@mike95271314 @SydManfred 商务用车就会焦虑。 充电九分钟,不是所有的充电站都是9分钟。 续航950是cltc,实际使用续航是多少?如果只有四五百,那不够用。 家用无所谓,商务用车,该用车了,老板还等着你去充电?

China’s decision to detain or otherwise impede Panama-flagged vessels engaged in lawful trade destabilizes supply chains, raises costs, and erodes confidence in the global trading system. The United States stands with Panama against any retaliatory actions against its sovereignty and will always support our partners in the face of bullying. state.gov/releases/offic…



The bloodthirsty regime in Iran is preparing to commit yet another unforgivable crime. Reports confirm that at least five sons of Iran who courageously took to the streets on January 8th and 9th—Mohammad Amin Biglari, Shahin Vahedparast Kolowr, Abolfazl Salehi Siavashani, Amirhossein Hatami, Ali Fahim, and potentially more—have been moved from their ward and transferred to an unknown location for likely execution. These young men are condemned not for anything they did, but because of what they represent. This regime’s sham courts do not seek justice, they seek to terrorize Iran into silence. They will fail. I call on @drmaisato and @UN_HRC and other international human rights institutions to urgently intervene to save the lives of these innocent young heroes.

BREAKING: On April 2, China voted to prolong the war that is depleting the stockpile that China supplies. The United States has roughly two months of rare earth materials in military reserve for sustained combat operations. The Iran war has been running for five weeks. Every Tomahawk cruise missile, every JDAM smart bomb, every radar-guided munition launched from the Ford carrier group or the B-52s at Fairford or the A-10s at Lakenheath requires rare earth magnets and alloys that are overwhelmingly processed in China. Seventy-eight percent of all US weapon systems depend on critical minerals from a supply chain that China controls at the 90 percent level. Each F-35 contains more than 900 pounds of these materials. Each Virginia-class submarine contains 9,200 pounds. The war is burning through the stockpile at a rate the supply chain cannot replenish because the country that processes the materials banned their military export in December 2025. On the same day the stockpile clock ticked deeper, China broke silence at the United Nations Security Council alongside Russia and France to block a Bahrain-led resolution authorising force to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The vote that would have ended the war faster was killed by the country that supplies the materials the war is consuming. Every additional week of combat depletes the reserve further. The veto extends the war. The same country controls both levers. President Trump proposed a $1.5 trillion defence budget on January 7 to build what he calls a “Dream Military,” the largest single-year increase since the Korean War. Golden Dome missile defence alone is budgeted at $185 billion. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimates $5 trillion in cumulative cost through 2035, adding $5.8 trillion to national debt with interest. Moody’s called the fiscal impact “negative.” The Pentagon comptroller said the budget was “trimmed to the most essential things” just to reach the $1.5 trillion mark. The budget funds the weapons. It does not fund the periodic table. Project Vault, a $12 billion strategic reserve, is the countermeasure. The Pentagon holds a $400 million equity stake in MP Materials, the only integrated rare earth mine in America. The 2027 NDAA bans Chinese magnets in defence procurement starting January 2027. But non-Chinese capacity covers less than 10 percent of global demand. Pentagon magnet certification is not expected until mid-2027. The budget is approved this year. The supply chain is not ready until next. And the war is burning the bridge between the two. Meanwhile China’s own vessels transit the Strait of Hormuz freely under the IRGC’s selective passage regime, paying tolls in yuan while European, Japanese, and Korean tankers sit anchored. China profits from the closure, blocks the resolution that would end it, supplies the materials that sustain the war consuming American reserves, and sits in a conference room in Beijing with a Pakistani diplomat holding the key to the deal that would stop all of it. The $1.5 trillion budget is not the story. The story is the trap. America is fighting a war with weapons it cannot replace, built with materials from the country that just voted to keep the war going, in a strait that the same country transits freely while everyone else is blocked. The Dream Military runs on Chinese metal. The Chinese just voted to keep the dream burning. And the periodic table does not negotiate. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…


Chinese Foreign Ministry: The root cause for disruptions to the passage through the Strait of Hormuz is the illegal US-Israeli military operations against Iran.
