  • 特朗普签署行政令将安大略湖更名为“美利坚湖”

    华盛顿讯——总统特朗普周四签署行政令,将安大略湖更名为“美利坚湖”,兑现了他本周早些时候在社交媒体上发出的威胁。

    “我们将立即把安大略湖的名称改为美利坚湖,”总统在签署该命令前说道。

    本周,特朗普在真相社交(Truth Social)上表示,美国正在“认真考虑”更改湖泊名称,并发布了一张划掉“安大略湖”字样的地图。他还称,美国不指望再“和安大略省做太多生意”。周四在椭圆形办公室宣布的这一举措,是特朗普在对加拿大发动贸易战期间的最新动作。

    该命令要求内政部长道格·伯古姆更新地理名称信息系统(GNIS),以体现此次更名。地理名称信息系统与美国地名委员会合作,统一联邦使用的地理名称。总统无法强迫其他国家或国际机构使用“美利坚湖”这一名称,但可以要求联邦政府如此做。

    有记者问及特朗普此次行政令向加拿大传递了何种信号。

    “没有任何信号,”他说道,随后补充道,“如你所知,加拿大在贸易上占我们便宜已经很久了,非常非常可悲。甚至在军事方面也是如此。你知道,我们毫无代价地保卫加拿大。”

    加拿大尚未对该行政令作出回应。

    “安大略”一名源自原住民语言。据大湖文化知识中心介绍,该词来自易洛魁语“oniatarí:io”,意为“闪耀之湖”。

    周六,针对葡萄酒和乳制品等部分加拿大进口商品的50%关税正式生效;周一,特朗普宣布将于明年1月起对所有加拿大钢铁和汽车进口商品加征50%关税。

    作为回应,加拿大总理马克·卡尼宣布,从9月8日起,加拿大将对价值数十亿美元的美国商品开始征收最高达50%的对等关税。

    特朗普还曾试图将北美最高峰——阿拉斯加的迪纳利峰——改回麦金利山。尽管联邦政府无法强迫其他国家或私营企业认可地理名称信息系统的更名结果,但当年特朗普试图将墨西哥湾更名为“美利坚湾”时,有一些私营实体采用了新名称。

    尽管如此,在美联社拒绝使用“美利坚湾”这一名称后,白宫对其进行了惩罚,限制该社记者进入白宫和其他新闻机构均可进入的总统活动空间。

    周四,特朗普还威胁要为一片大洋更名。

    “现在我们只需要搞定一片大洋,”他说,“所以或许我们得把大西洋——或者——太平洋的名字改了。”

    Trump signs executive order to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America”

    August 27, 2026 / 2:35 PM EDT / CBS News

    By Kathryn Watson
    Kathryn Watson is a politics reporter for CBS News Digital, based in Washington, D.C.

    Washington — President Trump on Thursday signed an executive order to rename Lake Ontario “Lake America,” making good on a threat he made on social media earlier this week.

    “We’re going to be changing the name of Lake Ontario, effective immediately, to Lake America,” the president said before he signed the order.

    On Truth Social, the president said this week that the U.S. was giving “serious consideration” to changing the name and posted a map that crossed out the label “Lake Ontario.” He also said the U.S. doesn’t expect to be “doing much business with Ontario any longer.” The announcement in the Oval Office Thursday is the president’s latest move amid his trade war with Canada.

    The order directs Interior Secretary Doug Burgum to update the Geographic Names Information System to reflect the name change. The GNIS works with the U.S. Board on Geographic Names to standardize geographic names for federal use. The president can’t force other countries or international bodies to call it “Lake America,” but he can require the federal government to do so.

    Mr. Trump was asked what message he’s sending to Canada with this executive order.

    “No message,” he said, but added, “As you know, Canada has been ripping us off for a long time on trade, very, very sadly. Even the military. You know, we defend Canada for nothing.”

    Canada has yet to respond to the executive order.

    The name “Ontario” has Indigenous roots. The word comes from the Iroquoian word “oniatarí:io,” meaning “lake of shining waters,” according to the Center for Great Lakes Literacy.

    On Saturday, 50% tariffs on some Canadian imports like wine and dairy kicked in, and on Monday, the president announced 50% tariffs on all Canadian steel and automotive imports starting in January.

    In response, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announcedthat starting Sept. 8, Canada will begin imposing matching tariffs of up to 50% on billions of dollars of U.S. goods.

    Mr. Trump also sought to change North America’s highest mountain peak, Denali in Alaska, back to Mount McKinley. Although the federal government can’t force other countries or private businesses to recognize the GNIS, whenMr. Trump sought to change the Gulf of Mexicoto the “Gulf of America,” some private entities adopted the new name.

    Still, the White House punished the Associated Press after it declined to use “Gulf of America,” restricting its reporters’ access to White House and presidential spaces available to other news outlets.

    On Thursday, Mr. Trump threatened to rename an ocean, too.

    “Now all we need is an ocean,” he said. “So maybe we’ll have to change the name of the Atlantic and—or— the Pacific.”

  • 密歇根州民主党总检察长转而批评埃尔赛义德,警告其“令我非常反感”的心态


    2026年8月27日 美国东部时间上午10:53 / 福克斯新闻

    密歇根州总检察长达娜·内塞尔表示,这位民主党参议院候选人应就其针对圣殿以色列会堂袭击事件的言论公开道歉

    作者:安德鲁·马克·米勒 福克斯新闻

    密歇根州民主党总检察长达娜·内塞尔正对本党参议院候选人阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德表达担忧,称其针对密歇根州一所犹太会堂未遂恐怖袭击的回应似乎在为“国内恐怖主义”开脱,并警告其党内日益抬头的反以色列情绪。

    自2019年起担任密歇根州总检察长的内塞尔,在接受《大西洋月刊》大卫·弗鲁姆的长篇采访时表示,作为犹太人,她在出席本州民主党代表大会时感到不安全,部分原因是“民主党内部存在大量反犹太主义情绪”。

    内塞尔特别抨击了埃尔赛义德对今年早些时候密歇根州犹太会堂袭击事件的反应。联邦调查人员称,一名真主党煽动并激进化的枪手驾车撞入礼拜场所,企图杀害尽可能多的犹太人。

    “但你知道,针对这起事件的反应,显然有很多人迅速发声谴责。但最令人担忧的,当然是我们的联邦参议员候选人发表的声明,他说‘受伤的人会伤害他人’,”内塞尔解释道。“我们很多人都认为这是在为一名企图杀害100多名学龄前儿童的人开脱。这种心态令我非常反感。”

    内塞尔随后回顾了自己对2019年基督城清真寺大屠杀的应对措施:她造访了迪尔伯恩的一座清真寺,头戴头巾以示尊重,并明确谴责了伊斯兰恐惧症。她将这一应对方式与埃尔赛义德对圣殿以色列会堂袭击事件的反应进行了对比。

    “我不会去纠结,比如,杀害这些人的凶手的动机是什么,他是否有心理健康问题?”内塞尔说。“他是否曾与穆斯林有过不愉快的经历?我只是明确地谴责了这一行为,我认为人们在应对圣殿以色列会堂袭击事件时也应该这么做。你不能为这种国内恐怖主义行为找借口。”

    内塞尔称赞埃尔赛义德近几个月来对犹太领袖的外联工作,但表示他应该就袭击事件后的言论公开道歉。

    “我认为私下里,他会说他后悔发表了那些言论,”内塞尔说。“但现在已经快到8月底了,他仍然没有收回这些声明,没有说‘我说错了’或者‘我现在意识到了这些言论造成的伤害’。这让我担心他实际上是认可这些言论的。”

    内塞尔敦促埃尔赛义德承认自己错了,倾听犹太利益相关者的意见,并公开改变立场,正如她在面对自己过去的无知时所做的那样。她表示,她还敦促他更好地了解犹太宗教信仰,并指出埃尔赛义德在初选后提到“与犹太人共度逾越节共餐”,而逾越节期间人们刻意不食用面包。

    “但我问过,你能不能多了解一点我们的宗教,这样你就能理解了?”内塞尔说。“你能不能多了解一点,或许超出你的信息茧房告诉你的关于以色列的历史以及它与犹太人民的关系?”

    “因为现在,当我和他交谈时,似乎真的缺乏对这些事情的历史知识、政治知识和宗教知识。再说一次,我也承认我们所有人都有机会学习更多。”

    内塞尔明确表示,她不打算支持本州的共和党参议院候选人迈克·罗杰斯,并称“砍掉自己的右臂”也不会投票给他,因为“让共和党在参议院占据多数席位极其危险”。

    “至于阿卜杜勒,我想说的是:我们在总体信仰、原则和政策方面有很多共同点,”内塞尔说。“我认为这一点很重要,我认为强调并重申这一事实很重要。相信我,在我的个人信仰、政治信仰以及关于美国和美国参议院应该如何发展的哲学信仰方面,我与阿卜杜勒·埃尔赛义德的共同点远比与迈克·罗杰斯多得多。”

    福克斯新闻数字频道已联系埃尔赛义德的竞选团队置评。

    今年3月,除了引发内塞尔不满的争议性视频声明外,埃尔赛义德还发表了一份声明,称他在得知犹太会堂袭击事件后“感到震惊和心碎”。

    “致我的犹太兄弟姐妹,你们有权在和平中敬拜,”埃尔赛义德说。“你们有权早上送孩子去犹太会堂,晚上平安回家。你们有权知道自己的宗教身份和信仰实践受到尊重。美国没有反犹太主义的容身之地。因此,今天以及每一天,我都与所有珍视按自己选择的方式祈祷的权利的人们站在一起,反对一切形式的反犹太主义和仇恨。”

    埃尔赛义德因反复抨击以色列和美国以色列公共事务委员会,以及公开与左翼流媒体主播哈桑·皮克尔交往,而遭到犹太团体、民主党同僚和共和党人的广泛批评。

    Michigan Dem AG turns on El-Sayed over terror attack response, warns of mentality that ‘bothers me a lot’

    August 27, 2026 10:53am EDT / Fox News

    Michigan’s Attorney General Dana Nessel says the Democratic Senate nominee should publicly retract his remarks following Temple Israel attack

    By Andrew Mark Miller Fox News

    Michigan’s Democratic Attorney General Dana Nessel is voicing concerns about her party’s Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed, saying his response to the attempted terrorist attack on a Michigan synagogue appeared to make excuses for “domestic terrorism” as she warns about increasing anti-Israel sentiments in her party.

    Nessel, Michigan’s attorney general since 2019, spoke at length in an interview with The Atlantic’s David Frum about her position that she doesn’t feel safe as a Jewish person attending her own state party’s convention due in part to “an enormous amount of anti-Semitism within the Democratic Party.”

    Nessel specifically took issue with El-Sayed’s response to the synagogue attack in Michigan earlier this year when federal investigators say a gunman inspired and radicalized by Hezbollah crashed into the place of worship seeking to kill as many Jewish people as he could.

    “But, you know, the reaction to it, obviously there’s a lot of people who were quick to call this out. But, you know, I think most concerning, of course, was the statement that our nominee for U.S. Senate made, which was that ‘hurt people hurt people,’” Nessel explained. “And a lot of us perceived that as sort of making excuses for somebody who sought to murder over 100 pre-K schoolchildren. And that’s the kind of mentality that bothers me a lot.”

    MICHIGAN’S DEMOCRATIC AG REFUSES TO ATTEND UPCOMING CONVENTION OVER HARASSMENT CONCERNS

    Nessel went on to reflect on how she responded to the 2019 Christchurch mosque massacre by visiting a Dearborn mosque, wearing a hijab out of respect and unequivocally condemning Islamophobia. She contrasted that response with El-Sayed’s reaction to the Temple Israel attack.

    “I didn’t try to get into, like, what were the motivations of the person who killed these people, and did he have mental-health issues?” Nessel said. “Did he have bad experiences with Muslims? I just condemned it unequivocally, and I think that’s what people should have done with Temple Israel. You can’t make excuses for that kind of domestic terrorism.”

    Nessel credited El-Sayed for his outreach to Jewish leaders in recent months but expressed the belief that he should publicly retract his comments in the aftermath of the attack.

    ANTISEMITIC VIOLENCE REACHES DEADLIEST LEVEL SINCE 1994, NEW GLOBAL REPORT FINDS

    “I think privately, he will say that he regrets having made those remarks,” Nessel said. “But here we are, it’s almost the end of August, and he still has not withdrawn those statements and said,I misspoke,or,I now recognize the harm that I caused by making those statements.And it has me concerned that he really stands by them.”

    Nessel urged El-Sayed to acknowledge he was wrong, listen to Jewish stakeholders and publicly change course, as she said she has done when confronted with her own past ignorance. She said she has also urged him to better understand Jewish religious beliefs, pointing to his post-primary reference to “breaking bread with Jews at Passover,” when bread is intentionally not eaten during the holiday.

    “But I asked, could you learn a little bit more about our religion so that you understand it?” Nessel said. “Could you learn a little bit more than maybe what your bubble is telling you about the history of Israel and its relationship to the Jewish people?”

    “Because now, when I speak to him, there seems to be a real dearth of like, again, historical knowledge, political knowledge, and religious knowledge about all of those things. And again, I leave room for the fact that all of us have the opportunity to learn more.”

    Nessel made it clear that she is not planning to support the state’s Republican Senate candidate, Mike Rogers, and that she would “amputate [her] right arm” before voting for him because “keeping a Republican majority in the Senate is incredibly dangerous.”

    “With Abdul, I will say this: We have a lot in common in terms of our general beliefs and principles and policies,” Nessel said. “And I think it’s important to say that, and I think it’s important to underline and underscore that fact. Trust me; I have much more in common with Abdul El-Sayed than I do with Mike Rogers in terms of my personal beliefs, my political beliefs, my philosophical beliefs about what should happen in the United States, and in the United States Senate.”

    Fox News Digital reached out to El-Sayed’s campaign for comment.

    In March, El-Sayed released a statement in addition to his controversial video statement that Nessel took issue with, saying he was “horrified and heartbroken” to learn of the synagogue attack.

    “To my Jewish sisters and brothers, you have a right to worship in peace,” El-Sayed said. “You have a right to send your kids to the synagogue in the morning and know they’ll come home safely at night. And you have a right to know that your religious identity and faith practice are respected. There is no room for antisemitism in America. So today and everyday, I am standing in solidarity with all of us who value our right to pray how we choose to pray against antisemitism and hate in all its forms.”

    El-Sayed has faced broad criticism from Jewish groups, fellow Democrats and Republicans over his repeated attacks on Israel and AIPAC, as well as his public association with left-wing streamer Hasan Piker.

    纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼周二因哀悼一名等待谋杀审判的男子死亡而引发保守派不满。

    “我对今早早些时候一名纽约人在赖克斯岛监狱的羁押中死亡深感悲痛,”曼达尼在X平台上发帖称。

    曼达尼所提及的这名男子名为克拉伦斯·伍德沃德,他于2024年被捕,被控与布朗克斯一家自助洗衣店一起无端的砍刀袭击案有关的谋杀、过失杀人及袭击罪名。当时,伍德沃德已有27次先前被捕记录,并在涉嫌杀人案发生前一个月刚获得假释。伍德沃德已对指控表示不认罪,尚未被定罪。

    “我与他的家人和亲友同在,他们正为这场损失悲痛。我们目前尚不清楚死因,但我们确实知道有太多纽约人死于赖克斯岛。惩教署及其监督伙伴将调查其死亡的相关情况。本届政府完全致力于改善我市监狱系统的关键工作,并尽快关闭赖克斯岛。”

    截至周四上午,曼达尼的帖子浏览量已超过320万次,绝大多数评论都对曼达尼向这名在押人员表示哀悼表示愤怒。

    “我想知道他是否对这家伙犯下的谋杀案‘深感悲痛’,”纽约市议会成员维基·帕拉迪诺写道。“找不到关于这件事的推文。”

    “他为那个用砍刀杀害无辜美国人的人死了而感到难过,”保守派评论员埃亚尔·亚科比发帖称。“我们到底在干什么?”

    “‘共产主义者’曼达尼‘深感悲痛’,那个用砍刀杀人的家伙在监狱里突发疾病去世了,”洛杉矶前市长候选人斯宾塞·普拉特在回应该帖子时说道。“我们不能有同情杀人犯的领导人。我们到底在干什么?”

    “一名两个孩子的父亲被用砍刀砍死,而他的凶手多次获得假释,”共和党战略家、律师梅赫克·库克在X平台上发帖称。“而你认为真正的反派是监狱?”

    这场批评发生在几周前,曼达尼因访问赖克斯岛面临类似的强烈反对,他在7月的世界杯半决赛观看派对上与在押人员交谈。

    尽管社交媒体上的保守派对曼达尼的声明不满,但官员和社区活动家长期以来一直对赖克斯岛的监狱条件表示担忧。例如,许多人指出,被关押在那里的许多人都在等待审判,因此有权获得无罪推定。

    “我们的民众在惩教署的羁押下因医疗疏忽、身体虐待和不安全条件而死亡,”一名社区活动家在2025年6月谈到赖克斯岛时说道。

    “人们不应该在等待公平审判的同一设施中继续死亡,”《滚石》杂志首席研究编辑在X平台上写道。

    纽约市自2019年起就有法律义务关闭赖克斯岛,并将其替换为四个较小的区级监狱,曼达尼已承诺加快这一计划。批评者认为,这一举措将导致该市监狱牢房减少,更难打击犯罪。

    “就在曼达尼哀悼一名在监狱中突发疾病的杀人犯的同一天,另一名杀人犯又出去杀害更多无辜民众——纽约左派不顾其至少12次先前被捕记录和暴力犯罪历史,提前释放了他,”传统基金会主席凯文·罗伯茨发帖称,他指的是警方正在追捕的一名与布鲁克林和布朗克斯两起致命抢劫案有关的假释犯。

    Mamdani ignites online firestorm after mourning death of inmate charged in grisly murder: ‘WTF are we doing?’

    New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani drew ire from conservatives on Tuesday for mourning the death of a man who was awaiting trial on murder charges.

    “I am deeply saddened by the death of a New Yorker in City custody at a jail on Rikers Island early this morning,” Mamdani posted on X.

    Clarence Woodward, the man Mamdani was referencing, was arrested in 2024 and charged with murder, manslaughter and assault in connection with an unprovoked meat cleaver attack at a Bronx laundromat. At the time, Woodward had 27 prior arrests and had received parole just a month prior to the alleged killing. Woodward had pleaded not guilty to the charges and had not been convicted.

    “My thoughts are with his family and loved ones as they grieve this loss. We do not yet know the cause of death, but we do know that too many New Yorkers have died on Rikers Island. The Department of Correction and its oversight partners will investigate the circumstances surrounding his death. Our administration is fully committed to the critical work of creating better conditions in our city’s jail system and closing Rikers Island as quickly as possible.”

    As of Thursday morning, Mamdani’s post has been viewed over 3.2 million times, with the majority of comments expressing outrage over Mamdani offering condolences to the inmate.

    “I wonder if he was ‘deeply saddened’ by the murder this guy committed,” New York City Councilwoman Vicky Paladino wrote. “Can’t find a tweet about that one.”

    “He’s sad that someone who murdered an innocent American with a meat cleaver is dead,” conservative commentator Eyal Yakoby posted. “What are we even doing?”

    “Commie Mamdani is ‘deeply saddened’ that a guy who murdered a guy with a meat cleaver had a medical emergency in jail,” failed Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt said in response to the post. “We cannot have leaders who weep for murderers. WTF are we doing?”

    “A father of two was hacked to death with a meat cleaver after his killer was repeatedly paroled,” GOP strategist and attorney Mehek Cooke posted on X. “And you think the real villain is the jail?”

    The criticism comes weeks after Mamdani faced similar backlash for visiting Rikers Island, where he spoke with inmates during a World Cup semifinal watch party in July.

    While conservatives on social media were unhappy with Mamdani’s statement, officials and community activists have long raised concerns about the conditions on Rikers Island. Many, for instance, point out that many of the individuals being held there are awaiting trial and thus entitled to a presumption of innocence.

    “​​Our people are dying while under the custody of the Department of Corrections from medical neglect, physical abuse and unsafe conditions,” one community activist said in June 2025 about Rikers Island.

    “People shouldn’t keep dying in the same facility while awaiting a fair trial,” the chief research editor of Rolling Stone magazine wrote on X.

    New York City has been legally committed since 2019 to closing Rikers and replacing it with four smaller borough-based jails, a plan Mamdani has pledged to accelerate. Critics argue the move would leave the city with fewer jail cells and make it more difficult to tackle crime.

    “On the same day Mamdani was mourning a murderer who had a medical emergency in jail, another murderer was out taking more innocent lives after NYC leftists cut him loose early despite at least a dozen prior arrests and a history of violent crime,” Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts posted, referencing a parolee police were seeking in connection with two deadly robberies in Brooklyn and the Bronx.

    九一一恐袭主谋将于2028年6月在美军事法庭受审

    2026年8月27日 23:06 / 联合早报

    被指涉及2001年9月11日恐袭的主谋穆罕默德,将于2028年6月在美国军事法庭受审。图为穆罕默德2003年被捕后的照片。 (路透社)

    一名美国官员说,被指涉及2001年9月11日恐袭的主谋穆罕默德,将于2028年6月在美国军事法庭受审。

    法新社报道,一名古巴关塔那摩湾美国军事法庭发言人星期四(8月27日)说,穆罕默德(Khalid Sheikh Mohammed)将从2028年6月5日起受审。他的审讯多次延期,一项原本可免除死刑的认罪协议也于去年被撤回。

    穆罕默德于2003年在巴基斯坦被捕,随后被关押在美国中央情报局秘密监狱三年,2006年转送关塔那摩湾美国海军基地。关塔那摩湾军事基地曾关押约800名“反恐战争”囚犯,目前仅剩少数人。

    穆罕默德曾称自己从头到尾策划了九一一袭击。2001年9月11日,遭劫持的客机撞击纽约世贸中心双子塔和华盛顿五角大楼,造成近3000人死亡;另一架客机坠毁于宾夕法尼亚州。

    他也称,参与了1993年世贸中心爆炸案,及2002年斩首美国记者珀尔等案件。

    众议院监督委员会主席、肯塔基州共和党议员詹姆斯·科默已传票传唤一名据称是佛罗里达州一家大型代孕旅游计划幕后主使的医生。

    此事发生之际,得克萨斯州共和党议员布兰登·吉尔在其对史密森尼学会的打击行动登上头条并引发对其美国历史教学的新审视后,将目标对准了新的对象。

    吉尔隶属于众议院监督委员会的制度滥用调查专责小组,目前正筹备一场关于代孕旅游的听证会——白宫就在本月就此敲响了警钟。

    作为听证会的一部分,科默已向“在迈阿密生我的孩子”的弗拉基米尔·洛伦茨医生发出传票。这家南佛罗里达企业旨在帮助外国公民在美国分娩。听证会预计将于9月1日举行。

    科默指责洛伦茨通过其律师拒绝自愿出庭,并在周二随传票发出的一封信中表示,洛伦茨的律师辩称,由于美国南佛罗里达州检察官办公室正在进行一项未决的刑事调查,他无法与委员会沟通。
    “作为一家以‘在迈阿密生我的孩子’为名开展业务的公司的创始人和首席医疗官,你对该公司营销行为的了解以及与代孕旅游行业相关的直接观察,对本次紧急调查至关重要,”科默的传票信中写道。

    参议员埃里克·施密特寻求终结代孕旅游,撤销外国外交官子女的公民身份

    “此外,鉴于代孕旅游引发的国家安全担忧,推迟听证会或将你的证词推迟到(可能遥遥无期的)未来某个未知日期,将是一项非同寻常的举措,这会削弱委员会获取宝贵信息的能力,而这些信息将为委员会的监督工作提供参考,并推进其立法目标。”

    与此同时,吉尔呼应了科默对国家安全的担忧。

    代孕旅游斗争转向美国“热带产科病房”,该机构曾有剥削中国人的历史

    “一个日益壮大的行业公开向为在美国领土上分娩专程赴美旅行的外国公民推销美国公民身份。这种对我们移民制度的滥用也引发了严重的国家安全担忧,尤其是考虑到来自中国和俄罗斯等敌对国家的代孕游客数量,”这位众议院共和党强硬派议员说道。

    他的专责小组9月1日的听证会还预计将有移民研究中心的史蒂夫·卡马罗塔博士作证。国际产科服务公司的医疗总监兼老板胡利奥·塞萨尔·诺沃亚博士也受邀出席。

    得克萨斯州州长阿博特签署行政令打击“代孕旅游”,称美国公民身份并非商品

    吉尔今年成立的新专责小组主要关注美国社会各领域的多元化、公平与包容(DEI)工作。

    他曾就史密森尼学会的美国历史教学是否存在过度意识形态和政治倾向,以及多元化、公平与包容是否在美国律师协会(ABA)的运营中发挥作用举行听证会。

    代孕旅游是外国公民持临时签证赴美,目的是生下自动成为美国公民的孩子这一普遍做法的俗称。

    最高法院驳回了特朗普大幅限制出生地公民权的努力后,特朗普在最近的一项行政令中针对代孕旅游。他还签署了一项行政令,禁止特定类别人群,如外国政府工作人员的子女自动获得美国公民身份。

    “在迈阿密生我的孩子”只是一家似乎让外国公民在美国分娩变得更容易的公司之一。截至周四,其网站和社交媒体页面似乎已被停用。

    但一个似乎与该企业相关的YouTube页面写道:“很多人都对如何在美国生孩子有疑问,我们可以帮助澄清如何在迈阿密分娩、如何在怀孕期间居住在美国、如何在美国生孩子、在美国分娩的费用是多少,以及如何在美国度过孕期。”
    “除非极少数例外情况,在美国出生的孩子都拥有美国公民身份,”简介中写道。

    佛罗里达州Local 10网站2025年10月的一篇文章似乎从现已删除的页面中获取了信息,包括该公司据称帮助接生了2000名婴儿。

    目前尚不清楚洛伦茨是否会出庭。但拒绝国会传票可能会面临刑事指控。

    House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., is subpoenaing a doctor allegedly behind a sprawling birth tourism scheme based in Florida.

    It comes as Rep. Brandon Gill, R-Texas, is setting his sights on a new target after his crackdown on the Smithsonian Institution made headlines and thrust fresh scrutiny onto its teaching of American history.

    Gill’s task force on investigating institutional abuses, which is part of the House Oversight Committee, is now gearing up for a hearing on the practice of birth tourism — something the White House sounded the alarm on just this month.

    As part of the hearing, Comer sent a subpoena to Dr. Wladimir Lorentz of Have My Baby in Miami, a South Florida business that’s aimed at helping foreigners give birth in the United States. The hearing is expected to take place Sept. 1.

    Comer accused Lorentz of refusing to voluntarily appear via his attorney, and in a letter sent with the subpoena on Tuesday, Comer said Lorentz’s attorney argued he could not speak with the committee due to a pending criminal probe being conducted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida.

    “As the Founder and Chief Medical Officer of a company doing business as ‘Have My Baby in Miami,’ your knowledge regarding the company’s marketing practices and direct observations relevant to the birth tourism industry is vital to the immediate investigation,” Comer’s subpoena letter read.

    SEN ERIC SCHMITT SEEKS TO END BIRTH TOURISM, REVOKE CITIZENSHIP FOR BABIES OF FOREIGN DIPLOMATS

    “Furthermore, given the national security concerns raised by birth tourism, delaying the hearing or deferring your testimony to some unknown date in the (potentially far) future would be an extraordinary action that would curtail the Committee’s ability to glean valuable information that will inform its oversight and further its legislative goals.”

    Meanwhile, Gill echoed Comer’s concerns over national security.

    BIRTH TOURISM FIGHT SHIFTS TO US ‘TROPICAL MATERNITY WARD’ WITH HISTORY OF CHINESE EXPLOITATION

    “A growing industry is openly marketing American citizenship to foreign nationals who travel here for the express purpose of giving birth on U.S. soil. This abuse of our immigration system also raises serious national security concerns, particularly given the number of birth tourists traveling from adversarial nations like China and Russia,” the House GOP firebrand said.

    His panel’s Sept. 1 hearing is also expected to feature testimony from Dr. Steve Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies. The medical director and owner of a company called International Maternity Services, Dr. Julio César Novoa, was also invited.

    TEXAS GOV ABBOTT SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER CRACKING DOWN ON ‘BIRTH TOURISM,’ SAYS US CITIZENSHIP NOT FOR SALE

    Gill’s new task force, which was founded this year, has largely focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts across various sectors of American life.

    He’s held hearings on whether the Smithsonian’s teaching of U.S. history involved overly ideological and political leanings, and whether DEI plays a role in running the American Bar Association (ABA).

    Birth tourism is the colloquial term for the general practice of foreign nationals coming to the U.S. on temporary visas for the purpose of having a child who then automatically becomes an American citizen.

    President Donald Trump targeted birth tourism in a recent executive order after the Supreme Court struck down his efforts to curb birthright citizenship writ large. He also signed an order banning specific categories, such as children born to foreign government workers, from automatically getting U.S. citizenship.

    Have My Baby in Miami is just one company that appears to make it more accessible for foreigners to give birth in the U.S. Its website and social media pages appeared to be disabled as of Thursday.

    But a YouTube page that appears to be associated with the business states, “Many people have questions about how to have a child in the United States, and we can help clarify how to deliver in Miami, how to live in the United States during your pregnancy, how to have a baby in the United States, how much it costs to deliver in the United States and how to go through pregnancy in the United States.”

    “Children who are born in the United States, with rare exceptions, have US citizenship,” the summary states.

    An October 2025 article by Local 10 in Florida appears to have obtained information from the now-deleted pages, including that the company reportedly touted that it helped deliver 2,000 babies.

    It’s not yet clear if Lorentz will appear. But defying a congressional subpoena could risk criminal charges.

    专家:冰崩引发尼泊尔泥石流 亟须完善跨境灾难预警机制

    2026年8月27日 23:33 / 联合早报

    • 尼泊尔与中国西藏边境发生泥石流致重大伤亡,各国专家普遍认为灾害由尼泊尔一侧冰川崩塌引发。 – 卫星影像及中方专家确认高位冰崩是主因,但具体诱因尚不确定,或与工程、异常增温等因素有关。 – 学者指出仅靠降雨监测不足以预警,须将冰川动态纳入体系,以应对气候变化下的新型灾害风险。 – 尼中合作协会主席呼吁建立实时连接的永久性跨境灾害风险管理体系,以解决现有机制分散问题。

    行星实验室(Planet Labs)的卫星图像,拍摄到尼泊尔斯亚普鲁贝西(Syabrubesi)地区在毁灭性泥石流发生前(上图,摄于8月23日)和发生后(下图,摄于8月26日)的景象。 (路透社)

    尼泊尔与中国西藏边境发生泥石流灾害,造成重大人员伤亡,上千人失踪。各国专家普遍认为,灾害由尼泊尔一侧冰川崩塌引发,冰体从数千米高处坠落至山谷,裹挟大量泥沙、岩石等重物,最终形成强大洪流。

    一场源自喜马拉雅山脉高处,由泥石、水和冰组成的巨大洪流,星期三(8月26日)席卷尼泊尔和西藏交界处的山谷,造成毁灭性破坏。在西藏日喀则市吉隆县吉隆口岸,巨大的洪流突然涌入,瞬间吞没建筑物。洪流重创吉隆口岸后,向位于尼泊尔境内的下游推进,沿途冲毁村庄、桥梁。

    印度锡金大学工程地质学专家古普塔(Vikram Gupta)根据行星实验室(Planet Labs)卫星影像确认,事发地冰川有相当大一部分发生崩塌,引发灾害。崩塌过程中可能裹挟了大量岩石和沉积物。

    中国自然资源航空物探遥感中心地质灾害调查监测中心主任郭兆成也认为,冰崩是造成灾难的主要原因。新华社引述郭兆成说,高位冰崩垮落,高速运动中铲刮了沟道里的冰碛物,形成高速碎屑流并演变为泥石流。

    目前尚不确定冰川崩塌的原因。但联合国秘书长古特雷斯2023年曾指出,尼泊尔在短短30多年间已失去近三分之一的冰,当地冰川在此前10年中的融化速度,比前一个10年快了65%。

    加拿大卡尔加里大学地质学家舒加尔(Daniel Shugar)认为,当地建造工程可能是一个诱发因素,气候变化则是下来须研究的问题。

    新加坡南洋理工大学国立教育学院气候变化研究学者王靖宇博士告诉《联合早报》,泥石流通常和短时间出现强降雨有关,此次虽然没有强降雨,但温度较高,这可能是高海拔冰川断裂并落下的原因。

    他认为,冰崩和极端气候紧密相关,“异常增温极有可能加速冰川融化,造成冰川整体结构变得更加脆弱”。

    王靖宇指出,近年高海拔、地形复杂地区发生多起灾害显示,在气候变化下,仅靠降雨监测已不足以支撑有效预警,须要将冰川动态监测纳入早期预警体系。

    西藏吉隆口岸去年7月也遭遇泥石流,造成17名中方人员失联。

    尼中合作协会主席波德尔(Prem Sagar Poudel)受访时说,当前科学技术无法可靠预测大规模冰崩的具体时间,未来预防重点应该是迅速探测到灾害发生,并立即发布预警。

    他说:“喜马拉雅山地灾害的发生速度,可能快于传统行政信息传递速度,这是最值得汲取教训的地方。”

    波德尔也说,尽管尼中两国建立了减灾、监测等机制,但比较分散,应建立实时连接的永久性跨境自然灾害风险管理体系。

    王靖宇则指出,全球现有预警体系基本是“各管一摊”,这场灾难不仅暴露了尼中两国预警协调问题,也反映出全世界在面对气候变化带来的新型灾害时,可能出现的短板。

  • 古特雷斯称预计美国很快将缴纳联合国预算摊款

    8月27日(路透社)——联合国秘书长安东尼奥·古特雷斯周四表示,他预计美国很快将缴纳其拖欠联合国预算的数亿美元摊款。

    路透社上周报道称,特朗普政府已向美国国会通报了其计划支付7.25亿美元联合国会费的意向。当被问及这笔款项何时到账时,古特雷斯告诉记者,根据联合国收到的消息,“这笔款项很快就会到账”。

    美国国务院在8月4日的信函中表示,将为联合国经常预算拨付总计7.25亿美元资金。

    这笔7.25亿美元的款项不到联合国所称美国拖欠该国际组织的逾50亿美元总额的15%,尽管华盛顿方面辩称拖欠总额要低得多。

    今年5月,联合国称华盛顿方面的经常预算欠款为20.4亿美元。

    古特雷斯今年曾警告称,由于成员国拖欠会费(其中大部分来自美国),联合国面临“迫在眉睫的财政崩溃”,该全球机构已进行了大规模预算削减。

    广告 · 滚动继续

    美国总统唐纳德·特朗普政府此前批评联合国未能发挥其潜力,并大幅削减了对多个联合国机构的拨款。一名美国官员上周告诉路透社,任何付款都将取决于联合国持续推进改革,并补充称截至周五美国尚未划转任何资金。

    美国驻联合国代表团没有立即回应就古特雷斯最新表态置评的请求。

    Guterres says he expects UN budget contribution from US very soon

    Aug 27 (Reuters) – United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said on Thursday he expects a new contribution of ​hundreds of millions of dollars the United States owes ‌to the U.N. budget very soon.

    Reuters reported last week that the Trump administration has informed the U.S. Congress of its intention to pay $725 million of ​dues it owes to the U.N. Asked when that ​payment was expected, Guterres told reporters that according to ⁠information received by the U.N., “this will be very soon.”

    The State ​Department said in its August 4 letter it was obligating a ​total of $725 million for the U.N.’s regular budget.

    The $725 million is less than 15% of the more than $5 billion the U.N. says the United States owes ​to the world body, although Washington argues the total figure ​is much lower.

    In May, the U.N. said Washington owed $2.04 billion for the ‌regular ⁠budget.

    Guterres warned this year that the U.N. faced “imminent financial collapse” due to unpaid contributions from member states, most of which are owed by the United States, and the global body has conducted ​large budget cuts.
