Stopped in to update metals and post one opinion piece…
Why is America so unaffordable today?
There are a lot of reports today on affordability as the media campaigns for Democrats to take control of the House and Senate this November. Many of the reports talk about how much things cost today versus 2020, while intentionally neglecting to report how much of the unaffordability occurred during the four years of Biden and the Democrats imposing unaffordable policies.
On Wednesday, USA Today ran an article about housing. The headline, “Why so many Americans can’t afford housing anymore,” certainly implies that housing has become unaffordable under Trump, which is intentionally false.
But look at these four bullet points from the article. Three of them are related to housing and renting costs during 2024, the last year of Biden.
- Only 1.1 million new households were formed in 2025 – a number roughly in line with the depths of the Great Recession over a decade ago – as student debt, a weaker job market, and anemic consumer sentiment made Americans wary of striking out on their own.
- Similarly, only 11.2% of Americans relocated in 2024, an all-time low.
- As of 2024, 20.7 million homeowner households (24% of the total) spent more than 30% of their income on housing expenses; 9.6 million spent more than half their income.
- Renters may have it worse: roughly half of all households that rent, or 22.7 million, were cost burdened as of 2024, including 12.1 million that were severely burdened.
So why doesn’t the media report these easily obtained facts from Google AI about prices during the Biden years and so far during Trump?
- Average cost of existing house Dec 2020: $309,800.
- Average cost of existing house Dec 2024: $404,400, up 30% in Biden’s four years.
- Average cost of existing house April 2026: $414,000, up less than 3% in 16 months, or lower than inflation and wage increases.
- Median rent cost December 2020: $1,100 per month.
- Median rent cost December 2024: $1,695 per month, up 54% in four years.
- Median rent cost April 2026: $1,510 to $1,673 per month, or down while Trump is in office.
The reason the media rarely tells the truth about who caused housing unaffordability is the same reason they don’t tell the truth about how Obamacare made health care so much more expensive (and unaffordable).
Biden’s energy, immigration, and regulatory policies are what has made things so unaffordable today, not Trump. Trump is trying to fix the problems, but that takes time.
The media hasn’t cared about facts for a long time, only power for Democrats and the destruction of Trump.

Seems to me that if you shipped off all the people that ain’t supposed to be here, there’d be plenty of houses for those that were left.
And there would probably be such a glut that prices would go down. Tom Homan keeps mentioning that there are 100 million illegals here. That’s an awful lot of housing.
I want to bring up a link that Rosa posted late last night in case anyone missed it:
STUDY: Disturbing Dementia Pattern Found in Vaccinated Adults
https://www.vigilantfox.com/p/study-disturbing-dementia-pattern
“The single largest and most rigorous study ever conducted on vaccines and dementia — spanning 13.3 million UK adults — has uncovered a deeply troubling pattern: those who received common adult vaccines faced a significantly higher risk of both dementia and Alzheimer’s disease.
“The risk intensifies with more doses, remains elevated for a full decade, and is strongest after influenza and pneumococcal vaccination.
“Vaccinated Adults Had a 38% Higher Risk of Dementia
Alzheimer’s Disease Risk Is Even Higher — 50% Increased Risk”
I’ve been suspecting this for a long time. The article particularly mentions flu and pneumonia shots. My 95 year old mother has been getting flu and pneumonia shots every year for over 25 years and she definitely has dementia and Parkinson’s like symptoms.
It’s concerning. It mentions these vaccines, some of which I’m guessing are extremely common:
As you say, people get some of them repeatedly over time. I’m sorry about your mother’s condition. 🙏
I don’t know how effective those vaccines are in fulfilling their stated purpose.

Alzheimer’s Patient Regains Speech & Mobility After High-Dose Magic Mushrooms
The case report suggests psilocybin might temporarily “unlock” lingering abilities by modulating brain networks, but experts emphasize the need for controlled trials. No large-scale evidence yet supports psilocybin as a treatment for advanced Alzheimer’s.
Not a cure but a sure money maker.
What amount would grieving families pay to have a ‘temporary’ interaction with a member who has had Alzheimer’s for years?
