The Budget JD: An Unauthorized Knockoff of the Original

The $1 Mortgage: A Wild Idea That Might Actually Make Sense

Okay, so let’s talk about my so-called “$1 mortgage” idea. Yeah, it started as a joke — a tongue-in-cheek response to Trump’s ridiculous 50-year mortgage proposal.

So, this might sound like a doomer post. Might sound like a defeatist post. But so what. Because, really—at some point, we gotta face the reality of it. The Epstein files.
