My employer, Univ. Colorado will pay OpenAI $2M/year under the banner of “equity”. That’s 54 full scholarships / year. Plus, our IT will be able to read our chatGPT logs, and our chats can be requested under public records law. No thanks. Surveillance is not equity

Massie: "The DOJ wants to say they're done w/ this Epstein document production. The problem is they've taken down documents before we were able to go over & look at unredacted versions. They took down some of the most significant ones. They can't keep those down after they've already produced them."

ABC: Do you still have confidence in Pam Bondi as AG?

MASSIE: I don't think Pam Bondi has confidence in Pam Bondi. She wasn't confident enough to engage in anything but name calling in a hearing. So no, I don't. She was responsible for the document production.

President Trump wants to bring back a policy from his first term to block asylum seekers at the southern border — in direct violation of federal immigration law.

That's why we're urging SCOTUS to declare this policy illegal and protect the asylum process from executive overreach.

When I say that Black women are the economic backbone of (Black) communities, I'm not joking.

69% of Black mothers are the primary breadwinners of their household. Those households can include children, aging parents, extended family members, and more.

Dr. Valerie Wilson shows that COLLEGE EDUCATED BLACK WOMEN have face the greatest employment losses.

Significant declines in LFPR (share of BW looking for work or working) and EPOP (share of BW that are employed). This isn't good because BW are the economic backbone of (Black) communities.
I'm staring at this graph and I'm like okay they clown Black women for all the degrees we get but like numbers don't lie?

Smallest job losses among some college and graduate degree holders. May change this year but like this is nuts.

In Dr. Valerie Wilson, we trust.

TLDR: The job losses among Black women in 2025 were mostly driven by federal layoffs and buyouts. While there were gains in some private industries, Black women saw net job losses in 6 out of the 12 MAJOR private sector industries.
