The campaign filed an ethics complaint Sunday accusing Thrive LA of five disclosure violations and demanding action before the Nov. 3 election.

But Thrive denies wrongdoing, accusing Raman of trying to bully critics into silence.

Zone → advertise → you
The group also sent a battered RV cruising through LA, mimicking the dilapidated vehicles lining city streets.

Thrive executive director Ana Teresa Dahan defended the campaign as political satire, saying the group’s political spending and advertising were disclosed through the Los Angeles City Ethics Commission, where The California Post independently verified the existence of public filings.

“They wouldn’t have known it was us if we hadn’t put the disclosure,” Dahan told The Post Monday.

asserted
caller → dial → tent
Each answer triggered another question, continuing a back-and-forth exchange mocking Raman’s homelessness policies.
asserted
answer → trigger → policies
During The Post’s call, the voice did not identify Thrive as the sponsor or disclose that the conversation was AI-generated political advertising.
asserted
conversation → identify → sponsor
Raman’s campaign says callers should not have to ask who is behind the recording to learn they are listening to a political advertisement.
asserted
they → say → advertisement
“Our argument is it needs to be a disclaimer.
asserted
it → need → ?
There is not,” a campaign representative told The Post, saying it should be taken down.

it → be → Post
The complaint also targets a network of Instagram accounts accused of spreading anti-Raman videos to potentially millions of viewers without identifying who paid for them.

who → target → them
Among the accounts identified were @males_hub_, with approximately 1.2 million followers, and @ratchethoodvideos, with 806,000.
asserted
@males_hub → identify → 806,000
The videos featured Thrive’s mock real estate signs and battered RV, alongside messages including “Want an encampment down the block?
