    司法部长或许是唐纳德·特朗普内阁中最不可能胜任的职位。

    特朗普要求的不仅是有违伦理的事，还要求那些介于极难办到和完全不可能办到之间的事。没人能拿捏好分寸。杰夫·塞申斯试图做制度主义者，很快就被边缘化了。威廉·巴尔随后为特朗普采取了一些极其政治化的行动，但最终还是不愿做到特朗普要求的那般地步。

    帕姆·邦迪为了让司法部为特朗普的政治目的服务，比巴尔走得更远。但在周四被解雇后，她成为了60年来任职时间最短的经确认的司法部长。

    邦迪在很多方面本就注定失败。但她显然也让自己的处境变得更糟。

    这一点在她与特朗普之间的两个症结问题上体现得尤为明显：爱泼斯坦文件，以及特朗普迄今为止毫无成效的报复行动。

    爱泼斯坦文件

    邦迪任职期间最具破坏性的方面无疑是爱泼斯坦文件事件。

    特朗普及其团队帮了邦迪倒忙，他们在2024年大肆宣扬特朗普发布这些文件的承诺。随后在2025年年中，特朗普似乎突然转而反对发布这些文件，并为此斗争了数月，直到国会迫使他妥协。

    这种转变很难向投入极高关注度的公众解释。邦迪还让情况变得更糟。

    今年2月，她在白宫向保守派影响力人士分发了“爱泼斯坦文件”活页夹。但这些活页夹里几乎没有新信息。一些影响力人士对这场几乎毫无实质内容的拍照活动表示不满。

    她还就文件内容发表了一系列令人费解的言论，这些言论显然反过来给政府带来了麻烦。

    例如，当被问及传闻中的爱泼斯坦客户名单时，她称其“现在就在我的办公桌上”，引发了极大的期待。她还称有“数万段”爱泼斯坦“与儿童或儿童色情内容相关的视频”。

    但当政府改变透明度承诺的立场时，这些说法被收回了。而且根据迄今为止已公布的内容，没有任何证据能佐证这些说法。
    （邦迪后来声称，她并不是特指某一份客户名单，而是泛指更多爱泼斯坦相关文件。）

    事实上，无论文件最终结果如何，邦迪的说法本身就会引发问题。但她提高了公众对政府后来想要淡化处理的事情的预期。

    到爱泼斯坦事件尾声时，邦迪实际上已被排除在谈论这些文件的工作之外——这项工作通常由副司法部长托德·布兰奇接手，他现在暂时领导司法部。（值得一提的是，布兰奇自己也有爱泼斯坦相关的问题。）

    在2月份那场近乎滑稽夸张的听证会上，她甚至回避了共和党议员就该议题提出的问题，随后她收到了两党罕见地联合发出的传票，要求她在本月晚些时候与众议院监督委员会重新讨论此事。

    白宫办公厅主任苏西·瓦尔斯在12月《名利场》发表的评论中总结了这一情况。瓦尔斯说，邦迪在爱泼斯坦文件问题上“完全搞砸了”，显然没有必要再掩饰这一点。

    针对特朗普的政敌

    可以说，在特朗普的报复行动方面，邦迪面临的障碍甚至更高。

    虽然特朗普在第一任期就曾试图调查他的政敌，但他在第二任期明确表示，他希望对他认定的政治对手展开真正的调查、指控和起诉——尤其是在他本人四次被起诉，且在唯一进入庭审的案件中被定罪之后。

    最引人注目的或许是特朗普9月份在社交媒体上发布的一条后来被删除的帖子，他直接点名邦迪，敦促她起诉前联邦调查局局长詹姆斯·科米、纽约州总检察长莱蒂夏·詹姆斯和加利福尼亚州参议员亚当·希夫。

    仅仅几天后，特朗普就解雇了一名拒绝配合的联邦检察官，科米随后被起诉。大约两周后，詹姆斯也被起诉。

    但这两项起诉的证据都站不住脚——这已经成为一种趋势，我们稍后会谈到——而且替换的联邦检察官被认定为非法任命。因此这些案件都不了了之。

    除了对另一位特朗普政敌约翰·博尔顿的起诉更为循规蹈矩之外（博尔顿也曾被拜登政府司法部调查），在过去五个半月里，没有其他人被起诉。

    但这并不是因为邦迪领导的部门没有尝试：

    • 司法部多次试图让大陪审团重新起诉詹姆斯，均以失败告终。

    • 它也未能让大陪审团以六名民主党国会议员呼吁军人不执行非法命令的言论为由起诉他们。

    • 司法部还调查了特朗普在9月帖子中提到的第三个人，希夫。

    • 对前中央情报局局长约翰·布伦南的调查最近有了进展。

    • 特朗普签署行政命令，要求调查他第一任期内的两名对手克里斯·克雷布斯和迈尔斯·泰勒。

    • 特朗普公开呼吁调查前总统比尔·克林顿与爱泼斯坦的关系，邦迪迅速表示同意。

    • 司法部对美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔的调查也引发了许多共和党人的公开抗议，而鲍威尔也是特朗普经常攻击的对象。

    最后一点很能说明问题。

    就在上周的听证会上，一名司法部律师被迫做出了惊人的承认：司法部没有任何针对鲍威尔的真正犯罪证据。

    大多数其他案件的已知证据同样极其薄弱。

    但邦迪和她的部门还是一次又一次地尽力尝试，因为特朗普要求他们这么做。

    这注定会让她形象受损。虽然特朗普通过对政敌提出站不住脚的阴谋论获得了巨大的政治优势，但这在法庭上是行不通的。

    更重要的是，整个事件实际上已经对政府适得其反。诚然，这给目标人物带来了高昂的代价，但也清楚地表明，特朗普被指控的罪行与他指控政敌的罪行之间毫无可比性。

    或许邦迪根本不可能劝阻特朗普。但这些案件几乎无一例外地对邦迪和她的部门不利。显然这也没能让特朗普满意。

    与爱泼斯坦文件事件类似，邦迪在司法部的遗产将包括至少自水门事件以来，总统个人政治与司法部事务之间最严重的墙塌事件。

    无论谁接任她的职位，都将面临取悦特朗普与恪守伦理和可行原则之间的同样矛盾。也许特朗普会找到一个更擅长应对这种局面的人。

    但如果过去能预示未来，他们也很难解开这个难题。

    Pam Bondi was destined to fail. But she also made it worse

    Analysis by

    Aaron Blake

    Attorney general may be the most impossible job in President Donald Trump’s Cabinet.

    Trump demands things that are not only ethically problematic, but also that reside somewhere in the space between highly difficult and impossible. Nobody has gotten the balance right. Jeff Sessions tried to be the institutionalist and quickly marginalized himself. William Barr then took some astoundingly politicized actions on Trump’s behalf, but then was unwilling to go quite as far as Trump demanded.

    Pam Bondi went even further than Barr in the service of bending the Justice Department politically for Trump. But after her firing Thursday, she wound up serving the shortest tenure for a confirmed attorney general in 60 years.

    Bondi was, in a lot of ways, destined to fail. But she also clearly made things worse for herself.

    And that’s especially the case when it comes to two sticking points between her and Trump: the Epstein files and Trump’s thus-far-fruitless retribution campaign.

    Epstein files

    The most damaging aspect of Bondi’s tenure was undoubtedly the Epstein files.

    Trump and his campaign did Bondi no favors by playing up Trump’s promise to release the files back in 2024. Then Trump seemed to suddenly turn against releasing them in mid-2025, and he’d go on to fight their release for months before Congress forced him to relent.

    That switch is tough to message to a highly invested public. Bondi made it actively worse.

    In February, she distributed “Epstein Files” binders to conservative influencers at the White House. Except the binders contained almost no new information. Some of the influencers balked at what amounted to a pretty substance-free photo op.

    She also made a series of dumbfounding claims about what was contained in the files, in ways that clearly came back to bite the administration.

    Survivors of Jeffrey Epstein stand as US Attorney General Pam Bondi is questioned during a House Judiciary Committee hearing on oversight of the Justice Department, on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, on February 11.

    Kent Nishimura/Reuters

    When asked about a rumored Epstein client list, for instance, she said it was “sitting on my desk right now,” creating great anticipation. She also said there were “tens of thousands of videos” of Epstein “with children or child porn.”

    But when the administration reversed course on its promises of transparency, it walked those claims back. And based on what’s been released so far, there’s still nothing to back them up.

    (Bondi claimed later that she hadn’t been specifically referring to a client list, but rather more Epstein documents in general.)

    In truth, Bondi’s claims were going to be problematic regardless of what came of the files. But she ramped up expectations about something that the administration later wanted to downplay.

    By the end of the Epstein saga, Bondi was effectively sidelined from even talking about the files — a job which often fell to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who is now temporarily leading the Justice Department. (And Blanche, it’s worth mentioning, has his own Epstein issues.)

    And after some almost comedically overwrought February testimony, in which she avoided even Republicans’ questions about the subject, she was greeted with a highly unusual bipartisan subpoena to revisit the issue with the House Oversight Committee later this month.

    White House chief of staff Susie Wiles summed it up in comments published in December by Vanity Fair. Bondi “completely whiffed” on the Epstein files, Wiles said, and there was apparently no use in pretending otherwise.

    Attorney General Pam Bondi and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche speak to the media following a closed-door briefing for members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, on the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein investigation and compliance with the Epstein Files Transparency Act on Capitol Hill in Washington, DC, on March 18.

    Targeting Trump’s enemies

    Arguably, Bondi had even higher hurdles to jump when it came to Trump’s retribution campaign.

    While Trump floated efforts to investigate his foes in his first term, he’s made clear in his second that he wants real probes, charges and prosecutions against his perceived political foes — particularly after he was personally indicted four times and convicted in the only case that went to trial.

    Perhaps most striking was a later-deleted Trump social media post from September that addressed Bondi by name and urged her to indict former FBI Director James Comey, New York Attorney General Letitia James and Sen. Adam Schiff of California.

    Just days later, Trump forced out a US attorney who resisted and Comey was indicted. About two weeks after that, James was indicted.

    But both indictments were based on flimsy evidence — this has become a trend, which we’ll get to — and the replacement US attorney was found to have been illegally appointed. So the cases fell apart.

    Save for a more by-the-book indictment of another Trump foe, John Bolton (who had also been investigated by the Biden Justice Department), nobody else has been indicted over the past five and a half months.

    But it hasn’t been for lack of trying by Bondi’s department:

    • The DOJ has repeatedly failed in its efforts to get grand juries to re-indict James.
    • It also failed to get a grand jury to indict six Democratic members of Congress over their comments urging members of the military not to obey illegal orders.
    • The DOJ has also probed the third person Trump mentioned in that September post, Schiff.
    • An investigation of former CIA director John Brennan has gained steam recently.
    • Trump wrote an executive order demanding investigations of two foes from his first term, Chris Krebs and Miles Taylor.
    • Trump publicly called for an investigation of former President Bill Clinton’s ties to Epstein, which Bondi quickly agreed to.
    • And the DOJ’s investigation of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, another figure Trump has frequently targeted, has caused even many Republicans to publicly cry foul.

    That last one is telling.

    At a hearing just last week, a Justice Department attorney was forced to make a remarkable admission: that the department had no real evidence of criminality against Powell.

    Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell gestures while addressing students at Harvard University, Monday, March 30, 2026, in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

    Charles Krupa/AP

    The known evidence in most of the other cases is, likewise, remarkably thin.

    But Bondi and her department have still given it the old college try, over and over again, because Trump demanded it.

    That was always bound to make her look bad. While Trump gets great political leverage out of lobbing thinly constructed conspiracy theories against his foes, that doesn’t work in a court of law.

    If anything, the whole thing has actually backfired on the administration. Yes, it has created costly headaches for those targeted, but it’s also made it pretty clear that there is no equivalence between what Trump was indicted for and what he accuses his foes of.

    Perhaps it was simply impossible for Bondi to dissuade Trump. But the cases have gone poorly for Bondi and her department, almost without fail. They apparently haven’t made Trump happy, either.

    And similar to the Epstein files, Bondi’s legacy at the DOJ will include the most significant breakdown of the wall between the president’s personal politics and department business since at least Watergate.

    Whoever succeeds her will inherit that same tension between pleasing Trump and doing what’s ethical and feasible. Perhaps Trump will find someone more adept at navigating that.

    But if past is prologue, they’ll be hard-pressed to solve this riddle.

    People walk in heavy rain near the Department of Justice building in Washington, DC, from which hangs a new banner depicting US President Donald Trump, on February 20.

  • 美国宣布对进口专利药及制药成分加征100%关税

    美国宣布对进口专利药及制药成分加征100%关税

    美国政府宣布对某些进口药品征收最高达100%的关税，但有几项关键的豁免条款。此举旨在施压制药商在美国生产更多药品。

    彭博社报道，美国白宫星期四（4月2日）发布公告说，美国总统特朗普当天签署一份文件，依据《1962年贸易扩展法》第232条款，美国将对进口专利药和制药成分加征100%的关税。

    这一措施同时提供豁免或下调关税的路径，旨在迫使制药企业与白宫就药品价格和产业回流等达成协议。

    这项新关税适用于与美国没有关税协议的国家生产，且生产公司未与美国政府签订最惠国定价协议的专利药品。

    根据白宫声明，某些大型公司生产药品的关税将在120天后生效，小型公司生产的药品将在180天后开始生效。

    声明称，与白宫达成协议的主要经济体，包括欧盟、韩国、日本、瑞士、列支敦士登的进口药品关税上限为15%。

    英国同意在未来10年内，将政府用于新药研发的支出占国内生产总值（GDP）的比例提高一倍。这是英国4月2日达成的另一项协议的结果，因此英国进口药品的关税税率将更低。

    白宫说，承诺在美国进行部分药品生产的公司，它们的进口药品将按20%的税率征收关税；如果这些公司与美国签订最惠国待遇协议，药品税率将降至零。这项免税政策将持续到2029年1月20日。

  • 能源市场在反复遭遇伊朗战争局势反复冲击后，开始不再理会特朗普


    2026-04-02 下午4:00 美东时间 / CNN
    作者：亚当·坎克里恩

    唐纳德·特朗普总统曾多次试图通过告诉投资者他们迫切想听的话来压制飙升的油价：伊朗战争即将结束。

    但在连续数周听到这番说辞后，尽管战事仍在持续，霍尔木兹海峡也没有重新开放的计划，投资者们越来越多地不再理会特朗普的言论。

    就在特朗普突然宣布与伊朗进行“富有成效”的会谈，给石油市场带来过早的乐观情绪近两周后，能源分析师和交易员表示，总统试图通过口头说服投资者压低油价的做法已经消耗了他的公信力，并让市场相信这场战争的经济后果只会愈发严重。

    “过去两周来，他一直在重复类似的说法，”政治风险咨询公司欧亚集团负责伊朗和能源领域的高级分析师格雷戈里·布鲁说道。“但他所说的内容毫无意义，因为战争还在继续，伊朗根本不吃这一套。”

    特朗普周三再次声称伊朗正在寻求停火后，连日来被各种假消息折腾得筋疲力尽的石油市场几乎没有任何反应。当晚，特朗普坚称战争“即将结束”，但他随后宣布将升级美国的轰炸行动，并将重新开放海峡的任务交给其他国家，这番言论很快盖过了之前的表态。

    此后油价飙升逾11%——这一剧烈波动可能会将汽油价格推高至每加仑4美元以上，加剧民众的燃油负担焦虑，而这种焦虑可能会在11月的国会中期选举中让特朗普和共和党失去议会控制权。

    在能源行业内部，官员们如今已开始准备迎接持续数月的高油价和高天然气价格，无论特朗普最终以何种方式、何时决定从战争中抽身。因为全球石油库存遭受的破坏已不可逆转，并在各大洲之间产生连锁反应。

    大约一个月前，伊朗报复性关闭霍尔木兹海峡已经引发了大规模经济冲击，但全球经济面临的压力才刚刚显现。中东主要产油设施为避免波斯湾内原油积压而削减了产量，如果海峡航运恢复正常，这些设施需要数月时间才能恢复产能。

    尽管特朗普在周三的黄金时段演讲中声称，美国拥有大量石油储备，因此不受此次危机的影响，但席卷全球的能源危机仍势必会让美国人在各类商品和服务上花费更多——从化肥到航班，再到塑料制品。即使特朗普立即从中东撤军，投资者也认为油价可能需要数月甚至数年才能回到战前水平。

    “我们的石油供应系统已经损失了大量原油，”撰写能源通讯《大宗商品背景》的石油市场研究员罗里·约翰斯顿说道。他估算，截至目前，这场冲突已造成约5亿桶原油的损失。

    “在任何情景下，我都看不到我们能在比开战前更健康的环境中结束这场战争，”他补充道。

    这一严峻的经济现实令特朗普的盟友们感到警觉，他们原本就对参战的政治风险感到担忧。这也促使他们不断寻求新的方法，以减轻油价上涨对美国的影响。

    一些特朗普的朋友和盟友意识到，总统仅凭口头言论打压市场的能力已经减弱，他们敦促特朗普尽快结束战争，将注意力重新放回中期选举前左右选民看法的国内议题上。

    尽管白宫坚称战斗一结束，汽油价格就会“暴跌”，但政府官员私下里的态度却有所不同。据参与相关讨论的一位人士透露，官员们已向行业代表施压，询问美国企业在未来几个月内是否有新的石油资源可以开发。但这些对话几乎没有带来任何有希望的进展。

    “毫无疑问，这目前已经产生了负面影响，”特朗普前经济顾问斯蒂芬·摩尔在谈及战争对美国经济的拖累时说道。“所以这场战争必须尽快结束。”

    白宫发言人泰勒·罗杰斯在一份声明中表示，特朗普的“能源主导议程让我们做好了应对当前局势的准备”。

    “总统明确表示，‘史诗怒火行动’已进入最后阶段，我们正在快速实现军事目标，”她说道。“与此同时，本届政府已采取多项重大行动，缓解短期 disruption（注：原文如此，应为“中断”）并稳定能源市场。”

    尽管如此，那些曾经对特朗普的每一句话都深信不疑的交易员和分析师们，如今已不太愿意相信他的乐观表态，因为他们看到了更多真实的现实影响。

    如果特朗普宣布胜利并在未来几周内撤离中东，却不重新开放海峡，他实际上将把全球五分之一的石油供应拱手让给伊朗。这将让伊朗政权获得比战前更稳固的财政基础，允许伊朗对使用海峡的油轮收取高额通行费，并决定哪些国家的船只可以通过。

    分析师预测，在这种情况下，油价预计将在战后很长一段时间内维持在每桶90美元以上，比冲突爆发前的价格高出约三分之一。

    但其他选项可能会带来更糟糕的结果。如果特朗普转而选择升级局势，兑现其轰炸伊朗能源基础设施的威胁，将立即加剧石油短缺，并引发广泛的报复担忧——这可能会彻底摧毁全球能源贸易，推高油价至前所未有的高位。

    无论哪种情况，能源专家都表示，油价将持续远高于今年早些时候美国享有的每桶60美元的水平——而在这个节骨眼上，特朗普的任何保证都不太可能改变这一局面。

    “我认为我们再也回不到战前的汽油价格了，至少今年不行，可能几年内都不行，”穆迪 Analytics 首席经济学家马克·赞迪说道。“随着每一天的过去，敌对行动持续的时间越长，造成的破坏就越严重。”

    除非突然出现外交突破，否则这些情景都无法保证霍尔木兹海峡会完全重新开放——而这一发展可能会彻底改变全球石油流动的格局。

    特朗普高级官员越来越多地承认，在可预见的未来，霍尔木兹海峡仍将处于伊朗控制之下，这可能为第二次武力夺取海峡的行动埋下伏笔，这将进一步增加中断风险，却无法更高程度地保证成功。

    特朗普周三晚间在言论中摇摆不定：一方面坚称战后海峡会“自然开放”，另一方面又敦促美国盟友动用武力负责重新开放海峡。

    “困难的部分已经完成，所以这应该很容易，”他曾如此说道。

    但这并未让行业官员感到多少宽慰，他们指出，就连特朗普自己的军方似乎也不同意这一说法；据参与相关讨论的人士透露，美国官员仍在评估，海峡对美国海军开始护航油轮来说仍然过于危险。

    “如果这场战争只打了三四天，那么油价会大幅上涨，然后会急剧下跌，”布鲁说道。“但我们已经远远超出了这个阶段，因为霍尔木兹海峡已经关闭了一个多月，而且近期重新开放海峡的可信度非常低。”

    Energy markets start tuning Trump out after repeated Iran war whiplash

    2026-04-02 4:00 PM ET / CNN

    By Adam Cancryn

    President Donald Trump has repeatedly sought to tamp down the surging price of oil by telling investors what they’re eager to hear: The war in Iran is almost over.

    But after hearing that message for weeks, with fighting ongoing and no plan for reopening the Strait of Hormuz, they’re increasingly tuning him out.

    Nearly two weeks after Trump’s sudden declaration of “productive” talks with Iran sent a premature jolt of optimism through the oil markets, energy analysts and traders say the president’s attempts to jawbone investors into lowering prices have cost him his credibility — and convinced them that the war’s economic consequences are only set to worsen.

    “He’s now been saying a version of the same thing for the last two weeks,” said Gregory Brew, a senior analyst on Iran and the energy sector at political risk firm Eurasia Group. “But what he’s talking about doesn’t matter, because he’s continuing the war and the Iranians aren’t buying it.”

    After Trump again claimed Wednesday that Iran was seeking a ceasefire, oil markets exhausted by days of head fakes barely reacted. And that night, Trump’s insistence that the war was “nearly complete” was quickly overshadowed by his vow to intensify the US’ bombing campaign and then leave it to other countries to try to reopen the strait.

    Oil prices have since surged more than 11% in response — a sharp move likely to push the cost of gas beyond the $4-per-gallon level and deepen the affordability concerns that threaten to cost Trump and Republicans control of Congress come November.

    Within the energy industry, officials are now preparing for several more months of elevated oil and gas prices regardless of how and when Trump eventually decides to withdraw from the war, as the damage to global stockpiles becomes irreversible and reverberates across continents.

    Iran’s retaliatory closure of the Strait of Hormuz roughly a month ago has already caused a massive economic shock, but the strain on economies around the world is just beginning. Key Middle East production facilities that cut output to avoid a pileup of oil in the Persian Gulf will need months to ramp back up if and when traffic through the strait returns to normal.

    And while Trump during Wednesday’s primetime address claimed the US is insulated from the fallout due to its own vast stores of oil, the energy crisis rippling through the rest of the world is still bound to make all manner of goods and services — from fertilizer to flights to plastic products — more expensive for Americans. Even if Trump pulled out of the Middle East immediately, investors believe it could take months or even years to see oil return to pre-war prices.

    Traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange during morning trading on Thursday.

    “We’ve lost huge amounts of oil from the system,” said Rory Johnston, an oil market researcher who writes the energy newsletter Commodity Context. He pegged the cost of the conflict so far at roughly a half-billion barrels of oil.

    “In no scenario do I see us exiting this war in a healthier environment than we began it,” he added.

    The stark economic reality has alarmed Trump allies who were already concerned about the political risks of going to war. It has prompted an ongoing search for fresh ways to blunt the impact on US prices.

    Some Trump friends and allies — aware of the president’s diminished ability to simply talk the markets down — have urged him to wrap up the war as soon as possible and shift his attention back to the domestic concerns shaping voters’ views ahead of the midterm elections.

    And despite the White House’s insistence that gas prices will “plummet” as soon as the fighting ends, administration officials have signaled differently in private. They’ve pressed industry representatives over whether US companies have any new sources of oil they can tap in the coming months, a person involved in the discussions said. Those conversations have yielded little in the way of promising leads.

    “It’s having a negative effect now for sure,” Stephen Moore, a former economic adviser to Trump, said of the war’s drag on the US economy. “So it’s got to get over with as quickly as possible.”

    In a statement, White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers said Trump’s “energy dominance agenda prepared us to meet this moment.”

    “The President made clear that the Operation Epic Fury is in its final stages and we are quickly achieving our military goals,” she said. “In the meantime, the Administration has taken several significant actions to mitigate short-term disruptions and stabilize the energy markets.”

    Still, among traders and analysts who once hung on Trump’s every word, there’s far less willingness to buy into his optimism now that they’re seeing more real-world impact.

    If Trump declares victory and leaves the Middle East in the next few weeks without reopening the strait, he will effectively cede one-fifth of the world’s oil supply to Iran. That would put the regime on even stronger financial footing than before, allowing Iran to charge oil tankers a hefty toll to use the strait — and determine which country’s shipments get through.

    Under that scenario, analysts project, oil prices are expected to remain above $90 per barrel well beyond the end of the war, or roughly one-third higher than where prices sat before the conflict began.

    But other options could yield even worse outcomes. If Trump instead chooses to escalate and follow through on his threats to bomb Iran’s energy infrastructure, it would immediately worsen the oil shortage and fan fears of widespread retaliation — which could effectively shatter the global energy trade and push prices to never-before-seen highs.

    Either way, energy experts said, oil prices are going to stay significantly higher than the $60-per-barrel level the US enjoyed earlier this year — and no amount of reassurances from Trump is likely to change that at this point.

    “I don’t think there’s any going back to pre-war gas prices, at least not this year and probably not for a couple years,” said Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics. “With each passing day, and the longer the hostilities continue, the more damage is done.”

    Barring a sudden diplomatic breakthrough, those scenarios also provide little assurance that the Strait of Hormuz will fully reopen — a development that could dramatically alter the way oil flows around the world.

    Top Trump officials have increasingly acknowledged that the strait will remain under Iranian control for the foreseeable future, potentially setting the stage for a second operation to seize it that would raise the odds of yet more disruption without any greater guarantee of success.

    Trump on Wednesday night careened between insisting that the strait would “open up naturally” after the war and urging US allies to take responsibility for reopening it by force.

    “The hard part is done, so it should be easy,” he said at one point.

    Yet that’s offered little comfort to industry officials who have noted that even Trump’s own military doesn’t appear to concur; US officials have continued to assess that the strait is far too dangerous for the US Navy to begin escorting tankers, according to people involved in the discussions.

    “Had the war been three or four days, then there would’ve been a sharp price increase and then a very sharp price fall,” said Brew. “But we’re way past that given that Hormuz has been shut now for over a month, and given that the credibility of Hormuz reopening any time soon is very suspect.”

    据熟悉该决定的消息人士向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露，国防部长皮特·黑格斯瑟已要求陆军参谋长兰迪·乔治将军辞职并立即退役。

    其中一位消息人士表示，黑格斯瑟希望该职位的人选能够贯彻特朗普总统和黑格斯瑟本人的陆军改革愿景。

    五角大楼首席发言人肖恩·帕内尔在一份声明中称，乔治“将立即卸任第41任陆军参谋长一职。陆军部对乔治将军为国家数十年的服役表示感谢。我们祝愿他退休后一切顺利。”

    一名国防部高级官员告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻：“我们对他的服役表示感谢，但现在是陆军领导层换人的时候了。”

    乔治曾于2021年至2022年拜登政府期间担任国防部长劳埃德·奥斯汀的高级军事助理，其军旅生涯长达数十年。作为一名职业步兵军官和西点军校毕业生，乔治最早参加过第一次海湾战争，以及近年的伊拉克和阿富汗战争。

    陆军参谋长通常任期为四年。乔治由乔·拜登总统提名，并于2023年经参议院确认就任该职位，按惯例本应任职至2027年。

    现任陆军副参谋长克里斯托弗·拉内夫将军此前曾担任黑格斯瑟的军事助手，将出任代理陆军参谋长。他曾于2022年至2023年担任陆军第82空降师指挥官。

    帕内尔表示，拉内夫是“一位历经战火考验的领导者，拥有数十年作战经验，完全得到黑格斯瑟部长的信任，将不折不扣地贯彻本届政府的愿景”。

    美国西点军校周四在社交媒体上发布了乔治的照片，称他在3月25日的访问中“与准备担任领导职务的学员们分享了基于经验的指导”。

    根据陆军官网的个人简介，乔治于1988年从西点军校获得步兵军官任命，曾部署参加沙漠盾牌行动、沙漠风暴行动、伊拉克自由行动和持久自由行动。在担任陆军参谋长之前，他于2022年至2023年担任陆军副参谋长。

    黑格斯瑟已罢免了十多名高级军官，包括参谋长联席会议主席C·Q·布朗将军、海军作战部长丽莎·弗朗凯蒂上将、空军副参谋长詹姆斯·斯莱夫将军以及国防情报局局长杰弗里·克鲁泽中将。

    此次罢免事件发生之前，黑格斯瑟在X平台发帖推翻了对上周在纳什维尔飞越基德·洛克住宅的机组人员的停职处分。在陆军宣布对涉事飞行员停职并启动行政审查后，黑格斯瑟推翻了陆军的决定，在其个人X账号上写道：“无需处罚。无需调查。继续前行，爱国者们。”

    其中一位消息人士称，黑格斯瑟要求乔治离职的决定与此次直升机事件无关。

    Hegseth ousts Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George

    Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has asked Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George to step down and take immediate retirement, sources familiar with the decision told CBS News.

    One of the sources said Hegseth wants someone in the role who will implement President Trump and Hegseth’s vision for the Army.

    Chief Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell said in a statement that George “will be retiring from his position as the 41st Chief of Staff of the Army effective immediately. The Department of War is grateful for General George’s decades of service to our nation. We wish him well in his retirement.”

    A senior Defense Department official told CBS News, “We are grateful for his service, but it was time for a leadership change in the Army.”

    George previously served as the senior military assistant to Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin from 2021 to 2022, during the Biden administration, after decades of service. A career infantry officer and West Point graduate, George first served in the first Gulf War and the more recent conflicts of Iraq and Afghanistan.

    The Army chief of staff typically serves a four-year term. George was nominated for the position by President Joe Biden and confirmed by the Senate in 2023, meaning he would typically have held the position until 2027.

    The current vice chief of staff of the Army, Gen. Christopher LaNeve, who was formerly Hegseth’s military aide, will be acting Army chief of staff. He previously served as the commanding general of the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division from 2022 to 2023.

    Parnell said LaNeve is “a battle-tested leader with decades of operational experience and is completely trusted by Secretary Hegseth to carry out the vision of this administration without fault.”

    The U.S. Military Academy at West Point posted photos on social media on Thursday of George, saying he “shared experience-driven guidance with cadets preparing to lead” during a visit on March 25.

    According to his biography on the Army’s website, George received his commission as an infantry officer from West Point in 1988 and deployed during Operation Desert Shield, Desert Storm, Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom. Before serving as Army chief of staff, he was vice chief of staff of the Army from 2022 to 2023.

    Hegseth has fired more than a dozen senior military officers, including Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. C.Q. Brown, Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti, the Air Force Vice Chief of Staff Gen. James Slife and the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse.

    The ouster follows Hegseth’s X post lifting the suspension of the aircrew that flew by Kid Rock’s house in Nashville last weekend. After the Army announced the suspension of the aviators involved and an administrative review, Hegseth overruled the Army, writing on his personal X account, “No punishment. No investigation. Carry on, patriots.”

    Hegseth’s decision to ask George to exit wasn’t related to the helicopter incident, one of the sources said.

    （路透社4月2日电）——科罗拉多州上诉法院周四推翻了对蒂娜·彼得斯的九年监禁判决，但维持了对她的定罪。这位前县书记员因篡改投票机设备被定罪，她当时一直在宣称2020年总统大选遭窃取，这一说法正是唐纳德·特朗普多次虚假鼓吹的论调。

    特朗普近期一直在为同为共和党人的彼得斯奔走呼号，向州法院和科罗拉多州州长、民主党人贾里德·波利斯施压，要求释放彼得斯，称她是政治犯。波利斯上月暗示，他可能会考虑对彼得斯予以赦免。

    由三名法官组成的上诉法院合议庭下令下级法院对彼得斯重新量刑，彼得斯目前仍在狱中。合议庭维持了对她全部七项罪名的定罪，其中包括试图影响公职人员和渎职等。

    在裁决书中，合议庭表示，下级法院法官马修·巴雷特不当基于彼得斯受保护的言论——即她在2024年庭审期间始终坚持的选举欺诈主张——对其量刑。合议庭援引了巴雷特在庭审期间的多处发言，包括称彼得斯是“骗子”，一直在兜售“一次次被证明是垃圾的蛇油”。

    “初审法院就彼得斯对2020年选举欺诈存在性的信念所发表的言论，超出了对其量刑的相关考量范畴。她的罪行并非其对选举欺诈存在的信念——无论初审法院认为这一信念多么错误，而是她为收集所谓欺诈证据而采取的欺骗性行动，”合议庭写道。

    合议庭并未暗示彼得斯应被判处何种刑罚。

    彼得斯于2022年被起诉，此前她所在办公室发生选举安全违规事件，导致投票设备密码被发布在一个右翼博客上。她否认有任何不当行为。

    彼得斯的两名律师彼得·蒂金和约翰·凯斯未立即回应置评请求。

    特朗普去年12月赦免了彼得斯，此举被认为具有象征意义，因为彼得斯并未被联邦羁押。科罗拉多州上诉法院合议庭在裁决书中写道，总统的联邦赦免权并不适用于州级犯罪。

    Appeals panel orders resentencing of ex‑Colorado clerk over voting machines

    April 2 (Reuters) – A Colorado appeals court on Thursday overturned the nine-year prison sentence, but not the conviction, given to Tina Peters, a former county clerk convicted of ​tampering with voting machines in her pursuit of claims the 2020 presidential election ‌had been stolen from Donald Trump, as Trump repeatedly and falsely claimed.

    Trump has taken up the case of Peters, a fellow Republican, in recent months and put pressure on state courts and Colorado Governor Jared ​Polis, a Democrat, to free her, saying she is a political prisoner. Polis ​last month signaled he may be willing to consider clemency for Peters.

    A ⁠three-judge appeals court panel ordered a lower court to resentence Peters, who remains jailed. ​The panel upheld her conviction on all seven counts, which include attempts to influence a ​public servant and violation of duty, among others.

    In its ruling, the panel said the lower court judge Matthew Barrett improperly punished Peters based on her protected speech – her claims of election fraud, which she ​maintained throughout her 2024 trial. The panel cited several things Barrett said at trial, ​including calling Peters a “charlatan” who continued to peddle “snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and ‌time ⁠again.”

    “The trial court’s comments about Peters’s belief in the existence of 2020 election fraud went beyond relevant considerations for her sentencing. Her offense was not her belief, however misguided the trial court deemed it to be, in the existence of such election fraud; it ​was her deceitful actions ​in her attempt to ⁠gather evidence of such fraud,” the panel wrote.

    The panel gave no suggestion of what Peters’ sentence should be.

    Peters was indicted in 2022 following ​an election security breach at her office that led to voting ​equipment passwords ⁠being posted on a right-wing blog. She denied wrongdoing.

    Two attorneys for Peters, Peter Ticktin and John Case, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

    Trump pardoned Peters in December in a ⁠move that ​was considered symbolic since Peters is not in ​federal custody. The Colorado appeals court panel, in its ruling, wrote that a president’s federal pardon powers do not ​reach state offenses.

    美国总统特朗普宣布解除司法部长邦迪职务，曾担任特朗普多起案件辩护律师的副司法部长布兰奇将暂代司法部长一职。

    路透社报道，邦迪成为特朗普第二个总统任期内第二名被解职的内阁成员。

    特朗普星期四（4月2日）在社交媒体Truth Social宣布此消息，并赞扬邦迪是“伟大的美国爱国者和忠诚的朋友”，称她主导了一场“大规模打击犯罪”行动。

    特朗普说，邦迪将加入私营企业，但没有透露详情。

    邦迪也在社媒发文，称“能够在特朗普总统为保障美国安全而采取历史性且非常成功的努力中扮演领导角色”，是她“毕生荣幸”。她说，将下来一个月把工作交接给布兰奇。

    美国媒体报道，特朗普对邦迪的不满已持续数月。特朗普认为她对爱泼斯坦档案处置不力、对打击他的政治对手不够强硬。

    3月17日，众议院监督与政府改革委员会向邦迪发出传票，要求她就爱泼斯坦案接受国会闭门质询。根据传票要求，邦迪定于4月14日接受委员会质询。此前，邦迪已出席过相关听证会，但未能消除国会两党多名议员对司法部的质疑与批评。

    在邦迪之前，饱受争议的国土安全部长诺姆于3月5日被特朗普撤换。特朗普提名参议员马林接替诺姆职务，参议院已投票确认马林的提名。

    司法部长提名也须参议院确认。目前共和党议员在参议院占据多数席位。

    哥伦比亚广播公司新闻独家获悉，一款首创减肥药将成为特朗普总统的价格对比平台“特朗普Rx（Trump Rx）”上新增的最新药品。

    Foundayo是一款GLP-1类药物，属于首创的无需空腹服用的减肥药，为厌恶打针的人群扩大了用药可及性。

    一名白宫官员表示，本届政府于今年2月推出的平价药品对比网站TrumpRx将为无保险美国人提供Foundayo的优惠券，首剂售价低至149美元。

    续药价格为199美元，后续处方价格为299美元。

    这款减肥药也将在礼来公司的直接面向消费者平台“礼来直达（Lilly Direct）”以相近价格销售。

    尽管价格相同，但一名白宫官员告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，他们认为TrumpRx比药企的平台覆盖范围更广，是消费者对比市场上所有GLP-1类药物的“一站式商店”。

    医保参保美国人的购药成本约为50美元，商业保险参保者约为25美元。

    一名白宫官员告诉哥伦比亚广播公司新闻，这款药物最快将于周四在TrumpRx平台上架。

    Foundayo同时也是美国食品药品监督管理局（FDA）优先审评券计划下获批的首款新药。该计划于去年6月公布，旨在将药品审评时间从10至12个月缩短至仅两个月。

    FDA在礼来公司提交申请仅50天后就批准了这款药物。该公司计划于4月6日开始发货。

    A first-of-its-kind weight loss pill will become the latest drug to be offered on President Trump’s cost comparison platform “Trump Rx,” CBS News exclusively learned.

    Foundayo, a GLP-1 drug, is a first-of-its-kind weight loss pill that doesn’t need to be taken on an empty stomach, expanding access for those who are needle averse.

    A White House official says TrumpRx, the low-cost pharmaceutical comparison website launched by the administration in February, will provide coupons for Foundayo to Americans without insurance starting at $149 for the first dose.

    The refills will be marked at $199 and future prescriptions will be $299.

    The pill will also be sold at a similar price on Eli Lilly’s direct to consumer platform “Lilly Direct.”

    Though the prices are the same, a White House official tells CBS news they believe TrumpRx has a greater reach than the drugmaker’s platform and serves as a “one stop shop” for consumers to evaluate all GLP-1s on the market.

    The cost for Americans on Medicare will be around $50 and Americans on private insurance for about $25.

    A White House official told CBS News that the pill could be featured on TrumpRx as soon as Thursday.

    Foundayo is also the first new drug approved under the FDA’s priority voucher program. The program, which was announced last June, was intended to shorten the time it takes to review drugs from 10 to 12 months down to just two months.

    The FDA approved the Eli Lilly drug just 50 days after filing. The company plans to start shipping the pill on April 6.

    据五角大楼一名官员向CNN透露，国防部长皮特·黑格斯已要求美国陆军参谋长兰迪·乔治将军立即退役。

    五角大楼首席发言人肖恩·帕内尔于周四证实了乔治的退役消息，他在X平台上写道：“兰迪·A·乔治将军将立即辞去第41任美国陆军参谋长职务。美国战争部对乔治将军为国家数十年的服役表示感谢。”

    哥伦比亚广播公司（CBS）新闻率先报道了乔治被解职的消息。一名国防部官员证实了该报道的真实性。

    黑格斯做出这一决定的前一天，总统唐纳德·特朗普就伊朗战争发表全国讲话。特朗普在讲话中暗示美国将加强对伊朗的打击，此前他曾暗示美国可能在两到三周内结束这场战争。

    作为陆军参谋长，乔治一直与陆军部长丹·德里斯科尔密切合作。德里斯科尔是白宫的高级官员，黑格斯认为他是威胁，两人之间有时关系紧张。黑格斯在任职期间已解职多名其他高级军官。

    乔治是一名职业步兵军官，1988年从美国西点军校毕业后入伍。他自2023年9月起担任陆军参谋长；此前他指挥刘易斯-麦科德联合基地的第1军，之后在拜登政府期间担任国防部长劳埃德·奥斯汀的高级军事助理。

    尽管国防部长高级军事助理一职通常被认为是非政治化的，是授予最优秀军官的职位，但乔治与奥斯汀的密切关系被黑格斯及其圈子视为反对他的理由。

    当黑格斯提名他的高级军事助理克里斯·拉内夫将军担任陆军副参谋长时，军事和五角大楼官员中曾有猜测称，拉内夫最终将接替乔治出任陆军参谋长。作为副参谋长，拉内夫很可能在乔治离职后担任代理参谋长。

    在为黑格斯工作之前，拉内夫于1990年从亚利桑那大学后备军官训练团毕业后入伍，曾担任韩国第8集团军司令，此前他曾短暂担任北卡罗来纳州布拉格堡第82空降师师长。

    指挥第82空降师通常为期两年，但拉内夫任职不到两年就离开了该职位，转而担任美国陆军部队司令部指挥官的特别助理，之后才前往韩国，根据他的官方传记显示。

    拉内夫在特朗普就职后数小时内就引起了特朗普的注意，当时他与驻扎在韩国的部队一同通过视频连线参加了总统就职舞会。

    “先生，我代表我指挥下的勇敢男女军人，以及驻韩联合部队的数千名敬业军人，祝贺您当选美国第47任总统，”拉内夫在视频通话中说道。“欢迎回来，总统先生。”

    特朗普称赞拉内夫说：“这个人是不是像从中央 casting 选出来的一样？”

    “他们不会跟你耍花招。这很好，”特朗普补充道，根据活动的官方 transcript，“我喜欢这样。没人会跟那个人耍花招。”

    Hegseth tells US Army chief of staff to step down immediately

    By Haley Britzky, Natasha Bertrand

    Updated Apr 2, 2026, 6:18 PM ET

    US Army Chief of Staff Gen. Randy George has been told to retire immediately by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, a Pentagon official told CNN.

    Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell confirmed George’s retirement Thursday, writing on X, “General Randy A. George will be retiring from his position as the 41st Chief of Staff of the Army effective immediately. The Department of War is grateful for General George’s decades of service to our nation.”

    CBS News first reported George’s ousting. A Defense Department official confirmed the accuracy of CBS News’ report.

    Hegseth’s move comes a day after President Donald Trump’s address to the nation on the Iran war. In the speech, Trump signaled the US will intensify strikes on Iran, after earlier suggesting the US could be done with the war within two to three weeks.

    As the Army Chief, George has worked closely with Army Secretary Dan Driscoll — a senior official close to the White House whom Hegseth has perceived as a threat and had a contentious relationship with at times. Hegseth has ousted a number of other senior military officers during his tenure.

    George, a career infantry officer, commissioned out of the US Military Academy at West Point in 1988. He has served as the chief of staff since September 2023; he previously commanded I Corps at Joint Base Lewis-McChord, and went on to serve as the senior military assistant to Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin during the Biden administration.

    While the job of senior military assistant to the defense secretary is often one considered to be apolitical and a role given to the best of the best of military officers, George’s proximity to Austin has been considered a mark against him to Hegseth and his circle.

    There was speculation among military and Pentagon officials when Hegseth nominated his senior military assistant, Gen. Chris LaNeve, to be the Army vice chief of staff, that he would ultimately take over for George. As the vice chief, LaNeve will likely step in as the acting chief of staff in George’s absence.

    Before working for Hegseth, LaNeve — who has served since 1990 after commissioning from the University of Arizona ROTC — was the commanding general of 8th Army in South Korea, after a brief tenure as commander of the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, North Carolina.

    Commanding the 82nd Airborne Division is typically a two-year job, though LaNeve left the role less than two years in and moved to be a special assistant to the commander of US Army Forces Command, before moving to South Korea, according to his official biography.

    LaNeve got Trump’s attention in the hours after his inauguration, when LaNeve called into the Commander in Chief’s Ball with his troops from South Korea.

    “Sir, on behalf of the brave men and women who serve under my command and the thousands of dedicated service members that are part of the joint team in Korea, congratulations on your victory as the 47th President of the United States,” LaNeve said on a video call. “Welcome back, Mr. President.”

    Trump praised LaNeve, saying, “Is this man central casting or what?”

    “They’re not going to play games with you. That’s good,” Trump added, according to an official transcript of the event. “I like to see that. Nobody is playing games with that man.”

    美国总统特朗普星期四（4月2日）在社交媒体发布视频，称空袭炸毁伊朗“最大桥梁”，施压伊朗与美国“达成协议”。伊朗外交部长阿拉格齐回应说，破坏民用设施，不会迫使伊朗投降。

    新华社引述伊朗媒体报道，被称为中东最高桥梁、伊朗标志性工程杰作的卡拉季市（Karaj）贝伊克公路桥（B1 Bridge），2日遭美国和以色列空袭受损。空袭造成八名平民死亡，另有95人受伤。相关路段已全面封闭。

    彭博社报道，特朗普在Truth Social发布空袭视频并配文道： “伊朗最大的桥梁坍塌了，再也无法使用——还有更多灾难即将发生！”

    特朗普还以全大写英文字母写道：“伊朗是时候达成协议，以免后悔莫及，把一个原本能成为伟大国家的希望给彻底毁掉！”

    阿拉格齐在社媒发文回应说，破坏民用设施，包括未完工的桥梁，并不能迫使伊朗投降。

    阿拉格齐指这种行径只能表明“处于混乱状态的敌人”的失败和士气崩溃。他强调，每一座被毁的桥梁和建筑都会得到重建，且“更加坚固”，而“美国的地位受损”这一既成事实将不可逆转。

    唐纳德·特朗普总统周四宣布，德黑兰附近的伊朗最大桥梁在据称遭美军空袭后以震撼画面倒塌，他同时敦促伊朗政权在紧张局势进一步升级前达成协议。

    这座B1高速公路大桥是伊朗首都德黑兰与西部城市卡拉季之间的关键交通枢纽，被认为是中东地区最高的桥梁，今年早些时候才刚刚竣工启用。

    据伊朗国际电视台报道，伊朗国家电视台 reportedly 发出了潜在报复警告，称伊朗军方已将美国盟友中东国家的多座桥梁列为打击目标。

    特朗普在社交媒体上发布了一段视频，展示了大桥疑似坍塌后冒出的大量浓烟和残骸。

    “伊朗最大大桥轰然倒塌，再也无法使用——更多事态后续即将公布！现在是伊朗悬崖勒马、达成协议的时候了，否则这个本可以成为伟大国家的地方将一无所有！”特朗普在Truth Social的帖子中写道。

    据中东媒体i24NEWS援引消息人士的话报道，此次针对大桥的袭击旨在切断伊朗打击单位向美军和以色列部队运送无人机和导弹的补给线。

    据法尔斯新闻社报道，伊朗国家电视台还称，大桥在大约一小时内遭到两次袭击，造成平民伤亡。

    “几分钟前，美国-犹太复国主义敌人再次袭击了卡拉季的B1大桥，”广播中说道，并指出第一次袭击造成两名平民死亡。

    法尔斯新闻社还报道称，卡拉季的其他地区也遭到了袭击。

    该媒体报道称，伊朗正计划在本国工程师和专家的帮助下重建这座大桥。

    作为报复，伊朗伊斯兰革命卫队已将中东美国盟友国家的多座桥梁列为潜在打击目标，其中包括科威特、沙特阿拉伯、巴林、阿布扎比和约旦-西岸地区的基础设施。

    Iran’s biggest bridge near Tehran has crashed down in a stunning scene captured on camera following reports of U.S. airstrikes, President Donald Trump announced Thursday, as he pressed the regime to make a deal before tensions escalate further.

    The B1 highway bridge, a key link between Iran’s capital and the western city of Karaj, is considered the tallest in the Middle East and was only inaugurated earlier this year.

    Iranian state TV reportedly warned of potential retaliation, claiming the state’s military has identified multiple bridges in American-allied Middle East nations as targets, according to Iran International.

    Trump posted a video on social media capturing a massive plume of smoke and debris after the bridge’s apparent collapse.

    “The biggest bridge in Iran comes tumbling down, never to be used again — Much more to follow! IT IS TIME FOR IRAN TO MAKE A DEAL BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE, AND THERE IS NOTHING LEFT OF WHAT STILL COULD BECOME A GREAT COUNTRY!” Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

    The strike on the bridge was aimed at cutting drone and missile supply lines to Iranian firing units targeting U.S. and Israeli forces, Middle East outlet i24NEWS reported, citing sources.

    Iranian state TV also said the bridge was hit twice, roughly an hour apart, resulting in civilian casualties, Fars News reported.

    “A few minutes ago, the American-Zionist enemy once again targeted the B1 bridge in Karaj,” the broadcast said, noting that the first strike killed two civilians.

    Fars News also reported that other areas of Karaj were struck.

    The outlet reported that Iran is considering plans to rebuild the bridge with the help of its engineers and experts.

    In retaliation, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has reportedly identified several bridges in American-allied nations across the Middle East as potential targets, including infrastructure in Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Abu Dhabi and the Jordan-West Bank region.
