Today’s edition of quick hits.
- 鉴于最新经济数据,这一决定很难说是显而易见的选择:“美联储周三将关键利率维持在约3.9%不变,尽管通胀依然顽固居高不下,主席凯文·沃什表示,其政策已开始显现出效果。”
- In light of the latest economic data, this decision was hardly the obvious one: “The Federal Reserve kept its key rate unchanged Wednesday at about 3.9% despite stubbornly high inflation, as Chairman Kevin Warsh suggested its policies are already showing signs of having an impact.”
- 巴西发生惊人转折:“败选的巴西总统候选人弗拉维奥·博索纳罗及其家人周三逃离巴西后,抵达迈阿密。此前48小时里,博索纳罗拒绝向巴西总统路易斯·伊纳西奥·卢拉·达席尔瓦认输,随后又威胁要试图废除选举结果,之后便做出了这一惊人举动。”
- A remarkable turn of events in Brazil: “Defeated Brazilian presidential candidate Flávio Bolsonaro and his family landed in Miami on Wednesday after fleeing Brazil. The stunning move came after 48 hours in which Bolsonaro refused to concede to Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and then threatened to attempt to annul the election result.”
- 相关消息:“巴西最高法院一名法官周二下令警方调查副总统JD·万斯共同创立的一个捐赠网络与弗拉维奥·博索纳罗总统竞选活动之间被指称的关联,调查涉及周日大选前夕的筹备阶段。”
- In related news: “A Brazilian Supreme Court justice on Tuesday ordered a police investigation into alleged ties between a donor network co-founded by Vice President JD Vance and the presidential campaign of Flávio Bolsonaro in the run-up to Sunday’s election.”
- 一场灾难性事件:“周三,一列西班牙高速列车猛烈撞上另一列停在轨道上的列车,造成至少68人死亡,多节车厢被撕裂,这是该国今年发生的第二起致命铁路相撞事故。卡斯蒂利亚-拉曼恰地区政府确认了死亡人数,并表示另有58人需要住院接受治疗。”
- A devastating disaster: “One high-speed Spanish train slammed into another that had stopped on the tracks Wednesday, killing at least 68 people and shredding carriages in the country’s second deadly rail collision this year. The regional government for Castilla La Mancha confirmed the death toll and said another 58 people needed medical treatment in hospital.”
- 一起持续受关注的案件:“三家新闻机构在唐纳德·特朗普总统禁止其进入白宫场地后对其提起诉讼,现又修改了诉讼内容。它们目前要求联邦法官永久恢复其准入权,不仅限于白宫,还包括椭圆形办公室和空军一号等其他区域。这份由MS NOW、CNN和Politico三家新闻机构提交的修改后诉状,是在美国法官蒂莫西·凯利无限期撤销特朗普的禁令并恢复其白宫准入权两周后提出的。”
- A case of ongoing interest: “Three news organizations that sued the White House after President Donald Trump banned them from the grounds have amended their lawsuit. They are now asking a federal judge to permanently restore their access, not just to the White House but to other areas including the Oval Office and Air Force One. The amended complaint filed by the news outlets — MS NOW, CNN and Politico — comes two weeks after U.S. Judge Timothy Kelly indefinitely reversed Trump’s ban and restored their access to the White House.”
此案保密的必要性并不明显:“华盛顿美国检察官办公室周二表示,不会公开联邦探员本月在明尼苏达州联邦众议员伊尔汗·奥马尔住所执行的搜查令。该办公室还请求联邦法官驳回公开该搜查令的请求。”
- The need for secrecy in this case is hardly obvious: “The U.S. attorney’s office in Washington said on Tuesday that it would not unseal a search warrant executed by federal agents at the home of Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota this month. The office also asked a federal judge to deny requests for the warrant’s release.”
白宫在类似案件中确实输了不少:“联邦法官周二裁定,唐纳德·特朗普支持的律师比尔·埃塞利‘非法担任’洛杉矶联邦最高检察官。关于埃塞利任职的裁决不会立即生效,埃塞利表示,最高法院‘最终将决定’其任职的合法性。”
- The White House sure has lost a lot of cases like this one: “A federal judge ruled Tuesday that a Donald Trump-backed lawyer has been ‘unlawfully serving’ as the top federal prosecutor in Los Angeles. The decision regarding Bill Essayli’s service does not immediately take effect, and Essayli said the Supreme Court ‘will ultimately decide’ the legality of his tenure.”
让捍卫民主者彻夜难眠的一点消息:“随着选举日临近,近期事件促使一些联邦调查局探员表达担忧,据七位知悉内部讨论的人士透露,他们担心可能会被命令扣押投票机或采取其他扰乱选举结果的行动。”
- A little something to keep democracy advocates up at night: “As Election Day nears, recent events have prompted some FBI agents to express concern, according to seven people with knowledge of internal discussions among the ranks, that they may be ordered to seize voting machines or take other actions that disrupt election results.”
一位传奇人物的离世:“加利福尼亚州劳工运动的标志性人物、联合农场工人联合会联合创始人多洛雷斯·韦尔塔于周三去世,享年96岁,其家人宣布了这一消息。”明天见。
- The passing of a legend: “Dolores Huerta, an icon of the labor movement in California who co-founded the United Farm Workers, died Wednesday at the age of 96, her family announced.”See you tomorrow.
