Trump’s aid cuts are killing far more Nigerian Christians than Islamic terrorists are. Independent monitors in Nigeria report 33 deaths this year in attacks against Christians (fewer than the 88 Muslims killed). But Trump cut off aid that helped save 270,000 lives a year in Nigeria. 270,000 > 33.

The YOY inflation rate in January 2025 was 3%.
YOY inflation in October 2025 was 3.2%
COVID-driven supply chain mess caused several months of higher inflation beginning in 2021. Perhaps also the twin stimulus packages - one Trump, one Biden. Outliers like bird flu contributed.
