Blow your mind start to #FridayNightZillow: Inspired by Tron & Ferrari, 100% cray cray. "Welcome to the most interesting home on the market." Dallas. $3.96M. zillow.com/homedetails/50…
You get yurts, a meditation room, gardens, tent platforms, a studio, and, oh, that's the Pacific Ocean over there! (Very close to Canada). #FridayNightZillow
Presidents have supposedly stayed here, the beach is just across the street, and it apparently comes with a property tax break, naturally. #FridayNightZillow
We get old timey buildings, a gift shop, an old timey photo place for the tourists, living quarters we can rent on AirB&B, and so on. #FridayNightZillow
Checking to make sure you are still awake. We've got a lot more to show tonight. This is a bathroom. In New Jersey. In a house built in 2007! $1.59M. #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/34…?
"Siri, how much would it cost to replace the tile in every bathroom in this house?" #FridayNightZillow
Bourbon storage/drinking room. It is Kentucky, after all. My eye can't tell if there's any "Old Crow" — Trump's least favorite — on the shelf. #FridayNightZillow
This is a first time I've seen this: A party shower inside a restored historic home. #FridayNightZillow
$1.85M buys you a 6BR, 6BA, nearly 9K sf Davidsonville mansion. 45-minute commute to the US Capitol during the week, and you get a short drive to paradise — Annapolis — on the weekend. And it has a fun feature... #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/10…
Fixer-upper/potential Haunted House of the Week. A former Maryland gov's house from the 1850s w/11BA, 6BR. "It's not perfect and that is exactly why you can get this 8000 sqft home for only $200k." I'm inspired to write a murder mystery. #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/82…
The best house of the week might be this $725K mid-century modern masterpiece, which I RT'd a few days ago. #FridayNightZillow
Hard to call a nearly $3M house a "bargain," but this Helena, Montana mansion has 20K square feet, 30BRs and 11BAs. Enough to house 50 people no problemo. #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/22…
Our Showstopper tonight just might be the most insane house in all of Nevada. It's been on the market for a while and I think I've shown some of it before but it just can't seem to sell. $32.5M. #FridayNightZillowzillow.com/homedetails/27…?
Parts of it haves sort of a hotel lobby feel. But it's really designed for very, very large parties. 4BR, 9BAs, 14K sf. #FridayNightZillow
I don't really have any idea what's going on here. I assume it's some kind of West Coast thing. #FridayNightZillow
I think this is actually adjoining party showers. No idea why. #FridayNightZillow
If you're spending this kind of money you want a BR with a view and some drama. This one has both. Although a friend of mine told me you shouldn't have anything red in your bedroom. #FridayNightZillow
All the toys: Car elevator, climbing wall, basketball court, Ginormous TV of the gods with opening glass wall to outside. #FridayNightZillow
The putt-putt course is a nice touch too. Hope you enjoyed this week! Special thanks to my daughter, sister-in-law, wife and tipsters! #FridayNightZillow

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.

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…

"What happens in jail stays in jail" lol. Jail-bar pillows are a nice touch. #FridayNightZillow
One of the scarier things I've seen on Zillow. Let's hope this is a prop and not an actual electric chair. #FridayNightZillow
Ozempic can be produced for less than $5 a month, a new study found, but Danish company Novo Nordisk charges Americans $968.52. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Bernie Sanders insisting the company charge Americans no more than it charges Canadians for the same drug.
Ozempic pricing page. Many people get discounts on this price, or have insurance companies (ie premiums) or taxpayers pay the bill. novopricing.com/ozempic.html
McConnell helped nix:
Roe
Campaign finance reform
Individual mandate
Medicare dental & vision
Dream Act
$35 insulin cap
Minimum wage hike
Flag burning amendment
Making Election Day a holiday
Public option
SCOTUS filibuster
Pro Act 1/6 Commission
Oil export ban
Cap&trade
Tax hikes
Vast majority of laws since 2007 have had either the acquiescence of McConnell or his outright support, with notable exceptions, like the Affordable Care Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, Obama stimulus, Biden Covid relief, Dodd-Frank, Lilly Ledbetter, USA Freedom Act, Paygo.
One way to look at McConnell is that he has often had the role of editor of Congress. Empowered by the filibuster and his conference, he had a key veto point in Washington; spending, taxing and legislating had to pass through his filter.
