Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass and President Donald Trump have finally broken their silence. Months after a tense public clash over rebuilding the Pacific Palisades following the devastating 2025 wildfires, the progressive mayor and the Republican president spoke directly by phone, a conversation Bass revealed in an interview Friday with KNX Los Angeles City Hall reporter Craig Fiegener that was obtained by The Post. Bass said she called the White House early in the week and Trump returned her call on Thursday.
