‘Women accounted for 158,000, or roughly 98%, of the 162,000 net new nonfarm payroll jobs added to the U.S. economy in August 2026.
Compared to this time last year, there are 870,000 more women employed in the U.S., according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and 1.5 million fewer employed men.’

This is liberalism by design. A person or an organization, is entitled to behave on their own interests, within the lawful framework. Thus the overall process looks like a paradox, just like anyone observe closely any non trivial software and maverled at the harmony derivied from the utterly incomprehensible chaos.
Although by now, everyone understanding the term liberalism already knows these.
Worse yet. Even by themselves taking a shape of public service while pursuing private profit, media are essentially being stolen of their values by the AI company. Where information used to produced, now they are manufactured and medicated by AI models, the no one paid anything beyond nominal data purchase fees.

2. He cherry picked one month of data. And in fact the data for that month was flagged as bad and the new data for the number of women is not released yet. [3]
The real data for each months looks more like:
Monthly Job Changes — U.S. Establishment Survey (CES), 2026 (Seasonally adjusted, in thousands. Women = BLS Table B-5 / CES0000000010. Men = implied: Total − Women.)
Month ΔTotal ΔWomen ΔMen (implied)
Feb -156 -27 -129
Mar +214 +98 +116
Apr +148 +84 +64
May +63 +49 +14
Jun +31 +89 -58
Jul -10 -32 +22
Aug +133 +145 -12
Sep +29 +14 +15
So no there is not some crazy trend that only women are being hired. This is classic propaganda using cherry picked data.
