主播: 本期新闻主要关注三个方面：美国销毁其最后库存的化学武器，标志着其履行数十年承诺的完成；拜登政府将经济计划称为“拜登经济学”，并以此作为竞选口号；费城起诉幽灵枪支套件制造商，因为这些套件导致暴力事件增加，并给城市带来经济损失。
Jeff On Field: 美国销毁其化学武器库存，履行1997年承诺，但该过程因资金不足和管理不善而延误。尽管如此，这项工作对全球安全仍然有积极意义，表明军备控制能够奏效。
Eric Vaniio: “拜登经济学”是拜登政府对其经济政策的宣传用语，旨在强调经济的积极方面，例如通货膨胀下降和失业率低。但其有效性仍有待观察，并存在政治风险，因为经济形势可能在未来发生变化。
Martin Kaste: 费城起诉幽灵枪支套件制造商，因为这些套件导致暴力事件增加，并给城市带来经济损失。联邦层面对幽灵枪支的监管存在争议，枪支权利团体对政府的监管措施提出质疑。
Deep Dive
The United States has officially destroyed its chemical weapons stockpile, fulfilling a promise made in 1997. This makes the U.S. the last nation to eliminate its chemical weapons, a process plagued by underfunding and poor management. Despite this, the chemical weapons convention has been effective in some ways, while other nations still use them.
- The U.S. destroyed its last chemical weapons stockpile after decades.
- The process was hindered by underfunding and poor management.
