The City of Glendale moved with uncharacteristic speed, taking less than a week to rescind the contract once it came to light that detainees were being housed in subpar conditions, and as ICE ramped up their goon squad patrols targeting the people who make our cities function. Rather than celebrate the rule of law and good governance, Glendale Parents [sic] Voices (neither parents nor voices in most cases, just shitposting lies online) doubled down on accusing random LGBT

Both at the council meeting and within the web of social media accounts they are connected to, familiar public comment performance artists Maro Yacoubian, Ray Shelton, and Mike Mohill accused multiple community members by name. Later, an immigration attorney revealed Glendale's contract with ICE to house detainees is still in effect in possible violation of state law.

Ara Najarian continues to suck at being a kind, compassionate person.

Like a virus, Jordan Henry will never really go away-- he'll just morph into new, more aggressive forms, timed to emerge in perfect sync with local political campaign season. Some or all of these events tend to signal the beginning of another public humiliation ritual for Jordan: ranting at public meetings, guesting on niche nazi-adjacent podcasts, and/or launching a new lawsuit. Well, we're a year out from the next local election, so of course, in the last couple weeks w

Ara Najarian continued to grandstand over $5000 for the glendaleOUT 4th Annual Community Picnic last week. Vartan Gharpetian remained, as always, confused. Confused about Vision Zero plans to reduce pedestrian fatalities and injuries. Confused about the picnic. Confused about Grayson repowering costing more due to Trump Tariffs on EU-made equipment. Losing Candidate for Congress Alex Balekian showed up to talk and play a campaign ad. Let's get into another week of lowlights.

Another day, another pathetic city council meeting in Glendale. This time, Ara Najarian, Ardy Kassakhian, and Vartan Gharpetian used every tool at their disposal to avoid granting GlendaleOUT $5000 for their annual Pride in the Park Community Picnic.

Just weeks after Ara Najarian gave a disingenuous apology for amplifying anti-LGBTQ disinformation on a cult-owned fake news channel, he returned to familiar fatuous form at Tuesday's city council meeting.

We wondered what it would take for Ara Najarian to get to be the ceremonial Mayor of Glendale one last time (allegedly). Queen Bee Najarian Yesterday we found out. On Monday, Vartan Gharpetian seemed to think he was next in line for mayor, after Najarian flamed out and melted down, slapping his own city with a lawsuit that was ultimately thrown out, costing taxpayers nearly 65,000 in legal fees and filings. Vartan took to social media to invite everyone to come watch him be

The MAGA folks now control all three branches of the Federal government. As they gut everything from weather services to humanitarian aid to Armenia, our local MAGA are already focused on growing their ranks for 2026 elections. Self-described MAGA "Mama Bear" Lisa Begakis Cusack has been attempting to grow her following in Glendale. Since "fleeing" Los Angeles for Glendale in 2021 because she was terrified of "riots" and "homeless people" she quickly ingratiated herself into

Sometimes we go through the City Council archives for fun . In this September 24, 2019 meeting, you can see then-mayor Ara Najarian, the current longest-serving councilman, and Vartan Gharpetian (in his first term). The men are responding to public comment from a local student inviting them to Pride activities for the newly-established Ally Week within their GUSD school. (Note: This is deep into the Trump era, but before the extremist far right decided to target LGBTQ issues

What a week! Candidate Alex Balekian has spent the homestretch of his "campaign" for Congress complaining at Glendale City Council meetings, wearing lederhosen, putting up Really Big Signs, and filling out ballots for grandmothers. While all three activities are legal, they are not the hallmark of a well-organized congressional campaign. Balekian demanded to have his WHOLE FACE shown on the camera so he could get his VIRAL MOMENT of another tirade against Laura Friedman (can
