周三，纽约一名联邦法官下令，美国总统特朗普必须向作家卡罗尔（E· Jean Carroll）支付陪审团此前裁定的500万美元损害赔偿金。之前，最高法院已拒绝受理特朗普就这起诽谤及性虐待案裁决提出的上诉。 上诉被驳回后，卡罗尔的律师请求地区法院下令立即拨付500万美元的损害赔偿金，以及自裁决以来所产生的近80万美元利息。美国地区法官刘易斯·卡普兰周三批准了卡罗尔的这一请求，特朗普的律师随后迅速通知法...
周三，纽约一名联邦法官下令，美国总统特朗普必须向作家卡罗尔（E· Jean Carroll）支付陪审团此前裁定的500万美元损害赔偿金。之前，最高法院已拒绝受理特朗普就这起诽谤及性虐待案裁决提出的上诉。 上诉被驳回后，卡罗尔的律师请求地区法院下令立即拨付500万美元的损害赔偿金，以及自裁决以来所产生的近80万美元利息。美国地区法官刘易斯·卡普兰周三批准了卡罗尔的这一请求，特朗普的律师随后迅速通知法院，他们将对该命令提出上诉。 在周二提交的一份法庭文件中，特朗普的律师请求法官暂缓发放这笔资金，并表示已请求最高法院重新审议其上诉申请。律师们称，特朗普面临著“无法挽回的损失”，因为即使他最终胜诉，这笔钱也很可能无法追回。 2023年，曼哈顿一个联邦陪审团裁定特朗普对性虐待和诽谤卡罗尔负有法律责任，并判令他支付500万美元的损害赔偿金。作家卡罗尔在庭审中作证称，近30年前，特朗普在曼哈顿一家百货公司强奸了她。陪审团最终裁定特朗普构成性虐待，但强奸指控不成立。 特朗普称该判决是一场耻辱，并表示他从未见过卡罗尔。最高法院驳回其上诉后，他表示将继续“倾尽全力，与这起针对我的政治武器化和法律战案件抗争到底，包括那项荒谬的诽谤指控。” 该案是卡罗尔对特朗普提起的两起民事诉讼之一。在2024年的另一场审判中，另一个联邦陪审团裁定特朗普须支付8300万美元，以赔偿他在首个总统任期内发表的诽谤性言论。当时他指责卡罗尔捏造性侵事件是为了给自己的书炒作。特朗普否认自己有不当行为。 一家联邦上诉法院维持了8300万美元的原判。特朗普的律师表示，他们打算请求最高法院审理这起上诉。 责任编辑：李桐

The July 2-7 trip to Denmark, Sweden, Finland and Norway marked China’s highest-level diplomatic engagement with the region in more than a decade. It underscored Beijing’s urgency to prevent a broader shift in economic ties as the European Union weighs protective measures in response to a widening trade deficit with China.

Brown University Prof Bans Take-Home Exams After Mass-Cheating Authored by Jennifer Kabbany via The College Fix, A Brown University professor says he will no longer allow students to take exams at home after he caught a large chunk of his class cheating on a test. Economics Professor Roberto Serrano said he allowed students to take a midterm at home, and 40 students, nearly half the class, earned a perfect 100 ; among the 86 students in the class, the average overall class score was 96, the Chronicle of Higher Education reported July 6. “I immediately knew that something was fishy. In previous editions of the course, the average grade in the midterm ranged from 65 to 80,” the Ivy League professor said. He said further review seemed to confirm his suspicions, so he told the class: “I’m not going to declare it void for now. I’m going to give the class a chance to prove me wrong. If the distribution of grades in the final exam looks roughly similar to the distribution of grades on the midterm, then I’ll count the midterm. If not, I will declare the midterm null and void. Also, the final will be in person.” Serrano told the Chronicle that, unfortunately, his fears were confirmed. “Between the midterm in March and the final in May, there was a consistent flow of students dropping the class — many of them had scored 100 on the midterm,” he said. “Of the 59 students that took the final, 19 of them failed, so they also failed the course. Quite a few showed up, signed the exam, and turned it in blank. The average grade for this final was by far the lowest in the history of this course.” Underscoring the cheating scandal, Serrano is blind, and has had to overcome numerous hurdles as a student and an academic. Asked what he thinks of students taking the easy route, Serrano said they’re only selling themselves short. “ A culture of effort and hard work should be inherent to learning. I worry many of our students now have the wrong idea , believing that the answer to any questio...
