What The Pitt Gets Right about Health Policy Foreshadowing the deadly consequences of Trump's Medicaid policies

"Feature not a bug!"
Millions of eligible people will get kicked off Medicaid in the effort to "prevent fraud".
This will cost the country far more in administrative costs it could save. The US government just thinks these people don't matter.

This gives the Meta access to LOTs of money with private capital getting returns over a 16 year life cycle on something that looks like an infrastructure bond. This is a huge bet on the future income stream from AI.

Meta + Blue Owl’s $27B Bet: Is This the US Blueprint for Financing AI Data Centers? Inside the largest private credit deal in history and how it could redefine how America funds the AI buildout.

Hyperion will be built/owned by a JV(Meta 20%, Blue Owl 80%) which issues $27B debt /$2.5B equity. Meta takes a long term lease, capital cost is off Meta's balance sheet.
This "...creates an entirely new asset class: AI infrastructure-backed securities."

Google DCs hit 1GW of flexible demand response capacity.
