purposely killing off the elderly, poor and sick

and to shift the burden to the (relatively) politically powerless

quid pro quo
https://www.politico.com/news/2025/0...orida-00415408A Florida state judge was lobbying for a seat on the federal bench. After he sided with the president in a defamation case, Donald Trump gave him one.
Ed Artau, now a nominee to be a district court judge in Florida, met with staff in the office of Florida Republican Sen. Rick Scott to angle for the nomination less than two weeks after Trump’s election last fall, according to a new Senate disclosure obtained by POLITICO. In the midst of his interviews, Artau was part of a panel of judges that ruled in Trump’s favor in the president’s case against members of the Pulitzer Prize Board.
About two weeks after the court published his opinion — which called for the overturning of a landmark Supreme Court case that made it harder for public officials to sue journalists — he interviewed with the White House Counsel’s Office. In May, Trump announced his nomination to the federal judiciary.

declining inflation data quality
https://www.apolloacademy.com/cpi-da...ity-declining/To calculate CPI inflation, BLS teams collect about 90,000 price quotes every month covering 200 different item categories, and there are several hundred field collectors active across 75 urban areas.
When data is not available, BLS staff typically develop estimates for approximately 10% of the cells in the CPI calculation. However, in May, the share of data in the CPI that is estimated increased to 30%, see chart below.
In other words, almost a third of the prices going into the CPI at the moment are guesses based on other data collections in the CPI.

ending Medicaid to build concentration camps and give rich people a tax cut
that's where we are
More money than the federal Bureau of Prisons, roughly on par with the military budget of France
Big ambition -- maybe Trump really does want to deport 11 million of our neighbors
If the GOP reconciliation bill passes, ICE gets through FY2029:
- $45 billion for detention, on top of the current annual budget of $3.4 billion
- $14.4 billion for transportation and removal, on top of the current annual budget of $750 million
- $8 billion for hiring/retention
- Billions more.
