House Bill Breakdown and Inflation Update | ZFS 89
Description
Three things on the table today. The Road to Housing Act, the jobs numbers, and Trump enriching himself from office.
I walk through the housing bill section by section and give you my honest take on what is actually good, what is a grant nobody will fund, and what is missing entirely. The corporate ownership cap has no divestment clause. That is a problem. The manufactured home chassis requirement removal is one of the best ideas in the whole bill. I break it all down.
On jobs, they expected 110,000 new jobs this month. We got closer to 50,000. April and May were revised down again. Gen Z graduates are entering the worst entry level job market in four decades. One in three junior roles has already been replaced by AI. And Caroline Levitt went on Fox News and said it is because they do not love America enough.
Then we get into Trump's crypto holdings, his meme coin dinner with top holders, and Nancy Pelosi's trading record. And we close on the most viral tweet of 2026 so far, Eric Adams telling New Yorkers to set their AC to 78 degrees and Dave Portnoy calling it communism.
Ads, as always, are off for the first 24 hrs.
