Palantir Just Got Millions To Assign Cubicles The Trump-linked spy firm could be paid millions to help the Department of Agriculture with “employee seat assignments” and “space utilization.”

How this will affect #USDA employees already facing massive staff cutbacks and relocations is one part of this story. What do farmers think of Palantir and the company's potential access to their on-farm info? Thanks for reporting @lukewgoldstein.bsky.social www.levernews.com/palantir-jus...

USDA’s Section 515 Program for Rural Affordable Housing Faces Phase-Out The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Section 515 program, established in 1963, has been a cornerstone of affordable rental housing in rural America, helping to finance over 533,000 apartments and townhouses for low-income residents. By offering below-market loans to private and nonprofit developers, Section 515 ensured rents remained around 30% of tenants’ income, often as low as $325 per month compared to $800-$1,100 in typical rural markets. However, no new loans have been issued since 2011, and the program is now gradually phasing out as existing loans mature, with nearly all properties expected to exit the program by 2050. Research indicates that nonprofit ownership and larger management organizations significantly increase the likelihood of properties remaining affordable, while for-profit owners and small management operations are more likely to convert units to market-rate housing. Other subsidies, such as Section 8 vouchers and Low-Income Housing Tax Credits, also help preserve affordability. Despite USDA preservation initiatives and proposed legislation like the Rural Housing Service Reform Act, significant challenges remain, including an estimated $5.6 billion in repairs needed to maintain current affordable units. Without renewed federal intervention, rural communities could see a substantial decline in affordable housing as owners gain flexibility to raise rents or sell properties.
