Yes this is June 3. and below is news from less than a month ago

https://finance.yahoo.com/personal-finance/mortgages/article/mortgage-rates-fall-below-6-for-first-time-in-over-3-years-110032209.html
This is today! And note how fast house purchases are flying at current rates and prices.

On a serious note, I wish the intelligence existed to discuss the implications of either view, but I guess partisanship must get in the way.

"Low mortgage rates lead to high home prices, and affordability collapses as insurance, property taxes, HOA fees, and other expenses surge with home prices. Too-low mortgage rates have turned out to be very costly."

Budaatum, not a word from you about police brutality and neglect. Imagine this was done to a person with the a skin color other than white.
I actually have sympathy for the police who were lied to by all the Sikh's relatives who were present and are now rightly all going to jail.

This is the insane entity people like Basilico , benalvino3 and others worship and adore for a living,.

Just take a look at a president that clings on to conspiracy theories to perpetually deceive his base. Reason why he needed slush funds to support his insanity.

What a presi-diot.

So yu have now seen that the rates are lower than they have been in the past 3yrs which is at odds with your agenda
Trump admin has worked to reduce interest rate

Lower interest rates normally translate to increase number of people who can bid and in turn increase in cost of purchase. This has nothing to do with any govt, Its basic ecnomics

When the FBI tried to take him out before he became the president, during his presidency and after it, I don't blame him. That does not mean he is right.

So it's okay. Let him do this to them, they deserve it.

What I see is that you are not even looking! But that surprises me not in the least.

This measure of the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate has been in the 6-7% range, except for some breakouts to the upside, since September 2022.

I shouldn't need to have to explain this to you if you followed the news.

When police arrived at the murder scene in Southampton, Digwa falsely claimed Nowak had racially abused him and knocked his turban off, causing officers to arrest and handcuff the student before they saw his fatal injuries.

When they increase tax, bayelsaowei don't want you to think twice, just pay the tax.

It's why California is a dying state and companies and people are fleeing the insanity.

What you are quoting is the problem.

You go to a place, you took the words of a man who is not white (advantage) over a guy who is white (disadvantage) because they heard the word racism.

They did not stop to think why the accused was on the floor when they got there, couple that with the fact he was saying he has been stabbed.

They did not check, they say he is lying, then put a handcuff on him.

That's the two tier policing I have been telling you about.

The killer was never handcuffed even when he was being arrested. They treated him so well knowing he killed someone. Even offering him a meal.

Is the current mortgag interest rat lower than when Trump took over last January?
Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by budaatum: 8:46pm On Jun 03
The police will always take the word of the person who called them over who was called about, as any reasonable person would. But the race element here would trigger your objection, as expected.

As to your "two tier", a lot of us recognise it's a swing to the other side after it being the other race who's rights were denied through institutional racism for decades. But I don't expect you to understand that, since your own knowledge of things always starts today with total disregard to how we got here.

Below is some info for you to start educating yourself, but I wouldn't be holding my breath.

Trust you to have the most basic understanding of a range.

Yes, the current average US mortgage interest rate is lower than when Donald Trump took office in January 2025. As of June 2026, the benchmark 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averages 6.53% according to Freddie Mac's latest data. By comparison, when President Trump assumed office in January 2025, the average 30-year fixed mortgage rate sat notably higher at approximately 6.91% to 6.95%.

Ask me again in 6 months and in a years time.

There is common sense here, and no, the police should not automatically believe the person who called them. The caller gives them a starting point, not the final truth.

Police are supposed to look at the situation when they arrive. If violence is still going, detain people first and separate them.

In this case, the violence was no longer happening. The man was already on the ground, saying he had been stabbed, and instead of checking him properly, they dismissed him as lying and handcuffed him.

That is the problem.

You are trying to say the police taking one person’s word because of a racism allegation, but that is exactly what I mean by two-tier policing.

Once the race card entered the story, they stopped using their common sense. They treated the accused as guilty and ignored the most obvious fact at the scene, he was the one injured and asking for help.

So the contrast matters. The man who actually killed someone was not treated with the same suspicion or force. He was handled calmly, respectfully, even offered food. Meanwhile, the victim was handcuffed while injured.

This is not about institutional racism, but you cannot correct past injustice by creating a new injustice.

Policing should be based on evidence, the scene, injuries, risk, and behavior not simply who made the accusation first or which racial narrative sounds more believable.

I have watched many videos where the one who called the police accusing someone falsely was the one who got arrested.

First, stop with your lying that I am "trying to say the police taking one person’s word because of a racism allegation"! You know you are lying and that's why you claim "trying", when you know I'm not "trying" anything of the sort.

If I call the police and claim you are attacking me, my call is their "starting point", and in this case the "starting point" was Vickrum Digwa's call.

It's unfortunate the "final truth", determined less than 3 minutes later, was Henry Nowak's fatality, and is why I feel for them.

The police were not Sikhs, and its unreasonable and stup¹d and ¹gnorant and a waste of my time to assume they were being racist against Henry whom they shared race with.

From what you quoted I never said what you said I said, you quoted exactly what I said, yet I am the one lying? Are you serious?

See what you said: "The police will always take the word of the person who called them over who was called about, as any reasonable person would."

You are saying the police was lied to. Anyone who has common sense and does not prioritize race (hate crime) should apply common sense to their surroundings and circumstances, they failed to do so. All they want is to arrest someone accused of a hate crime.

It's a shame.

It's like you talking about ignorance in Nigeria's situation even if that's not the case for the looters.

The crowd was full of love for the nation.. Patriots. They wanted the actual results upheld.
I perfectly understand your lack of understanding of the actual events . You believe the narrative put out by democrats.
I posted yesterday about documents hidden by FBI and DOJ in burn bags,which are being examined by diGenova in Florida. Why you think they were hidden? The sham J6 Committee also destroyed documents and deleted video evidence in their way out
The Mueller commission. 17 of them deleted everything on their govt issued iphones ,entering the wrong password 10 times in a row. 17 high ranking attorneys and investigators ,the lead Mueller honcho Andrew Weissman regularly appears on MSNOW.

Notice the FBI esp Cris Wray has never said there was no fraud in 2020. He says they didn't have enough evidence to overturn the elections.Very clever of him. Plausible deniability.

Be patient,though mine is running out.
How am I supposed to find evidence,when FBI and DOJ have been caught red-handed destroying documents. Tell me what they were hiding ,and I'll instantly change my stance. What were they hiding ?
Re: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by basilico:
Elon Musk says Derek Chauvin should be released.

George Floyd had enough fentanyl in his system to kill a horse. He had no injuries to the trachea. Also had plenty of other drugs in his system.
When he saw police he quickly swallowed something , CCTV footage showed a white dot in his mouth

Pill fragments Found: Forensic scientists testified that investigators discovered white pills containing fentanyl and methamphetamine inside the vehicle George Floyd was riding in.
The Squad Car: A small, partially dissolved pill fragment containing George Floyd's DNA and saliva was found in the back of the police squad car where he was briefly held. This indicated he had oral contact with a pill during the encounter, but no "sachet" or baggie was ever recovered or noted.


Chauvin stood no chance . The lead prosecutor was Keith Ellison. Keith had been the DNC chair just before 2016. A DNC chair is a very powerful person when it comes to lobbying for funds .
The police denied that the restraint method used to subdue Floyd was never taught to it's officers. Which was a huge lie

Someone made a YouTube video where he was restrained for 10 minutes and nothing happened.

The only way I'll believe George Floyd died from the knee is if a willing liberal volunteer agrees to be injected with the same amount of drugs George had in his system. Plus the volunteer should have COVID and an underlying heart disease. If he survives it ,I'll call for the death penalty on Chauvin.
This was exactly what was found by the coroner in George Floyd's blood.
_Fentanyl: 11 ng/mL (nanograms per milliliter)
_Norfentanyl (a metabolite produced when the body breaks down fentanyl): 5.6 ng/mL
_Methamphetamine: 19 ng/mLTHC (Marijuana metabolites):
_Delta-9 THC at 2.9 ng/mL;
_Delta-9 Carboxy THC at 42 ng/mL
_4-ANPP (a precursor/byproduct of fentanyl manufacturing): 0.65 ng/mL
_Morphine (Free): 86 ng/mL (detected in the urine screen confirmation)


SPLC paid $300K to transport Unite the Right participants.
