在载有五人的泰坦号潜水器失踪数天后，把他们运送到沉船现场的小型潜艇发生灾难性爆炸，五人全部遇难。残骸位于距离泰坦尼克号船头大约1,600英尺的海底，目前还无法确定泰坦号何时发生爆炸。然而，美国海军在潜艇失踪后重新分析声纳数据时发现了一个“异常”，很可能是这艘小型潜艇的致命爆炸。这艘长22英尺的潜水器正在前往泰坦尼克号遗址的途中与支援船失去联系。运营泰坦号的OceanGate公司发布了一份声明，称旅行者们“不幸失去了生命”。5名遇难者包括OceanGate公司的CEO斯托克顿·拉什、巴基斯坦商人沙扎达·达伍德和他的儿子苏莱曼·达伍德、英国冒险家哈米什·哈丁以及法国深海探险家和泰坦尼克号专家保罗-亨利·纳尔热奥莱。白宫向在泰坦号上失去生命的人们的家属和亲人表示深切的哀悼。这次复杂的搜救任务引起了国际关注，并涉及来自美国、加拿大、法国和英国的人员。The five people aboard the Titan submersible that had been missing for days were killed when the small vessel carrying them to the wreckage site had a catastrophic implosion. The debris was found about 1,600 feet from the Titanic's bow on the seafloor, and it is too early to tell when the Titan imploded. However, an "anomaly" detected by the U.S. Navy was likely the small watercraft's fatal blast. The anomaly was picked up when the Navy went back and analyzed its acoustic data after the submersible was reported missing that day. The 22-foot vehicle was on a dive to the Titanic site when it lost contact with its support ship Sunday morning. OceanGate, the company that operated the Titan, issued a statement saying the travelers "have sadly been lost." The other four people believed to have perished were Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, British adventurer Hamish Harding, and French deep-sea explorer and Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet. The White House expressed its heartfelt condolences to the families and loved ones of those who lost their lives on the Titan. The complex search and rescue mission attracted international attention and involved personnel from the U.S., Canada, France, and the United Kingdom.
美国最高法院确认了拜登总统将政府的移民执法政策集中在那些构成威胁或最近进入该国的人身上的权力。这是该法院一年内的第二个决定，确认了行政部门在移民问题上的权力。法官们表示，国土安全部有权重点关注逮捕最近越境者和犯下暴力犯罪的人，而不是那些在这里居住多年的其他数百万非公民。拜登政府的政策与特朗普政府的政策有所不同，后者认为任何非法居住在美国的人都可以被驱逐出境。该决定以8比1的票数通过，萨缪尔·A·阿利托大法官是唯一的反对者。这个决定可能增强总统在其他法律领域中的执法优先权。如果法院批准了这个诉讼，我们可以预计未来几年将会有对所提法律的执行不足的指责，不论是毒品法、枪支法、妨碍司法公正法还是其他类似的法律。法院面临的其他重要案件之一还涉及关于州政府是否具有合法地位来质疑拜登另一个重要优先事项的问题：减免约4000亿美元的学生贷款。这个案件以及关于大学招生中涉及种族的决策的裁决预计将在下周内宣布，因为法院试图在六月底前完成工作。下一轮决定将在周二公布。The U.S. Supreme Court has affirmed President Biden's authority to focus the government's immigration enforcement policies on those who are a threat or recently entered the country. The decision, the second in a year, affirmed the executive branch's power in matters of immigration. The justices said the Department of Homeland Security has the authority to focus on arresting recent border crossers and those who commit violent crimes, rather than the millions of other noncitizens who have lived here for years. The Biden administration policy is a departure from that of the Trump administration, which said anyone in the country illegally could be targeted for deportation. The decision was 8-1, with Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. as the lone dissenter. The decision could enhance presidential discretion in enforcement priorities in other areas of law. If the Court green-lighted this suit, we could anticipate complaints in future years about alleged Executive Branch under-enforcement of any similarly worded laws, whether they be drug laws, gun laws, obstruction of justice laws, or the like. One of the major remaining cases before the court also involves questions about the legal standing of states to challenge another Biden priority: forgiving about $400 billion in student loan debt. That case, as well as a decision about race-conscious decisions in university admissions, is due within the next week, as the court tries to complete its work by the end of June. The next decisions will be announced Tuesday.
2023年6月22日，印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪受到美国总统乔·拜登和第一夫人吉尔·拜登的热烈欢迎，进行了一次盛大的国事访问。莫迪在2005年担任古吉拉特邦首席部长时曾被拒绝签发美国签证，原因是他被指控未能阻止针对少数穆斯林的致命骚乱。然而，现在作为世界上最大的民主国家的领导人，莫迪更加受到拜登政府的青睐，因为他们寻求对抗中国的全球影响力。在国事访问期间，莫迪在纽约联合国总部外的黄色瑜伽垫上练习瑜伽。此次活动是为了庆祝国际瑜伽日，莫迪说服联合国每年都举办该活动。拜登夫妇还邀请了几位外国贵宾进行国事访问，包括布里吉特·马克龙、金健熙和韩国总统尹锡悦。莫迪的访问以与拜登举行的联合新闻发布会为标志，他在会上回答了一位印度记者和一位《华尔街日报》记者的提问。与作为国事访问一部分通常举行的发布会相比，这次新闻发布会规模较小，但莫迪的顾问们对此并不满意。莫迪的国事访问引起了人权倡导者的愤怒，他们指责他对印度的穆斯林和其他少数群体发动了广泛的袭击。拜登政府指责印度政府参与非法和武断的杀戮，限制言论自由，并允许针对宗教、种族和少数民族的暴力行为。在与拜登举行的联合新闻发布会上，莫迪坚称印度没有任何歧视，并表示民主在印度的基因中。June. 22nd. 2023, Narendra Modi, the Indian prime minister, was welcomed to the White House by President Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden for a state visit filled with pomp and pageantry. Modi was denied a visa to enter the US in 2005, when he was the chief minister of Gujarat, over charges that he had failed to stop deadly riots against minority Muslims. However, now that he's the leader of the world's largest democracy, the Biden administration has been embracing him more closely as it seeks to counter China's global influence. During his state visit, Modi practiced yoga on a yellow mat outside the United Nations headquarters in New York. The event was held in recognition of the International Day of Yoga, which Modi persuaded the U.N. to observe annually. The Bidens hosted a few foreign dignitaries for a state visit, including Brigitte Macron, Kim Keon Hee, and South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol. Modi's visit was marked by a joint news conference with Biden, where he addressed questions from an Indian journalist and a Wall Street Journal reporter. The news conference was a scaled-down affair compared to those usually held as part of a state visit, but Modi's advisers were far from thrilled with the idea. Modi's state visit infuriated human rights advocates who blame him for widespread attacks against India's Muslims and other minorities. Biden's administration has accused India's government of participating in unlawful and arbitrary killings, restricting freedom of speech, and allowing violence against religious, racial, and ethnic minorities. During his joint news conference with Biden, Modi insisted there was no discrimination in India and that democracy is in India's DNA.中国国家主席习近平在北京人民大会堂与美国国务卿安东尼·布林肯会晤，强调在处理中美关系时，对历史、人民和世界有责任感的重要性。习近平强调两国需要找到相处之道，因为人类的未来取决于他们能否找到相处之道。国际社会对当前中美关系的状态表示关切，并期望两国能够和平、合作共存。习近平还强调，大国竞争不代表时代的潮流，也不能解决美国面临的问题或世界面临的挑战。他强调世界是一个和平、发展导向和互利共赢的合作环境，中国尊重美国的利益，但美国也不能损害中国的合法权益。习近平呼吁美国采取理性和务实的态度，与中国共同努力，将积极表态转化为行动，稳定和改善中美关系。世界现在将拭目以待，看中美两国能否妥善处理彼此的关系。Chinese President Xi Jinping met with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing, highlighting the importance of a sense of responsibility for history, people, and the world in handling China-U.S. relations. Xi emphasized the need for the two countries to find the right way to get along, as the future of humanity depends on their ability to find the right way to get along. The international community is concerned about the current state of China-U.S. relations and expects them to coexist peacefully and cooperatively. Xi also emphasized that major-country competition does not represent the trend of the times and cannot solve the United States' problems or challenges facing the world. He emphasized that the world is a peaceful, development-oriented, and win-win cooperation, and China respects the US interests and must not hurt China's legitimate rights and interests. Xi called for the US to adopt a rational and pragmatic attitude and work with China in the same direction, translating positive statements into actions to stabilize and improve China-U.S. relations. The world will now wait and see if China and the US can properly deal with their relations.
3M与美国各城市达成了一项价值103亿美元的和解协议，解决了它们声称该公司用"永久化学物质"污染饮用水的问题。该和解协议涵盖了对任何程度检测到或可能在未来检测到该化学物质的供水机构的修复。3M正面临约4000起由州和市政府提起的有关PFAS污染的诉讼，并未承认任何责任。该和解协议需要法院批准，并将终结法律索赔，包括佛罗里达州斯图尔特市提起的一起测试案件，原定于6月5日在联邦法官面前进行审理。此次和解将在帮助城市解决PFAS水污染方面起到很大作用，但当地纳税人仍将承担大部分清理费用。该和解协议需要南卡罗来纳州的联邦法官批准，原告方签署协议，并且法官还必须批准代表原告的几十家律师事务所提出的任何费用请求的合理性。3M表示将继续通过法庭辩护或通过协商解决方式处理其他PFAS诉讼，具体取决于情况。研究人员一直试图对PFAS在美国造成的健康损害进行经济评估，一项2022年的研究发现，由于PFAS暴露导致的疾病治疗费用可能高达626亿美元。3M has reached a $10.3 billion settlement with US cities and towns over their claims that the company contaminated drinking water with Forever Chemicals. The settlement covers remediation to water suppliers that detected the chemical at any level or may do so in the future. 3M is facing about 4,000 lawsuits by states and municipalities for PFAS contamination and does not admit any liability. The settlement requires court approval and would put an end to legal claims, including a test case brought by the City of Stuart, Fla., that had been scheduled for a trial before a federal judge on June 5. The settlement will go far in helping cities and towns address PFAS water contamination, but local taxpayers will still be left footing much of the bills for cleanup. The settlement needs approval by the federal judge in South Carolina, the plaintiffs to sign on, and the judge must also approve the reasonableness of any fee request from the dozens of law firms representing plaintiffs in the litigation. 3M said it would continue to address other PFAS litigation by defending itself in court or through negotiated resolutions, all as appropriate. Researchers have sought to put a dollar value on the health harms from PFAS in the United States, with a 2022 study finding the costs of treating diseases attributable to PFAS exposure to be as much as $62.6 billion.
美国联邦贸易委员会（FTC）已对亚马逊提起诉讼，指控这家电商巨头通过具有误导性用户界面设计，欺骗数百万消费者注册其Prime订阅服务。该指控在美国华盛顿州西区联邦地方法院提起，指称亚马逊使用了称为“黑暗模式”的操纵性、强制性或欺骗性用户界面设计，以欺骗消费者订阅自动续费的Prime服务。FTC的投诉还声称，亚马逊有意让取消订阅变得比加入Prime更困难，创造了一个“迷宫般”的取消过程。此次诉讼标志着FTC采取的最重要措施，针对伤害消费者的商业行为，通过心理策略要么吸引他们进入，要么通过困住他们。该指控针对了亚马逊业务的一个关键领域，在这个领域，亚马逊在2021年超过了2亿付费Prime订户，部分原因是其在原创内容和更快的配送方面的投资。亚马逊称FTC的指控“事实和法律上都是错误的”，并表示在指控被提交之前并未收到通知。指控还声称，亚马逊让加入Prime只需两次点击即可，而且通常将有关循环账单的细节埋藏在小字里。这是FTC主席Lina Khan对亚马逊提起的首个重大诉讼，她在2017年的一篇有影响力的期刊文章中提出了关于科技平台对竞争影响的更广泛的讨论，强调了涉及亚马逊的潜在反垄断问题。The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has filed a lawsuit against Amazon, alleging that the e-commerce giant has deceived millions of consumers into signing up for its Prime subscription service through deceptive user interface designs. The complaint, filed in the US District Court for the Western District of Washington, alleged that Amazon used manipulative, coercive, or deceptive user-interface designs called 'dark patterns' to trick consumers into enrolling in automatically-renewing Prime subscriptions. The FTC complaint also claimed that Amazon deliberately made it harder to cancel subscriptions than to enroll in Prime, creating a "labyrinthine" cancellation process. This lawsuit marks the FTC's most significant step against business practices that harm consumers by either luring them in or keeping them trapped using psychological gimmicks. The complaint targets a key area of Amazon's business, where the company topped 200 million paid Prime subscribers in 2021, fueled in part by investments in original content and faster shipping. Amazon called the FTC's claims "false on the facts and the law" and said it did not receive notice before the complaint was filed. The complaint also alleged that Amazon made it easy to sign up for Prime in just two clicks and often buried specifics about recurring bills in fine print. This marks the first major lawsuit against the company by FTC Chair Lina Khan, who helped kickstart a wider debate on tech platforms' impact on competition with an influential journal article in 2017 highlighting potential antitrust issues involving Amazon.
伯明翰市已批准联合其他八个社区，共同就密歇根州关于噪声车辆的法律不力提出投诉。伯明翰市警察局长声称，由于汽车爱好者绕过工厂系统和新车型提供的即时仪表盘设置使车辆变得更吵，伯明翰的警察今年春季已经开出了超过1,000张超速、鲁莽驾驶和其他违规行为的罚单，针对的是噪声排放过大的车辆。罗亚尔奥克市的市长和市经理已向州议员发函，要求加强州法律，以便警察更容易对噪声车辆开出罚单。奥克兰县伍德沃德走廊的两位州议员正在提出法案来限制车辆噪音。健康专家表示，噪声车辆给司机增加了压力，打扰了附近居民的生活，影响了学龄儿童的睡眠。马萨诸塞州综合医院2019年的一项研究发现，生活在高水平的“交通噪声”附近的人心率、血压更高，动脉发炎更严重，心脏病发作的几率更高。间歇性噪声，如偶尔的热血汽车引擎轰鸣声，比持续不断的噪音更具危害性，即使分贝水平大致相同。 Birmingham has approved a proclamation for eight other communities to file a joint complaint about Michigan's weak law on loud vehicles. Birmingham's police chief claims vehicles are louder due to car buffs circumventing factory systems and new models offering instant dashboard settings to rev the roar. Birmingham's cops wrote over 1,000 tickets this spring for speeding, reckless driving, and other violations targeting loud exhaust. Royal Oak's mayor and city manager sent letters to state lawmakers to toughen state laws, making it easier for cops to ticket loud vehicles. Two state lawmakers from the Woodward Corridor in Oakland County are introducing bills to curb vehicle noise. Health experts say loud vehicles add stress to drivers and upset people living nearby, disrupting sleep of school-age children. A 2019 study by Massachusetts General Hospital found that those living near high levels of "transportation noise" are likely to have higher heart rates, blood pressure, increased arterial inflammation, and more heart attacks. Intermittent noise, such as the occasional hot rod's jarring roar, is more harmful than nonstop noise, even when decibel levels are roughly equivalent.
