This week's #FridayNightZillow kicks off with an over-the-top, "new construction" Florida mega-mansion for Ferrari aficionados. It's properly insane, and yet hangs together well. $55 million on "Billionaire's Row" in Delray Beach. Feature a private soccer field, several party showers, the most luxurious bar I've ever seen, and an assortment of other eye candy. So follow along and tell your friends... | Crossposting on BlueSky. If you had 300 years of a Senate salary, you still couldn't afford itImage
This bar is just totally nuts. #FridayNightZillow Image

Imagine walking in and the first thing you see is this slide and murals everywhere. This house is *relentless.* #FridayNightZillow Image
If you are spending $25M you don't want one of those cookie-cutter black and white dining rooms in all the Potomac McMansions. Here, you get dragons and looks like Chihuly? #FridayNightZillow Image

This house is 6K sf in DC, and has a party shower. #FridayNightZillow. I thought it would be priced higher. <$3M. Not sure about the curb appeal. What say you? zillow.com/homedetails/57…Image

Two years ago, Congress considered banning 18-20 year-olds from buying AR-15s and other semi-automatic rifles after the Uvalde massacre, and some Republicans were briefly open to doing so but ultimately blocked including a ban in the bipartisan gun bill signed by Biden.
Then-Florida Governor Rick Scott signed a law raising the age to buy guns in his state to 21 after the Parkland massacre, but then opposed doing the same for the nation as a US Senator. He told reporters it was easier to do it at the state level.
McConnell actually enacted a law one day to raise the age to buy cigarettes to 21. But he didn't want to talk two years ago about a proposal to raise the age for buying rifles.

Soaring cost estimates for extending Trump tax cuts set up a crucial 2025 fight:
*CBO puts tab at $4.6 Trillion over next decade
*Fight comes with US debt far higher than 2017, interest costs ballooning & Social Security cliff looming...

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
*Trump wants more tax cuts, along with massive new tariffs — aka a tax on imports — that would raise consumer prices but offset at least some of the cost.
*Biden wants to extend breaks <$400K a year paired with higher taxes on corporations and the wealthy.
If past is prologue, Congress will again play Santa Claus. With a few exceptions, Congress has repeatedly increased spending and cut taxes since 2001.
