The Trump administration stopped publishing diversity data of federal workers last year. So we analyzed the Current Population Survey from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and found Black employment plunged. With @hannah_natanson wapo.st/4ziauiN

I asked baseball players at Deal Middle School what they would say to Amaury Monsalve, their coach who was detained by ICE last week. They said, “We miss him, this is his home.” “Everyone wants you back.” “We’ll do anything to help.” w/@lbowman_98 washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/…

I had AI chatbots make voter guides for an address in every county. Half of the time, they did not name a congressional district. When they did, they were wrong 22 percent of the time.
