OutKick founder Clay Travis and Fox News contributor Joe Concha discuss Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass’s approval ratings and Spencer Pratt’s momentum on ‘Hannity.’
Spencer Pratt is not afraid of critics.
The former reality star, whose campaign for mayor of Los Angeles has been picking up steam, was mocked byChelsea Handler, but he was quick to get in a jab of his own.
Handler posted avideoto social media on Friday, telling her followers, "Oh hi, if you're seeing this video, this is a reminder that a straight white male former reality star that has no previous experience in government should not be a legitimate political candidate."
The video had been displaying photos of Pratt, but she inserted a photo of PresidentDonald Trumpbefore saying, "Have we learned anything yet?"

"The bar is on the f---ing floor, people, and I need you to jump over it," she added. "OK, thank you, have a nice day!"
Hours later, Pratt took to X to respond.
"Most of you have probably never heard of Chelsea Handler, so here's an introduction!" hewrote, attaching a video of comedian Shane Gillis at the recent Netflix roast of Kevin Hart.
In the video, Gillis said, "Chelsea Handler went to dinner atJeffrey Epstein'shouse in 2010. That's just a fun one. You can look it up, there's articles. It wasn't like a big party, there was, like, seven people there. It was like, Prince Andrew and Woody Allen were there."

Fox News Digital has reached out to Handler for comment.
Handler has admitted to going to Epstein's home multiple times over the years. While guest-hosting "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" in 2022, shesaidthat while she'd never been to Epstein's island, she did "accidentally" find herself at the dinner party with the aforementioned guests, having been brought along by Katie Couric.
She joked, in the monologue and in other interviews, that while dining with Allen and his wife, Soon-Yi Previn — who Allen originally knew as the adopted daughter of his longtime partner, Mia Farrow — she asked the couple, "So how did you two meet?"
