New York twin brothers go viral on TikTok for hilarious videos on inflation: 'You got to work hard'
Staten Island personalities and twin brothers Jojo and Nicky Scarlotta celebrated their 25th birthdays Saturday, but that hasn’t stopped their social media takeover.
Jojo’s videos, each with his distinctly New York Italian-American takes, have earned him nearly a half-million followers on both TikTok and Instagram.
His most recent videos have gone viral sharing concerns surrounding inflation for everything from haircuts to regular bill payments with plenty of humor.

Jojo Scarlotta shared some of his views on inflation in an interview with Fox News Digital, saying, “What I did notice under the Biden administration was that gas, the price of housing, almost everything that you could name under the sun’s gone up — the car insurance, you know what I mean?”
“And it’s very, very hard because I don’t know what they expect, you know, the working class, the middle class to do. You know [the] people who have just one income. How do they expect people to survive?”

Family is very important to Jojo, who inspire many of the videos on his page. His brother, Nicky, and his father, Joe Sr., make regular appearances in his videos.
“My father, my mother, they’ve been working my entire life, too. My father can work two or three jobs my entire life. He instilled that in us at a very early age. So we all know what it is to work very hard for a dollar.
“And to be honest, just a lot of conversations at the dinner table of my mom and my father talking about prices, my father and his brother, my Uncle Tony, talking about prices, how pastrami went from $12.99 to $13.99 a pound, how sliced honey turkey went from $8.99 to $10.99.”
Jojo’s videos are striking a chord with everyday Americans, too: His most recent video on skyrocketing car insurance prices garnered more than 1.1M views on TikTok.
Scarlotta has one criterion for whichever candidate he supports for president this year: “As long as whoever’s in office makes it a little bit more fricking affordable.”

The most timely news? Jojo Scarlotta has given his resounding approval of the “mob wife” trend that has taken social media by storm, “I love it. I think it’s fantastic.”

“In my opinion, it pays a little homage to more or less like ‘The Sopranos,’ that type of, that type of vibe. And I’m here for it. I am here for it.”

Anne Theresa Tarling
SANFORD – Anne Theresa Tarling, 74, of Sanford, Maine passed away peacefully at home on April 23, 2026, surrounded by her loving family. While our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing she lived a full and beautiful life rooted in love, creativity, and devotion to the people who meant the most to her.
Anne was born on April 3, 1952, in Portland, Maine, to the late Joseph and Blanche Morin. She grew up in Portland and graduated from Deering High School in 1970.
In 1980, Anne married the love of her life, Ernest Tarling. Together they built a life centered on family, laughter, and partnership. Their 45 years of marriage were filled with shared memories and a deep commitment to one another and to their family.
Anne was a talented self-taught artist who found great joy in painting and sharing her creativity with others. She proudly exhibited her work at local art shows and specialty shops, and her paintings found their way into homes near and far. Her art brought beauty and comfort to many and will continue to remind us of her for years to come.
She also enjoyed gardening, sailing the coast of Maine, and hosting family gatherings. She was known for her famous chocolate chip cookies and for never missing a birthday or special occasion.
Being a devoted Nana brought her great joy, and she cherished time spent with her family above all else.
In addition to her parents, Anne was preceded in death by her brother, Stephen Morin; her sister, Julie Pochebit, her brother-in-law, Daniel Desmond; nieces Elizabeth McKee and Alison Pochebit.
She is survived by her brother, Paul (Sue Ellen) Morin, two sisters, Cheryl Desmond and Celine (Stephen) Pochebit; her husband of 45 years, Ernest Tarling; her son, Greg (Karen) Flagg, her four daughters, Jennifer Copper, Rebecca (Frank) Zavadil, Stefenie (Matthew) Burdick, and Kendra (Justin) Dowling; her 11 grandchildren, Cody, Matthew, Jackson, Gracey, Lucas, Quinn, Beau, Shea, Ellie, Will, and Stevie; a large extended family, including many loving nieces and nephews; and her longtime best friend, Sandy Hobbs.
A funeral service will be held Saturday, May 2, at 11 a.m. at St. Martha Church, 30 Portland Road, Kennebunk, Maine, followed by a celebration of life at 12:30 p.m. at For the Love of Food + Drink at Saltwater Farm, 411 Post Road, Wells, Maine.

A mother charged with two counts of murder after the deaths of her two young children agreed Monday in Rutland County Superior Court to be transferred to Massachusetts, where she will face the charges.
The Massachusetts State Police have charged Janette MacAusland, 49, with murdering her two children, ages 6 and 7, after they were found dead at their home in Wellesley, Massachusetts, Friday.
According to a Bennington police press release, MacAusland arrived at a relative’s home in Vermont on Friday night with a neck injury, bleeding and appearing “highly distraught.”
The relatives called the Bennington police, who then prompted police in Wellesley, Massachusetts, to check on MacAusland’s children. Both were found dead. No details have been released about the cause or manner of death.
The Bennington Police Department arrested MacAusland and took her to Marble Valley Correctional Facility in Rutland, where she has been held without bail.
Appearing virtually in court Monday, MacAusland agreed to waive her right to a hearing and be immediately transferred back to Norfolk County in Massachusetts.
“She’s decided that the best thing is to get back to Massachusetts as soon as possible and address these charges,” Jeff Rubin, her attorney, said at the hearing.
The children’s deaths follow a custody battle between MacAusland and her former husband, according to the Associated Press. MacAusland’s husband filed for divorce in October after nine years of marriage and sought custody of the children and family home.
