I think it's not uncommon in the policy space to consider all postsecondary education "college," but I think you're right that the PR is misleading. They could have--should have--come out and said, "This is mostly for-profit vocational schools."

The Department of Education shared data today on IHEs where, 4 years after earning a credential, graduates earned less than peers with only a high school diploma.
What ED didn't shout out was just how many of those institutions are for-profits. So I got the data. jamessmurphy.com/2025/12/09/w...

The Kremlin likes to exercise rhetorical dominance over Trump and they say this in the safe knowledge that we won’t invade or that if we do it will be a disaster. Trump might think of Putin as a friend but that’s not how Russia sees the US. The US is to be humiliated, fragmented, and weakened.

"we were left an economic mess from the trump administration. employment in decline. factories closing. americans dead. my recovery act brought back the jobs. my inflation bill has factories -- clean factories -- employing millions. detroit is back -- and its green!" - shit biden could have said
I don’t recall hearing Biden or any Democrat with a microphone saying “we are climbing out of the recession and shortages that Trump left us” back in 2021. Their “strategy” was to not talk about Trump at all, insanely letting him push the narrative that his presidency ended in 2019.
