THOMAS D. ELIAS Sign outside the Water Garden, a sprawling Santa Monica office complex: Space available — 360,000 square feet. That’s a lot of vacant space in a prime location just blocks from the Pacific Ocean that features 17 acres of modern six-story buildings, fountains and basketball courts, a luxury gym, hallways of Italian and Brazilian marble, restaurant and commercial spaces and more. But so far, no takers. Similar signs and no-taker situations no longer merely do...

THOMAS D. ELIAS Vice President Kamala Harris took a lot of heat for her performance in her first foreign trip as the nation’s No. 2 official, some bloggers calling her excursion into Latin America “a continuation of her failure theater.” That phrase came from a conservative website, but the far left also blasted Harris for telling the poorest of the Central American poor “Do not come” to the United States. The remark had future electoral implications because...

A national rise in anti-Jewish bigotry has allegedly spread to this state’s most prestigious university after earlier infecting the process of creating California’s new ethnic studies curriculum, columnist Tom Elias

Newsoms newfound focus on mental health could help ease the homelessness epidemic — it he keeps it up, columnist Tom Elias says.

Even if unsuccessful, the recall may remind the dominant Democrats that not all Californians are super-lefty columnist Tom Elias says.

“All politics is loco,” the New York Times headlined during California’s 2003 recall campaign. That never looked more true than in mid-May, when gubernatorial recall replacement candidate John Cox campaigned with a Kodiak bear to demonstrate his “beastly” qualities, then complained loudly because the bear got more attention than he did. Or when reality TV star Caitlyn Jenner, running as a “compassionate” right-winger, griped that seeing too many homeless drove...

THOMAS D. ELIAS The ultimate goal of city and county agencies trying to solve California’s homeless problem is to get this transient populace into permanent housing. But it turns out many of the homeless don’t want the kind of permanent units that are becoming more available as local, state and federal governments devote ever more money to getting them off the streets. No one knows precisely how many of the state’s approximately 161,000 homeless prefer to keep sleepin...

THOMAS D. ELIAS As the signatures that qualified the Gavin Newsom recall election for a statewide vote began arriving in big numbers at county recorder’s offices around California, the governor soon realized he could no longer ignore the threat. Rather, it was time for him to speak up, and also to begin seeing this as the opportunity of a lifetime to establish a brand as a courageous, defiant Democrat who will not be intimidated. That’s why just two days before the St. Pat...

THOMAS D. ELIAS Almost all the usual rules of California elections are off today, as the state heads toward its second gubernatorial recall election of the last 18 years. The list of candidates to replace Gov. Gavin Newsom will surely be interesting, but perhaps not as odd as what voters faced when they decided in 2003 who should replace then-Gov. Gray Davis. They plainly did not regret choosing movie muscleman Arnold Schwarzenegger for his most interesting role ever, reelecting him...
