特朗普支持率微升至36% 民众对生活费不满略缓

最新民调显示，美国总统特朗普支持率近日小幅回升至36%，主要原因是美国人对生活费高涨的不满略微放缓。不过，约41%选民称，若今天举行国会选举，他们将投选自身选区的民主党候选人。 （路透社）

（华盛顿路透电）最新民调显示，美国总统特朗普支持率近日小幅回升至36%，主要原因是美国人对生活费高涨的不满略微放缓，但整体支持率仍处于特朗普第二任期以来低位。

路透社与益普索星期一（6月15日）完成的民调显示，特朗普支持率较上一次民调略微回弹一个百分点至36%。特朗普去年1月开启第二任期时，支持率为47% 。

这项进行了四天的民调是在特朗普星期天（14日）宣布与伊朗达成停战协议的前后期间进行，市场对美伊和平谈判的乐观情绪推动近期汽油价格回落。

不过，美国人目前支付的油价，仍比美伊冲突爆发前高出约每加仑1美元（约1.28新元）。

在生活费议题方面，24%受访者认可特朗普的表现，高于一周前的22%及一个月前的20%；不满意比率则从一个月前的73%降至69%。

尽管支持率略有改善，特朗普整体民望依旧低迷，甚至在农村选民和福音派基督徒等核心支持群体中也有所流失。

这项民调访问了全美1537名成人，误差范围约正负三个百分点。

曾批伊核协议“最糟” 特朗普新协议遭奥巴马质疑

曾批伊核协议“最糟” 特朗普新协议遭奥巴马质疑

美国前总统奥巴马对特朗普政府处理伊朗问题表示怀疑，认为即便美伊达成新协议，也很难在实质上明显优于2015年的伊朗核协议。

美国广播公司（ABC）报道，奥巴马是在特朗普宣布美伊达成新协议前一天接受ABC专访时，发表上述看法。

奥巴马说：“我怀疑，任何由此产生的协议，会与我们当初达成的协议有显著不同，或有明显改进。那份协议是我们长时间努力争取而来的，后来却由美国选择退出。”

特朗普曾在八年前退出2015年伊朗核协议，并称那是“史上最糟糕的协议”。

特朗普6月14日宣布，美国与伊朗已达成协议，将重开霍尔木兹海峡并结束美国海上封锁。伊朗副外长加里巴巴迪随后证实，协议已敲定，并将于星期五（19日）在瑞士签署。

特朗普政府一名高级官员曾说，新协议将重开霍尔木兹海峡，并让伊朗逐步结束核计划，同时把伊朗的高浓缩铀交由美国处理。不过，协议的具体细节目前仍不清楚。

奥巴马也呼吁决策者优先考虑外交途径。

他指出，在许多棘手的外交政策问题上，认为可以靠恫吓或轰炸解决问题，或许一时看似有吸引力，但更重要的是花时间探索外交可能，达成虽不能解决全部问题、但可解决八九成问题并避免战争的协议。

“你会以为我们早该吸取这个教训了，但似乎每隔一段时间，我们又得重新再学一遍。”

G7聚焦俄乌战争 特朗普：俄罗斯应达成协议

七国集团峰会星期二（6月16日）就俄乌战争问题举行会议，出席者包括欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩（左起）、欧洲理事会主席科斯塔、德国总理默茨、英国首相斯塔默、美国总统特朗普、法国总统马克龙、乌克兰总统泽连斯基、加拿大总理卡尼、意大利总理梅洛尼和日本首相高市早苗。 （法新社）

（埃维昂综合电）乌克兰总统泽连斯基星期二在七国集团峰会上，就俄乌战争问题与美国总统特朗普举行会谈；欧洲领袖则希望趁机劝说特朗普，不要推动对俄罗斯过于有利的停火方案，并继续向莫斯科施压。

泽连斯基星期二（6月16日）在法国埃维昂出席七国集团峰会举行的特别会议，旨在推动乌克兰实现和平，并与特朗普和美国国务卿鲁比奥会面。

特朗普说，俄罗斯“应该达成协议”，结束持续超过四年的战争，并称双方死伤人数十分“荒谬”，而他将“尽自己所能”促成停战。

特朗普星期一（15日）说，他事前分别与普京和泽连斯基通话，认为两人“都愿意就结束战争做点事”。

泽连斯基盼美方居中协调 俄称未获邀出席G7峰会

泽连斯基周一说，他已提议在G7峰会期间与普京会面，但俄方“尚未准备好对话”。他也建议由特朗普居中协调，在美国举行俄乌峰会，让普京更难拒绝谈判。

克里姆林宫发言人佩斯科夫星期二说，普京尚未通过官方渠道收到泽连斯基的邀请，出席这次的G7峰会。

此外，泽连斯基呼吁G7领袖作出“果断且实质性回应”，并把争取更多防空系统作为这次峰会重点议题。

一名法国外交官周二告诉路透社，G7领导人同意通过对俄石油和天然气实施制裁，加大对俄施压力度。

俄军星期一对乌克兰首都基辅和东北部城市哈尔科夫发动大规模空袭，造成至少11人死亡，并严重损毁基辅洞窟修道院这个拥有上千年历史的联合国文化遗产。

修道院内的圣母安息大教堂遭击中，导致屋顶起火受损。泽连斯基到修道院视察后形容，这是“俄罗斯至今对基督教文化最严重的罪行之一”。

洞窟修道院建于1051年，是乌克兰精神与文化历史的重要象征。1990年被列入联合国教科文组织世界遗产名录。

此外，俄军针对哈尔科夫的空袭击中一座动物园，造成园内10只兔子死亡，另有15只动物受伤。

乌军称，俄军连夜发射70枚导弹及611架无人机，乌方击落其中50枚导弹和582架无人机。

与此同时，乌克兰加大对俄罗斯能源设施的打击。泽连斯基星期二在社媒发文说，乌军远程无人机袭击了500公里外的莫斯科最大炼油厂，“正当回应”俄军的空袭。

莫斯科索比亚宁证实，属于俄罗斯天然气工业石油公司的设施受损。当地紧急服务部门说，炼油厂的大火势已扑灭，运作不受影响。

欧盟启动乌克兰入盟首轮谈判

另一方面，乌克兰加入欧盟取得新进展。欧盟27国外长星期一正式启动乌克兰和摩尔多瓦加入欧盟的首轮谈判，内容涵盖司法、民主机构运作和公共采购等基础议题。

乌克兰须推动相关改革，使本国法律与欧盟标准接轨。根据入盟程序，候选国必须就六大政策章节进行谈判，主题包括基本权利、欧盟内部市场及对外关系等。

乌克兰副总理卡奇卡形容，这是乌克兰迈向加入欧盟梦想的“里程碑时刻”。不过，外交人士普遍认为，乌克兰的入盟进程将复杂且漫长。

欧盟早在2023年12月同意启动乌克兰与摩尔多瓦的入盟谈判，但因匈牙利前政府反对而迟迟未能推进。随着匈牙利新政府本月与基辅就乌境内匈牙利少数族群权益达成协议，欧盟终于为首轮谈判开绿灯。

英国首相斯塔默星期一宣布，英国将向乌克兰核电厂提供浓缩铀，确保未来两年电力供应，并对俄罗斯影子舰队油轮及俄罗斯互联网公司Yandex旗下银行等金融业者施行新一轮制裁。

Trump’s push to revive SAVE America Act runs into skepticism from its biggest backers

June 16, 2026 8:00am EDT / Fox News

Sen John Kennedy calls reconciliation ‘our only shot’ but says Republicans have burned too much time

President Donald Trump wants Republicans to include his long-sought voter ID and citizenship verification legislation into a party-line package, but even the bill’s strongest backers don’t think it’s possible.

Trump last week demanded that Republicans get to work on a third budget reconciliation package, cramming $350 billion in defense spending along with the Safeguarding American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act into one bill.

Republicans, fresh off passing their second reconciliation package to fund immigration enforcement for the remainder of the Trump era, were lukewarm at best on doing the process again, especially with little time left before the fast-approaching midterm elections.

But some see reconciliation, which would completely cut Democrats out of the process, as the only way to pass the SAVE America Act.

“It’s our only shot. It’s the only shot,” Sen. John Kennedy, R-La., said. “I just don’t think we have enough time. We burned a lot of time, and I’m not sure that we can agree on all the stuff to put in it. Not everybody is as easy to get along with as I am.”

The problems facing the legislation are two-pronged. Senate Democrats have vowed to block it on the floor, meaning any hope of hitting the 60-vote filibuster threshold is impossible — and not every Republican is on board with the bill.

“I support voter ID and support only American citizens voting, but Democrats are implacably opposed to it, and we don’t have enough Republicans to fill the gap,” Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, said. “So we should move on and focus on winning the midterms instead of fighting each other.”

$5M SAVE America Act ad blitz targets Senate: ‘What are they waiting for?’

Republicans have tried and failed several times now to pass the bill, even launching a quasi-floor takeover earlier this year to force debate on the matter.

Still, Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., acknowledged that “we don’t have the vote.”

“Even if you confine it to just the two issues of photo ID and, you know, citizenship, in order to register to vote on those two issues, you take 60 votes in the Senate,” Thune said. “The only way you could get there is to undo or get rid of the legislative filibuster, and there aren’t even close to the votes here in the United States Senate in order to achieve that.”

Trying to put the bill into a reconciliation package, which can pass with a simple majority of votes, has its own issues beyond a vote count.

The process is governed by the Byrd Rule, which dictates broadly that any item in reconciliation has to have a direct budgetary impact and can’t be pure policy. If a provision is ruled as being policy, it triggers the 60-vote threshold.

REPUBLICANS FAIL TO ATTACH SAVE AMERICA ACT TO PARTY-LINE FUNDING PACKAGE

Republicans, including Kennedy, tried three separate times to include the SAVE America Act — or versions of it — into the latest reconciliation package. All three hit the 60-vote mark, and all but one failed to hit 50 votes.

Sen. Jon Husted, R-Ohio, is one of the top backers of the SAVE America Act in the upper chamber and said that he has “been looking for every way possible to get the SAVE America Act passed.”

“And we are currently working on some options that could meet the standard to be part of the reconciliation process,” Husted said. “But I am in no way certain that we get it done, but we should try.”

Those alternatives would likely be quite different than what the current bill looks like, which Trump has already asked Republicans to revamp to include policy unrelated to elections, like barring biological men from participating in women’s sports.

Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, the main driver of the SAVE America Act in the Senate, acknowledged that the bill was “policy, it’s non-budgetary. Therefore, SAVE America itself is not eligible for consideration in a third reconciliation.”

But he said a plausible pathway to getting at least an aspect of the bill through the Byrd Rule would be providing funding for states to issue an “Enhanced Real ID,” which shows proof of citizenship.

Then, lawmakers could pass a separate bill outside of reconciliation that would require proof of identity to register to vote in federal elections. But Lee, like many in the Senate GOP, was skeptical that a third reconciliation bill would even be an option.

“The second reason is just, as a practical matter, I see no evidence that there is a viable path to a third reconciliation bill,” Lee said. “I hope there is. I would love to be wrong on that. I want us to do that. I think we should do that. But the schedule that we’ve got, to my great disappointment, is not — It doesn’t accommodate any of it.”

Ebola outbreak still spreading in Congo, and “that means we are missing cases,” WHO says

Kampala, Uganda — The Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and neighboring Uganda is still spreading one month after the outbreak was declared. The total number of confirmed cases surged between Monday and Tuesday to over 800, an increase of about 300 since last week.

The United Nations’ World Health Organization has warned that the virus is still “increasing” in its “geographic spread” in Congo, and experts say it’s a race against time to stop it from mushrooming into a wider health crisis.

In the epicenter of Ituri province, Congolese security forces fired warning shots to break up an angry crowd of people trying to take the body of an Ebola victim home. Health workers were trying to remove the body for the community’s safety — even in death, victims are highly contagious.

The WHO has said that “intense community transmission continues” in the Central African region, and new cases and deaths have surged.

WHO Incident Manager Dr. Marie-Roseline Belizaire told CBS News deaths were still being reported by the community in Congo, and “that means we are missing cases,” with the disease still spreading undetected in the population.

“One month after the outbreak has been declared, I’m still feeling concerned ,” she said.

• U.S. doctor who recovered from Ebola returns to U.S., says he’s “feeling well”

Efforts to trace anyone believed to have come into contact with known Ebola cases have also seen slow progress. There’s been some improvement, but Congolese health workers say they’ve only been able to follow up with a little over half of the people who came into contact with confirmed cases. In real numbers, this means about 3,000 possible contacts are still unaccounted for.

Over the border in Uganda, authorities are in proactive protection mode. As soon as CBS News landed in the country, all members of the team had to scan a QR code and declare that nobody had been in contact with bats, attended a funeral or experienced symptoms of Ebola such as fever or vomiting.

But that was at the main airport. Uganda shares a nearly 500-mile border with Congo — about the length of the state of Florida — and despite it officially being closed amid the outbreak, people continue to move freely across it.

“Our problem is how is it being managed across the border with the Congo,” Uganda’s National Director of Public Health, Dr. Daniel Kyabayinze, told CBS News. “We know all our cases have been imported from there.”

As of June 10, the WHO said at least 19 Ebola cases had been confirmed in Uganda, including two deaths.

Kyabayinze said the movement of people across the border was likely “very minimal” under the restrictions, but he couldn’t rule it out.

“We are the same people. The culture and language in Uganda and the people across the Congo are the same,” he said. “They’re the same families. So, even when you have non-gazetted (unofficial) crossing points, the families still communicate.”

“Putting a tight ribbon, or a no-stop movement on the porous borders is almost impossible, it’s like stopping wind from blowing,” Kyabayinze said.

He and other top epidemiologists told CBS News this week that they’re generally happy with the preventative measures implemented by Uganda, and no new cases have been reported in the country in 11 days. But they said they continue to monitor the outbreak in Congo — and the two countries’ long shared border — very closely.

日本有意派兵赴霍尔木兹海峡参与扫雷

日本政府据报积极考虑派兵加入霍尔木兹海峡的扫雷工作，准备在美伊本星期五签署初步终战协议并公布内容后再评估可行性。

在美国和伊朗达成初步协议后，各方殷切盼望原油供应早日回复顺畅，但在这之前，国际将合力在霍尔木兹海峡进行扫雷工作，以确保航行安全。有报道说，英国和法国已敲定计划，准备在美伊就重开霍尔木兹海峡达成协议后的数日内，牵头在这一重要航道展开多国扫雷任务。

据日本媒体，受和平宪法禁止海外派兵的日本有意通过这个机会，实现参与“多国军事行动”。不过，如果美伊和解，依据日本的《自卫队法》，自卫队可参与“海上警备行动”，为民间船舶提供护航。

《日经新闻》说，目前在欧洲访问的首相高市早苗将在了解英国和法国等对局势发展的反应后，为日本派兵做准备。

高市星期一（6月15日）在法国埃维昂出席七国集团（G7）峰会时，对美伊达成终战谅解备忘录表示欢迎。她说：“这是解决当前局势的一大步，重要的是协议能够正式签署，以及内容获得执行。”

日本也参与英国、法国、德国和意大利领导人发表有关的联合声明，承诺要为确保霍尔木兹海峡的航行自由和安全做出贡献。

高市今年3月访美时，美国总统特朗普要求日本为维护霍尔木兹海峡航行自由出力。当时，高市答道：“日本只能在法律框架内做出回应。”她顾虑的是宪法限制，日本不能出动自卫队到发生冲突的地带。

据资料，日本海上自卫队目前约有19至21艘专业扫雷船舰，被认为是全球反水雷的顶尖力量之一。1991年，自卫队曾在海湾战争停火后参与波斯湾的扫雷行动。2019年美伊冲突期间，日本以“情报搜集”和“研究与调查”为目的向中东部署护航舰，并未参与美国领导的联军。

自民党政策研究会会长小林鹰之指出，根据《自卫队法》，战斗结束后日本可参与扫雷，因此如果霍尔木兹海峡出现航行安全障碍，日本应考虑排出扫雷船舰。

不过，内阁秘书长木原稔星期二（16日）在记者会上，没针对派出自卫队的建议表态，只说政府“尚未做出任何决定”。

一般认为，政府未对是否参与扫雷表态同美伊的谅解备忘录细节尚未公开有关，而且以色列放话不会从黎巴嫩撤军，形势还有待观察。

一名政府官员就对媒体表示担忧。“我希望局势不会发生剧烈变化。我们也需要伊朗政府提供信息，说明水雷的位置和数量。”

日本防长小泉进次郎说，日本的军事行动要获得支持，除了必须等美伊签定停火协议之外，更重要的是须了解风险程度。

《日经新闻》的民意调查显示，日本民众对派兵海外的看法不一。36%的受访者认为，应该在战斗结束后才部署，45%认为不应该派遣。因此，高市政府若要派兵，还必须先说服大多数的国内民众。

Conservative group targeted in SPLC-inspired terror attack demands restitution after DOJ indictment

June 16, 2026 8:38am EDT / Fox News

Shooter Floyd Lee Corkins II said he found the Family Research Council on the SPLC’s list of ‘anti-gay groups’ online

By Peter D’Abrosca Fox News

The head of a Christian, conservative nonprofit whose organization was subject to a violent by a crazed gunman inspired by the SPLC describes that harrowing day.

NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!

A victim of violence inspired by a controversial far-left nonprofit told Fox News Digital he knew the man who shot-up his workplace was motivated by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) before the suspect confessed.

The SPLC has recently come under Justice Department scrutiny for allegedly funneling millions to extremist organizations that they told donors they were fighting — including funding events like KKK cross burnings and the infamous Charlottesville “Unite the Right” rally in 2017.

Tony Perkins is the president of the Family Research Council (FRC), a conservative nonprofit based in Washington, D.C., that was labeled a “hate group” in 2010 by the SPLC for claims it was an anti-LGBT organization.

Just two years later, on Aug. 15, 2012, disaster struck.

Perkins was in a meeting when the building’s security system was triggered.

“The doors closed on our floor, and I heard some commotion, and so I ran out to see what it was, and was told that there was a shooting downstairs,” he recalled of the horrific incident in an interview with Fox News Digital.

He ran down the stairs into the lobby, and saw the carnage.

“By the time I got down there, the police had arrived, and so we saw Leo Johnson, who was our building manager, who was in a pool of blood,” said Perkins.

Johnson had been shot by Floyd Lee Corkins II, then 28, who pulled a gun out of his bag upon entering the building. He got past security by telling them he was interviewing for a position as an intern. Corkins was also found in possession of two fully loaded 15-round magazines, a box of .9mm ammunition and 15 Chick-fil-A chicken sandwiches.

The sandwiches were meant to be smeared on the faces of his victims, as Corkins also believed the Christian-owned restaurant chain was anti-gay.

“It was a shocking day for our staff, especially — there was glass and blood and bullet holes in our lobby,” said Perkins, who is also a pastor and former police officer.

He said he never expected to see anything like that again after he finished his career in law enforcement.

Corkins was taken into federal custody immediately after the attack and charged with committing an act of terrorism while armed, assault with intent to kill while armed and interstate transportation of a firearm and ammunition.

He is currently serving a 25-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to the charges in 2013.

In an interrogation video later released by FRC, investigators asked how the group came to be his target.

“It was, uh — Southern Poverty Law lists, uh anti-gay groups,” Corkins said. “I found them online. I did a little bit of research, went to the website, stuff like that.”

The SPLC was recently indicted for allegedly funneling $4 million donor dollars into shell companies to fund extremist organizations they claimed they were fighting.

Perkins said the SPLC once legitimately fought groups like the KKK, but that they saw their business “drying up” in the 1980s and 1990s. So, according to Perkins, the group had to find a way to keep its legacy of fighting white supremacy alive.

“I think they began to peddle that legacy to those on the left … in particular, beginning around 2010, 2012, when there was a big effort to redefine marriage,” Perkins said. “They wanted to leverage that to help the left by going after conservative groups that were standing in the way, but they needed to hold on to those white supremacist extremist groups, to pin the conservative and Christian groups next to.”

Perkins believes that there wasn’t much of a white supremacy problem, but that it was politically expedient for the SPLC to pretend that there was.

“It was like they were fattening them up, keeping them alive so that they could use them for their bigger political purpose, and that was to be able to help the left advance their agenda by marginalizing and silencing conservative groups,” he said.

Perkins told Fox News Digital he does not want the federal government to shut the SPLC down, but he hopes they’ll be forced to pay restitution for the harm he says they’ve caused.

FRC has had to pay $8 million out of pocket just for heightened security since the day of the shooting.

“So yes, they’re sitting on $750 million. Part of what I hope the government, the federal government, the courts get to is making them pay restitution to their victims.”

The SPLC did not return Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
