@Tracy_Wen_Liu 这个肯定会被挑战,等于司法部剥夺IRS的权利。这份庭外和解要是有效力,那等于川普旗下的公司就有免死金牌了,那无法想象将会发生什么。

司法部的代理部长之前是川普的私人律师。
这次他作为政府内阁成员,签署了条款,规定,政府“永远不得”且“排除”审查川普、其家人、信托基金、公司及关联公司的纳税申报表。
该协议适用于协议达成前提交的所有纳税申报表。
没见过这么腐败的民选政府。

One day in the future, parents will tell their children that it was because of Trump’s war on Iran that caused farms to fail bc farmers couldn’t afford fertilizers and the cost of farming was too high.
And instead of world peace Lindsey Graham pounded his fist and said “drop the nukes and give Trump $400 million to build the ballroom!”

BREAKING: 70% of U.S. farmers say they can't afford the fertilizer they need for this year's growing season. They plan to reduce their crop size to compensate.

美国住房市场达到历史上“最不可负担”的水平.
现在的美国,估计只有Costco的烤鸡没涨价,其他都涨了吧?

@ABC Trump’s argument is cartoonishly corrupt: I hid my taxes, someone leaked them, people saw them, so the government I control owes me $10B. That’s not victimhood. It’s a sitting president trying to turn his own executive branch into a personal payout machine. Republicans are filth

@Alex8282019 你只说了加州,加州的房价确实贵,一个加州gdp比英国法国都高。
但是如果选择在西雅图这样的城市生活,也不错

大家都喜欢中美对账,那就再对个房价的账吧。有些人说美国人工作几年就能买房,那不是事实。美国人买房跟中国人一样苦逼。太穷的地方就不说了,因为鹤岗在哪里都没意义。说大城市吧。洛杉矶房价2025年中位数在90万美元。而家庭年收入(四口之家)中位数在9万美元左右。一个家庭不吃不喝买房也是十年起步。你要是贷款买,算上三十年利息总体成本还要翻个倍,跟中国房奴是一样的。
更关键是,美国养房成本比中国高,房产税(房价1%左右,动态计算)、房屋保险(大几千)、物业管理(小几千),水电煤气网络等等也不便宜。比中国房产好的是,美国房产主要价值在地皮,房子老化不要紧,地皮价值终究在。
所以,其实买房这件事,不管哪个国家,对工薪阶层都是不容易的事,几乎都是要咬牙奋斗一辈子,没有轻松可言。

This is actually heartbreaking.
Argentina was once famous for having the best beef in the world.
Today? People are staring at empty meat counters, prices are insane, and many are walking away with nothing.
Meanwhile, Javier Milei is dancing and singing on stage like a performer — right next to his sister, the woman many call “the real boss”.
They sold the country’s gold reserves, opened the doors for foreigners to buy huge pieces of Patagonia, and now the people are paying the price.
Is this what “economic freedom” looks like?
Argentina is literally being sold out in front of our eyes.
What’s your take on this? 👇

作为一个在美国生活了十七年、对美国有着深厚感情的人,作为一个曾经相信美国的制度及其榜样能够给世界带来希望和光明的人,我不得不难堪又痛苦地承认,美国近一段时间在与伊朗的对峙中表现出令人难以置信的软弱、被动、胆怯、愚蠢和短视。
无论美国的立场或者意图是什么,凭借其现有的实力和国际地位,都完全没有必要沦落到几乎完全被伊朗牵着鼻子走的境地。
我们不知道这背后究竟发生了什么。造成目前局面的原因是个人的决策风格?政治派系的争斗?战略博弈的无力?武器实力的不济?军队士气的低落?不过,无论如何,在世人看来,美国已经完全不是以前的美国了。
我此时也能多少理解那些在本土出生长大的美国人的心境了。连我都痛心疾首如斯,那些从小唱着“星条旗永不落”的美国人会有什么感受,便可想而知了。
我们该反思什么?美国的民主制度与个人主义?教育体系的僵化与无能?资本主义体制和功利思想?现代性本身?
显然,美国人要做的反思很多很多。可惜的是,我们很少看到像样的反思,只有越来越极端和情绪化的相互指责和对立。这才是最让人担心甚至绝望的。
