It’s a separate city,” a person wrote.“Local man does not realize that the city he lives in has its own mayor and police department,” another person rebuked.“So has he looked at his ballot at home or not?” an individual asked.“If he truly lives in Beverly Hills, he’s not only blaming the wrong mayor, but it would be illegal for him to vote for Spencer Pratt,” one netizen commented.“The LA mayor has nothing to do with Beverly Hills. Beverly Hills has its own mayor and police department. People who live in Beverly Hills don’t get to vote for the LA mayor,” a user added.Doug Ellin has since responded to the pushback. He tweeted:“Beverly Hills post office. But I am Los Angeles County. I realize everything obviously.”Many fans came to his defence following his comment.Here’s exploring more of what Doug Ellin said in his Spencer Pratt endorsement videoDuring his latest rant about the deteriorating condition of Los Angeles under Karen Bass, and endorsement of reality TV personality Spencer Pratt for the 2026 L.A. mayoral election, Doug Ellin also mentioned 2022 runner-up Rick Caruso. He said if it were someone like Caruso, who could “build” or “fix” problems, running, it would make sense to endorse/ vote for him.However, Rick’s candidacy was reportedly declined. The Caruso founder was the runner-up for mayor in 2022.“So, right now, you are putting people in the same position that you did with Trump, who I did not vote for, by the way; you put him in by making sure we had no f**king options, okay? And that’s where we are in L.A. and we want to fix this place. Because we don’t want to be forced out,” Doug Ellin said.He also took credit for making people move to Beverly Hills/ Los Angeles, who have ended up regretting their decision.“I am one of the people who make this city look great. I did it for years, I glorified it, I meet people all the time that moved here because of the show that I f**king created and they hate it here now, hate!”In his caption, Doug Ellin urged citizens to vote for “change” and added:“I don’t know that there is a better political system anywhere, but ours sucks. Both sides rob us blind and deliver little. And to be gaslit constantly by hack ‘journalists’ and out-of-touch celebrities is disgusting. I wish I knew what everyone wanted, but my main concerns are that people feel safe and that our government doesn’t steal money from everyone while not delivering anything for anybody. We need change. The best and only option is @spencerpratt.”Besides his above-mentioned response, Doug Ellin also slammed another user for trying to explain to him that he doesn't get to vote for the L.A. mayor as he lives in Beverly Hills. He wrote on X:"Maybe you should watch again and see why drama wanted his house annexed into Beverly Hills. It was so he could get proper services. Same as me. I am Beverly Hills post office, 49 yards from the city. LA county. Sh*t schools, sh*t service, extra taxes and a vote for the mayor of Los Angeles. Which I will use tomorrow."Among his other follow-up posts shutting down trolls, Doug Ellin also shared an image of his official ballot paper with the caption:"Strange night. Lots of people saying that I don’t know where I live or who I can vote for. I assure all of you, I do."Before the June 2 primary unfolds, polls suggest incumbent mayor Karen Bass is at 26 percent, city councillor Nithya Raman at 25 percent, and Spencer Pratt at 22 percent.Doug Ellin is not the only one to have endorsed Pratt. Public figures like Paris Hilton, Billy Bush, Jeanie Buss, David Foster, Katharine McPhee, and Kristin Cavallari have also voiced their support.Spencer Pratt’s campaign was based on tackling issues such as public safety, government budget, homelessness, property crimes, and more, as he positioned himself as a political outsider ready to challenge the status quo in L.A. and the incumbent leadership.
