Freeze Warnings, 50-Year Mortgages, Cheney Dies, and… the Louvre’s Password Was ‘LOL’?

This week’s episode is a wild ride: Florida is about to plunge into the 30s, Dick Cheney has passed away, and NYC voters just elected Mamdani as mayor in a political shockwave. We’re now 40 days into the government shutdown and the airlines are melting down. Kim Kardashian might actually become a lawyer, Fannie Mae is scrapping the 620 middle-score requirement, and Washington is floating a 50-year mortgage that could permanently reshape homeownership. Meanwhile, The Blaze is reporting that the mysterious J6 bomber may have been a former Capitol Police officer, and a new tariff proposal could send a $2,000 annual dividend to every American. Plus: new claims that Epstein was offered a plea deal to implicate Trump, the latest 3I Atlas drop for December 19, Pope Leo’s declaration that Jesus alone saved the world (sorry, Mary-co-redeemer crowd), and—yes—the Louvre’s security password was literally “Louvre LOL.” Strap in. This episode has everything.
