Rescue teams continue the desperate search for survivors, some even digging with their hands, as tens of thousands of people are still presumed to be missing in Venezuela five days after twin earthquakes struck. More than 1,400 people have died in the quakes.

Outside of a hospital in Caracas, families scour lists of patients looking for any missing relatives.

Genesis Fonseca was at a hospital to bring soup to her 6-year-old nephew who survived the earthquakes, but his mother did not.

Fonseca said she will miss “everything” about her sister, including the love they had for each other.

In hard hit La Guaira, a coastal city and the epicenter of a dire humanitarian crisis, there’s remnants of people’s lives in the rubble of collapsed homes and apartment buildings – from stuffed animals to a passport and a kindergarten graduation diploma.

“We need more support”

But amid the tragedy, there are moments of hope.

A U.S. search team helped to rescue a mother and her 9-month-old baby from the debris of a collapsed building.

“Against impossible odds, hope endures,” the U.S. State Department wrote in a post it shared on social media, adding that “every life saved is a victory.”

On Saturday, Keyla Zerpa’s nephew, Kenger, was rescued. She told CBS News her two nephews and sister lived in a building that came crashing down and that 11-year-old Kenger was the only survivor.

“We need more support, more help,” Zerpa said, directing her message to the U.S.

U.S. diplomat John Barrett said there are more than 300 American rescuers on the ground in Venezuela.

“We were with Venezuela before the earthquake and we’re even closer to Venezuela after, after the earthquake,” he said.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio said last week that he spoke to Venezuela’s Acting President Delcy Rodríguez and offered the full assistance of the U.S.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Monday ruled in favor of a Mississippi law allowing mail-in ballots to be counted in elections even if they are received after Election Day.

The court was split 5-4 on the ruling, with Justice Amy Coney Barrett writing the majority opinion. She was joined by Chief Justice John Roberts, as well as justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Barrett’s opinion held that Election Day, in the context of federal law, set a deadline for when voters must make a choice regarding their preferred candidate. Relevant laws, however, impose no standard for when ballots must be received to be considered valid.

“The electorate’s choice is made when voting is complete, not when ballots are received,” she wrote. “Election-day statutes say nothing about ballot receipt, and we cannot add to the words Congress chose.”

Justice Samuel Alito, writing his dissent, took a different view of what it means for the electorate to have made a choice.

“If ballots received after election day are added to the set of ballots that dictate the election’s outcome, the electorate’s choice does not occur on election day,” he wrote. “The acceptance of these late-arriving ballots effectively postpones the date on which the electorate’s choice is made.”

If the Supreme Court had ruled that ballots received after election day were invalid, 14 states, three U.S. territories and Washington, D.C. would have been forced to change their voting laws ahead of the midterm elections.

Military ballots, which often arrive after election day, took center stage as the case played out. The Uniformed and Overseas Citizens Absentee Voting Act, the federal law governing military and overseas absentee voting, makes repeated reference to ballot-receipt deadlines under different state laws, something the majority argued would not be the case if Congress had already established a national standard for when ballots need to be received.

“I disagree with counting ballots after election day, but Barrett’s argument is persuasive that federal statutes recognize state leeway in counting ballots after election day and the plaintiffs themselves struggled to agree on the parameters,” conservative broadcaster Erick Erickson said of the decision.

Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., meanwhile, called Barrett’s opinion “shockingly wrong” and “terrible for election integrity.”

During oral arguments for the case, Alito and Justice Brett Kavanaugh, who ultimately joined the dissent, voiced concerns that counting large quantities of ballots after Election Day could shake the public’s trust in election results.

“If the apparent winner the morning after the election ends up losing due to late arriving ballots, charges of a rigged election could explode,” Kavanaugh noted.

Referring to this possibility, Alito argued that “confidence in election outcomes can be seriously undermined” when large numbers of later-arriving ballots impact the results of elections.

The majority, however, did not address these arguments, stating that they were outside the scope of what the court had authority to rule on.

“Finally, plaintiffs assert that requiring ballots to be received by election day protects election integrity and increases voter confidence in election results,” Barrett wrote. “As we have said time and again, however, policy arguments are properly directed to legislatures, not courts.”

“The question today is not whether requiring ballots to be received by election day is a good or bad idea; the question is whether the idea has made its way into the United States Code,” she added.

灰熊逼近一米 加拿大女子靠“狮吼”惊险脱身

2026年6月29日 20:32 / 联合早报

加拿大一女子清晨遛狗时遇上灰熊，灰熊一度用后腿站立，还反复朝她和狗靠近，最近只有约一米。女子只能一边低声喝止，一边慢慢后退，最后惊险脱身。 （取自Wilderness Escape Adventures）

加拿大一名女子早晨遛狗时，遭一只灰熊多次逼近，并一度靠近至约一米。她一边以低沉声音喝止，一边缓慢后退，惊险过程全被手机录下。

《纽约时报》报道，这起事件发生于6月24日。这名未透露姓名的女子当时从艾伯塔省卡纳纳斯基斯的住处外出遛狗，在距离营地约90米的一条碎石车道上发现灰熊，随即按下手机录影键。

视频显示，灰熊一度以后腿站立，并多次朝女子和她牵着的狗逼近。女子不断以低沉声音喝止：“停下！够了！”她一边发声，一边缓慢后退。

当地徒步向导德布卢瓦说，这只灰熊可能还比较年轻，是因为对狗感到好奇才不断靠近。过程中，女子至少大喊或发出声音40次，试图把熊吓退，但灰熊也在多次朝她逼近。

约一分钟后，灰熊闪到一道门后方，女子退到停放车辆处后跑开。她随后躲进附近一顶帐篷，并在那里停留约15分钟，直到灰熊转而追赶一头驼鹿。

明尼苏达州北美熊中心助理主任彼得（Spencer Peter）说，面对灰熊时，一般经验法则是趴下装死，因为棕熊通常是在感到受威胁时攻击。不过，在有狗在场的情况下，视频中女子的应对方式是合适的。

彼得说，狗和熊天生不和，许多熊袭击事件都与狗有关；视频中的灰熊似乎更关注狗，而不是人。他说，除非宠物狗训练得非常好，否则人与狗不可能一起完美装死，若当时直接躺下，情况可能反而更糟。

当局提醒公众，进入熊类活跃区域时应结伴出行、制造声响、给宠物系上牵绳，并随身携带防熊喷雾。

Who is Lisa Cook? The central bank governor at the heart of the Supreme Court’s Trump-Fed showdown

Lisa Cook’s ascension to the Federal Reserve was historic from the start.

Appointed by former President Joe Biden in 2022, she became the first black woman to serve as a governor on the Fed board — a seven-member panel that sets national interest rates and oversees the banking system.

Now, she stands at the center of another historic moment, as the Supreme Court ruled Monday against President Donald Trump’s effort to fire her, preserving long-standing protections around the central bank’s independence.

Cook’s legal fight traces back to late August, when Trump said he was firing her from the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, the seven-member body that helps set monetary policy and oversee the U.S. banking system.

He alleged she misrepresented information tied to a trio of mortgages she obtained before joining the central bank. Cook has denied any wrongdoing and has not been charged with a crime.

She sued Trump in federal court in Washington, D.C., to block her removal from the nation’s most powerful central bank. On Sept. 9, a district court judge barred Trump from firing her while the case proceeds, a decision later upheld by a federal appeals court.

A RARE FILING IN THE LISA COOK–TRUMP CASE COULD SWAY SUPREME COURT JUSTICES

Before joining the Fed board, the Oxford alumna and UC Berkeley-trained economist built a career in academia, including faculty roles at Harvard University and Michigan State University.

A graduate of Spelman College, Cook has been described by American economist Barry Eichengreen as “part economist and historian,” with command of several languages, including French, Russian, Spanish and Wolof — a widely spoken language in Senegal.

Cook has also held senior roles in government, serving as a senior economist on then-President Barack Obama’s Council of Economic Advisers from 2011 to 2012.

Before that, she served as a senior adviser on finance and development in the Treasury Department’s Office of International Affairs.

She joined the Fed board in May 2022 and was reappointed in September 2023 for a term that runs through January 2038.

Supreme Court takes up dispute over Arizona voting restrictions

June 29, 2026 / 11:20 AM EDT / CBS News

Washington — The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to decide whether federal law bars Arizona from imposing tightened voting rules, including a measure that requires documentary proof of citizenship to register to vote on a state form.

The case sets up a high-stakes dispute over the state’s efforts to tighten its voting requirements. It is a crime for non-U.S. citizens to vote in federal and state elections, but some states have sought to implement new restrictions aimed at ensuring noncitizens are not on their voter rolls amid claims of election fraud by President Trump.

The Supreme Court will hear arguments in its next term, which begins in October.

The dispute before the Supreme Court involves two Arizona laws that were adopted by the state legislature in 2022. The first requires prospective voters who are registering to vote on a state form to provide proof of citizenship, and the second involves procedures for state election officials to review voter rolls and cancel the voter registrations of noncitizens.

Prospective voters can also register using a federal form, which does not require proof of citizenship. In Arizona, applicants completing the federal form that do not provide citizenship proof may be registered as voting in only federal elections, but are not eligible to vote for president or by mail. There were more than 19,000 Arizonans who had not supplied proof of citizenship and were registered as “federal-only” voters as of July 2023, according to court records.

After the measures were approved by the Arizona legislature, the Democratic National Committee, the Arizona Democratic Party and nonprofit organizations filed lawsuits seeking to block their enforcement. The plaintiffs argued that the provisions violated or were preempted by the National Voting Registration Act, as well as a 2018 consent decree between Arizona’s secretary of state and the Maricopa County recorder.

A federal district court said election officials could not reject state voter registration forms that lacked proof of citizenship, citing the consent decree, and ruled that under the NVRA, Arizona could not systematically cancel voter registrations within 90 days of a federal election.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit considered the district court’s earlier injunction and last year, it went on to uphold that order barring enforcement of Arizona’s voter-registration laws. A divided panel of judges on the 9th Circuit agreed that the proof-of-citizenship requirement for prospective voters registering for federal elections on the state form violates the NVRA, and said the requirement for county recorders to reject state-form applicants without citizenship proof violates the 2018 consent decree.

The court also held that the law bars county recorders from systematically cancelling the registrations of voters who they have “reason to believe” are not citizens within 90 days of a federal election.

The Supreme Court considered Arizona’s voter-registration laws ahead of the 2024 election, when Arizona Republicans and the Republican National Committee turned to the high court for emergency relief. The high court allowed the state to enforce the proof-of-citizenship requirement for the state form but declined to allow enforcement of its rules requiring proof of citizenship to vote for president or by mail.

Arizona has continued to enforce the citizenship rule for registering to vote on the state form while litigation has continued.

In a separate case involving Virginia’s voter-removal program, the Supreme Court in October 2024 allowed the state to move forward with its removal of roughly 1,600 alleged noncitizens from its voter rolls. Virginia had launched its program designed to clean up its statewide voter registration lists exactly 90 days before the 2024 federal elections.

Republicans in Arizona returned to the Supreme Court earlier this year when they appealed decisions in three different cases involving the state’s voting requirements. The Trump administration urged the high court to take up just one of the appeals, from the Republican National Committee, which involves the proof-of-citizenship requirement for the state form and the program to purge its voter rolls.

伯纳姆承诺改变治国方式 放权英国各地提高生活水平

（伦敦综合电）英国新任首相热门候选人伯纳姆承诺改变国家治理方式，将权力从伦敦下放到各地，让地方政府掌控社会住房、福利和教育等方面的预算，从而提高全国人民的生活水平。

伯纳姆星期一（6月29日）在他曾任市长的曼彻斯特发表宣布竞选首相后的首份政策演讲，公布旨在提高人民生活水平的“10年计划”，以及关于青年就业的提案，誓要让英国重回正轨。

现任首相斯塔默上周一（22日）公布卸任计划后，伯纳姆成为炙手可热的继任候选人。若无其他工党议员加入竞争，伯纳姆预计会在7月20日就任首相。

伯纳姆说，英国是全球权力最集中的国家之一，而他将采取不同举措，下放权力给地方。

“北方唐宁街10号”协助各地资源重新分配 实现地区复兴

拥有“北方之王”标签的伯纳姆，早前提出将首相府部分职能迁至曼彻斯特，打造“北方唐宁街10号”。他说，这个机构会成为英国各地权力和资源重新分配的管道。

他强调，他的“10年使命”旨在提高全国各地的生活水平。为了实现这一目标，“北方唐宁街10号”会支持各地区完成三项任务：基本公共事业改革、再工业化，以及地区复兴。

斯塔默的工党政府未能解决民众担忧的住房问题，遭到诟病。伯纳姆直言，英国的“住房陷阱”对公共财政造成毁灭般的影响，而“唐宁街10号”会负责二战后最大规模的公屋建设项目。

他也表明会改革商业税率，以便扶持酒吧和商业街商户，让它们成为“英国复兴的象征”。

反对派此前敦促伯纳姆阐明执政计划，并澄清他的政策会否偏离工党2024年大选时的竞选宣言。

伯纳姆强调，他的承诺会建立在稳健的公共财政和现行财政规则约束基础上，将带来“英国政体在我们有生之年发生的最大变革”，但会与工党竞选纲领保持一致。

他也许诺，纳税人缴纳的每一英镑，都会更好地服务于纳税人自身，这也完全适用于国防投资计划。

朝无人作战转型 英国修改驱逐舰更换计划

英国正朝着无人机作战和精进前线作战能力进行更广泛转型。国防部长贾维斯星期天（28日）宣布取消更换老旧驱逐舰的计划，转而采购至少六艘通用作战舰，作为无人系统的控制中心。

国防部称，这些通用作战舰将协调空中、水面和水下的无人系统，由英国创新者共同研发，将在英国本土建造，既能支持全国就业，又能为皇家海军提供专为现代战争打造的作战能力。
