Llangollen, an 1,100-acre Virginia estate first established in the 1700s, is kicking off #FridayNightZillow tonight. George Washington and Marquis de Lafayette came here. Now an Olde-money-style horse haven and upscale polo grounds. $27.5M. zillow.com/homedetails/21…
"More than two centuries as a political, equestrian and social mecca of the influential and glitterati..." if you're the kind of rich person into that sort of thing. There are many, many, many horse stalls, multiple polo grounds and staff to run it all. #FridayNightZillow
Bloomberg write-up from 2019: "Gilded Age Playboy's 1,100-Acre Polo Estate" - referring to previous owner John Hay Whitney, who financed Gone With The Wind, bought the New York Herald Tribune and served as ambassador to Great Britain. #FridayNightZillowbloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Up next: Waterfront mansion in Kokomo, Indiana w/CRAY-LUXE decor. Going to have to ice my retinas! "4,000-pound granite lions"? 4.6 acres. $1.89M. #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homes/4708-Lak…
This kitchen alone is nearly 1,000 sf. It's overwhelming. #FridayNightZillow
This office is a lot to process. You've got a stuffed alligator, a sculpted bush, weird busts, etc. Don't ask me why, because I have no idea. #FridayNightZillow
Utah mansion carved from a lava field with 3,400 sticks of dynamite. Rock formations inside, grotto/pools/hot tubs outside. $5.6M. #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/15…?
Nice views, appropriately funky kitchen, sunken tub. $10M? What do we think, gang? #FridayNightZillow
This bedroom is giving me a headache; I'd worry I'd break a hip getting out of bed. Over-the-top Florida mansion with startling levels of taxidermy. $5.995M #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/24…?
I find all party showers a little bizarre, but this one really has me wondering what goes on in these mansions. #FridayNightZillow
Tonight's showstopper is a $1.499M house a couple hours from the US Capitol in Hedgesville, WV. 10BR/13BA, >13Ksf on 51 acres! Close to the Potomac River and Maryland! Hope you enjoyed #FridayNightZillow! zillow.com/homedetails/47…

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.

So #FridayNightZillow is back with a BANG! This is the Bonkers McBonkerspants Mansion of the Year! $25M. BOCA. Warning: You'll need to ice your retinas. 209 pics of overstuffed insanity! Crossposting on BlueSky and Threads. buff.ly/3OcGdfc?https:…
Imagine walking in and the first thing you see is this slide and murals everywhere. This house is *relentless.* #FridayNightZillow
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
"One of the most beautiful Earthships ever built"

Thanks to @MolotovFlicker for sending this one in
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…
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...
w/@chrisjcondon 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.
Tonight's #FridayNightZillow is kicking off with a *House of the Year* contender. It's amazeballs! We just need to crowdfund $2.795M. We get 9,825 square feet of sheer madness on 36 acres in gorgeous Plymouth, Minnesota! I love it!!! INSANE sinks, WEIRD art, WILD ceilings, AMAZING kitchen, views, colors galore, a pond, a party shower and much, MUCH more. Several of you sent me this gem! 🧵 zillow.com/homedetails/51…
