Trump isn’t going to do anything to address ridiculous prices, but he will let you mortgage a house for 50 years!

His banker buddies will LOVE that. A $400,000 house will cost you a million dollars over 50 years.

What’s next, 10 year auto loans? 🤢
Trump and his cronies are now pushing 50-year mortgages.

Buckle up. This is going to make the 2008 mortgage crisis look like the good old days.

I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

Companies who lay off people to replace them with AI are shortsighted. Use AI to go faster with the same resources and become a market differentiator.

I couldn’t even read a paragraph of the transcript without getting sick to my stomach.
When I read the full transcript of the interview, I realized there had been no pushback, no corrections, no challenging follow-ups. The entire interview had been an open-ended opportunity for Trump to tell rambling lies, only to have them cleaned up into a more polished product.

Congress has provided a contingency plan for SNAP to keep the program going for years in case of a shut down. The USDA sneakily took the plan down. Now blue states are suing to continue benefits for their constituents.
Where is the money going?

Why do I get the feeling he wants to test them in blue states?
A long-deranged and deeply depraved man with a pronouncedly and acceleratingly deteriorating mind announces that he intends to play with the large arsenal of nuclear weapons he controls.

But it's okay, because he's not seeking a third term.

This is nuts. And we would like to know more about these "guided missile warheads."

Good reporting via @juddlegum.bsky.social / @popular.info
ICE’s spending on weaponry has soared more than 700 percent this year
The $71.5 million spent so far has paid for guns and armor, chemical munitions, “guided missile warheads," and "explosive components.”
