新闻报道:亨特·拜登面临九项与逃税相关的刑事指控,此案由司法部特别检察官大卫·魏斯提出,正值2024年总统大选前夕。起诉书中提到他在乌克兰、罗马尼亚和中国的商业交易,以及他收到的120万美元的外国资金,但他将钱花在了毒品、妓女、豪华酒店和豪车上,而不是缴纳税款。亨特·拜登的律师阿比·洛否认指控,并声称如果亨特·拜登的名字不是拜登,这些指控就不会被提出,他还指责特别检察官屈服于共和党的压力。 史蒂夫·因斯凯普和海莉·马丁:以色列在加沙地带继续轰炸,搜寻10月7日袭击事件中负责的哈马斯领导人。冲突也波及耶路撒冷,该市对三大宗教具有重要意义。 凯特·兰斯托夫:在耶路撒冷老城,一群右翼以色列犹太人计划在穆斯林区游行,但人数不多,警方阻止了游行。耶路撒冷老城气氛紧张。以色列军队已进入加沙地带第二大城市汗尤尼斯,并包围了哈马斯领导人伊斯梅尔·哈尼耶的住所。加沙地带的拉法市人满为患,人道主义状况恶劣。 托比亚·史密斯:哈佛大学、麻省理工学院和宾夕法尼亚大学的校长因其对校园反犹太主义的回应而面临强烈批评。哈佛大学校长重申,煽动种族灭绝是违法的,但没有明确表示煽动种族灭绝构成威胁。宾夕法尼亚大学校长表示正在重新考虑该校的政策。一些人指责大学对左翼言论的宽容与对右翼言论的压制构成双重标准。众议院委员会正在调查这些大学的纪律政策。 乔纳森·格林布拉特:哈佛大学、麻省理工学院和宾夕法尼亚大学的校长应该下台。 史蒂芬·平克:解雇校长并不能解决更深层次的问题。
