    美国富豪们不惜动用自己的数十亿美元身家参选国会,却往往难以如愿。

    最近的一例发生在本周二的马里兰州:亿万富翁、前国会众议员戴维·特龙创下2500万美元纪录的复出竞选最终在民主党初选中落败。特龙通过联合创办全国性酒类零售商积累了巨额财富,他是国会竞选中最出手阔绰的自掏腰包竞选者之一。十年来,他在六场竞选中共投入1.34亿美元,三度当选众议院议员,却在另外三场败选竞选中花费了1.01亿美元。

    Wealthy Americans have spent hundreds of millions from their fortunes in their quests to join Congress. It usually doesn’t pay off.

    The most recent example came Tuesday in Maryland, when billionaire and former congressman David Trone’s record-breaking $25 million comeback bid ended in defeat in the Democratic primary. Trone, who amassed his fortune by co-founding a national alcohol retailer, has been one of the most prolific self-funders of congressional campaigns. He spent $134 million across six races over the course of a decade, winning three terms in the House but spending $101 million on contests he lost.

  • 特朗普与共和党参议员举行激烈交锋会议,期间曾勒令比尔·卡西迪坐下

    据直接了解此次会议的消息人士透露,周三特朗普总统与共和党参议员的会面气氛紧张激烈,期间他曾严厉勒令路易斯安那州参议员比尔·卡西迪坐下,当时双方就《战争权力决议》相关问题产生了争执。

    卡西迪当时正试图回应总统,他告诉总统应该坐下——但卡西迪后来缓和了态度,表示自己会就座,但并非按照特朗普的要求。

    “他提高了嗓门。我也动了怒。这并不妥当。我骨子里有爱尔兰人的火爆脾气,但我当时也跟着他的语气和音量回敬了回去,”卡西迪在会后对记者说道。

    今年早些时候,特朗普曾在路易斯安那州共和党参议院初选中支持众议员朱莉娅·莱特洛。卡西迪未能进入 runoff 选举,其政治生涯大概率就此终结,这一点也在特朗普的讲话中被提及。

    “我不会为对抗总统而道歉,”卡西迪说,“我是在为美国民众挺身而出,哪怕我的对话对象是总统。”

    这场持续了一个多小时的会议主要围绕伊朗战争以及《战争权力决议》展开。周二,参议院通过了由民主党牵头的决议,旨在阻止总统下令对伊朗采取进一步军事行动。四名共和党议员投票支持这项并行决议,该决议仅具有象征意义,不具备法律效力。

    一位直接了解会议情况的消息人士向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻透露,特朗普对包括卡西迪在内的共和党议员表达了不满,这些议员曾与民主党人合作推动该决议。

    总统还表达了对阿拉斯加州参议员丽莎·穆尔科斯基的反感。“他刚说完这话,她就走进来了,场面十分尴尬,”该消息人士说道。

    穆尔科斯基迟到后告诉记者,她此前已安排了其他活动。

    离开午餐会时,共和党参议员将此次会议描述为一场“热烈”且“充满活力”的会面。阿拉巴马州参议员汤米·塔伯维尔对记者表示,会议氛围就像“中场休息时的谈话”。北达科他州参议员凯文·克拉默称,总统谈到了支持伊朗决议的共和党人对他的“暗中破坏”,并“表达了些许失望”。

    “他并没有我可能会有的那么生气,”克拉默说道。

    “我认为我们这场会议办得非常棒。我们为共和党感到骄傲。我们支持多数党领袖约翰·图恩,”特朗普说道,“我们确实喜欢房间里的每一个人。我不喜欢其中几个人,但这没什么。我想你们都知道他们是谁。”

    在抵达国会山前不久,特朗普突然取消了签署两党住房法案的计划。他在社交媒体上写道,只有在国会通过《拯救美国法案》后,他才会签署该住房法案。这项总统的核心提案包含多项条款,其中一项要求选民在登记投票时提供公民身份证明。参议院共和党领袖多次表示,该法案在参议院缺乏足够的支持票数以通过。

    总统告诉参议员们,共和党必须在11月的选举中获胜,需要共和党选民出来投票。特朗普称,如果不通过《拯救美国法案》,共和党选民就不会参与投票。

    总统提议废除议事阻挠规则以推动该法案通过,这将使法案通过所需的票数从60票降至简单多数。截至目前,参议院共和党领导层一直抵制特朗普废除议事阻挠规则的呼吁,而且即便这么做也不能确保法案通过,因为在微弱多数的共和党参议员中,仍有少数人持反对态度。

    一位了解会议情况的消息人士表示,特朗普离开时留下的最后一句话是,必须推进《拯救美国法案》。

    “总统最后呼吁大家团结,”得克萨斯州参议员约翰·科宁说道,他也在共和党初选中输给了特朗普支持的候选人。“但他前一个小时谈论的事情,完全算不上能促进团结。”

    Trump has testy meeting with GOP senators, telling Cassidy at one point to sit down

    2026-06-24 3:57 PM EDT / CBS News

    By Alan He

    President Trump’s meeting with Republican senators on Wednesday turned testy, and at one point, he sternly told Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy to sit down, after questions arose about the War Powers Resolution, according to sources directly familiar with the meeting.

    Cassidy had been trying to respond to the president, telling the president he should sit down — but Cassidy later relented, saying he would be seated, but not at Mr. Trump’s behest.

    “He raised his voice. I lost my temper. That’s not appropriate. It’s the Irish in me, but I again matched his tone and his volume,” Cassidy told reporters after the meeting.

    Earlier this year, Mr. Trump supported Rep. Julia Letlow in the Louisiana Republican Senate primary. Cassidy did not advance to the runoff, likely ending his political career, a point Mr. Trump highlighted in his remarks.

    “I make no apologies for standing up to the president,” Cassidy said. “I am sticking up for the American people, even if I’m speaking to the president.”

    The more-than-hourlong meeting with Mr. Trump focused mostly on the Iran war and the War Powers Resolution. On Tuesday, the Senate approved a Democrat-led resolution to keep the president from ordering further military action in Iran. Four Republicans voted in favor of the concurrent resolution, which is symbolic and does not carry the force of law.

    A source directly familiar with the meeting told CBS News Mr. Trump expressed his discontent with Republicans, including Cassidy, who had worked with the Democrats on the resolution.

    The president also shared his disdain for Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski. “It was very awkward when she walked in right after he said that,” the source said.

    Murkowski arrived at the meeting late, telling reporters that she had a previously scheduled event.

    Leaving the lunch, GOP senators described a “lively” and “spirited” meeting. Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama told reporters the tone was “half-time talk.” Sen. Kevin Cramer of North Dakota said the president talked about being undermined by the Republicans who supported the Iran resolution and “expressed some disappointment.”

    “He wasn’t as upset as I probably would have been about it,” Cramer said.

    “I think we had a really great meeting. We’re very proud of the party. We like Majority Leader John Thune,” Mr. Trump said. “We like everybody really in the room. I don’t like a few people, but that’s okay. I think you know who they are.”

    Shortly before arriving on Capitol Hill, the president abruptly canceled plans to sign a bipartisan housing bill. Mr. Trump wrote on social media that he would only sign it once Congress passed the SAVE America Act, a pet project of the president which, among other provisions, would require voters to show proof of citizenship when they register. Senate GOP leaders have repeatedly said the bill does not have enough support in the upper chamber to pass.

    The president told senators that Republicans must win in November, and need Republican voters to show up. Without passing the Save America Act, the president said, they won’t show up.

    The president suggested eliminating the filibuster in order to pass it, which would lower the threshold for passage from 60 votes to a simple majority. Republican Senate leadership has so far resisted Mr. Trump’s entreaties to do away with the filibuster, and doing so would not guarantee its passage, since a handful of Senate Republicans in the slim GOP majority remain opposed.

    A source familiar with the meeting said Mr. Trump’s parting message as he left was that the SAVE America Act has to get done.

    “The president closed by preaching unity,” said Texas Sen. John Cornyn, who also lost his Republican primary to a Trump-backed candidate. “But he spent the prior hour talking about things which were not exactly unifying.”

  • 特朗普在住房法案上的闹剧看起来是个极其糟糕的主意


    2026-06-24T18:16:24.026Z / https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/24/politics/trump-housing-bill-stunt

    唐纳德·特朗普总统是一位众所周知的立法纵火者。他经常在最后一刻抛出出人意料的举动,让国会领袖们焦头烂额——尤其是在他自己的政党内部。

    但很少有特朗普的最后时刻出人意料之举,会像他周三上午抛出的那样显得考虑不周。

    他突然取消了原计划的住房负担能力法案签署仪式,该法案已在两院以压倒性的两党多数票通过。

    他还增加了一个新的转折,称国会通过“拯救美国法案”之前,他不会签署该法案。一些共和党人将这项与选举相关的立法视为关乎存亡的大事,但它似乎没有任何可行的推进路径。

    特朗普不仅改变了主意;他是在庆祝该法案签署的活动已经开始之际做出这一决定的。就在他反悔的时候,知名共和党人还在新闻发布会上称赞该法案的优点,并吹捧特朗普对它的支持。

    一天前,白宫新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特还称该法案是“美国历史上最重要的住房负担能力立法之一”。几小时前,特朗普的中期选举政治顾问还称其为“标志性承诺”。

    所以简单回顾一下:截至周三,特朗普将“美国历史上最重要的住房负担能力立法之一”作为人质,用它作为要挟,以换取他真正想要的法案。

    在11月的中期选举不到五个月之际,这看起来是个极其糟糕的主意。

    事实上,特朗普和共和党面临的最大政治问题仍然是通胀、负担能力和经济,而他的这个策略似乎恰好是在强化这些不利因素。

    特朗普在负担能力和经济问题上的糟糕民调数字

    在2月伊朗战争爆发前,特朗普在这些问题上的民调数字就已经糟糕,自那以后更是显著恶化。

    在最近的福克斯新闻(68%)、哥伦比亚广播公司新闻(66%)和美联社-NORC民调(66%)中,他的经济问题不支持率约为三分之二。

    与此同时,他在通胀问题上的不支持率更高——在哥伦比亚广播公司(73%)、Strength in Numbers-Verasight(71%)和路透社-Ipsos(69%)的民调中,该数字约为70%。

    这样的民调数字十分罕见。通常来说,七成美国人很少会在任何事情上达成共识。

    而特朗普最大的问题之一不仅在于民众认为经济糟糕,还在于他们认为他实际上让情况变得更糟。在战争爆发前,民众认为他对该问题重视不足。现在他们认为他在加剧问题。

    战争爆发前几天进行的哥伦比亚广播公司民调显示,75%的美国人表示特朗普政府在降低物价方面“关注不够”。一个月后的CNN民调显示,65%的人表示特朗普在努力降低日常商品价格方面“做得还不够”。

    到了5月,CNN民调显示65%的美国人表示特朗普的政策“恶化了经济状况”,77%的人表示这些政策“推高了所在社区的生活成本”。

    特朗普不仅通过全球关税和伊朗战争将不确定的经济状况归咎于自身,他似乎还对处理负担能力问题表现得近乎不屑。他称这个问题是“骗局”,并在集会和其他场合明确表示,他更愿意关注其他事情。他不断发表不合时宜的言论,表明他并不重视这个问题以及美国人的经济困境。

    总而言之,特朗普周三的举动有可能进一步加剧对其政治不利的舆论。他正在强化自己的形象:一个并不真正重视甚至不愿承认美国人最关切问题的人。

    一些共和党人和特朗普的盟友可能会告诉自己,“拯救美国法案”值得他采取这样的策略;他们会辩称,通过这项要求提供公民身份证明才能登记投票等条款的立法至关重要。

    但不仅几乎没有证据表明无证移民存在非法投票行为,而且有充分理由相信该法案实际上可能会阻止合法投票;这项立法根本不是美国民众热切呼吁的。

    共和党人援引的民调显示,绝大多数美国人支持选民身份证制度,并强烈支持登记投票时提供公民身份证明。这些问题确实在民调中获得了支持。3月的哥伦比亚广播公司民调显示,66%的美国人支持后者。

    但除此之外,美国人对“拯救美国法案”并没有强烈的好感。

    同一项民调显示,只有28%的美国人支持这项前身为“拯救法案”的立法,而31%的人反对。

    仅有43%的人认为该立法会阻止的非法投票多于其阻止的合法投票。

    除此之外,特朗普现在甚至似乎都没有给自己争取到真正的筹码。

    通过“拯救美国法案”可能需要参议院共和党人废除阻挠议事规则及其60票门槛——无论是针对这项法案还是其他所有法案——但这一点没有足够多的共和党人愿意这么做,许多共和党人还明确反对。

    而在此之前这就不太可能实现,现在更是难上加难:特朗普已经在初选中罢免了两名参议员——得克萨斯州的约翰·康恩和路易斯安那州的比尔·卡西迪,这已经疏远了参议院共和党人。

    这次威胁并没有改变这一局面,甚至算不上一张好牌。因为即使总统不签署该法案,10天后法案仍将自动生效。要真正阻止它,他必须行使否决权。

    而如果他这么做,他将面临被推翻否决权的风险,这需要两院三分之二的票数支持。该法案已经在众议院获得92%的赞成票,在参议院获得94%的赞成票。

    事实上,在当今时代,这样的多数票令人震惊。国会除了通过必须立法(如维持政府运转)之外,很少能实质性地办成任何事。最近就连这类法案都难以通过。

    而现在国会已经就一项公众高度关切的问题采取了重要行动——这是一代人以来规模最大的住房负担能力法案——特朗普却威胁要全盘推翻,除非他得到自己想要的东西。

    最有可能的结果是总统最终让步。他之前也曾对“拯救美国法案”发出过类似威胁,包括曾威胁在该法案通过前不再签署任何更多立法。

    但就目前而言,他的这场闹剧巩固了对他自己和 fellow 共和党人在中期选举前非常不利的舆论环境。

    Trump’s stunt on the housing bill seems like a very bad idea

    2026-06-24T18:16:24.026Z / https://www.cnn.com/2026/06/24/politics/trump-housing-bill-stunt

    President Donald Trump is a familiar legislative arsonist. He’ll often throw curveballs at the last minute that give congressional leaders fits — especially in his own party.

    But rarely has one of Trump’s late curveballs seemed as ill-advised as the one he threw Wednesday morning.

    He suddenly canceled his planned signing of a housing affordability bill that had passed in both chambers with overwhelming bipartisan majorities.

    And he added a new twist, saying he wouldn’t sign it until Congress passed the “SAVE America Act.” Some Republicans have cast that election-related legislation as existential, but it doesn’t appear to have any viable path forward.

    And Trump didn’t just change his mind; he did so even as the festivities celebrating the housing bill signing had begun. Prominent Republicans were at a press conference espousing the virtues of the bill and touting Trump’s support for it just as he pulled back.

    A day earlier, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt had called the bill “one of the most significant pieces of housing affordability legislation in American history.” Hours earlier, Trump’s political adviser for the midterms called it a “signature commitment.”

    So just to recap: As of Wednesday, Trump was holding hostage “one of the most significant pieces of housing affordability legislation” ever, using it as leverage for a bill he really wants.

    That seems like a very bad idea less than five months before November’s elections.

    In fact, Trump’s and the GOP’s biggest political problems remain inflation, affordability and the economy, and his gambit seems almost tailor-made to reinforce those liabilities.

    Trump’s bad numbers on affordability and the economy

    Trump’s numbers on these issues were bad before the Iran war began in February, and they’ve gotten significantly worse since then.

    His disapproval rating on the economy was about two-thirds in the most recent polls from Fox News (68%), CBS News (66%) and AP-NORC (66%).

    His disapproval rating on inflation, meanwhile, has hovered even higher — around 70% in polling from CBS (73%), Strength in Numbers-Verasight (71%) and Reuters-Ipsos (69%).

    These kinds of numbers are rare. Typically, 7 in 10 Americans don’t tend to agree on much of anything.

    And one of Trump’s biggest problems is not just that people think the economy is bad; it’s that they think he has actively made it worse. Before the war, they viewed him as neglecting the problem. Now they view him as exacerbating it.

    A CBS poll conducted in the days before the war began showed 75% of Americans said the Trump administration had focused “not enough” on lowering prices. A CNN poll a month later showed 65% said Trump had “not gone far enough” in trying to reduce the prices of everyday goods.

    By May, CNN polling showed 65% of Americans said Trump’s policies had “worsened economic conditions,” and 77% said the policies had “increased the cost of living” in their communities.

    And Trump didn’t just take ownership of an uncertain economy via his global tariffs and the Iran war; he has also seemed almost disdainful of having to deal with affordability issues. He has called the issue a “hoax” and made pretty clear at rallies and elsewhere he’d much rather focus on other things. He keeps making tone-deaf comments that suggest he doesn’t take the issue and Americans’ economic pain seriously.

    All to say, Trump on Wednesday risked furthering a politically damaging narrative. He’s reinforcing his image as a guy who doesn’t really prioritize or even acknowledge Americans’ most important issue.

    Some Republicans and Trump allies might tell themselves that the “SAVE America Act” is worth this gambit; they’d argue it’s just that important to pass legislation requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote, among other provisions.

    But not only is there scant evidence of illegal votes from undocumented migrants and plenty of reason to believe this bill could actually prevent legal votes; this legislation simply isn’t something the American people are clamoring for.

    Republicans have pointed to polling that shows Americans overwhelmingly support voter ID and strongly support proof of citizenship to register. And those issues do poll well. A CBS poll in March showed 66% of Americans supported the latter.

    But otherwise, Americans don’t feel at all strongly about the “SAVE America Act.

    The same poll showed just 28% of Americans said they supported the legislation formerly known as the “SAVE Act,” while 31% opposed it.

    And only 43% thought the legislation would prevent more illegal votes than legal ones.

    Beyond that, it seems unlikely that Trump is even giving himself leverage right now.

    Passing the “SAVE America Act” would likely require Senate Republicans to nuke the filibuster and its 60-vote threshold — for this and everything else — which not enough of them want to do and many of them actively oppose.

    And while that was improbable before, that’s doubly the case now that Trump has alienated Senate Republicans by ousting two senators in primaries — Texas’ John Cornyn and Louisiana’s Bill Cassidy.

    This threat doesn’t change that, and it’s not even a great piece of leverage. Because even if the president doesn’t sign the legislation, it still becomes law after 10 days. To actually stop it, he’d have to veto it.

    And if he did that, he’d be risking a possible veto override, which requires two-thirds votes in both chambers. The legislation already passed with 92% of the House voting for it and 94% of the Senate voting for it.

    Indeed, those majorities are astounding in this day and age. Congress rarely does anything of substance beyond must-pass legislation, such as keeping the government funded. It’s struggled to even do that lately.

    And now that it has done something significant on an issue of major public concern — this is the largest housing affordability bill in a generation — Trump is threatening to blow it all up if he doesn’t get what he wants.

    The likeliest outcome here is that the president eventually backs down. He has made similar threats about the “SAVE America Act” before, including once threatening not to sign any more legislation until it passed.

    But for now, his tantrum cements a very bad narrative for himself and his fellow Republicans ahead of the midterms.

    【福克斯新闻独家报道】 特朗普政府宣布,已利用人工智能、先进超级计算机和3D打印技术成功开发并测试了一款新型与核武器相关的飞行器,这一里程碑被美国国家核安全管理局局长布兰登·威廉姆斯比作曼哈顿计划。

    随着大美国州博览会在国家广场开幕,展出的最具意义的展品之一可能是一个11英尺高的飞行器——它并非为博物馆打造,而是用于测试人工智能如何改变美国的核威慑力量。美国能源部下属的国家核安全管理局(NNSA)表示,这个名为“Aires Tide”的项目可以大幅压缩未来国家安全能力的开发周期。

    此次展示正值美国官员警告称,美国正与中国陷入一场争夺人工智能在军事和战略优势上应用的高风险竞赛。

    “毫无疑问,我们正与中国展开人工智能能力竞赛。人工智能的力量强大无比,它能够将如此多种类的数据和不同的计算模型整合到一处并实现流程优化,未来这种优势还将持续显现,”威廉姆斯告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,“这一技术一部分应用于国家安全领域,一部分则用于我们的核威慑力量。”

    威廉姆斯表示,Aires Tide项目是美国国家核安全管理局发起的,旨在“展示我们如何利用人工智能,加快核武器生产、维护核武库的速度”。这款飞行试验飞行器被设计用于模拟核武器在飞行过程中会遭遇的极端高温和振动环境。

    该项目是特朗普政府去年签署的“创世纪任务”倡议的首次公开演示,该倡议旨在连接美国能源部的国家实验室,并将人工智能应用于政府面临的一些最复杂的国家安全挑战。

    美国国家核安全管理局在国家广场展示Aires Tide之际,恰逢本届政府加大力度强化美国在战略重要技术领域的领导地位。本周,特朗普签署了两项针对量子计算和网络安全的行政令,旨在加速研究级量子计算机的开发,并保护联邦系统免受未来量子赋能网络威胁。

    美国国家核安全管理局表示,其两台超级计算机——韦纳多(Venado)和埃尔卡皮坦(El Capitan)——被用于支持Aires Tide的设计。直到最近,埃尔卡皮坦还被认为是全球最快的超级计算机。然而,在周二发布的最新TOP500排行榜中,中国的“亮线”(LineShine)系统超越埃尔卡皮坦位居榜首,这是自2017年以来中国超级计算机首次登顶全球最快榜单。

    对威廉姆斯而言,计算能力的价值不仅体现在排名上,更体现在其能否快速转化为现实能力。

    威廉姆斯告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,Aires Tide从概念设计到可飞行的硬件仅用了数月时间:官员们利用人工智能在11月完成设计,12月制作出塑料模型,3月前完成多个全尺寸原型机。据威廉姆斯介绍,这一加速流程使该机构开发Aires Tide的速度比传统方法快7倍,成本降低14倍,他称这为美国应对新兴威胁和竞争对手提供了关键优势。

    这就是人工智能的力量,它真的让我们极具信心,能够快速行动……领先于我们的对手以及我们面临的威胁,”威廉姆斯说道。

    威廉姆斯将人工智能的崛起比作曼哈顿计划,称两者都是能够从根本上改变力量平衡的技术突破。正如富兰克林·罗斯福总统在二战期间认识到利用原子能的军事意义一样,威廉姆斯认为,特朗普及其政府正在拥抱人工智能,以确保美国保持战略优势。

    【计算机竞赛升温 中国超级计算机自2017年以来首次超越美国所有机器】

    我们拥有追溯至曼哈顿计划的所有出色测试数据。我们能够利用这些强大的资源、测试数据和计算能力,借助智能体工作流——也就是利用人工智能模型快速、迭代地解决这些极其复杂的问题,从而实现快速推进,”他说,“没错,我们绝对与中国处于竞争之中,这具有极其严肃的国家安全 implications。我们确信,我们将做好准备赢得这场竞争。”**_

    威廉姆斯表示,无人机战争、导弹技术和人工智能的快速发展正在实时改变战争形态,因此美国必须比对手更快地部署新工具。他告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,“创世纪”倡议旨在让美国在这一领域处于领先地位。

    “我们正处于技术变革前所未有的时期。事实上,就在过去五年里,我想我们都认同,战争形态正在我们眼前发生变化,”威廉姆斯告诉福克斯新闻数字频道, 正因我们面临这场技术革命,动用所有可用工具让美国保持领先地位比以往任何时候都重要。自第一次海湾战争以来,我们的常规部队已经享受了长达40年的空前优势。”

    但随着战争形态改变,我们必须随之改变,而人工智能是帮助我们保持领先的最重要工具之一,”他补充道。

    威廉姆斯告诉福克斯新闻数字频道,人工智能的进步并非要取代工人,而是要提高他们的生产力。他认为,人工智能可以将设计和制造周期从10至15年压缩至5年甚至更短,让同样的科学家、工程师和技术人员能够更快、更高效地开发新能力,同时帮助美国领先于竞争对手。

    “Aires Tide让我们将材料科学、设计以及快速迭代等众多领域的专业知识整合在一起,”威廉姆斯说,“快速优化整个流程。这让我们极具信心,能够直面对手摆在我们面前的挑战,并且我们将能够利用这些工具取得成功,保障美国的安全。”_

    FIRST ON FOX: The Trump administration announced that it has successfully developed and tested a new nuclear-weapons-related flight vehicle using artificial intelligence, advanced supercomputing and 3D printing technology, marking a milestone National Nuclear Security Administrator Brandon Williams compared to the Manhattan Project.

    As the Great American State Fair kicks off on the National Mall, one of the most consequential exhibits on display may be an 11-foot-tall flight vehicle built not for a museum, but as a test of how AI could transform America’s nuclear deterrent. The Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) says the project, known as Aires Tide, could dramatically compress the timeline for developing future national security capabilities.

    The unveiling comes as U.S. officials warn that America is locked in a high-stakes race with China to harness artificial intelligence for military and strategic advantage.

    “There’s no question that we’re in an AI capabilities race with China. The power of artificial intelligence just to be able to bring together so many kinds of data and different computational models together in one place and to streamline that is incredibly powerful and will continue to be powerful going forward,” Williams told Fox News Digital. “And so part of that is applied to national security. Part of that’s applied to our nuclear deterrence.”

    Williams said Aires Tide was started by the NNSA to demonstrate “how we would use artificial intelligence to move faster in terms of how we produce nuclear weapons, how we maintain our nuclear weapons stockpile.”_ The flight test vehicle was designed to simulate the extreme heat and vibration a nuclear weapon would encounter during a nuclear weapon’s flight.

    The project serves as the first public demonstration of the administration’s Genesis Mission initiative, an effort signed by President Donald Trump last year to connect the Department of Energy’s national laboratories and apply artificial intelligence to some of the government’s most complex national security challenges.

    The Aires Tide unveiling on the National Mall comes amid a broader push by the administration to strengthen U.S. leadership in strategically important technologies. This week, Trump signed two separate executive orders focused on quantum computing and cybersecurity, seeking to accelerate development of a research-grade quantum computer and protect federal systems against future quantum-enabled cyber threats.

    The NNSA said two of its supercomputers — Venado and El Capitan -— were used to enable the design of Aires Tide. El Capitan until recently was considered the fastest in the world. On Tuesday, however, China’s LineShine system surpassed El Capitan atop the latest TOP500 rankings, the first time a Chinese supercomputer has held the No. 1 position since 2017.

    For Williams, the value of that computing power is measured not by rankings alone, but by how quickly it can translate into real-world capabilities.

    Williams told Fox News Digital that Aires Tide moved from concept to flight-ready hardware in a matter of months, with officials using AI to generate a design by November, produce a plastic model by December and complete multiple full-scale prototypes by March. According to Williams, the accelerated process allowed the agency to develop Aires Tide seven times faster and 15 times cheaper than it could have using traditional methods, providing what he described as a critical advantage as the U.S. seeks to stay ahead of emerging threats and competitors.

    That’s the power of AI, and it really gave us incredible confidence that we’re going to be able to move fast… to stay ahead of our adversaries, and the threats that face us,” Williams said.

    Williams likened the emergence of artificial intelligence to the Manhattan Project, describing both as technological breakthroughs capable of fundamentally altering the balance of power. Just as President Franklin D. Roosevelt recognized the military implications of harnessing atomic energy during World War II, Williams argued that Trump and his administration are embracing AI to ensure the United States maintains its strategic advantage.

    COMPUTER WARS HEAT UP AS CHINESE SUPERCOMPUTER TOPS ALL US MACHINES IN SPEED FOR FIRST TIME SINCE 2017

    We have all this fantastic test data going back really to the Manhattan Project. And we’re able to tap into these very powerful resources that we have, test data, computational capabilities, using agentic workflows, which is just a way of leveraging AI models to go out and solve these very complex problems very, very quickly and very, very iteratively that allows us to move quickly,” he said. “So yes, we are absolutely in a competition with China. It has very serious national security implications. And we’re certain that we’re going to position ourselves to win.”_

    Williams said that rapid advances in drone warfare, missile technology and AI are changing the nature of warfare in real time, making it critical for the U.S. to deploy new tools faster than its adversaries. The Genesis initiative, he told Fox News Digital, is intended to position America at the forefront of that effort.

    “We’re in a period of unprecedented change in technology. In fact, just in the last five years, I think we’d all agree that the nature of warfare is changing in front of us,” Williams told Fox News Digital. Because of all of this technological revolution that we’re facing, it’s as important as it ever has been that we use all the tools available to keep America out front. We’ve enjoyed an unprecedented 40 years of superiority from our conventional forces, really since the first Gulf War.”

    “But because warfare is changing, we have to change with it and artificial intelligence is one of the most important tools to keep us ahead,” he added.

    Williams told Fox News Digital that AI advancements are not about replacing workers, but making them more productive. He argued that artificial intelligence can help compress design and manufacturing timelines from 10 to 15 years down to five years or less, allowing the same scientists, engineers and technicians to develop new capabilities faster and more efficiently while helping the U.S. stay ahead of its competitors.

    “Aires Tide allowed us to bring so many disciplines together of material science, of design, of being able to iterate very quick,” Williams said. “Quickly and to optimize our whole process. And it just gave us tremendous confidence that we’re going to meet the challenges that, frankly, our adversaries put in front of us and that we are going to be able to use these tools to succeed and to keep America safe.”_

    福克斯新闻已证实,美国陆军欧洲与非洲部队司令即将卸任,他在这个令人瞩目的职位上任职约一年半。

    根据美国陆军的一份声明,同时领导北约盟军地面司令部的克里斯托弗·多纳休将军将于7月2日移交指挥权。多纳休的副手、少将克里斯托弗·诺里将于7月2日后接任其职务。

    多纳休应国防部长皮特·赫格斯瑟的要求提交了退役申请,赫格斯瑟一直致力于削减将军数量,并优先扩充普通士兵人数。他是赫格斯瑟领导下超过24名提前离职或退役的军方高级官员中的最新一位。

    “陆军感谢多纳休将军对美国陆军欧洲与非洲部队的领导,”陆军在给福克斯新闻的声明中表示。

    陆军参谋长被下令立即退休,赫格斯瑟继续推动五角大楼人事震荡

    多纳休最为人熟知的身份是2021年8月最后一名离开阿富汗的美国士兵,这标志着美国在9·11袭击后发动的近20年战争画上句号。他登上C-17运输机的瞬间被一张通过夜视镜拍摄的标志性照片记录下来。

    当时他担任第82空降师师长,在混乱的撤军行动中被派往喀布尔哈米德·卡尔扎伊国际机场负责安保工作。

    负责管控机场修道院门安检的是海军陆战队,而非多纳休的部队。2017年,一名ISIS-K成员在该门发动自杀式炸弹袭击,造成13名美国军人和约170名阿富汗平民死亡。

    尽管外界批评整体撤军策略仓促且混乱,但多纳休在此次撤离行动中的领导能力得到了两党人士的赞扬,此次行动共将约12.4万名阿富汗公民空运撤离阿富汗。

    赫格斯瑟下令五角大楼对“灾难性”的2021年阿富汗撤军展开全面审查

    唐纳德·特朗普总统多年来一直就此抨击前总统乔·拜登,去年5月,赫格斯瑟下令对撤军行动展开新的调查,此前五角大楼、美国中央司令部、国务院和国会已对此次行动进行过多次调查。

    作为西点军校毕业生和职业特种作战指挥官,多纳休曾领导伊拉克和阿富汗的三角洲部队单位。随后他于2020年7月至2022年3月担任第82空降师师长,并于2024年12月由拜登任命至现任职位。

    作为欧洲高级指挥官,多纳休在2022年2月俄罗斯入侵乌克兰后协调了对乌军事援助。官员告诉福克斯新闻,他对俄乌冲突的参与使他成为美国陆军顶尖的无人机作战专家。

    在陆军内部,多纳休被视为经验最丰富的士兵之一,其战斗经历远超大多数同僚。据美联社报道,他还被认为有潜力成为参谋长联席会议主席。

    据熟悉情况的消息人士向福克斯新闻透露,多纳休的离职恰逢陆军内部讨论将美国陆军欧洲与非洲部队从四星司令部降级为三星司令部。

    这一计划出台前,赫格斯瑟上周告诉北约盟友,他将对美国在欧洲的驻军展开为期六个月的审查。

    “这将是一场真正的审查,旨在确保北约能够快速且不可逆转地朝着欧洲主导的方向前进,承担起欧洲防务的主要责任,”他在布鲁塞尔对北约官员表示,“这场审查中,有些国家会表现糟糕,有些国家则会脱颖而出。”

    五角大楼和陆军没有立即就多纳休的离职置评,这一消息最先由《大西洋月刊》报道。

    由于多纳休担任四星将军的时间尚未达到规定的三年,他需要获得总统豁免才能保留四星将军的退休福利。

    The U.S. Army’s commanding general of forces in Europe and Africa is stepping down after roughly a year and a half at the coveted post, Fox News has confirmed.

    Gen. Christopher Donahue — who also leads NATO’s Allied Land Command — will relinquish his command on July 2, according to a statement from the Army. Donahue’s deputy, Maj. Gen. Christopher Norrie, will take over his duties after July 2.

    Donahue submitted his retirement papers at the request of War Secretary Pete Hegseth, who has sought to shrink the number of generals and prioritize adding new GIs. He is the latest military leader of more than two dozen to leave or retire early under Hegseth’s leadership.

    “The Army thanks Gen. Donahue for his leadership of U.S. Army Europe and Africa,” the Army said in a statement provided to Fox News.

    Donahue is best known as the last U.S. soldier to leave Afghanistan in August 2021, marking the end of America’s nearly 20-year war launched after the Sept. 11 attacks. The moment he stepped onto a C-17 cargo plane was captured in an iconic photo taken through night vision goggles.

    At the time, he was the commander of the 82nd Airborne Division and was brought in to oversee security at Hamid Karzai International Airport during the chaotic withdrawal.

    The Marines, not Donahue’s forces, were in charge of securing Abbey Gate at the airport, which was attacked by a member of ISIS-K in a suicide bombing that killed 13 U.S. service members and roughly 170 Afghan civilians.

    Donahue’s leadership of the evacuation, which saw roughly 124,000 Afghan citizens airlifted from the country, drew praise from both Democrats and Republicans, even though the broader withdrawal strategy was criticized as rushed and haphazard.

    HEGSETH ORDERS PENTAGON TO LAUNCH COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW INTO ‘CATASTROPHIC’ 2021 AFGHANISTAN WITHDRAWAL

    President Donald Trump attacked former President Joe Biden over this for years, and last May, Hegseth ordered a new investigation of the withdrawal following earlier probes of the operation by the Pentagon, U.S. Central Command, the State Department and Congress.

    A West Point graduate and a career special operations commander, Donahue led the Delta Force units in Iraq and Afghanistan. He was then picked to be the 82nd Airborne Division commander from July 2020 to March 2022, before being appointed to his current position by Biden in December 2024.

    As a top commander in Europe, Donahue coordinated military aid to Ukraine after the Russian invasion in February 2022. Officials told Fox News that his involvement in that war has made him the U.S. Army’s preeminent expert on drone warfare.

    Within the Army, Donahue was seen as one of the most seasoned soldiers with more combat experience than most. He was also thought to be someone who had the potential to become chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, according to The Associated Press.

    Donahue’s departure coincides with discussions inside the Army to downgrade U.S. Army Europe and Africa from a four-star to a three-star command, according to sources who spoke to Fox News.

    This would come after Hegseth told NATO allies last week he would be leading a six-month review of American forces in Europe.

    “This will be a real review. It will be designed to ensure that NATO is moving fast and irreversibly toward Europe leading, stepping up to take primary responsibility for the defense of Europe,” he told NATO officials in Brussels. “It’s a review that some countries will fail and others will pass with flying colors.”

    The Pentagon and the Army did not immediately comment on Donahue’s exit, which was first reported by The Atlantic.

    Donahue will need a presidential waiver to retain his four-star retirement benefits, since he hasn’t had his fourth star for the requisite three years.

    华盛顿6月24日电(路透社)——美国邮政总局负责人周三为总统唐纳德·特朗普要求各州提供已领取邮寄选票的选民名单的计划进行辩护。

    美国邮政署长戴维·施泰纳在参议院国土安全与政府事务委员会听证会上表示,根据该提案,在州官员拒绝遵守规定的州,美国邮政总局将不会递送选票。

    “这项拟议规则实质上是胁迫各州遵守这些新要求,交出他们的缺席选民名单,否则将面临无法通过邮寄方式投票的后果,”委员会资深民主党议员加里·彼得斯说道。“这是不可接受的。”

    广告 · 滚动继续

    施泰纳辩称,该计划将提高效率,并效仿许多州目前正在实施的做法。美国邮政总局正在确保“我们将各州认为应寄出的选票与实际寄出的选票进行匹配”。

    该提案将要求各州向美国邮政总局提供与联邦选举邮寄选票相关的姓名和条形码。该提案还要求各州为寄出和寄回的选票信封添加唯一条形码,称这“将有助于确保遵守联邦法律,并助力执法工作”。

    所有47名民主党参议员周三致信美国邮政总局,敦促该机构放弃该计划,称这是“将美国邮政总局转变为由白宫和特朗普总统控制的选举管理机构的违宪且非法的企图”。

    广告 · 滚动继续

    民主党参议员埃莉莎·斯洛特金表示,施泰纳是特朗普痴迷于掌控选举的“棋子”。“你(正被特朗普)利用,”斯洛特金说道。“他不承认他输掉的选举是合法选举。”

    这项拟议规章源于特朗普3月份的行政命令,该命令旨在严格限制邮寄投票,尽管他并未提供证据,但称邮寄投票极易引发欺诈。

    上周,一名美国法官表示,由民主党领导的州和投票权组织可以继续提起诉讼,挑战这项邮寄投票行政命令。

    特朗普的命令指示国土安全部从公民身份和入籍记录以及其他联邦数据库中提取信息,编制并向各州发送一份符合资格在每个州投票的已确认美国公民名单。

    US Postal Service defends plan to require states to disclose mail voting lists

    WASHINGTON, June 24 (Reuters) – The head of the U.S. Postal Service on Wednesday defended a plan demanded by President Donald Trump to ​require states to provide lists of voters who received mailed ballots.

    U.S. Postmaster ‌General David Steiner said at a U.S. Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee hearing that, under the proposal, USPS would not deliver ballots in states where officials refuse to comply.

    The Reuters Daily Briefing newsletter provides all the news you need to start your day. Sign up here.

    “The proposed rule basically ​coerces states to conform to these new requirements and hand over their absentee ​voter rolls, or face the consequences of not being able to vote ⁠by mail,” said Senator Gary Peters, the top Democrat on the committee. “That’s unacceptable.”

    Advertisement · Scroll to continue

    Steiner argued the ​plan would be more efficient and mirror what many states are currently doing. USPS is ​making sure “we match the ballots that a state believes they’re sending out to what actually gets sent out.”

    The proposal would require states to provide the USPS the names and barcodes tied to their mail-in ​ballots for federal elections. It would also require states to provide unique barcodes applied to ​the outbound and return ballot mail envelopes, saying it “will help determine adherence to federal law and facilitate ‌law ⁠enforcement efforts.”

    All 47 Democratic senators wrote a letter to the Postal Service on Wednesday, urging the agency to drop the plan, calling it an “unconstitutional and illegal attempt to transform USPS into an election administration agency controlled by the White House and President Trump.”

    Democratic Senator Elissa ​Slotkin said Steiner is ​a “pawn” in Trump’s obsession ⁠to take over elections. “You are being used (by President Trump),” Slotkin said. “He does not believe elections that he loses are valid elections.”

    The proposed ​regulation stems from Trump’s March executive order that aimed to severely ​restrict mail-in ⁠voting, which he has said is prone to fraud, without providing evidence.

    Last week, a U.S. judge said Democratic-led states and voting rights groups could proceed with lawsuits challenging the mail-in voting ⁠order.

    Trump’s order ​directs the Homeland Security Department to compile and transmit ​to states a list of confirmed U.S. citizens eligible to vote in each state, derived from citizenship and naturalization ​records and other federal databases.

    400客工被欠薪涉事公司增至三家 雇主或已离新

    2026年6月24日 23:03 / 新明日报

    被拖欠薪资的约400名客工目前多数居住在大士村客工宿舍。 (陈渊庄摄)

    全国职工总会和人力部正协助约400名客工追讨被拖欠的薪水,涉事雇主可能已不在新加坡。

    另据《联合早报》了解,另有一家公司涉及拖欠客工薪水,使涉事企业增至三家,而这三家公司均有同一名董事。

    职总秘书长黄志明与文化、社区及青年部兼人力部政务部长迪内希星期三(6月24日)走访大士村客工宿舍(Tuas View Dormitory),与遭欠薪的客工面对面交流。黄志明接受媒体访问时说,职总已与人力部进行沟通,“我们将尽最大努力协助客工追讨欠薪。我认为,抛弃员工并拖欠薪资的做法,是职总绝不能容忍,也绝不会坐视不理的。”

    他也说,目前正联系相关雇主处理事件。“这个过程会比较复杂,我了解到涉事雇主可能已不在新加坡。”

    迪内希则强调,当局严肃看待这起事件和雇主责任问题。“人力部目前已展开调查,不过调查仍处于初步阶段。一旦调查完成,我们将根据调查结果采取必要的执法行动。”

    人力部此前表明,调查两家涉事公司是否违反雇佣法令。若证实违法,人力部将对相关公司采取必要的执法行动,这两家公司是冷气维修服务公司KPA Engineering和工业配件生产服务公司SK Industries。

    不过,据《联合早报》在大士村客工宿舍采访发现,受影响客工也有受雇于建筑承包公司VVR Plant Engineering。

    同一董事名下注册多家公司 近期遭多人催债

    CENTCOM “forces conducted an airstrike in northwest Syria, June 19, that resulted in the death of a senior ISIS leader,” according to a press release.

    涉协助诈骗 24岁马国男子被控

    2026年6月24日 23:13 / 新明日报

    在后续调查过程中,警方起获并扣押了28张银行提款卡及两部手机,涉嫌用来清洗犯罪所得。这些提款卡与至少八起诈骗案件有关,涉案损失金额超过7万1000元。 (新加坡警察部队提供)

    警方将以涉嫌协助诈骗的罪名,提控一名24岁的马来西亚男子。

    警方星期三(6月24日)晚发布文告说,在星期二(23日)接到通报,得知一名24岁马来西亚男子受诈骗集团指派入境新加坡,并用钱骡提供的银行卡去提取骗来的钱。

    经后续调查,反诈骗指挥处与移民与关卡局人员于同一天趁男子入境时将他逮捕。

    警方起获并扣押了28张涉嫌用来清洗犯罪所得的银行提款卡及两部手机。这些提款卡与至少八起报案诈骗案件有关,涉案损失金额超过7万1000元。

    初步调查显示,男子相信是被来自跨国诈骗集团的不明身份人士指派,使用钱骡提供的ATM卡提取现金,并将现金转交给对方。

    警方注意到,马来西亚公民入境新加坡,协助诈骗集团从受害人处收取现金和贵重物品,以及使用移交的银行卡从提款机取现的趋势持续上升。

    《联合早报》上星期二(16日)报道,今年以来,因充当诈骗案钱骡被控的马来西亚籍男女,仅上半年已有超过30人,去年全年的人数则为40余人。

    警方提醒,自去年12月30日起,诈骗分子及诈骗集团成员或招募人员将面临6至12下的强制鞭刑。协助诈骗分子清洗诈骗所得的钱骡,将面临最高12下的酌情鞭刑。

    警方强调,绝不容忍一切涉嫌诈骗的违法犯罪行为,违法者将被依法处置。

    免费榴梿15分钟扫空一吨 民众提前2小时排队

    2026年6月24日 23:55 / 新明日报

    水果店免费送榴梿活动反应热烈,公众提前两小时到场排队,开领后不到15分钟,上吨榴梿便被一扫而空。 (关俊威摄)

    淡滨尼一家水果店每天傍晚6时起免费送榴梿,活动反应热烈,不少公众提早两小时到场排队。尽管每人只限领两个,活动开始不到15分钟,上吨榴梿便被一扫而空。

    天天免费送榴梿 活动料持续至8月

    位于淡滨尼81街第827座组屋底层的Durian Ninja水果店,自上星期五(6月19日)起每天免费送榴梿,在货源充足的情况下,活动预计会持续至8月。

    blob:https://www.zaobao.com.sg/5f55acce-4401-4609-a416-c6b82336dd86

    据了解,店家每天会送出约800公斤至一吨的榴梿,这些榴梿大多是甘榜名种榴梿,来自彭亨文冬和柔佛麻坡。每人只限领两个,先到先得。

    《联合早报》记者星期三(24日)下午约4时15分抵达现场时,已有十余名公众聚集在店外,看着店主在店外搬运和摆放约10大箩榴梿。一名店员过后组织在场民众沿人行道排队等候。

    傍晚5时,距派发开始还有一个小时,排队人数持续增加,人行道上的队伍很快延伸至50多米。随着更多公众陆续加入,队列迅速突破百人。

    4时许下班后赶来排队的救生员曾旭辉(23岁)说,同事告诉他这家店有免费榴梿,加上自己就住在附近,于是决定前来领免费榴梿。

    “这个营销方式不错,除了附近居民,还可以吸引其他地区的人专程前来。如果榴梿品质不错,说不定还会有回头客。”

    不过,他认为免费送榴梿也有弊端。“有些人可能会把这种营销策略视为理所当然,日后反而不会掏钱买。”

    家住勿洛的退休人士蔡美琪(67岁)星期一(22日)晚上在脸书得知消息后,特地约友人搭巴士到淡滨尼排队。

    两人下午约4时便抵达现场,考虑到等待时间较长,两人还特地带上小凳子。

    蔡美琪说,虽然今年榴梿价格比较便宜,但身为榴梿爱好者,她还是抵挡不住免费榴梿的诱惑。“反正我已退休,有的是时间,如今还有免费榴梿吃,何乐而不为?”

    同样住在附近的退休人士蔡先生(72岁)则说自己只是前来看热闹,不打算吃免费榴梿。“免费榴梿的品质不一定有保证,我宁愿多花一点钱吃好榴梿。”

    店主:少数人多拿也防不胜防

    店家虽有“每人限领两个榴梿”的规定,但超额领走榴梿的还是大有人在。(关俊威摄)

    据记者现场观察,接近傍晚6时,一名店员先向排队民众分发红色塑料袋。时间一到,民众立刻蜂拥而上,围着一箩箩的榴梿竞相挑选,塞进袋子里。尽管店家规定每人限取两个,仍有不少人视若无睹,一次拿走三四个。

    免费送榴梿活动吸引了大批公众前来,Durian Ninja负责人纪荣财(25岁)受访时坦言,事前找朋友在现场帮忙维持秩序,但仍阻止不了个别人超额领取的情况。

    “我们注意到有些人拿三四个,有些甚至更多,但现场人手有限,很难逐一制止。”

    他说,举办活动是要回馈社会,也算是一种善行,对于少数不守规矩的人,他也只能睁一只眼、闭一只眼。

    “喜欢吃榴梿的大多是年长者,我希望通过这个活动吸引更多年轻人尝鲜,让他们也爱上榴梿。”

    附近同行暂不跟进促销

    同一邻里还有另外三家水果店也卖榴梿,但他们都觉得免费派送榴梿活动对他们影响不大,因此不打算搞促销。

    位于第823A座组屋一层的利陞号鲜果店员杨志庙受访时指出,免费送榴梿属于商家的营销策略,不同店家经营各自的顾客群即可。“我们还是按照市场价售卖。”

    48 Everfresh头手张宏华则认为,大家向来各做各的,把自己的生意顾好就行。
