Honored to be named WCAC Coach of the Year. Credit to the team who played with grit and relentless effort. I challenged them to be 1% better every day, and they exceeded every expectation. Proud of the strides we made as a group, alongside great staff and supportive families.
The 50-year mortgage is a trap. Let's break it down..
The average home price in Maryland is around $437k.
In Southern Maryland, about $400k (per Redfin).
$400,000 Mortgage at 6%
30-Year Mortgage:
- Monthly Payment: $2,398
- Total Paid: $863,352
- $463,352 of that is interest
50-Year Mortgage:
- Monthly Payment: $2,106
- Total Paid: $1,263,552
- $863,552 of that is interest
So the 50-year loan saves you about $292 per month today, but costs over $400,000 more in interest over time.
Interest is the problem.
And the bank understands this perfectly.
If you’re 30, that means making mortgage payments until you’re 80. Gen Z already struggles to afford homes. This does not fix the problem. It just locks people into more debt for most of their lives.
Instead of ending the policies that made homes unaffordable, they want to propose a new way to ensure lifelong borrowers.
This is not housing affordability.
This is financial entrapment.

Anxiously awaiting a statement from the FBI and DOJ—and full disclosure of their investigative efforts into January 6 and the pipe bombs.
We’ve waited far too long for answers!

This might just be the biggest scandal and conspiracy in American history. Many heroes were involved in bringing this to light. Some we can name in coming days. Some who want no recognition. And there’s much more to this yet to be told.

This is the biggest scandal of my lifetime. Steve Baker did what an $11 billion dollar agency, the FBI, could not do… or worse yet, covered up. He identified the J6 pipe bomber, and she wasn’t working alone.
@FBIDirectorKash needs to make a statement tomorrow when this breaks.
🚨Update on J6 Pipe Bomber Report🚨
After an abundance of counsel from trusted parties within and outside the government, we've hit the pause button so those interested parties can have some more time to look at the J6 pipe bomber evidence. There are things they need to do internally.
This is a real story. When it breaks, it's going to be a HUGE story. There are a lot of moving parts, but we need to give them time to do what they need to do, and I know everyone is waiting. Believe me. Tensions are running high. There have been a lot of sleepless nights the last two weeks. But this is a game-changer, and we don't want to do anything to jeopardize that right now.
I was up at 3:30 am preparing the video clips for the release on this morning’s Glenn Beck Program. Contrary to what so many X complainers will say, this wasn’t a hype stunt for views and clicks. And no, the government didn’t silence us. Glenn and I both were pretty amped up to put it all out this morning. And we were both very disappointed when the decision to postpone was made.
The government’s investigation into the J6 pipe bombs was going nowhere just two weeks ago. Today I can tell you that has all changed. A bunch of people got pretty spun up yesterday.
Hang tight. It’s all coming.
Wait, what? A USCP officer at the time of J6, later turned CIA, is the alleged pipe bomber suspect? Pelosi's committee destroyed evidence and silenced testimony. FBI, explain yourselves. America deserves the truth.
This might just be the biggest scandal and conspiracy in American history. Many heroes were involved in bringing this to light. Some we can name in coming days. Some who want no recognition. And there’s much more to this yet to be told.

Supposedly, the Fed exists to support a stable economy. Meanwhile, five banks collected $188 billion in interest from the Fed, and every dollar came from taxpayers.
Why are banks being rewarded by an institution in our government for parking cash instead of lending it?
My bill stops these interest payments and audits the system. I have two bills for this: one to audit the Fed and another to end the Fed’s big bank bailout. This money ought to go back to Main Street, not Wall Street.
Same football. Same pull. Same fall. 'Free stuff' is the oldest con. Dependency is the trap. That's how they take your power.
Good luck, NYC.

Endless money printing is the source of most of your economic woes.
It's not 'billionaires', 'capitalism', or any particular race of people.
Your pounds, dollars, euros, naira, and yen are devalued daily.
And as long as the problem is misdiagnosed, it will continue forever.
Looks like @GovWesMoore's idea of fairness is to score more political points with The Party™.
You can't claim the moral high ground while doing the same thing you accuse others of, especially when MD is already gerrymandered.
How about we stop treating voters like pawns?
Happy Halloween! The boys went as their favorite @AdamSandler characters, and my daughter made sure the birds stayed away from their candy.
SCARY TRUTH TIME! 🎃
In Jan 2020, the national debt was $23T with $34.3B owed in interest that month. Today, it's over $38T, with over $1.3T paid in interest just this year (surpassing our $900B national defense budget).
Soon, the interest will be the budget's biggest line item.
The national debt has morphed into the most terrifying menace, fueling inflation, eroding our money’s value, and robbing future generations of prosperity.
Congrats, big government, you’ve birthed a vampire!
Wes Moore: 'I'll take care of our people!'
Also Wes Moore: Turns a $5.5B surplus into a deficit, imposes 300+ new taxes and fees, gives $6M to a nonprofit that didn't file taxes since '22, and spends $2.3M on his mansion.
Wes Moore's version of 'care' is another tax bill. Big government logic at its finest.
He's not wrong. @shaunking
I actually think it's a great idea to build a big ballroom on the White House grounds.
It's virtually impossible to hold events of any size there and they are always wasting millions on tents and heaters and chairs and lights and everything else.
Stop acting like you have some emotional attachment to the East Wing. You don't.
So, you're going to 'make sure our maps are fair' by gerrymandering them even more in favor of Democrats, which already have a 7-1 advantage in MD?
Sounds like you're just playing the same game you say Trump is doing, but it's (d)ifferent for you. Fairness isn't about countering one party's manipulation with another's.
How about we stop treating voters like pawns?
"We’ve got your back" with more taxes and fees imposed? That's not support, @iamwesmoore it's a burden. Let Marylanders keep their money. Government’s the problem, not the solution.
Call @ChrisVanHollen and @Sen_Alsobrooks to pass the CR and end the shutdown.
Marylanders deserve to know we’ve got their back.
During this shutdown, I’m working to make sure our families get the support they need — and that no Marylander falls through the cracks. We’re going to keep showing up, keep finding solutions, and keep standing with the people who make this state strong.
