Aspiring Los Angeles Mayor Spencer Pratt shared a savage new video taking aim at his Democratic political rivals.
The reality star reposted a video which used his likeness as a Batman-inspired vigilante taking on the likes of incumbent Mayor Karen Bass and Governor Gavin Newsom.
Pratt, 42, launched his campaign for mayor in January after Bass suffered a backlash for her response to the LA wildfires.
Pratt and his wife Heidi Montag were among those who lost their home in the blazes, which decimated more than 6,800 structures across Southern California.
Despite previously being best known for his stint on MTV's The Hills, Pratt has emerged as a dark horse in the mayoral race.
He been vocal against LA City Councilwoman Nithya Raman and Bass for turning a 'blind eye' to many of the issues that plague the city. Bass in turn has accused Pratt of capitalizing on the grief of wildfire victims.
But on Tuesday, Pratt ramped up his attacks by resharing a seemingly AI-generated video on X, which portrayed himself as a superhero taking on California politicians and the Hollywood elite.
The video, posted by filmmaker Charles Curran, showed politicians including Bass, whose face was painted to look like Joker, Newsom and Former Vice President Kamala Harris, sitting on thrones while the city burns and residents beg for help.

Former Florida Governor Jeb Bush shared the video and wrote: 'Maybe the best political ad of the year.'
The Daily Mail contacted Pratt's campaign for comment. According to The Spectator, Pratt did not commission the ad but he did repost it on his X account.
It comes after Bass was blasted for a recent interview in which she dismissed Pratt's rising profile while questioning his motives.
'Well, honestly, before this, I had never heard of Spencer Pratt,' Bass said. 'The thing I am concerned and feel about him is that I feel like he's exploiting the grief of people in the Palisades. And I think that's reprehensible. He is about his own celebrity.'
She delivered the comments as she defended her leadership during the catastrophic 2025 wildfires but they immediately triggered outrage, particularly because Pratt himself is among those who lost everything in the blaze.
Bass suggested Pratt lacked a basic understanding of governance, saying he 'could benefit by a basic civics course,' arguing she had not seen 'a proposal for a solution or a remedy' from him.
Pratt fired back within hours, turning Bass's attack into a rallying cry for his campaign.
The LA fires in January 2025 were the most destructive blaze in the city's history and burned down more than 6,800 homes and buildings across Southern California
Pratt's opponents, Bass and Councilwoman Nithya Raman, have slammed the former reality star for his viral campaign ads
'Karen always likes to talk about HER experience and never YOUR experience in her city,' he wrote on social media.
'I actually care more about YOUR daily experience in LA… I have experienced the consequences of Karen Bass' failed leadership. All of us have. She needs to step aside.'
The clash underscores a broader political shift unfolding in Los Angeles ahead of the June 2 mayoral primary, a race that has grown increasingly unpredictable as outsider candidates gain traction.
Pratt has repositioned himself as a populist challenger, using his personal loss in the fires as both testimony and political ammunition.
In a widely circulated campaign ad, he argued that neither Raman nor Bass has to contend with the homelessness crisis while living in their cushy neighborhoods.
'This is where Mayor Bass lives. Notice something? Or here, where Nithya Raman’s $3 million mansion sits,' Pratt said in the ad while standing in front of Raman's home in Silver Lake. 'They don’t have to live in the mess they’ve created.'
The ad then cut to Pratt walking alongside a road with numerous homeless encampments on the sidewalk.
'They let my home burn down. I know the consequences of failed leadership,' he added.
Raman condemned Pratt for filming outside her home for the ad, calling the move 'unnecessary and reckless,' while Pratt responded by saying her reaction 'validat[ed] the entire premise of our commercial.'
