    华盛顿,8月14日(路透社)——美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周五驳回了有关“亚伯拉罕·林肯”号航母上美国水兵承受压力的担忧,称这艘航母为支援对伊朗战争而进行的260多天部署“远远不够”。与此同时,水兵家属和国会议员们对舰上的心理健康状况和不断恶化的生活条件表示担忧。

    在飞往纽约前与记者的简短交谈中,特朗普驳斥了有关部署时间过长的说法。

    Trump says USS Abraham Lincoln deployment ‘not nearly long enough’

    August 14, 2026 9:13 PM UTC Updated 2 hours ago / Reuters

    By Humeyra Pamuk

    WASHINGTON, Aug 14 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump on Friday dismissed concerns about the toll on U.S. sailors aboard the USS ​Abraham Lincoln, saying the aircraft carrier’s more than ‌260-day deployment in support of the war with Iran was “not nearly long enough” even as families and lawmakers raised concerns about mental health and ​deteriorating conditions aboard the ship.

    In a brief exchange ​with reporters before flying to New York, Trump rejected ⁠suggestions that the deployment had gone on too long.

    The Reuters Daily Briefing newsletter provides all the news you need to start your day. Sign up here.

    “No, ​no, no. Not nearly long enough,” Trump said when asked ​whether the carrier’s eight-and-a-half months at sea was excessive.

    “That ship is moving right now, or very shortly, and it’s being replaced with another ​very similar ship,” Trump said.

    The Lincoln left its home port ​of San Diego last November and was later redirected to the Middle ‌East ⁠to support U.S. military operations in the war with Iran. The carrier has roughly 5,000 sailors and Marines aboard.

    The ship has not made a port call in more than ​200 days, setting ​a modern-day ⁠record for consecutive days at sea, according to U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal, a Democratic member ​of the Senate Armed Services Committee.

    Several Democratic lawmakers ​have ⁠called for answers after families of sailors raised concerns about worsening mental health, living conditions and supply issues aboard the carrier.

    Defense ⁠Secretary ​Pete Hegseth on Thursday pushed back against ​reports of deteriorating conditions aboard the Lincoln, calling them “completely misrepresented.”

    国土安全部律师称公众有权知晓哪些法官在移民问题上“公然对抗最高法院”
    国土安全部首席法律顾问詹姆斯·珀西瓦尔表示,一群联邦地区法官——而非整个司法系统——屡次阻止驱逐行动和临时保护身份撤销程序,尽管最高法院已有相关裁决。他称这是“赤裸裸的政治激进主义”。

    美国第五巡回上诉法院周四以无实际意义为由,驳回了对唐纳德·特朗普总统动用《敌对外侨法》驱逐据称是阿拉瓜火车帮成员的诉讼,使得他援引这项18世纪法律的合法性仍未定论。

    这家位于新奥尔良的法院表示,在特朗普政府指控的三名委内瑞拉原告均已通过其他移民执法程序被驱逐出美国后,该案已失去实际意义。

    尽管《敌对外侨法》已有数百年历史,但在特朗普之前,最近一次被援引是在1946年,由哈里·杜鲁门总统使用。该法律允许总统在涉及外国国家或政府的特定战争或入侵情况下,拘留并驱逐某些未入籍的敌对势力国民。

    特朗普政府辩称,阿拉瓜火车帮的帮派活动符合该法律中“入侵或掠夺性侵入”的定义,并试图将这项权力作为其更广泛移民议程的一部分,包括加快驱逐涉嫌帮派成员的行动。

    哥伦比亚特区上诉法院要求博阿斯伯格法官暂停对特朗普驱逐航班的藐视法庭调查

    最高法院此前曾阻止政府在诉讼审理期间依据《敌对外侨法》驱逐被拘留者,但未就特朗普是否合法援引该法令作出裁决,而是将争议发回第五巡回上诉法院。

    “推进美国自由”组织高级法律研究员布莱斯·普尔将该裁决描述为特朗普政府的喜忧参半的结果。
    “第五巡回法院在W.M.M.诉特朗普案中的全体法官裁决对特朗普政府来说是进了一步,又原地踏步了一步,”“推进美国自由”组织高级法律研究员布莱斯·普尔告诉福克斯新闻数字频道。“去年,在A.A.R.P.诉特朗普案中,最高法院阻止了驱逐行动,但拒绝裁定特朗普总统援引《敌对外侨法》是否合法,将该问题发回第五巡回法院。”

    “推进美国自由”是由前副总统迈克·彭斯创立的保守派公共政策倡导组织。
    “说它向前迈进了一步,是因为法院撤销了此前认定特朗普援引法律非法的裁决,保留了总统根据《敌对外侨法》享有的权力,”普尔解释道。“说它原地踏步,是因为法院回避了实质问题,因此《敌对外侨法》的合法性仍是一个悬而未决的问题,最高法院很可能会在另一起类似J.A.V.诉特朗普的案件中作出裁决——该案有经认证的集体诉讼,因此无实际意义原则将不适用。”

    尽管法院拒绝就实质问题作出裁决,但两名法官在协同意见中暗示他们认为总统对该法律的使用是恰当的。
    “我同意本案已无实际意义,”法官詹姆斯·霍写道。“但我也同意美国政府的观点,即我们应当处理最高法院向我们提出的实质问题——并确认总统根据《敌对外侨法》和正当程序条款采取的行动是合法的。”
    “正如我此前指出的,法官应当尊重总统作出的入侵状态声明——包括2025年1月20日发布的声明,”这位特朗普任命的法官补充道。“如果当总统将非法移民视为入侵时法院必须予以尊重,参见同案,那么当涉及阿拉瓜火车帮的更狭义入侵问题时,我们更应当予以尊重。”

    乔治梅森大学法学教授、自由意志主义者卡托研究所学者伊利亚·索明强烈反对霍的理由。
    “如果总统只需声称存在‘入侵’就能制造一场‘入侵’,那么原本只能在极端情况下使用的危险紧急权力就会变成总统随时可以动用的空白支票,”他写道。“这违背了《敌对外侨法》的文本——该法将其使用限制在实际存在上述情况的情形中——也违背了宪法的文本和原旨。”

    最高法院最新移民裁决将导致美国人“死亡和受苦”,律师警告

    ()

    另一位特朗普任命的法官安德鲁·奥尔德姆也同意,总统援引《敌对外侨法》在法律上是站得住脚的。

    由17名在职的第五巡回法院法官参与审理,法院驳回了原告律师提出的为被特朗普政府驱逐的男子替换新原告的请求。

    The Fifth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Thursday dismissed as moot a challenge to President Donald Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport alleged Tren de Aragua members, leaving the legality of his invocation of the 18th-century law unresolved.

    The New Orleans-based court said the case became moot after all three Venezuelan plaintiffs, whom the administration alleged were members of Tren de Aragua, had already been removed from the United States under other immigration authorities.

    While the Alien Enemies Act dates back hundreds of years, prior to Trump, it was most recently invoked by President Harry Truman in 1946. The law allows the president, under specified wartime or invasion circumstances involving a foreign nation or government, to detain and remove certain non-naturalized individuals of that hostile power.

    The Trump administration has argued that Tren de Aragua’s gang activity amounts to an “invasion or predatory incursion” under the law and has sought to use the authority as part of its broader immigration agenda, including efforts to speed the removal of suspected gang members.

    DC APPEALS COURT ORDERS JUDGE BOASBERG TO HALT TRUMP CONTEMPT PROBE OVER DEPORTATION FLIGHTS

    The Supreme Court previously blocked the administration from removing the detainees under the Alien Enemies Act while the case proceeded, but stopped short of deciding whether Trump had lawfully invoked the statute, sending the dispute back to the Fifth Circuit.

    Advancing American Freedom senior legal fellow Bryce Poole described the ruling as a mixed result for the Trump administration.

    “The Fifth Circuit’s en banc decision in W.M.M. v. Trump represents one step forward, one step sideways for the Trump Administration,” Advancing American Freedom senior legal fellow Bryce Poole told Fox News Digital. “Last year, in A.A.R.P. v. Trump, the Supreme Court blocked the removals but declined to decide whether President Trump’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act was lawful, sending that question back to the Fifth Circuit.”

    Advancing American Freedom is a conservative public policy advocacy organization founded by former Vice President Mike Pence.

    “It’s a step forward because it vacates the prior ruling that said Trump’s invocation was unlawful, leaving the President’s AEA powers intact,” Poole explained. “It’s a step sideways because the court dodged the merits, so the AEA’s legality remains a live question the Supreme Court will likely decide — probably in a different case like J.A.V. v. Trump, which has a certified class, so mootness won’t apply.”

    BIDEN JUDGE OVERRULED ON KEY TRUMP IMMIGRATION POLICY

    Even though the court declined to rule on the merits, two judges signaled their belief that the president’s use of the law was appropriate in their concurring opinions.

    “I agree that this case is moot,” Judge James Ho wrote. “But I also agree with the United States that we should address the merits questions directed to us by the Supreme Court — and affirm the President’s actions under the Alien Enemies Act and the Due Process Clause.”

    “As I’ve also noted, judges are supposed to defer to a President’s declaration of a state of invasion — including the ones issued on January 20, 2025.” Ho, a Trump appointee, added. “And if courts must defer when the President treats illegal immigration as an invasion, see id., then a fortiori we must defer when it comes to the narrower question of an invasion by Tren de Aragua.”

    Ilya Somin, a George Mason law professor and scholar at the libertarian Cato Institute, disagreed strongly with Ho’s rationale.

    “If the president could create an ‘invasion’ simply by claiming that it exists, it would convert dangerous emergency powers that can only be used in extreme circumstances into blank checks the president can invoke any time he wants” he wrote. “That’s contrary to the text of the AEA (which limits its use to situations where these circumstances actually exist) and to the text and original meaning of the Constitution.”

    SUPREME COURT’S LATEST IMMIGRATION RULING WILL CAUSE AMERICANS TO ‘DIE AND SUFFER’ ATTORNEY WARNS

    ()

    Judge Andrew Oldham, another Trump appointee, also agreed that the president’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act was legally sound.

    With all 17 active Fifth Circuit judges participating, the court refused a request from the plaintiffs’ lawyers to substitute in new plaintiffs for the men who the Trump administration deported.

  • 全球大多数贸易都要经过这27个咽喉要道。报告称,经济风险正在上升


    2026-08-14T16:10:21-0400 / 哥伦比亚广播公司新闻(CBS News)

    伊朗战事凸显了数千英里外一条关键航运路线中断,会切实影响美国消费者国内购买汽油等生活必需品的成本。

    这场冲突已接近六个月,由于商业船只遭袭引发对航道安全的担忧,霍尔木兹海峡——全球能源运输的关键动脉——的航运流量受到抑制。这一放缓导致全球油价飙升,汽油价格突破每加仑4美元,并加剧了全面通胀。

    美国和伊朗曾多次尝试斡旋达成和平协议,但由于双方继续争夺霍尔木兹海峡的控制权,谈判最终破裂。这凸显了在地缘政治冲突中,关键航道如何能成为施压工具。

    牛津经济研究院(Oxford Economics)的一份新报告列出了另外26个贸易量巨大的主要咽喉要道,如果航运陷入停滞,这些要道也可能威胁全球经济。

    全球贸易集中在哪里?

    正如牛津的报告所指出的,亚洲是全球关键咽喉要道最密集的地区。该区域拥有多条重要航道,包括位于印尼苏门答腊岛和马来西亚之间的马六甲海峡,以及台湾海峡——据牛津数据,全球四分之一的贸易货物经该海峡通行。

    地中海也是全球贸易活动的热点区域。据牛津的报告,约五分之一的全球贸易经由直布罗陀海峡(连接地中海与大西洋)和苏伊士运河(埃及东北部的人工航道)通行。

    尽管巴拿马运河对全球贸易的重要性相对较低,但它仍是美洲地区的重要咽喉要道。无党派智库外交关系委员会(Council on Foreign Relations)的数据显示,美国每年约40%的集装箱货运量会经过这条人工航道。

    全球贸易面临的主要威胁是什么?

    地缘政治动荡是全球贸易面临的最大威胁之一。牛津经济研究院经济研究与全球贸易主管哈里·墨菲·克鲁斯(Harry Murphy Cruise)对哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示,这包括一些国家试图利用关键咽喉要道为自身谋取政治或地缘政治利益。

    这一幕正上演在霍尔木兹海峡,美国和伊朗都在试图控制该区域的航运交通。

    另一个更隐蔽的威胁是气候变化,它正导致更频繁、破坏力更强的自然灾害。巴拿马运河就是一个典型例子:干旱和厄尔尼诺现象(一种导致太平洋表层温度“高于平均水平”的天气模式)共同作用,降低了运河水位,限制了货船的载货量。

    备选航线?

    正如牛津的报告所指出的,每个咽喉要道相关的风险,取决于灾难发生时是否能够重新规划航运路线。

    据墨菲·克鲁斯介绍,霍尔木兹海峡的通航量原本占全球石油供应量的五分之一,其受中断的风险尤其高,因为没有其他途径可以 redirect 能源供应。

    “没有其他替代航道,因为霍尔木兹海峡实际上就是石油外运的必经之路,”他说,“反观全球其他一些咽喉要道,它们与关键产油区的直接绑定程度要稍低一些。”

    当然,即便拥有备选航线的咽喉要道也可能遇到问题。墨菲·克鲁斯表示,为船只重新规划航线会延长航运周期,推高运营成本。

    “船只在海上的时间越长,船员薪资、燃油价格及其他成本就越高,”他说。

    如果船只在海上的时间超出预期,还会导致可用商业货船数量减少,进一步推高成本压力。

    “供需失衡会加剧,进而推高货运成本,”墨菲·克鲁斯补充道。

    Most global trade flows through these 27 chokepoints. The economic risks are rising, report says

    2026-08-14T16:10:21-0400 / CBS News

    The Iran war has underscored how disruptions to a key shipping route thousands of miles away can have a material impact on what American consumers pay at home for essentials like gasoline.

    The conflict, now nearing its six-month mark, has throttled traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global energy shipments, as strikes on commercial vessels raise concerns about the passageway’s safety. The slowdown has caused global oil prices to surge, pushing gasoline past $4 a gallon and fueling broader inflation.

    The U.S. and Iran have made multiple attempts to broker a peace deal, but talks have unraveled as the two sides continue to vie for control of the Strait of Hormuz, an indication of how key waterways can become instruments of leverage during geopolitical conflicts.

    A new report from Oxford Economics outlines 26 other major chokepoints with high trade volumes that could also threaten the economy if shipping were to grind to a halt.

    Where is global trade concentrated?

    As Oxford’s report points out, Asia has the densest concentration of key global chokepoints. The region is home to several vital waterways, including the Strait of Malacca, situated between the Indonesian island of Sumatra and Malaysia, and the Taiwan Strait, through which one-fourth of global trade passes, according to Oxford.

    The Mediterranean Sea is also a hot spot for global trade activity. Around one-fifth of global trade transits the Strait of Gibraltar, which connects the Mediterranean Sea with the Atlantic Ocean, and the Suez Canal, an artificial waterway in northeastern Egypt, according to Oxford’s report.

    While the Panama Canal is less significant to global trade, it remains an important chokepoint for the Americas. Some 40% of all U.S. container traffic traverses the artificial waterway annually, according to the Council on Foreign Relations, a nonpartisan think tank.

    What are the major threats to global trade?

    Geopolitical disruptions pose one of the greatest threats to global trade. That includes countries looking to use critical chokepoints for their own political or geopolitical gain, Harry Murphy Cruise, head of economic research and global trade at Oxford, told CBS News.

    That’s playing out in the Strait of Hormuz, as the U.S. and Iran both try to exert control over shipping traffic.

    Another, more insidious threat is climate change, which is driving more frequent and more harmful natural disasters. Just one example is the Panama Canal, where a combination of drought conditions and El Niño, a weather pattern that causes “warmer-than-average” surface temperatures in the Pacific Ocean, is lowering water levels and limiting the amount of cargo ships can carry.

    Backup routes?

    As Oxford’s report points out, the risks associated with each chokepoint depend on whether it can reroute traffic if and when disaster strikes.

    The Strait of Hormuz, through which one-fifth of the global oil supply normally flows, is particularly vulnerable to disruptions because there isn’t another option to redirect energy supplies, according to Murphy Cruise.

    “There’s no alternative path that it can take because the Strait is effectively where the oil is coming from,” he said. “If we look at some of the other chokepoints around the world, they’re slightly less tied directly to key production.”

    To be sure, even chokepoints that have backup routes can still run into issues. Rerouting vessels prolongs the shipping process, which can drive up operational costs, Murphy Cruise said.

    “The longer they’re out at sea, there’s higher wages, there’s higher oil prices and [other] costs,” he said.

    When vessels are out at sea longer than expected, it can also limit the number of available commercial ships, creating additional cost pressures.

    “That mismatch between supply and demand gets worse, and that pushes up freight costs,” Murphy Cruise added.

    菲防长指勒索敲诈 北京强调移民机构依法履职不针对特定国

    2026年8月15日 07:45 / 联合早报

    菲律宾防长特奥多罗称中国针对逾百名菲律宾人员的行动是“勒索敲诈行为”,中国外交部强调,中国移民管理机构依法履职,不针对特定国家,并指特奥多罗“一贯攻击抹黑中国”。

    据中国外交部官网消息,中国外交部星期五(8月14日)以发言人郭嘉昆答记者问形式回应称,在华外国公民应当遵守中国法律法规。中国移民管理机构依法履职并保障涉案人员合法权益,不针对特定国家。

    郭嘉昆还说,据了解,“此前亲自带武装部队抓扣在菲正常合法务工中国公民的正是这位菲律宾防长”,“这个人一贯攻击抹黑中国,破坏的不仅是中菲双边关系,也将损害菲律宾国家和人民的利益”。

    中国外交部8月10日称,全国移民管理机构深化在华“三非”(非法入境、非法就业、非法居留)外国人治理,依法开展专项行动。百余名菲律宾公民因非法就业、非法居留被依法处理。

    中国外交部强调,在专项行动过程中,移民管理工作人员规范文明执法,保障了涉案外籍人员的权益。

    菲律宾东米萨米斯省一家钢铁厂的69名中国工人,5月中旬被菲律宾执法部门查扣羁押。中国驻菲大使馆提出交涉,其中64人在5月28日晚获释。

    中国官媒《环球时报》当时称,近一个月来菲律宾至少有六起涉及中国公民被抓扣的事件,共计150余人被带走,相关理由包括企业环境污染、员工无有效签证、违规零售经营、危及国家安全等。

  • 剑桥大学前最年轻黑人教授贾森·阿德伊因抄袭指控辞职一周后去世


    2026年8月14日 / 美国东部时间下午6:11 / 哥伦比亚广播公司新闻

    贾森·阿德伊的家人表示,曾担任剑桥大学最年轻黑人教授的贾森·阿德伊于周五在伦敦去世,享年41岁。就在一周前,他因抄袭指控辞去了剑桥大学的教职。

    “自贾森接受剑桥大学教授一职以来的三年多时间里,他一直遭受着持续的恶意攻击,那些人不择手段地想要破坏他的声誉,”他的家人在一份声明中说道。

    “这场散布虚假信息的运动对杰森来说太过沉重了。他是一个温和的人,总是愿意看到每个人最好的一面。我们对失去这位了不起的父亲、伴侣、兄弟、叔叔和儿子感到震惊。”

    伦敦大都会警察局未点名阿德伊,但在一份声明中表示,当地时间周五下午3点12分,警方接到报案称一名41岁男子在一处住宅内失去意识。警方称该男子当场被宣布死亡,其近亲已接到通知。

    警方表示,他的死亡“出乎意料,但据信不涉及可疑情况”,目前案件正在调查中。

    英国教育大臣露西·鲍尔在社交媒体帖子中表示,听到阿德伊去世的消息,她“深感震惊和悲痛”。

    “在这个极其悲伤的时刻,我向他的朋友和家人致以诚挚的哀悼,”鲍尔在帖子中说道。“我恳请人们在这段极其艰难的时期为他们保留隐私,请记住,此事涉及到真正的亲人。”

    8月5日,阿德伊因其传记中存在抄袭和捏造内容的指控辞职,他在一份声明中表示:“持续不断的指控、猜测和公众评论对我和我所爱的人造成了深远的伤害。”

    他表示,他的辞职不应“被误解为接受了围绕我的那些说法”。

    “我们对这一悲惨消息深感悲痛。在这个极其艰难的时刻,我们向贾森·阿德伊的家人和朋友致以诚挚的慰问,”剑桥大学副校长德博拉·普伦蒂斯教授在一份声明中说道。

    阿德伊于2023年加入剑桥大学,当时37岁,在分享了自己非凡的人生经历后,成为英国最受瞩目的学者之一。他称自己患有自闭症和阅读障碍,直到11岁才会说话,18岁之前无法阅读或书写。

    他在伦敦南部出生并长大,先后获得教育学和体育学士学位,随后获得两个硕士学位,之后成为一名教师。之后他在利物浦约翰摩尔斯大学获得博士学位。

    “学校里没有多少老师对我抱有信心,”他在2023年接受哥伦比亚广播公司新闻采访时说道。“教育心理学家和行为治疗师……非常肯定地认为,我日后会生活困难,需要他人协助生活。”

    上个月,曾公开批评多元化、公平与包容政策的生物学哲学家、前剑桥大学研究员内森·科夫纳斯提出了抄袭指控。科夫纳斯此前曾写道,在精英体制下,“除了体育和娱乐行业,黑人几乎会从所有高端职位上消失”。

    阿德伊此前否认存在任何故意不当行为,称其学术作品中的错误是无意的,并辩称针对他的大部分批评是一场出于意识形态和种族动机的针对他的运动。

    阿德伊的支持者也认为,对他的审查远远超出了合理的学术批评范围,并表示由于他在种族、不平等和多元化方面的研究工作,他成为了一场意识形态运动的目标。

    据《伦敦泰晤士报》报道,利物浦约翰摩尔斯大学此前曾调查过与其博士论文相关的指控,称未发现学术不端行为的证据。

    《伦敦泰晤士报》和《每日电讯报》上个月的文章报道了阿德伊个人经历中可能存在的夸大之处,包括他声称通过耐力挑战为慈善机构筹集数百万英镑,他后来对此进行了修正。《每日电讯报》对他声称出版过《年轻、黑人与男性:挑战主流话语》一书提出质疑,称未找到该书出版过的证据。

    在本周阿德伊的回忆录《伟大而不幸的事》发行之前,批评声不断增加。该回忆录记录了他从童年到在剑桥大学任职的人生经历。

    在辞职声明中,阿德伊未提及针对他的具体指控,但表示他的辞职不应“被误解为接受了围绕我的那些说法”。

    “这只是一个已经达到任何人都理应承受的极限的人的决定,”他说道。

    Jason Arday, former Cambridge professor, dies week after resigning amid plagiarism allegations

    August 14, 2026 / 6:11 PM EDT / CBS News

    Jason Arday, who was Cambridge’s youngest Black professor, died in London on Friday, a week after he resigned from the university amid plagiarism allegations, his family said. He was 41 years old.

    “Jason was subjected to a campaign of sustained abuse for the more than three years since he accepted the role of Professor at Cambridge University by those who would leave no stone unturned in their quest to undermine him,” his family said in a statement.

    “The campaign of misinformation was too much for Jason, who was a gentle man and who always wanted to see the best in everyone. We are in shock to have lost this amazing father, partner, brother, uncle and son.”

    London’s Metropolitan Police did not identify Arday, but said in a statement that officers responded to a report of a 41-year-old man found unresponsive inside a property at 3:12 p.m. local time Friday. Police said the man was pronounced dead at the scene and his next of kin have been notified.

    His death is “unexpected, but is not believed to be suspicious,” police said. The case is under investigation.

    U.K. Education Secretary Lucy Powell said in a social media post that she was “deeply shocked & saddened” to hear about Arday’s death.

    “My heartfelt condolences are with his friends and family at this very sad time,” Powell said in the post. “I urge people to give them privacy through this incredibly difficult period & to remember there are real people with loved ones involved.”

    Arday resigned from Cambridge Aug. 5 following allegations of plagiarism and fabrications in his biography, saying in a statement, “The relentless accusations, speculation and public commentary have taken a profound toll on me and on those I love.”

    He said his resignation should not “be mistaken for an acceptance of the narratives that have surrounded me.”

    “We are desperately saddened to hear this tragic news. Our heartfelt sympathies go to Jason Arday’s family and friends at this incredibly difficult time,” Vice-Chancellor Professor at Cambridge Deborah Prentice said in a statement.

    Arday joined the University of Cambridge in 2023 at age 37, becoming one of Britain’s most high-profile academics after sharing an extraordinary account of his life. He said he was autistic and dyslexic, did not speak until age 11 and was unable to read or write until he was 18.

    Born and raised in south London, he went to college to earn a degree in education and physical education, and then went on to earn two master’s degrees before qualifying as a teacher. He then earned his PhD at Liverpool John Moores University.

    “Not many teachers at school had any belief in me,” he told CBS News in 2023. “Educational psychologists and behavioral therapists were … very robust in their assessment that I would struggle in later life and I would need assisted living .”

    Allegations of plagiarism were raised last month by Nathan Cofnas, a philosopher of biology and former Cambridge researcher who has publicly criticized diversity, equity and inclusion policies. Cofnas previously wrote that in a meritocracy, “Blacks would disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.”

    Arday previously denied any intentional wrongdoing, saying errors in his academic work were inadvertent and arguing that much of the criticism against him was an ideologically and racially motivated campaign against him.

    Supporters of Arday also argued the scrutiny went far beyond legitimate academic criticism and said he became the target of an ideological campaign because of his work on race, inequality and diversity.

    Liverpool John Moores University previously investigated allegations relating to his doctoral thesis and said it found no evidence of academic misconduct, according to The Times of London.

    Articles by The Times of London and The Telegraph reported last month on possible embellishments in Arday’s personal history, including claims that he raised millions for charity through endurance challenges, which he later amended. The Telegraph questioned his claim to have published a book, “Being Young, Black and Male: Challenging the Dominant Discourse,” saying it could not find evidence it was ever published.

    Criticism mounted ahead of this week’s release of Arday’s memoir, “Great and Unfortunate Things,” which chronicles his life from childhood through his appointment at Cambridge.

    In his resignation statement, Arday did not address the specific allegations against him, but said his resignation should not “be mistaken for an acceptance of the narratives that have surrounded me.”

    “It is simply the decision of someone who has reached the limits of what any person should reasonably be expected to endure,” he said.
