美國將向農民提供47億美元彌補貿易戰損失

美國將向農民提供47億美元彌補貿易戰損失

特朗普政府稱,將向美國農民提供47億美元,以彌補波及全球的貿易戰帶來的損失。農業部長Sonny Perdue周一表示,這是向那些因美國主要貿易伙伴實施關稅而遭受打擊的農民提供的首筆資金,這些關稅舉措導致從大豆到豬肉及蘋果等商品的生產商在農業經濟迅速滑坡之際變得脆弱。農民們一直在焦急等待美國農業部今年7月承諾的救助計劃的細節。農業部當時表示,將提供至多120億美元緊急救助資金,以應對美國貿易伙伴對特朗普實施的貿易政策的不合理報復行為。

(WASHINGTON) — A U.S. official says the Veterans Day military parade ordered up by President Donald Trump would cost about $92 million — more than three times the maximum initial estimate.
The official — who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss plans that haven’t been released yet — says about $50 million would cover Pentagon costs for equipment, personnel and other support for the November parade in Washington. The remainder would be borne by other agencies and would include security costs.
Details are not final and haven’t been approved by Defense Secretary Jim Mattis.
The White House budget office earlier estimated to Congress the parade would cost between $10 million and $30 million.
Trump decided he wanted the parade after he attended France’s Bastille Day celebration in Paris last year.

 特朗普總統繼續攻擊其前白宮助手奧馬羅薩·馬尼戈·紐曼(Omarosa Manigault Newman)

• 來自總統的侮辱。

特朗普總統繼續攻擊其前白宮助手奧馬羅薩·馬尼戈·紐曼(Omarosa Manigault Newman),稱她為“那條狗”和一個“瘋狂的、哭喊的卑鄙之徒”,以此回應她對自己精神惡化和種族歧視的指控。

我們的華盛頓團隊寫道:“即便是對一個常常用Twitter來攻擊對手的總統來說,這條關於馬尼戈·紐曼的早間推文也無比粗魯地利用了總統的權力講壇來侮辱一個曾經在他的白宮擔任最高級別官員的少數族裔女性。”

此外,她只是近期總統公開詆毀的越來越多的非裔美國人中最新的一位。

美國國會通過國防法案,兩黨聯手強硬對華

美國國會通過國防法案,兩黨聯手強硬對華

在美國兩黨加緊聯手抵制中國的形勢下,美國國會通過了一項國防政策法案,一些議員認為這份法案的對華態度堪稱史上最強硬。按照這項年度政策法案的授權,美國政府在下一個財政年度內總國防支出可達7,160億美元。這項法案試圖遏制中國政府一系列政策,包括增加南中國海(中國稱南海)的軍事活動,獲取美國尖端科技以及在美國各機構內宣傳中共。參議院周三以87票贊成、10票反對的結果通過了該法案,該法案上周已在眾議院獲批,預計總統特朗普將簽署使之成為法律。從今年的《國家國防授權法案》可以看出,在國會兩黨和國家安全官員中逐漸達成共識,認為全球正在邁進一個大國競爭的新時代,為了與中國和俄羅斯競爭,美國必須采取更多行動。
