A 17-year-old American cyclist was killed Saturday when a car hit him as he was training. Magnus White, who was deemed a "rising star" in the sport, was cycling on the shoulder of a highway in his hometown of Boulder, Colorado, Sunday when he was struck by a car, USA Cycling said. The national team athlete had been in final training preparations for his first Junior Men's Mountain Bike Cross-Country World Championships, which is set for Aug. 10 in Glasgow, Scotland. White was an avid cyclist from an early age and had a knack for off-road cycling. He specialized in cyclocross, which is a cross between road cycling, mountain biking and steeplechase, and won the junior national championship in the sport in 2021. He went on to complete a season with the USA Cycling National Team and competed in two cyclocross world championships: one in 2022 in Fayeteville, Arkansas, and another in January in Hoogerheide, Netherlands. "We offer our heartfelt condolences to the White family, his teammates, friends, and the Boulder community during this incredibly difficult time. We ride for Magnus," USA Cycling said in a statement. White is survived by his parents and a brother. Friends of the family have organized a GoFundMe in his memory.

COLORADO SPRINGS — A lot of fact-finding is happening this week aimed at helping determine the future of a potential new affordable housing project on the west side of Colorado Springs. The project is called the Launchpad. The 50-unit complex is intended to offer homeless young adults a more stable type of housing beyond a homeless shelter. “Helping young people change their trajectory, from living on the street, from possibly becoming a chronically homeless adult,” said Homeless Youth Advocate and The Place, CEO, Shawna Kemppainen. Kemppainen is part of a collaboration working to build The Launchpad supportive housing facility North of Uintah Street along 19th Street in Colorado Springs. The city council delayed a vote to approve the project after a group of neighbors appealed. “A lot of us, dozens of neighbors feel that it was pushed ahead too quickly, that this was treated like a non-controversial item when it was clearly controversial from the start,” said Neighbor, Scott Hiller. Neighbors say they have questions about the stability of the steep hillside and what the build might do to homes above the property. They also question the size of the structure. Hiller said, “Our master plan that governs this area recommends that this spot only have buildings 35 feet tall, and 16 dwelling units per acre. The building proposed here is much taller and much more dense than that.” Developers counter that the plan is for a building smaller than what current zoning allows. “We have delivered a code compliant, 100% code compliant building with our development submission to the planning department,” said Cohen-Esrey Development Director, Lisa Sorensen. On August 8th Colorado Springs City Council will hear from both sides and then determine the future of this project. ____ Watch KOAA News5 on your time, anytime with our free streaming app available for your Roku, FireTV, AppleTV and Android TV.

Yellow Corp., one of the largest freight companies in the U.S., said it was closing operations and filing for bankruptcy on Monday.

One of the largest trucking companies in the country shut down over the weekend, leaving tens of thousands of people without jobs at the start of the work week. The Teamsters Union said Monday that Yellow Corp. informed them the 99-year-old company was shuttering operations and filing for bankruptcy, despite receiving a $700 million pandemic loan just three years ago. Scripps News reached out to Yellow to confirm but did not hear back. No bankruptcy filings have gone live yet. Yellow employs 30,000 people nationwide including 22,000 union workers. But one worker in Nashville says he arrived at work without hearing anything about the status of his job. "They haven't told us they're out of business yet, they haven't told us what they're doing, filing bankruptcy or whatever," said Danny Smallridge. "I'm in pretty good shape myself and I know I'll be taken care of but a lot of my union brothers and sisters — they're not in the same boat as I am and that's heartbreaking. Shame on the company." Another worker went viral over the weekend after a video showed his emotional reaction to learning he'd leave Yellow with no pension despite spending 30 years on the job. In a statement, Teamsters president Sean O'Brien called the news "unfortunate but not surprising." He added Yellow "has historically proven that it could not manage itself despite billions of dollars in worker concessions and hundreds of millions in bailout funding from the federal government. This is a sad day for workers and the American freight industry,” SEE MORE: Lumber prices could surge again due to too few lumber workers Yellow is the nation's third largest carrier of small freight, earning $5 billion in revenue a year, according to its website, serving major customers like Walmart and Home Depot. But after a series of failed cost-cutting measures to stay afloat, Yellow saw customers leave in droves. According to the Associated Press, the company is now $1.5 billion in debt with $729.2 million owed to the federal government. This, despite the government handing Yellow a $700 million pandemic loan just three years ago. Mike Regan, the co-founder of TranzAct technologies, which helps companies manage their supply chains, says Yellow used most of that money to round out pension plans and extend the life of its equipment. But in June, a congressional investigation found the Treasury and Defense departments "made missteps" in giving Yellow the loan, with auditors calling the handout "reactive at best" and saying it "may not be the best course of action to protect taxpayer funds." Regan says Yellow's problems arose decades ago after the company acquired rival companies and put them under one roof. "When they bought Roadway, it was like having the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears come together to form a football team. You had basically people that competed against each other, were enemies, then you brought them together and said 'we're going to play nice,'" he said. "If you don't have your culture synchronized, I don't care what your strategy is, it's not going to work because you have disparate parties." SEE MORE: Wage and salary increases in the US slowed down He added that problems worsened when Yellow tried to reduce its debt and eliminate financial redundancies by shutttering 24 of its 300 truck terminals. Regan says that considering some of the locations were as valuable as $80 million, it could've helped the company with some of its money troubles. But Teamsters, which was angered by the course of action, said the move would lead to unnecessary job cuts. Regan says Yellow's latest setback came from the threat of a union strike over health care benefits when the company missed a $50 million welfare and pension fund payment. Teamsters said they'd strike if Yellow didn't make the payment. "That basically was the death knell for Yellow because if you're a shipper, one of the things that you don't want to do is have freight trapped in a system when the carrier's not operating," said Regan. The shutdown could mean shipping delays for consumer because many shippers relied solely on Yellow's vast terminal network to move is products. "In the LTL (Less-than-truckload) industry, your capacity is driven by your terminal network, the amount of doors that you have available to clear freight," said Regan. "The reason this is a big deal for shippers is because some shippers had Yellow [as their] one carrier. Well, they may take three or four carriers now to replace that Yellow volume because of the network." Regan says more carriers sharing doors could mean greater delays, leading to price increases to make up for the gap. Trending stories at Scrippsnews.com

The Salvation Army is hosting a 'Back to School Shopping Spree' event Saturday August 5th. It's more than half way to its donation goal, but still needs help. Click here to help reach the goal. The goal is $20,000 to support 200 kids. This is a record number of kids, according to the Salvation Army. It's been doing this spree for decades. "We rely on the community to help sponsor every one of these kids because we simply can't afford it ourselves," said the community relations director Jeane Turner. It takes $100 to fully sponsor a child. Sponsoring a child gives them several outfits to choose from, including shoes. "Just giving these kids confidence, seeing their excitement on their faces when they get to pick out a new pair of shoes, many of these kids have never done that before," said Turner. The Salvation Army said 100% of donations, any amount, goes directly toward helping a child in need. "Many of them are in our programs either at our shelter or here at or after school, summer day camp," said Turner. With a partnership with JCPenney, $100 goes a long way, said Turner. "30% off, tax-free shopping plus they bring in tons of other sale items," said Turner. If the donation goal is not met, Turner said they would have to pull funding from other programs. Gavin Light is supporting 50 kids this year. "I was able to donate more this year than I have in the past but I just think there's a lot of need out there," said Light. Light said he donates every year to invest in the next generation and make a difference. "I don't spend money on fancy cars or watches, those just aren't my value, it's rewarding to me to give back," said Light. ____ Watch KOAA News5 on your time, anytime with our free streaming app available for your Roku, FireTV, AppleTV and Android TV.

DENVER (KDVR) — Country artist Luke Bryan invited a Denver-area girl backstage after he heard her story. Mary Stegmueller, 7, has been battling terminal brain cancer since she was 4 years old. She’s a serious Luke Bryan fan, and she really wanted to see his show in Denver on Saturday. But she is immunocompromised and cannot stand for long durations, so her family thought the concert was off the table until an anonymous donor gave them a private suite for the show. Her family said they’re unbelievably grateful to the anonymous donor. Mary got a quick hug from the country star back in 2021 after a concert, but this time, she was hoping for another chance to have a conversation with him.

SAN ANGELO, Texas — Monday morning officially marked the start of football season in the Concho Valley with the kick-off of two-a-day football practice. The Wall Hawks were out on the turf bright; and early on Monday, taking advantage of the cooler weather before the heat settled in. After a steller 2022-2023 season where the Hawks found themselves going undefeated in district play with only two losses on the season, claiming that District 2-3A title, only to fall in the 3A Regional Finals, it’s easy to say that the sky is the limit for these Hawks. “We want to, one, get better each practice. As we go, you know, we know there’s going to be days when you leave the field, and you feel like you’re beating your head against the wall, but it’s one of those things where we are going to see these kids get better every practice,” said Hawks head coach, Houston Guy. “They’re a very smart group of kids, they’re a very mature group, they’re seasoned, they’ve played a lot of ball games, so our expectations every day is to just get better.” The Hawks did graduate a few starting seniors with the Class of ’23 but for the most part, they are coming back with the experience and skill to give them a good chance at being the front runners yet again in District 2-3A. “The energy is great, we are all together. We’re a good team, we’ve been together a while, so I’m feeling confident and really ready and I’m waiting for that defense to really come together,” said Hawks senior defensive end, Logan Thomas. “Well it’s good seeing everyone back together after summer, a lot of us have been away from each other doing different things and the locker room this morning was real exciting, everyone’s real excited to get back out here and play some football,” said Hawks junior quarterback, Gunnar Dillard. The Hawks kick off their regular season action at home against Eastland on August 25th at 7:00 p.m.

A trio of top House Republicans are demanding that the Department of Justice (DOJ) hand over information pertaining to Hunter Biden’s plea deal, which has been on hold for days after a judge raised concerns about the agreement. GOP lawmakers have railed for weeks against the plea agreement, calling it a “sweetheart deal” and arguing Hunter Biden was given preferential treatment because he is the son of President Biden. The three Republicans escalated those attacks in a Monday letter, asking Attorney General Merrick Garland to answer a list of questions and provide documents and communications about Hunter Biden’s “unusual” plea agreement — the first request from Congress parsing the particulars of the deal. “The Department’s unusual plea and pretrial diversion agreements with Mr. Biden raise serious concerns — especially when combined with recent whistleblower allegations—that the Department has provided preferential treatment toward Mr. Biden in the course of its investigation and proposed resolution of his alleged criminal conduct,” the letter reads. Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), Oversight and Accountability Committee Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) and Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith (R-Mo.) all signed the letter. The House GOP for months has been investigating the Biden family’s foreign business dealings and its associates. Lawmakers have previously made requests regarding the investigation into Hunter Biden led by U.S. attorney for Delaware David Weiss. The Hill reached out to the DOJ for comment. Hunter Biden’s plea deal was put on hold last week after the judge overseeing the case questioned the parameters of the agreement. As part of the deal, Biden was expected to plead guilty to two misdemeanor counts of willful failure to pay income taxes. He also reached a diversion agreement relating to an unlawful possession of a weapon charge. U.S. District Judge Maryellen Noreika, a Trump appointee, raised concerns about the setup of the two-part deal and the scope of Biden’s immunity, and she ultimately gave both parties more time to explain why the deal — which she has to greenlight — should be accepted. The three House Republicans pointed to some of Noreika’s concerns in their letter, including provisions in the pretrial diversion agreement that would shield Hunter Biden from future criminal charges on the gun charge or other federal charges within the scope of the agreement. “Taken individually, each of the provisions discussed above raises serious concerns about how the Department has handled this matter. But when considered together, the provisions appear to be even more troubling,” the GOP chairmen wrote. They claimed the Justice Department “shifted a broad immunity provision, which benefits Mr. Biden, from the plea agreement to the pretrial diversion agreement apparently to prevent the District Court from being able to scrutinize and reject that immunity provision.” “And then, the Department has benefitted Mr. Biden by giving up its unilateral ability to bring charges against him if it concludes that he has breached the pretrial diversion agreement. Instead, it has placed upon itself the burden of getting the District Court’s permission to bring charges even though the District Court normally has no role in policing a pretrial diversion agreement in that manner,” they continued. “So, the District Court is apparently removed from the equation when it helps Mr. Biden and inserted into the equation when it helps Mr. Biden.” The trio of Republicans also voiced concerns about the DOJ saying the investigations into Hunter Biden are “ongoing,” arguing it is an effort to shield the DOJ from congressional oversight. Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) raised a similar claim last month. “How can Hunter Biden plead guilty, no jail time, and the DOJ say there’s still an investigation, try to withhold information to the House? That’s unacceptable and will not stand,” McCarthy told reporters at the time. The committee chairmen are asking Garland to provide information on other pretrial diversion agreements similar to Biden’s, in addition to “a generalized description of the nature of the Department’s ongoing investigation(s) concerning Hunter Biden.” The letter from Jordan, Comer and Smith came the same day lawmakers heard testimony from former Hunter Biden business associate Devon Archer behind closed doors. Rep. Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.) told reporters Archer said Hunter Biden included President Biden on a number of phone calls that presumably included business associates, a detail that Republicans will likely use in their attempts to link the president to his son’s business dealings. Goldman said the testimony did not prove President Biden was involved in his son’s business dealings. Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), however, said he thought Archer’s testimony “implicate[s] the president.” That testimony came nearly two weeks after two IRS whistleblowers testified publicly, claiming that authorities slow-walked the case into Hunter Biden. The two whistleblowers previously spoke to the Ways and Means Committee behind closed doors, and those transcripts were released shortly after Hunter Biden’s plea agreement was announced.

Social media has gone wild as people claim the government confirmed aliens exist. But the truth isn't that simple, even as Congress vows to investigate.

(NewsNation) — As in decades past, the question of whether aliens exist continues to captivate Americans. Following Wednesday’s widely-watched Congressional hearing on UAPs and UFOs, people flocked to social media — many proclaiming the government confirmed aliens exist. But that’s not actually what happened at the hearing. While witnesses and lawmakers discussed the issue of UFOs, the government has not issued any official confirmation of alien life and what was said at the hearing, by witnesses and even a lawmaker, remains unverified. As lawmakers continue to probe the issue, join NewsNation’s Brian Entin at 9 p.m. ET Sunday night for a two-hour special report on the hearing, including analysis from UFO experts. Find out how to tune in to NewsNation on your local channel lineup. Here’s what we do (and don’t) know after the hearing: Whistleblower David Grusch largely recounted second-hand testimony and provided no evidence to support his claims. Grusch is a former member of the UAP Task Force. Former Navy Commander and pilot David Fravor recounted a first-hand experience with the so-called Tic Tac UFO but said he was never briefed on the object or its potential origins. Former Navy pilot Ryan Graves, who founded the Americans for Safe Aerospace, also recounted an encounter he had with an object he described as a black sphere floating inside a clear cube. Graves indicated such encounters were extremely common among pilots. There was no evidence presented to support this claim. While lawmakers seemed largely accepting of the witness testimony, only Rep. Matt Gaetz, R.-Fla., said he had seen any evidence of alien life firsthand. Grusch was unable to answer a number of inquiries regarding specific evidence or proof in an open setting, though he indicated he would be willing to say more in a secure, classified briefing. All three witnesses agreed these unidentified objects constituted a potential national security threat. Official government bodies, including the White House, Pentagon, and NASA have all stated they have no reason to believe unexplained objects are extraterrestrial in nature. National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby said after the hearing there are “no hard and fast” answers to the question but that the administration is taking it seriously. This wasn’t the first time the U.S. government undertook investigations to address the question of UFOs, nor is it the first time the official response was that there was nothing “alien” going on. However, at the heart of Grusch’s whistleblower complaint is his claim that the government, specifically the Department of Defense, is operating programs to retrieve material from crashes that are extraterrestrial in nature and are keeping those programs secret from the public while also operating without appropriate Congressional oversight. Grusch spoke exclusively to NewsNation regarding his experiences, which he said include the U.S. government recovering the “non-human” pilots of downed craft. In light of his claims, lawmakers on the House Oversight Committee have vowed to continue to hold more hearings, including classified briefings where Grusch could speak more freely. Members have also vowed to seek the power to subpoena documents and images that Grusch says back up his claims. Lawmakers have also called for a centralized reporting system for both military and civilian reports of UFOs, to better analyze and understand the possible threat. There is also the possibility of the creation of a new committee to specifically investigate UAPs/UFOs. It’s not entirely clear how Congress could compel the DoD or military to release information on any secret programs, should they exist, though, in the past, lawmakers have attempted to work UFO reporting into funding requirements for the Pentagon.

Former President Trump’s dominance of the GOP field was underscored by a new poll released Monday. The New York Times/Siena College poll showed Trump leading his closest rival for the nomination, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, by a massive 37 points. In the poll, Trump drew 54 percent support and DeSantis 17 percent. No other candidate registered higher than 3 percent support. The poll was far from an outlier. Trump has maintained a lead of roughly 30 points over DeSantis in national polling averages for some time. There is no convincing evidence that any other contender is acquiring real momentum. Given that Trump is showing such strength even while he has been indicted in two criminal cases, the question arises as to whether he is all but inevitable as the GOP nominee. Here are the main arguments for and against that idea. Trump is the inevitable nominee because… His support looks rock-solid Trump’s biggest political asset has been clear for years. His base voters are avid in their support and near-impervious to any negative information about him. It’s more than seven years since then-candidate Trump told a crowd in Iowa, “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters, OK?” Today, he stands accused of obstruction of justice and a series of other serious offenses in the Mar-a-Lago documents case. He is also charged with falsifying business records in a separate New York case. Among Republicans, it hasn’t mattered. In the New York Times poll, 71 percent of potential Republican primary voters said the GOP needed “to stand behind Trump” amid his charges, whereas only 22 percent argued there was no obligation to do so. The exact same share — 71 percent — asserted that Trump was innocent of any “serious federal crimes.” A general election would be a very different matter. But, within the GOP, there is every reason to think Trump has a lock on enough voters to carry him to the nomination. His main rival is doing very poorly DeSantis’s weakness has been a bigger surprise than Trump’s strength so far. The Florida governor launched his campaign May 24 with a Twitter Spaces event marred by technical glitches. It was a sign of things to come. DeSantis’s poll ratings have eroded over the two months-plus of his campaign to date. The national polling average maintained by data site FiveThirtyEight showed him drawing roughly 21 percent support on the day of his launch. He is now at roughly 16 percent. The polling slide has been accompanied by broader campaign troubles. A recent series of staffing cuts has reduced his team by about one-third. DeSantis’s backers publicly evince confidence that they are building a campaign for the long haul and that it will all come right in the end. The governor laid out an economic agenda in a New Hampshire speech Monday. But as of today, DeSantis has seriously underperformed. That’s very good news for Trump. GOP voters don’t buy the argument that Trump is unelectable Trump-skeptical GOP insiders coalesce around one central argument — that the former president would be a weak general election candidate, likely losing a winnable election. As evidence they cite the 2020 election, when Trump lost the popular vote by more than 7 million votes to President Biden; his false claims of election fraud and the way they fueled the Capitol Riot of Jan. 6, 2021; his many legal challenges; and his low poll ratings among the general public. In an Economist/YouGov poll released last week, Trump was seen favorably by 40 percent of the general public, and unfavorably by 57 percent. Self-professed independent voters broke against him on that question by almost 2-to-1. But the GOP primary electorate, by and large, just doesn’t buy it. They believe Trump can defy the polls and pundits again, just as he did when defeating Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in 2016. The New York Times poll asked Republican voters whether Trump or DeSantis was better “able to beat Joe Biden.” Fifty-eight percent went for Trump compared to 28 percent for DeSantis. Unless those figures change drastically, it’s tough to see how Trump loses the nomination battle. Trump is not the inevitable nominee because…. The campaign has barely begun Today’s intense media coverage of every step of every campaign tends to lead to sweeping predications. Many of those forecasts might seem premature. The Iowa caucuses are more than five months away — an eternity in politics. The Republican National Convention, at which the nominee will be formally crowned, is almost a year away. For the moment, Trump likely accrues some benefit from his near-universal name recognition. In another Economist/YouGov poll earlier this month, the proportion of Republicans who said they didn’t know enough to express an opinion of a particular candidate stood at 9 percent for DeSantis, 21 percent for former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie and 27 percent for former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley. That gives those candidates room to grow, at least in theory, in a way that isn’t true for Trump. Trump’s rivals could also hold out hope of game-changing moments during debate season, which is soon to begin. The first clash is set for Aug. 23 in Milwaukee. Early polls are misleading Trump’s rivals emphasize that predictions based on early polls in previous years were wrong. That’s true — sort of. But it’s not quite so hard-and-fast a rule as the Trump skeptics claim. In fact, in two of the last three contested Republican presidential primaries, the eventual winner was already leading the RealClearPolitics average at this point. Trump had just burst into the lead in 2016, never to surrender it; and in 2012, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney had already established a lead, which he would lose and regain. Romney is now a senator representing Utah. The sole exception came in 2008, when Sen. John McCain (Ariz.) was in third place and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was leading the field. McCain went on to claim the nomination and Giuliani’s campaign sputtered into oblivion. It’s not just a matter of polls. Campaigns can sometimes shift on a dime, as happened for the Democrats in 2020. Then, Biden looked like a busted flush after trailing in fourth in Iowa and fifth in New Hampshire. A win in South Carolina — and a collective quiver of fear among moderate Democrats over the possibility of nominating Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) — delivered the nomination to Biden. Trump’s legal problems are getting worse Even if Trump’s support has remained solid so far, it may not be destined to remain so. What happens when the GOP has to focus fully on whether to nominate a candidate who could be convicted of serious offenses by the time Election Day rolls around? Trump’s trial in the Mar-a-Lago matter has been set for May 20 next year. Then there is the likelihood of Trump’s other troubles deepening. An indictment is widely expected soon over Jan. 6. Trump himself wrote on Truth Social on Monday that he expected an indictment “any day now.” In Georgia, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) is wrapping up her probe into attempts by Trump and his allies to overturn the 2020 election results in that state. Decisions on charges are expected in the next few weeks. Every one of those cases, regardless of the verdicts, will put unflattering details of Trump’s behavior back in the spotlight — and could, perhaps, give some Republican voters second thoughts about nominating him.

SAN ANGELO, Texas — The Grape Creek Eagles seek to get back on track after failing to win a game in 2022. Tanner Thiel is entering his seventh year as Head Coach for the Eagles. Thiel continues to stay positive and vows to get things turned around this 2023 season. “After coming off a 0 and 10 season, we talked about this being a little bit of a revenge tour this year. We have a lot to prove. We’re a lot better team than what we showed last year.” The Grape Creek Eagle’s first game is only four weeks away against Stanton and the excitement to get back on the winning side of things are evident after their first two-a-days practice of the season. “I’m pretty excited. We’ve been putting in the work this summer and I know we had a bad season last year, but we’ve been coming on strong, so I’m pretty excited,” said senior running back, Colton Rumsey. After having one of the most successful seasons in program history in 2021, the Grape Creek Eagles took a step back in 2022. Adversity hit them hard, but they are looking to use that as fuel this time around. “I feel this team is young, but they can carry on. They can carry a burden. They really can like, no matter what happens, we got to keep our heads up. That’s all it is,” said senior running back Gavin Guerra. The Eagles season gets underway August 25th at home against Stanton High School.

Democrats and Republicans are offering clashing interpretations of the significance of former Hunter Biden business associate Devon Archer’s closed-door testimony, which lawmakers said included assertions that Hunter Biden was selling the “illusion of access” to his father and that Hunter Biden sometimes put President Biden on speakerphone to talk to his business associates. The revelations are fueling Republican attempts to link the president to his son’s business dealings. Republicans, including Speaker Kevin McCarthy (Calif.) and House Oversight Committee Chairman Rep. James Comer (Ky.), say the testimony shows that President Biden “lied” when he made campaign trail statements that he had never talked to his son about his foreign business dealings. But Democrats say Archer’s testimony to the House Oversight Committee on Monday actually shows the president was not involved in Hunter Biden’s foreign business affairs. Rep. Dan Goldman (D-N.Y.), who attended the hours-long transcribed interview, said Archer testified that because Hunter Biden was under pressure from Ukrainian energy company Burisma, “he had to give the illusion — and he used that term, the illusion — of access to his father, and he tried to get credit for things that he — that Mr. Archer testified Hunter had nothing to do with, such as when Vice President Biden went to Ukraine on his own.” Lawmakers clash over whether testimony implicates president Archer was on the board of Burisma with Hunter Biden. Republicans have said then-Vice President Biden’s call to remove Ukrainian prosecutor Viktor Shokin, whose office was investigating Burisma, was directly related to his son’s involvement with, and sizable payments from, the company. But the investigation in Burisma had been opened before Shokin took the position, and Shokin was widely criticized for failure to prosecute corruption, with his ouster supported by numerous U.S. officials. Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the ranking member on the House Oversight Committee, said in a statement that Archer testified that “President Biden was not involved in his son’s business affairs, and that President Biden was never asked to, nor did he, take any official actions in relation to those business matters.” White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said last week that the president “was never in business with his son.” On the other end of the partisan spectrum, Rep. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), who also attended the transcribed interview, said he thought Archer’s testimony “implicate[s] the president.” Reading from his notes of the transcribed interview, Biggs said Archer testified that “Burisma would have gone out of business sooner if the Biden brand had not been invoked. People would be intimidated to legally mess with Burisma because of the Biden family brand.” According to Biggs, Archer said the Biden “brand” referred to President Biden. But Goldman later said that Archer clarified the “brand” was based on a “D.C. brand based on his own experience in lobbying” and “in conjunction with the fact that his last name was Biden.” Burisma bribery allegations Both Biggs and Goldman said that Archer had no knowledge of an alleged $5 million payment to Biden from Burisma, an allegation relayed by a confidential FBI source in a form released by Republicans earlier in June. Goldman argued that Archer’s testimony undercut the premise of the Biden-Burisma bribery allegations. “Even though it was perceived by Burisma that they had the Prosecutor General Shokin ‘under control,’ quote unquote, that Joe Biden advocated for his firing — which of course, was not coveted or desired by Burisma, and would potentially be bad for Burisma,” Goldman said. Raskin said that Republicans appeared to be “chasing” the bribery allegations, and pointed to a recent letter to Comer from Lev Parnas, who was involved in an effort to dig up dirt about the Bidens in Ukraine ahead of the 2020 election, urging Comer to abandon efforts to chase the “conspiracy theories.” Comer, on the other hand, took issue with Hunter Biden’s work with Burisma. “When Burisma’s owner was facing pressure from the Ukrainian prosecutor investigating the company for corruption, Archer testified that Burisma executives asked Hunter to ‘call D.C.’ after a Burisma board meeting in Dubai,” he said in a statement, which a press release said raised concerns that Hunter Biden was in violation of the Foreign Agents Registration Act. Phone calls with the president Archer’s testimony did appear to partially back up Comer’s statement to the New York Post last week that he expected Archer to discuss the times he witnessed Hunter Biden’s putting then-Vice President Biden on speakerphone with foreign business partners. Democrats downplayed that concern. “The witness indicated that Hunter spoke to his father every day, and approximately 20 times over the course of a 10-year relationship. Hunter may have put his father on the phone with any number of different people, and they never once spoke about any business dealings,” Goldman said. “As he described it, it was all casual conversation, niceties, the weather, ‘What’s going on?’” Goldman said, adding that “there wasn’t a single conversation about any of the business dealings that Hunter had.” Democrats also stressed that there were especially frequent conversations between Hunter Biden and his father after his brother, Beau Biden, died from brain cancer in 2015. Biggs pushed back on Goldman’s characterization. “He probably forgot to tell you that Devon Archer himself said that was an implication of who the ‘big guy’ is,” Biggs said, referring to communications drawn from a laptop hard drive that purportedly belonged to Hunter Biden. The House Oversight GOP also said in a tweet that President Biden attended a 2014 dinner with Hunter Biden and some of his foreign business associates at Cafe Milano in Washington, D.C. White House slams GOP after ‘much-hyped witness’ testimony Ian Sams, White House spokesperson for oversight and investigations, also argued that the Archer interview poked holes in the GOP attempts to directly link President Biden to his family’s foreign business dealings. “It appears that the House Republicans’ own much-hyped witness today testified that he never heard of President Biden discussing business with his son or his son’s associates, or doing anything wrong,” Sams said. “House Republicans keep promising bombshell evidence to support their ridiculous attacks against the President, but time after time, they keep failing to produce any. In fact, even their own witnesses appear to be debunking their allegations.” Raskin said that the Biden family investigation is a “desperate effort to distract everyone from former President Donald Trump’s mounting criminal indictments and deepening legal morass.” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio), who was also in the interview, told reporters that Archer had revealed new information, but declined to elaborate further. Abbe Lowell, counsel for Hunter Biden, said in a statement that House Republicans “keep swinging and keep striking out in their obsessive pursuit of the President through his son, Hunter.” “Mr. Archer confirmed one more time that Hunter Biden did not involve his father in, nor did his father assist him in, his business. It’s well known that Hunter and his father speak daily, and what Mr. Archer confirmed today was that when those calls occurred during Hunter’s business meetings, if there was any interaction between his father and his business associates, it was simply to exchange small talk,” Lowell said. “Like the relatives of Donald Trump, Senators Ron Johnson and Ted Cruz, Rep. Lauren Boebert, and many others, family members of elected representatives meet people and may get opportunities because of those connections,” he continued. “Congress would be busy investigating many of their own if that’s their idea of an offense.” Archer did not answer shouted questions when entering or leaving the transcribed interview, and his attorney declined to take a side in the debate over his testimony. “We are aware that all sides are claiming victory following Mr. Archer’s voluntary interview today. But all Devon Archer did was exactly what we said he would: show up and answer the questions put to him honestly and completely. Mr. Archer shared the truth with the Committee, and we will leave to them and others to decide what to do with it,” said Matthew L. Schwartz, a managing partner of Boies Schiller Flexner LLP.

Asian American activists gathered Monday at the site of a razed building on Cass Avenue in Detroit.

Asian American advocates and families with ties to Detroit's historic Chinatown gathered Monday morning at the site of a 140-year-old building that was demolished over the weekend, mourning the loss of what was once a center for their community. They called upon the Ilitch family to work with them to develop the site. Over the past week, activists made a last-ditch effort to stop the demolition, hoping that the dilapidated property at 3143 Cass Ave. owned by Olympia Development of Michigan, the Ilitch family organization's real estate firm, would be spared, at least temporarily so they could have a discussion about its future. Detroit City Council voted unanimously last week to halt the demolition, but was overruled by city lawyers who said they had no jurisdiction. At a news conference on Cass Avenue near Peterboro Street, the advocates spoke over the loud buzz of an excavator that was still picking through the wreckage of the demolition that started Saturday. Water was being sprayed over the work site, sometimes sprinkling the speakers. "It's a shame," said Roland Hwang, a longtime civil rights advocate and Northville attorney who worked on the case of Vincent Chin 40 years ago inside the building. "I grieve for the fact that we weren't successful, but I think that it is something that we can look at ... is there a win-win situation that can arise from the ashes?" As Hwang spoke, some held up old photos of family members who worked in Chinatown and of Chin protests in the 1980s, when Asian Americans demonstrated against the killing of Chin in Highland Park in 1982. Hwang helped form American Citizens for Justice, which he now leads, at the razed building in 1983. "I have fond memories of that building," Hwang said. "There are so many memories that are rekindled by what's happened here. ... I think that we as a community should call on Chris Ilitch and the Ilitch properties and Olympia Development to actually have a conversation with the community so that there can be a meaningful development for this property rather than just more parking for District Detroit." Olympia did not return a message Monday seeking comment about the concerns of Asian American activists expressed at the news conference. City officials have said the building was a safety hazard and needed to be demolished. More:Detroit's old Chinatown building demolished despite calls to consider preservation A couple of speakers compared the razing of the building and the death of Chinatown to the destruction of the Black Bottom area of Detroit, once filled with Black-owned businesses that were displaced for highway construction. They noted that the Chin case decades ago brought together Asian and Black activists, calling for the two communities to once again work together to develop Detroit. James Yee, of Livonia, held up a framed photo of his grandparents, who ran Shanghai Cafe, a Chinese restaurant near the demolished building from the 1940s to the 1960s. "I'm here on behalf of my grandfather ... and my father ... and my kids, whom I've shown this space to prior to demolition," Yee said. "But I'm primarily here for my grandmother, who raised me." Yee said what's important is not the memories of his family's restaurant, but the history of the Chinese American community in the area. The building housed several groups, such as the Chinese Merchants Association, which assisted immigrants. "There's no disputing the progress that has been made in this area, but there's a cost to that progress," Yee said. "You compare Detroit to other cities like Chicago that have a respect for their history. ... One of the underlying problems in the metro Detroit area is the fact that we don't have a connection to the past." More:Asian Americans oppose demolition plans for historic Chinatown building in Detroit Arthur Park, who leads a peace and justice committee at Central United Methodist Church, a congregation that has welcomed Chinese immigrants for decades, said: "We Asians feel like we're unwanted. … Is there space for the Asian American community in Detroit? ... Please include us in the discussion of the future of this property." Detroit has one of the lowest percentages of Asian Americans and immigrants among large cities in the U.S., according to census data. State Sen. Stephanie Chang, D-Detroit, said: “Make sure that we’re listening to the descendants of Detroit’s Chinatown. ... Find ways to preserve the history before it is too late. Seeing the demolition on Saturday was devastating for many of us, but I really believe that the city and Olympia has an opportunity, if they choose to take it, to work hand in hand with the Asian American community." Hayg Oshagan, with the city council's immigration task force, also criticized the demolition, wondering why it was torn down so soon before any discussion. "This is an unfortunate event that happened," said Detroit City Councilwoman Gabriela Santiago-Romero, who introduced the resolution calling to halt the demolition. "I'm dedicated ... to ensuring that we do designate Chinatown as historic." Reporters Dana Afana and Aurora Sousanis contributed to this report.

Chilliwack – The Chilliwack School Board is not new to controversy. Trustee Teri Westerby, Canada’s first openly Trans school trustee, posted a Barbie (movie) themed meme that took a shot “Christian Values”. Many of the faith did not see the humour in the meme that comes as the number one movie in the country is the new “Barbie” movie (starring Ryan Gosling and Margot Robbie). At least that what some critics thought was a slam. That included former Chilliwack MLA John Les and former Trustee Barry Neufeld (who is a stanch opponent of the SOGI-123 program initiated by the Province some seven years ago). Les posted to Facebook: This was apparently posted on FB by Chilliwack School trustee Teri Westerby. Excellent agenda exposure. It is to weep. Neufeld on Facebook: Trustee Westerby is showing his true colors! This priest(ess?) of this diabolical spiritual cult (and all transitioned adults) should be banned from all contact with our children in public schools! Currently, he is visiting schools and looking for converts to his worldview: encouraging them to secretly transition, mutilate their bodies and alienate their parents and extended families. I was prohibited from contact with children because I might upset the 0.5% of kids who were gender dysphoric. Westerby is making over 40% of the student body feel threatened because of their families’ traditional worldview! 2023 Facebook Meme – Teri Westerby/July 28 School Board Chair Willow Reichelt posted the apology on behalf of the School District: The Chilliwack School District embraces families of all religious faiths (and no faith) and recognizes that different families have different values. We strive to create learning spaces where people of all different backgrounds can come together and treat each other with respect. The meme that Trustee Westerby shared on his personal Facebook page was intended to poke fun at online commentators who are upset that the Barbie movie has a feminist message. If you know the history of the meme, you know that the intent is not to advocate crushing traditional values but to point out the absurdity of saying that the Barbie movie has that power. However, if you do not know the meme’s history, it’s understandable that the image could be hurtful. I apologize on behalf of the board, and I want to offer my assurance that Christians and other people of faith are welcome and supported in this district. Further comments from Westerby’s Facebook page, explaining the meme: Conservatives are pearl clutching that the Barbie movie is destroying traditional family / Christian values – this is a meme that mocks them. It’s based on an oatmeal cartoon that mocks a right wing facist who said “Someone must not be afraid to say, ‘moral perversion is wrong.’ If we do not act now, homosexuals will ‘own’ America! If you and I do not speak up now, this homosexual steamroller will literally crush all decent men, women, and children who get in its way … and our nation will pay a terrible price!” And the entire comic is capped off with the amazing satirical comic of a rainbow steamroller labelled “GayRoller 2000” literally crushing people to death. It’s a mockery of people who are grasping at straws when it comes to commentary about equity. Barbie the toy debuted in 1959 and what made her unique was that she was a single woman, who owned her own car and house and could work anywhere she wanted (something American women could not actually do at the time… and many women around the world still can’t). The Ken doll was made after, as an accessory to Barbie – if the kid playing with them chose to have a ken around. Otherwise, Barbie did not need her Ken, she could be and do whatever she wanted. This was the dream of Ruth Handler, it’s creator. In the Barbie movie, Barbie’s exist in this perfect world run by women, where women do all the important jobs and Ken’s only job and reason for being is to be there for whenever Barbie wants him around. Sound familiar? The Barbie Movie takes the patriarchal world we live in and flips it. Ken goes through what women in the real world very often have to face – a world that was not built for them, that they have to find their place in – to realize that he is more than just an “add on” to his partner. He is a real, whole person, with his own thoughts, needs and desires, who can contribute to the world the way HE wants to, and be an equal player in its creation. This movie was intentionally made for all genders to see gender roles flipped on their head. To see that being a leader and being part of the world isn’t about gender at all. Barbie director Greta Gerwig responded to the right-wing backlash to the New York Times, calling it unexpected and stating: “My hope for the movie is that it’s an invitation for everybody to be part of the party and let go of the things that aren’t necessarily serving us as either women or men. I hope that in all of that passion, if they see it or engage with it, it can give them some of the relief that it gave other people.”

Fraser Valley (Reddit/Instagram) – This is part of a blog from “Chris”. He is 44 years old and before this journey, went through the BC Foster Care system and has since cleaned up, lost a ton of weight and wants to better himself and improve his mental health. Thank you to Andrew Crosby for letting FVN know about his story./ Chris’ bike ride is expected to take him through the Fraser Valley in the coming weeks. This is his story via Reddit and Instagram: After 20+ years of addiction, depression, anxiety and numerous health issues I rode across the country to better myself. To create a foundation of health upon which I can find long term success. If you see me, wave, honk, it really helps motivate me. You can also go back and see my journey via insta. Nothingfancy_justpedal Lots of words to follow. I have posted to each province as I made my way across the country. I wasn’t going to post here, or BC for that matter but, I think it’s important to stay consistent. This post will be different then my others. All the other posts I made in all the other provinces I introduced myself and shared why I was doing this. This one, I will share why, but I want to add emphasis to what I’ve learned and how I’ve healed. First, I’m a 44 yo Indigenous man who was raised ward of the court in BC. Foster homes from 6 to when I aged out. When I aged out, like so many of us wards I was shown the street and was forgotten about. What followed is predictable, 20 plus years of homelessness, addictions, incarnation, and brutal mental health issues. Recently I learned that BC will pay for school for former wards regardless of age. I desperately wanted this but knew the broken man I was would certainly fail. So instead of flying home (was living out east) I decided to jump on a bike a pedal across the country. With the reasoning being, the man who could do that could almost certainly do school. So on May 11th, un trained and unprepared I left Moncton NB and started my journey. Over the past 2.5 months I have lost over 50lbs, my diabetic dizzy spells have all but disappeared, knee and back pain is gone, mentally…. Mentally I’ve never been stronger. There are still dark moments but they blast minutes or hours instead of days or weeks. I have nothing but time to think. Sometimes it’s dark but more often than not I’m thinking about my place in this world, I’m thinking about the people I’ve met, the people who’ve supported me, the people… There is so much good in this world. Which was a huge learning experience for me. I have effectively been alone for years not trusting anyone and always hateful and on defense. I’ve learned first hand the effect people and caring can have. It ripples like a stone breaking through the water. I found the ability to own my part in this. I got off the couch. And because I was able to invest in myself people from all over the world invested in me too. Their love and support further Inspired and empowered me. Which in turn inspired and empowered others. I have numerous people that I speak to who have found their purpose to get off their own couch. They’re biking, walking, going to school, running, rebuilding their relationships. We’re all now connected. All of us. This isn’t one fat man pedally across the country. This ended up being a community of caring people revealing what they have to reveal to broken people who’s found the strength to get up and work towards what ever purpose it is they need to keep looking up. I am so blessed and so humbled by the support and kindness of people. I’m so proud of those who’ve gotten of their couch. I am almost done my journey, but my story will continue as I now know and understand my place in this world. If you see a still pretty big Indian riding the number 1 from Medicine Hat to Cowtown, give me a honk or a wave. Thanks for reading and if you would like to go back and see the changes yourself, I have numerous posts on reddit, or insta Nothingfancy_justpedal

Chilliwack- JULY 31 UPDATE – Heavy machinery was being delivered to the job site on Monday afternoon (July 31). This as the City of Chilliwack will be starting work on a 54 stall parking lot on Victoria Avenue. 2023 Victoria Avenue Parking July 31/FVN JULY 28 UPDATE – In August, City of Chilliwack will be starting work on a 54 stall parking lot on Victoria Avenue. This is next to the Chilliwack Alano Club and across the street from the Chilliwack Business Centre. One block away from District 1881. Learn more at https://loom.ly/OkTgUCE ORIGINAL STORY – The City recently purchased three lots along the north side of Victoria Avenue, east of Young Road, in the downtown core near District 1881. This is next to the Chilliwack Alano Club and across the street from parking for the Chilliwack Business Centre. The previous structures were demolished to prepare to build additional parking spaces. Phase 1 of the project is scheduled to be completed in fall 2023. Phase 2 of the project is scheduled to be completed by end of summer 2024. There are two major phases to this project. 1. Victoria Avenue will become a one-way roadway from Young Road to Nowell Street. This allows for additional parking spaces to be built within this section of roadway. Additionally, 2 of the 3 lots will be developed with 41 parking stalls. Four stalls will have level 2 electric vehicle chargers. 2. Due to site specific challenges, the third lot will need to be constructed following further assessment in a second phase. This phase will consist of 17 additional parking stalls. This phase is scheduled to be completed in summer 2024. The project tender (competitive selection for a contractor) is out for pricing and will close at the beginning of July. Timeline Early July: Tender closing and contractor selection Early August: Start of construction Early Fall: Phase 1 construction complete and parking lot opens Summer 2024 (estimated): Phase 2 construction complete 2023 City of Chilliwack/Victoria Area Parking Lot 2023 City of Chilliwack/Victoria Area Parking Lot/ Future Site/FVN

Thanks to Karya, a small Indian startup, millions of people whose languages are marginalized online could gain better access to the benefits of AI.

In the shade of a coconut palm, Chandrika tilts her smartphone screen to avoid the sun’s glare. It is early morning in Alahalli village in the southern Indian state of Karnataka, but the heat and humidity are rising fast. As Chandrika scrolls, she clicks on several audio clips in succession, demonstrating the simplicity of the app she recently started using. At each tap, the sound of her voice speaking her mother tongue emerges from the phone. Before she started using this app, 30-year-old Chandrika (who, like many South Indians, uses the first letter of her father's name, K., instead of a last name) had just 184 rupees ($2.25) in her bank account. But in return for around six hours of work spread over several days in late April, she received 2,570 rupees ($31.30). That’s roughly the same amount she makes in a month of working as a teacher at a distant school, after the cost of the three buses it takes her to get there and back. Unlike her day job, the app doesn’t make her wait until the end of the month for payment; money lands in her bank account in just a few hours. Just by reading text aloud in her native language of Kannada, spoken by around 60 million people mostly in central and southern India, Chandrika has used this app to earn an hourly wage of about $5, nearly 20 times the Indian minimum. And in a few days, more money will arrive—a 50% bonus, awarded once the voice clips are validated as accurate. Read More: Gig Workers Behind AI Face ‘Unfair Working Conditions,’ Oxford Report Finds Chandrika’s voice can fetch this sum because of the boom in artificial intelligence (AI). Right now, cutting edge AIs—for example, large language models like ChatGPT—work best in languages like English, where text and audio data is abundant online. They work much less well in languages like Kannada which, even though it is spoken by millions of people, is scarce on the internet. (Wikipedia has 6 million articles in English, for example, but only 30,000 in Kannada.) When they function at all, AIs in these “lower resourced” languages can be biased—by regularly assuming that doctors are men and nurses women, for example—and can struggle to understand local dialects. To create an effective English-speaking AI, it is enough to simply collect data from where it has already accumulated. But for languages like Kannada, you need to go out and find more. Photograph by Supranav Dash for TIME This has created huge demand for datasets—collections of text or voice data—in languages spoken by some of the poorest people in the world. Part of that demand comes from tech companies seeking to build out their AI tools. Another big chunk comes from academia and governments, especially in India, where English and Hindi have long held outsize precedence in a nation of some 1.4 billion people with 22 official languages and at least 780 more indigenous ones. This rising demand means that hundreds of millions of Indians are suddenly in control of a scarce and newly-valuable asset: their mother tongue. Data work—creating or refining the raw material at the heart of AI— is not new in India. The economy that did so much to turn call centers and garment factories into engines of productivity at the end of the 20th century has quietly been doing the same with data work in the 21st. And, like its predecessors, the industry is once again dominated by labor arbitrage companies, which pay wages close to the legal minimum even as they sell data to foreign clients for a hefty mark-up. The AI data sector, worth over $2 billion globally in 2022, is projected to rise in value to $17 billion by 2030. Little of that money has flowed down to data workers in India, Kenya, and the Philippines. These conditions may cause harms far beyond the lives of individual workers. “We’re talking about systems that are impacting our whole society, and workers who make those systems more reliable and less biased,” says Jonas Valente, an expert in digital work platforms at Oxford University’s Internet Institute. “If you have workers with basic rights who are more empowered, I believe that the outcome—the technological system—will have a better quality as well.” In the neighboring villages of Alahalli and Chilukavadi, one Indian startup is testing a new model. Chandrika works for Karya, a nonprofit launched in 2021 in Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore) that bills itself as “the world’s first ethical data company.” Like its competitors, it sells data to big tech companies and other clients at the market rate. But instead of keeping much of that cash as profit, it covers its costs and funnels the rest toward the rural poor in India. (Karya partners with local NGOs to ensure access to its jobs go first to the poorest of the poor, as well as historically marginalized communities.) In addition to its $5 hourly minimum, Karya gives workers de-facto ownership of the data they create on the job, so whenever it is resold, the workers receive the proceeds on top of their past wages. It’s a model that doesn’t exist anywhere else in the industry. “The wages that exist right now are a failure of the market,” Manu Chopra, the 27-year-old CEO of Karya, tells me. “We decided to be a nonprofit because fundamentally, you can’t solve a market failure in the market.” The work Karya is doing also means that millions of people whose languages are marginalized online could stand to gain better access to the benefits of technology—including AI. “Most people in the villages don’t know English,” says Vinutha, a 23-year-old student who has used Karya to reduce her financial reliance on her parents. “If a computer could understand Kannada, that would be very helpful.” Read More: 150 African Workers for ChatGPT, TikTok and Facebook Vote to Unionize at Landmark Nairobi Meeting The catch, if you can call it that, is that the work is supplementary. The first thing Karya tells its workers is: This is not a permanent job, but rather a way to quickly get an income boost that will allow you to go on and do other things. The maximum a worker can earn through the app is the equivalent of $1,500, roughly the average annual income in India. After that point, they make way for somebody else. Karya says it has paid out 65 million rupees (nearly $800,000) in wages to some 30,000 rural Indians up and down the country. By 2030, Chopra wants it to reach 100 million people. “I genuinely feel this is the quickest way to move millions of people out of poverty if done right,” says Chopra, who was born into poverty and won a scholarship to Stanford that changed his trajectory. “This is absolutely a social project. Wealth is power. And we want to redistribute wealth to the communities who have been left behind.” Chopra isn’t the first tech founder to rhapsodize about the potential of AI data work to benefit the world’s poorest. Sama, an outsourcing company that has handled contracts for OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Meta’s Facebook, also marketed itself as an “ethical” way for tech companies to lift people in the Global South out of poverty. But as I reported in January, many of its ChatGPT workers in Kenya—some earning less than $2 per hour—told me they were exposed to training data that left them traumatized. The company also performed similar content moderation work for Facebook; one worker on that project told me he was fired when he campaigned for better working conditions. When asked by the BBC about low wages in 2018, Sama’s late founder argued that paying workers higher wages could disrupt local economies, causing more harm than good. Many of the data workers I’ve spoken to while reporting on this industry for the past 18 months have bristled at this logic, saying it’s a convenient narrative for companies that are getting rich off the proceeds of their labor. Read More: OpenAI Used Kenyan Workers on Less Than $2 Per Hour to Make ChatGPT Less Toxic Sanjana, 18, left school to care for her sick father. Her Karya work helps support her family. Supranav Dash for TIME There is another way, Chopra argues. “The biggest lesson I have learned over the last 5 years is that all of this is possible,” he wrote in a series of tweets in response to my January article on ChatGPT. “This is not some dream for a fictional better world. We can pay our workers 20 times the minimum wage, and still be a sustainable organization.” It was the first I’d heard of Karya, and my immediate instinct was skepticism. Sama too had begun its life as a nonprofit focused on poverty eradication, only to transition later to a for-profit business. Could Karya really be a model for a more inclusive and ethical AI industry? Even if it were, could it scale? One thing was clear: there could be few better testing grounds for these questions than India—a country where mobile data is among the cheapest in the world, and where it is common for even poor rural villagers to have access to both a smartphone and a bank account. Then there is the potential upside: even before the pandemic some 140 million people in India survived on under $2.15 per day, according to the World Bank. For those people, cash injections of the magnitude Chopra was talking about could be life-changing. Just 70 miles from the bustling tech metropolis of Bengaluru, past sugarcane fields and under the bright orange arcs of blossoming gulmohar trees, is the village of Chilukavadi. Inside a low concrete building, the headquarters of a local farming cooperative, a dozen men and women are gathered—all of whom have started working for Karya within the past week. Kanakaraj S., a skinny 21-year-old, sits cross-legged on the cool concrete floor. He is studying at a nearby college, and to pay for books and transport costs he occasionally works as a casual laborer in the surrounding fields. A day’s work can earn him 350 rupees (around $4) but this kind of manual labor is becoming more unbearable as climate change makes summers here even more sweltering than usual. Working in a factory in a nearby city would mean a slightly higher wage, but means hours of daily commuting on unreliable and expensive buses or, worse, moving away from his support network to live in dormitory accommodation in the city. At Karya, Kanakaraj can earn more in an hour than he makes in a day in the fields. “The work is good,” he says. “And easy.” Chopra says that’s a typical refrain when he meets villagers. “They’re happy we pay them well,” he says, but more importantly, “it’s that it’s not hard work. It’s not physical work.” Kanakaraj was surprised when he saw the first payment land in his bank account. “We’ve lost a lot of money from scams,” he tells me, explaining that it is common for villagers to receive SMS texts preying on their desperation, offering to multiply any deposits they make by 10. When somebody first told him about Karya he assumed it was a similar con—a common initial response, according to Chopra. Read More: Big Tech Layoffs Are Hurting Workers Far Beyond Silicon Valley With so little in savings, local people often find themselves taking out loans to cover emergency costs. Predatory agencies tend to charge high interest rates on these loans, leaving some villagers here trapped in cycles of debt. Chandrika, for example, will use some of her Karya wages to help her family pay off a large medical loan incurred when her 25-year-old sister fell ill with low blood pressure. Despite the medical treatment, her sister died, leaving the family responsible for both an infant and a mountain of debt. “We can figure out how to repay the loan,” says Chandrika, a tear rolling down her cheek. “But we can’t bring back my sister.” Other Karya workers find themselves in similar situations. Ajay Kumar, 25, is drowning in medical debt taken out to address his mother’s severe back injury. And Shivanna N., 38, lost his right hand in a firecracker accident as a boy. While he doesn’t have debt, his disability means he struggles to make a living. The work these villagers are doing is part of a new project that Karya is rolling out across the state of Karnataka for an Indian healthcare NGO seeking speech data about tuberculosis—a mostly curable and preventable disease that still kills around 200,000 Indians every year. The voice recordings, collected in 10 different dialects of Kannada, will help train an AI speech model to understand local people’s questions about tuberculosis, and respond with information aimed at reducing the spread of the disease. The hope is that the app, when completed, will make it easier for illiterate people to access reliable information, without shouldering the stigma that tuberculosis patients—victims of a contagious disease—often attract when they seek help in small communities. The recordings will also go up for sale on Karya’s platform as part of its Kannada dataset, on offer to the many AI companies that care less about the contents of their training data than what it encodes about the overall structure of the language. Every time it’s resold, 100% of the revenue will be distributed to the Karya workers who contributed to the dataset, apportioned by the hours they put in. Manu Chopra, CEO of Karya Supranav Dash for TIME Rajamma M., a 30-year-old woman from a nearby village, previously worked as a COVID-19 surveyor for the government, going from door to door checking if people had been vaccinated. But the work dried up in January. The money from working for Karya, she says, has been welcome—but more than that, she has appreciated the opportunity to learn. “This work has given me greater awareness about tuberculosis and how people should take their medicine,” she says. “This will be helpful for my job in the future.” Although small, Karya already has a list of high-profile clients including Microsoft, MIT, and Stanford. In February, it began work on a new project for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation to build voice datasets in five languages spoken by some 1 billion Indians—Marathi, Telugu, Hindi, Bengali, and Malayalam. The end goal is to build a chatbot that can answer rural Indians’ questions, in their native languages and dialects, about health care, agriculture, sanitation, banking, and career development. This technology (think of it as a ChatGPT for poverty eradication) could help share the knowledge needed to improve quality of life across vast swaths of the subcontinent. “I think there should be a world where language is no longer a barrier to technology—so everyone can use technology irrespective of the language they speak,” says Kalika Bali, a linguist and principal researcher at Microsoft Research who is working with the Gates Foundation on the project and is an unpaid member of Karya’s oversight board. She has specifically designed the prompts workers are given to read aloud to mitigate the gender biases that often creep into datasets and thus help to avoid the “doctor” and “nurse” problem. But it’s not just about the prompts. Karya’s relatively high wages “percolate down to the quality of the data,” Bali says. “It will immediately result in better accuracy of the system’s output.” She says she typically receives data with a less than 1% error rate from Karya, “which is almost never the case with data that we build [AI] models with.” Over the course of several days together, Chopra tells me a version of his life story that makes his path toward Karya feel simultaneously impossible and inevitable. He was born in 1996 in a basti, an informal settlement, next to a railway line in Delhi. His grandparents had arrived there as refugees from Pakistan during the partition of British India in 1947, and there the family had remained for two generations. Although his parents were well-educated, he says, they sometimes struggled to put food on the table. He could tell when his father, who ran a small factory making train parts, had had a good day at work because dinner would be the relatively expensive Maggi instant ramen, not cheap lentil dal. Every monsoon the basti’s gutters would flood, and his family would have to move in with his grandmother nearby for a few days. “I think all of us have a keen recognition of the idea that money is a cushion from reality,” Chopra says of the Karya team. “Our goal is to give that cushion to as many people as possible.” Chopra excelled at the basti’s local school, which was run by an NGO. When he was in ninth grade he won a scholarship to a private school in Delhi, which was running a competition to give places to kids from poor backgrounds. Though he was bullied, he acknowledges that certain privileges helped open doors for him. “As difficult as my journey was, it was significantly easier than most people’s in India,” he says, “because I was born to two educated parents in an upper-caste family in a major city.” When Chopra was 17, a woman was fatally gang-raped on a bus in Delhi, a crime that shocked India and the world. Chopra, who was discovering a love for computer science at the time and idolized Steve Jobs, set to work. He built a wristwatch-style “anti-molestation device,” which could detect an elevated heart rate and administer a weak electric shock to an attacker, with the intent to allow the victim time to escape. The device grabbed the attention of the media and India’s former President, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, who encouraged Chopra to apply for a scholarship at Stanford. (The only thing Chopra knew about Stanford at the time, he recalls, is that Jobs studied there. Later he discovered even that wasn’t true.) Only later did Chopra realize the naivety of trying to solve the problem of endemic sexual violence with a gadget. “Technologists are very prone to seeing a problem and building to solve it,” he says. “It’s hard to critique an 11th grade kid, but it was a very technical solution.” From left to right: Santhosh, 22, Chandrika, 30, and Guruprasad, 23, display the Karya app on their phones. Supranav Dash for TIME Shivanna N., 38, lost his right hand in an accident at the age of 8. His disability has made it hard to find work. Supranav Dash for TIME As he tells it, his arrival in California was a culture shock in more ways than one. On his first night, Chopra says, each student in his dorm explained how they planned to make their first billion dollars. Somebody suggested building “Snapchat for puppies,” he recalls. Everyone there aspired to be a billionaire, he realized, except him. “Very early at Stanford, I felt alone, like I was in the wrong place,” Chopra says. Still, he had come to college as a “techno-utopian,” he says. That gradually fell away as he learned in class about how IBM had built systems to support Apartheid in South Africa, and other ways technology companies had hurt the world by chasing profit alone. Returning to India after college, Chopra joined Microsoft Research, a subsidiary of the big tech company that gives researchers a long leash to work on difficult social problems. With his colleague Vivek Seshadri, he set out to research whether it would be possible to channel money to rural Indians using digital work. One of Chopra’s first field visits was to a center operated by an AI data company in Mumbai. The room was hot and dirty, he recalls, and full of men hunched over laptops doing image annotation work. When he asked them how much they were earning, they told him they made 30 rupees per hour, or just under $0.40. He didn’t have the heart to tell them the going rate for the data they were annotating was, conservatively, 10 times that amount. “I thought, this cannot be the only way this work can happen,” he says. Chopra and Seshadri worked on the idea for four years at Microsoft Research, doing field studies and building a prototype app. They discovered an “overwhelming enthusiasm” for the work among India’s rural poor, according to a paper they published with four colleagues in 2019. The research confirmed Chopra and Seshadri’s suspicions that the work could be done to to a high standard of accuracy even with no training, from a smartphone rather than a physical office, and without workers needing the ability to speak English – thus making it possible to reach not just city-dwellers but the poorest of the poor in rural India. In 2021 Chopra and Seshadri, with a grant from Microsoft Research, quit their jobs to spin Karya out as an independent nonprofit, joined by a third cofounder, Safiya Husain. (Microsoft holds no equity in Karya.) Unlike many Silicon Valley rags-to-riches stories, Chopra’s trajectory, in his telling, wasn’t a result of his own hard work. “I got lucky 100 times in a row,” he says. “I’m a product of irrational compassion from nonprofits, from schools, from the government—all of these places that are supposed to help everyone, but they don’t. When I have received so much compassion, the least I can do is give back.” Not everybody is eligible to work for Karya. Chopra says that initially he and his team opened the app up to anybody, only to realize the first hundred sign-ups were all men from a dominant-caste community. The experience taught him that “knowledge flows through the channels of power,” Chopra says. To reach the poorest communities—and marginalized castes, genders, and religions—Chopra learned early on that he had to team up with nonprofits with a grassroots presence in rural areas. Those organizations could distribute access codes on Karya’s behalf in line with income and diversity requirements. “They know for whom that money is nice to have, and for whom it is life-changing,” he says. This process also ensures more diversity in the data that workers end up generating, which can help to minimize AI bias. Chopra defines this approach using a Hindi word—thairaav—a term from Indian classical music which he translates as a mixture between “pause” and “thoughtful impact.” It’s a concept, he says, that is missing not only from the English language, but also from the business philosophies of Silicon Valley tech companies, who often put scale and speed above all else. Thairaav, to him, means that “at every step, you are pausing and thinking: Am I doing the right thing? Is this right for the community I’m trying to serve?” That kind of thoughtfulness “is just missing from a lot of entrepreneurial ‘move fast and break things’ behavior,” he says. It’s an approach that has led Karya to flatly reject four offers so far from prospective clients to do content moderation that would require workers to view traumatizing material. It’s compelling. But it’s also coming from a guy who says he wants to scale his app to reach 100 million Indians by 2030. Doesn’t Karya’s reliance on grassroots NGOs to onboard every new worker mean it faces a significant bottleneck? Actually, Chopra tells me, the limiting factor to Karya’s expansion isn’t finding new workers. There are millions who will jump at the chance to earn its high wages, and Karya has built a vetted network of more than 200 grassroots NGOs to onboard them. The bottleneck is the amount of available work. “What we need is large-scale awareness that most data companies are unethical,” he says, “and that there is an ethical way.” For the app to have the impact Chopra believes it can, he needs to win more clients—to persuade more tech companies, governments, and academic institutions to get their AI training data from Karya. Madhurashree, 19, says her work for Karya has helped inform her about tuberculosis symptoms and precautions. Supranav Dash for TIME But it’s often in the pursuit of new clients that even companies that pride themselves on ethics can end up compromising. What’s to stop Karya doing the same? Part of the answer, Chopra says, lies in Karya’s corporate structure. Karya is registered as a nonprofit in the U.S. that controls two entities in India: one nonprofit and one for-profit. The for-profit is legally bound to donate any profits it makes (after reimbursing workers) to the nonprofit, which reinvests them. The convoluted structure, Chopra says, is because Indian law prevents nonprofits from making any more than 20% of their income from the market as opposed to philanthropic donations. Karya does take grant funding—crucially, it covers the salaries of all 24 of its full-time employees—but not enough to have an entirely nonprofit model be possible. The arrangement, Chopra says, has the benefit of removing any incentive for him or his co-founders to compromise on worker salaries or well-being in return for lucrative contracts. It’s a model that works for the moment, but could collapse if philanthropic funding dries up. “Karya is very young, and they have got a lot of good traction,” says Subhashree Dutta, a managing partner at The/Nudge Institute, an incubator that has supported Karya with a $20,000 grant. “They have the ability to stay true to their values and still attract capital. But I don’t think they have been significantly exposed to the dilemmas of taking the for-profit or not-for-profit stance.” Over the course of two days with Karya workers in southern Karnataka, the limitations of Karya’s current system begin to come into focus. Each worker says they have completed 1,287 tasks on the app—the maximum, at the point of my visit, of the number of tasks available on the tuberculosis project. It equates to about six hours of work. The money workers can receive (just under $50 after bonuses for accuracy) is a welcome boost but won’t last long. On my trip I don’t meet any workers who have received royalties. Chopra tells me that Karya has only just amassed enough resellable data to be attractive to buyers; it has so far distributed $116,000 in royalties to around 4,000 workers, but the ones I've met are too early into their work to be among them. I put to Chopra that it will still take much more to have a meaningful impact on these villagers’ lives. The tuberculosis project is only the beginning for these workers, he replies. They are lined up to shortly begin work on transcription tasks—part of a push by the Indian government to build AI models in several regional languages including Kannada. That, he says, will allow Karya to give “significantly more” work to the villagers in Chilukavadi. Still, the workers are a long way from the $1,500 that would mark their graduation from Karya’s system. Eventually, Chopra acknowledges that not a single one of Karya’s 30,000 workers has reached the $1,500 threshold. Yet their enjoyment of the work, and their desire for more, is clear: when Seshadri, now Karya’s chief technology officer, asks the room full of workers whether they would feel capable of a new task flagging inaccuracies in Kannada sentences, they erupt in excited chatter: a unanimous yes. The villagers I speak to in Chilukavadi and Alahalli have only a limited understanding of artificial intelligence. Chopra says this can be a challenge when explaining to workers what they’re doing. The most successful approach his team has found is telling workers they are “teaching the computer to speak Kannada,” he says. Nobody here knows of ChatGPT, but villagers do know that Google Assistant (which they refer to as “OK Google”) works better when you prompt it in English than in their mother tongue. Siddaraju L., a 35-year-old unemployed father of three, says he doesn’t know what AI is, but would feel proud if a computer could speak his language. “The same respect I have for my parents, I have for my mother tongue.” Just as India was able to leapfrog the rest of the world on 4G because it was unencumbered by existing mobile data infrastructure, the hope is that efforts like the ones Karya is enabling will help Indian-language AI projects learn from the mistakes of English AIs and begin from a far more reliable and unbiased starting point. “Until not so long ago, a speech-recognition engine for English would not even understand my English,” says Bali, the speech researcher, referring to her accent. “What is the point of AI technologies being out there if they do not cater to the users they are targeting?” Write to Billy Perrigo at billy.perrigo@time.com.

Hunter Biden would regularly put his famous dad on speaker phone during business meetings, a former associate testified, but it was all small talk.

The initial leaks of the expected testimony were titillating. A former long-time business associate of Hunter Biden was going to tell Congressional investigators about times when Hunter Biden put his father, then-Vice President of the United States, on speaker phone during business meetings. But when the time came on Monday for lawmakers and House Oversight Committee staff to sit down with Devon Archer for a 3-hour-and-20-minute deposition in a hot, poorly ventilated conference room in the Thomas P. O'Neill Jr. House Office Building, the result appeared less damning than the committee’s Republicans had advertised. Over the years, Hunter Biden had traded on the “illusion” of influence and his famous father’s brand name, but had not been able to influence him, Archer testified, according to Rep. Dan Goldman, a Democrat from New York who sat through the entirety of Archer’s recorded interview on Monday. "Hunter wanted to give off the appearance of having access to his father,” Goldman tells TIME. Monday’s interview was the latest turn in an intense effort by Republicans in Congress to dig into how Hunter Biden used his father’s famous name to advance his own interests. They have so far have failed to find evidence that Joe Biden himself ever benefited from his son’s dealings. Speaker Kevin McCarthy is watching for signs that the House investigation uncovers enough to launch an impeachment proceeding against Joe Biden. House Republicans are tracking allegations from two IRS whistleblowers that the Department of Justice went easy on Hunter Biden in a deal that fell apart in front of a federal judge in July, and recent news that a Democratic donor who purchased a pricey painting from an art dealer representing Hunter Biden was named to a presidential commission. But Archer’s testimony delivered less than promised. Archer and Hunter Biden had worked closely together from the time when they were partners together in the investment firm Rosemont Seneca. They also both served on the board of Ukrainian oil and gas company Burisma. Archer testified that Joe Biden spoke to his son Hunter nearly every day, particularly in the months after Hunter’s brother Beau died in May 2015, and he had seen Hunter Biden put Joe Biden on speaker phone during business meetings and with friends about 20 times over 10 years of working together, Goldman said. But Archer told House investigators that nothing of substance was ever discussed in those calls, according to Goldman. “It was purely small talk, niceties, hello, chitchatting and nothing related to any aspect of any of Hunter Biden’s financial dealings or business dealings,” Goldman says, describing Archer’s testimony. The two Republicans on the committee who attended the interview, which was also conducted by a former career prosecutor hired by Republicans, said Archer’s testimony backed up their investigation. Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio told reporters on Monday that the Archer interview was "very productive." Rep. Andy Biggs of Arizona told reporters that Archer testified that the Biden "brand" helped keep Burisma afloat. But Republicans on the committee didn’t stay for all of Archer’s testimony, which was recorded and will be transcribed and shared with all of the committee members. Jordan left 2 hours into Archer’s questioning, when Republican committee members and staff finished their allotted time, and Biggs left during Democrats’ questions, Goldman says. The committee’s questions focused on the years that Archer spent on the Burisma board with Hunter Biden. Hunter’s time at Burisma has been at the center of a debunked conspiracy theory peddled by Rudy Giuliani that Hunter had convinced Joe Biden to advocate for removing the top prosecutor in Ukraine who was investigating the company. It’s that discredited theory that convinced then-President Trump to withhold aid to Ukraine in an effort to pressure President Vladimir Zelensky to investigate Joe Biden in the run up to the 2020 election, leading to Trump’s first impeachment for misusing the power of his office for personal political leverage. But Archer told committee members on Monday that Burisma’s board did not view the removal of prosecutor Viktor Shokin as helpful at the time.Joe Biden had joined leaders from the International Monetary Fund and the European Union in calling for Shokin’s removal. Instead of Shokin being a threat to Burisma, as the conspiracy theory supposes, the Burisma board thought it had Shokin “under its control” before being removed, Archer said on Monday, according to Goldman’s description of his testimony. Archer testified to the committee under subpoena. He’s facing prison time in a separate investigation for the fraudulent issuance and sale of $60 million of tribal bonds. Over the weekend, the Department of Justice asked the judge in the case to schedule a date for Archer’s surrender to prison. Archer’s attorney said he answered questions fully and truthfully on Monday. “We are aware that all sides are claiming victory following Mr. Archer’s voluntary interview today,” said Archer's attorney, Matthew Schwartz, in a statement. “But all Devon Archer did was exactly what we said he would: show up and answer the questions put to him honestly and completely.” Democrats in Congress took aim at House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer for continuing to investigate Hunter Biden without being able to provide proof that his business dealings involved or benefitted his father. The top Democrat on the committee, Rep. Jamie Raskin of Maryland, said in a statement on Monday, “Try as he might, Chairman Comer has yet again failed to produce any evidence of wrongdoing by President Biden.” Contact us at letters@time.com.
