Video: Tito Ortiz accused of ‘empowering’ white supremacists ahead of Huntington Beach KKK rally

UFC Hall of Famer Tito Ortiz continues to struggle with his duties as Mayor Pro Tem of Huntington Beach, CA.

In a city council meeting last week Ortiz was put on the spot regarding his refusal to wear a mask. His reaction lead to city council opting to remain digital, for fear that Ortiz would create a scene that required law enforcement if they tried to go back to in-person meetings.

At this week’s meeting a couple of public comments blasted Ortiz for his support of far-right personalities, ideologies and conspiracies. The comments came from individuals who were concerned about a White Lives Matter event that is planned to take place in the city on April 11.
