Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Lakshmi Singh. Congressional Democrats and reportedly some Republicans are expressing alarm after U.S. Senator Alex Padilla of California was forcibly removed from Homeland Security Secretary's Kristi Noem's press conference today about the administration's immigration enforcement. Also, I want to talk specifically to the rioters [骚乱者] and to the politicians in Los Angeles. Video captured agents forcing Senator Padilla to the ground and handcuffing [用手铐铐住] him when he tried to ask questions about the raids [（对非法移民的）搜查]. Secretary Noem says Padilla just showed up and didn't identify [告知别人自己是谁] himself. Padilla, though, told reporters even though he was arrested [逮捕], he was not detained [拘留], the experience showed something else. If this is how this administration responds to a senator with a question, if this is how the Department of Homeland Security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing, to farmers, to cooks [厨师], to day laborers. Noem, meanwhile, had this response. I wish that he would have reached out and identified himself and let us know who he was and that he wanted to talk. His approach, you know, was something that I don't think was appropriate at all. Padilla said he clearly identified himself, though. Other congressional Democrats have also tried to gain access to constituents [选区的居民] detained by ICE, but say they have been consistently blocked. The administration says its actions, including the deployment [部署] of National Guard members and Marines to the site of protests in Los Angeles, is justified [有理由的] to restore and maintain security. Critics say the actions are authoritarian [独裁的] in nature. The death toll [死亡总人数] from the plane crash shortly after takeoff in India earlier today includes now 241 people who were on board, all but one. The BBC has spoken to the cousin [表兄弟] of a British man who authorities say is the sole [唯一的] survivor. NPR's Lauren Frere has more from London. Speaking to the BBC outside his home in Leicester in the British Midlands, Ajay Valgi says two of his cousins were on the Air India flight that crashed just after takeoff in western India. One of them, Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, managed to climb out of the wreckage [残骸] and call his family in Britain. He only said that he's fine, nothing else. He just said he's fine, his cousin says, and that he was still searching for his brother who'd been in the seat next to him. From his hospital bed, Ramesh told an Indian newspaper that, 30 seconds after takeoff, there was a loud noise and the plane crashed. There were bodies [尸体] all around me. I was scared. I stood up and ran, he was quoted [引述] as saying. Lauren Frere, London. The crash also claimed the lives of dozens of people on the ground. The U.S. House of Representatives has approved a package of funding cuts designed to claw back [把支付的钱收回] $9.4 billion in foreign aid and funding for public media. The measure was approved by a vote of 214 to 212. President Trump has asked Congress for this rescission [撤销（资助）]. He has labeled NPR and PBS as ideologically [意识形态的] biased [有偏见的] and the move to strip [除去] them of federal support is part of the president's continued attacks on mainstream media outlets. The legislation is the first request by the Trump administration for Congress to rescind [撤回] money for programs that were already approved in annual spending bills [年度预算案]. The International Atomic Energy Agency [国际原子能机构] has declared that Iran is out of compliance [没有合规] with its obligations [责任] around its nuclear program. NPR's Jeff Brumfield reports the allegation concerns several sites. In 2019 and 2020, inspectors [检察员] found uranium [铀] particles at three sites, including a warehouse [仓库] where Israeli agents had uncovered [发现] a vast trove [秘密贮藏] of secret nuclear weapons-related documents and equipment. That warehouse was storing parts of an undeclared nuclear weapons research program conducted by Iran in the early 2000s. The IAEA says that Iran has not explained the presence of the uranium particles, and it says Iran is now out of compliance with its obligations. The declaration comes amid growing pressure from the U.S. to reach a new nuclear deal and threats from Israel of military action. U.S. stocks have ended the day higher with the Dow closing up more than 100 points.

 Live from NPR, I'm Lakshmi Singh. The mayor [市长] of Los Angeles says the city could lift its curfew [宵禁] if there are fewer arrests tonight. She says it also depends on the federal government's response to the protests over its immigration enforcement actions. Earlier, there were no signs of the 700 Marines [海军陆战队] President Trump deployed [部署] to the city to join thousands of National Guard members protecting federal buildings. NPR's Quill Lawrence reports Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth faced a range of questions on Capitol Hill [国会山] today from U.S. senators, and one focus was the administration's orders to send Marines to Los Angeles. Senators from both parties questioned Secretary Hegseth about the Trump administration's commitment to aid Ukraine and cuts to the federal workforce. Hegseth praised Trump and defended his policies, including the decision to send National Guard and U.S. Marines to demonstrations in L.A. In one heated exchange, Connecticut Democrat Chris Murphy compared that to Trump's reluctance [犹豫] in 2020 to act against pro-Trump demonstrators who attacked the Capitol on January 6th. I support the decision that President Trump made and requesting the National Guard that was denied. So you do not, you do not support the decision, you do not support the decision to send the National Guard here to defend the Capitol. I think that speaks to the worry that many Americans have that there is a double standard. Hegseth left open the possibility that U.S. troops might be sent to other cities. Former film mogul [大佬] Harvey Weinstein, who became an emblematic [标志性的] villain [恶棍] of the Me Too movement, has been convicted [定罪] of a 2006 sexual assault at his retrial in New York. He was acquitted [判定无罪] on a second similar charge, and a third charge of rape resulted in a hung jury [陪审员意见不一致]. Weinstein was retried after New York appeals court overturned [推翻] his rape conviction on procedural grounds [由于程序问题] over a year ago. He will remain in prison as he appeals [上诉] a separate conviction for sex crimes in California. Beach Boys co-founder Brian Wilson died on this date. In this place of this cause, the singer, songwriter, and producer was 82 years old. NPR's Chloe Veltman reports Wilson took the three-minute pop song into new dimensions. Brian Wilson was a California boy who became famous singing about California girls. But it was the 1966 album Pet Sounds, produced when Wilson was suffering from hallucinations [产生幻觉] and depression [抑郁], that sealed his reputation as a musical mastermind [音乐天才], as fellow rock star Linda Ronstadt told NPR in 2020. It was a revelation [揭示]. Brian Wilson is a genius. I love his music. It cheered me up. Wouldn't it be nice if we were older than that? In his later years, Wilson's musical project included a reunion album and tour with the Beach Boys. It's unclear when Wilson died or what the cause of death was. It's NPR. As AI companions gain popularity, some users are turning to them for emotional support, perhaps even something close to love. But as NPR's Windsor Johnson reports, experts warn that digital relationships may come with hidden costs. AI romance is having a moment. These mates are attentive [留心的], emotionally available, and entirely fictional [虚构的]. Psychologist [心理学家] Lori Gottlieb says that's part of the appeal [吸引人的地方]. The bot is very predictable. The bot is going to be there for you in the way that you hope. Chatbots are great listeners. They mimic intimacy [模仿亲密]. But Gottlieb says something's missing. There are no shared experiences. It's just the two of you in a bubble of validation. And that's going to start to feel really empty. It might feel comforting, like a nice blanket. That blanket feels good and keeps you warm in the night. But in real life, Gottlieb says it's not a relationship that carries with you into your day. Annual inflation [通货膨胀] picked up a little steam last month as the early effects of President Trump's tariffs began to show up in the prices that U.S. shoppers pay. Consumer prices in May were up 2.4 percent from a year ago, according to a report today from the Labor Department. It marked a slight increase from April. However, measured on a monthly basis, prices rose just a tenth of 1 percent from April to May. U.S. stocks have ended the day lower. The Nasdaq closed down nearly 100 points. The Dow was down slightly. The S&P was down 16 points.

 Live from NPR, I'm Lakshmi Singh. The state of California is seeking an immediate federal court order to impose restrictions on the National Guard and U.S. Marines mobilize [动员，部署] in Los Angeles while a lawsuit challenging the deployment [部署] moves forward. Meanwhile, President Trump says National Guard troops will remain in L.A. as long as needed. NPR's Franco Ordonez reports Trump is not ruling out [排除] invoking [援引] the Insurrection Act [叛乱法案]. Speaking at the White House, President Trump says that without the deployment of the National Guard, the ongoing protests in Los Angeles would be out of control. If we didn't send out the National Guard, and last time we gave them a little additional help, you would have, Los Angeles would be burning right now. Trump ordered thousands of National Guard troops to Los Angeles to address anti-immigration enforcement protests without the consent of California's Democratic governor, Gavin Newsom. Trump said he spoke to Newsom recently and said he was an incompetent [没有能力的] leader. Trump would not say how long the National Guard would remain in Los Angeles, only that they'll stay until there's, quote, no danger. Critics [批评者] accused Trump of manufacturing chaos [制造混乱]. It has been largely calm so far, a day after the L.A. area saw more demonstrations [示威]. The Trump administration says it is investigating whether the protests had financial backing [支持], suggesting it could be a foreign adversary [对手]. Critics are questioning the cost of the deployment on top of the price tag [花销] for this weekend's military parade [阅兵], celebrating Army's 250th birthday, estimated to cost tens of millions. All this casting a shadow over President Trump's visit this hour to Fort Bragg in North Carolina. Here's NPR's Tamara Keith. Trump's visit to the largest U.S. Army base by population also allows him to celebrate a campaign promise kept. The Biden administration had renamed the installation Fort Liberty, but Trump quickly had it changed back. The massive military parade featuring tanks and flyovers is on Saturday, which is also Trump's birthday. But he insisted it isn't about him. NPR's Tamara Keith reporting. Democratic Senators grill [拷问] the director of the National Institutes of Health on Capitol Hill today about cuts at the agency. Here's NPR's Rob Stein. NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya faced some angry questions from Democratic senators about the firing of hundreds of NIH staffers, termination [终止] of billions of dollars in grants [资助], and plans to cut the NIH budget by nearly 40 percent. Senator Richard Durbin said the cuts were devastating [毁灭] patients' hopes for future cures. How can you walk away from that? Listen, under my intention, not to walk away from that. I mean, I think that... But the budget speaks for itself. You cut $18 billion in research. Bhattacharya promised Durbin he'd work with Congress on the NIH budget. He also answered friendly questions from Republican senators who argued the NIH needs changes. It's NPR. World Bank officials project [预计] the global economy will manage to dodge [躲避] a recession [衰退] this year. Here's NPR Scott Horsley. The World Bank expects the global economy to grow just 2.3 percent this year. Back in January, forecasters were projecting nearly 3 percent global growth. That's been downgraded as a result of President Trump's trade war and the uncertainty that's followed. Trump has ordered double-digit tariffs on nearly everything the U.S. imports. And he's threatened to push import taxes even higher. World Bank forecasters say that will also put the brakes on the United States' own economic growth. They're projecting a growth rate of just 1.4 percent for the U.S. economy this year and 1.6 percent next year. That's about half the growth rate the U.S. enjoyed in 2024. Scott Horsley, Washington. As part of NPR's Climate Solutions Week, we take you to a western North Carolina community, population 100. It's rebounded [恢复] less than a year after Hurricane Helene. NPR's Chloe Veltman reports. Earthhaven Ecovillage isn't far from Asheville, but was fortunate to make it through Hurricane Helene relatively unscathed [没有受灾的]. The community is mostly self-sufficient [自给自足的] when it comes to power, water and food, and has access to chainsaws [电锯] and tractors [拖拉机]. Its residents are also required to cooperate. University of Washington climate scientist Rishi Sugala says this collective spirit is one solution in a world of worsening climate disasters. There's a lot of evidence that shows that the stronger a community's social cohesion [社会粘性] is, the better chances they have of resilience [顽强] from climate hazards [灾害]. Hurricane Helene was a climate-intensified storm that killed more than 100 people in North Carolina alone and caused billions of dollars in damages after it hit late last September.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Lakshmi Singh. More rallies [集会] in Los Angeles today, this afternoon near City Hall, calling for people detained [被羁押] by immigration enforcement agents in the past week to be released. It has been largely calm a day after largely peaceful protests devolved [变成] into violent confrontations [对抗] with officers following President Trump's National Guard deployment [部署] without the state's request. Trump said it was necessary. Local and state officials accuse him of manufacturing chaos [制造混乱] for his own political benefit. Trump is attacking California Governor Gavin Newsom over these protests. NPR's Frank Ordonez reports Trump's calling the governor grossly [极度] incompetent [无能力]. President Trump deployed 2,000 National Guard troops to crack down [镇压] on protesters whom he described as professional agitators [滋事者] and insurrectionists [反叛的人]. Trump was asked whether, as borders czar [沙皇], Tom Homan should arrest Newsom. Homan has threatened to arrest anybody who obstructs [阻碍] immigration enforcement. Trump replied it would be great if Homan arrested the governor and accused Newsom of seeking publicity [公众曝光]. Newsom later posted video of Trump's comments on social media. He wrote a president has called for the arrest of a sitting governor, calling it a, quote, unmistakable [清楚无疑的] step toward authoritarianism [独裁的]. Franco Ordonez, the White House. The president's extensive new travel ban is now in effect. NPR's Rachel Treisman reports it imposes total bans on nationals of 12 countries and partial bans on seven other nations, mostly in Africa and the Middle East. The ban blocks or restricts foreign nationals from countries including Afghanistan, Chad, Haiti, Iran and Somalia. The White House says they were chosen because of factors like insufficient screening [审查] and high rates of visa overstays in the U.S. It exempts people in several categories, including green card holders, adoptees [被收养的], diplomats [外交官] and athletic teams traveling for major sporting events. Legal experts say it may be less vulnerable [脆弱的] to legal challenges than Trump's 2017 ban, which was blocked, revised and upheld [支持] by the Supreme Court before the Biden administration rescinded it. Tropical storm bobber in the Pacific strengthened into a hurricane today. The storm at the time was about 150 miles southwest of Monsignor, Mexico. It had top-sustained winds of 75 miles per hour. The National Hurricane Center in Miami had said swells [此处指飓风] would affect portions of the coast over the next few days. U.S. stocks end the day mostly higher. The Nasdaq closed up 61 points to end at 19,591. The S&P was up five points. The Dow was down slightly. Sly [诡诈的] Stone, the remarkable, eccentric [古怪的] frontman [乐队里的首席歌手], singer, songwriter and producer of Sly and the Family Stone, has died. According to a statement from his family release, his death followed a prolonged [长期的] battle with chronic obstructive pulmonary [慢性阻塞性肺病] disease and other underlying health issues. He was 82 years old. A United Nations summit hosted by France and Costa Rica opened in the French Mediterranean city of Nice today. NPR's Eleanor Beardsley reports more than 60 heads of state are in attendance, along with thousands of scientists and policymakers. Scientific research boats, including a Norwegian three-mast [三个桅杆] tall ship, are part of the summit, which is taking place on the port of Nice. Scientists say the world's ocean problems include rising seas, plastic pollution, overfishing and the destruction of marine species and environments. This planet would be far too hot to live on if we didn't have the ocean. That's Lisa Levin, a scientist and professor at the University of California, San Diego. She says the ocean regulates the climate by absorbing [吸收] most of the heat from the atmosphere, provides food and much more. People recognize how important it is to the health of the planet. Levin and other scientists are calling on summit leaders to turn their recommendations into concrete [实在的] actions. Eleanor Beardsley, Nice. A judge has dismissed [撤销] director and actor Justin Baldoni's defamation lawsuit against his It Ends With Us co-star, Blake Lively. Lively had initially sued Baldoni for sexual harassment [性骚扰] and retaliation [报复]. It's NPR.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Janine Hurbst. President Trump is sending 2,000 California National Guard troops [国民警卫队] to Los Angeles as tensions flare [紧张局势升级] between protesters and immigration enforcement officers [移民执法人员]. This as a standoff [对峙] between the two groups continued for a third day. Saul Gonzalez of member station KQED has more from Los Angeles. About three dozen armed troops stood guard in downtown L.A. Civic Center Sunday morning. The area includes a detention [拘留] center where those arrested in recent immigration raids [对非法移民的搜查] have been taken for processing. Protesters showed up to challenge the military's presence in the city. They were joined by Democratic Congresswoman Maxine Waters, who says deployment [部署] of the National Guard is an act of intimidation [恐吓] by the Trump administration. Trump hates us. He hates sanctuary [庇护（移民）] cities. He's going to try and make an example out of us. And this is how he's going to get to have martial law [宵禁], because he wants to goad [刺激] us into a fight. California Governor Gavin Newsom is also accusing the Trump administration of trying to provoke [激怒] a response and is asking protesters to stay calm and nonviolent. I'm Saul Gonzalez in Los Angeles. A new Trump administration travel ban takes effect tomorrow, banning citizens of 12 countries from visiting the U.S. And travelers from seven other countries would face restrictions. Social worker Jim Ray helps immigrant families in South Carolina who fled [逃离] the Taliban [塔利班]-controlled Afghanistan [阿富汗]. Where it hurts the most is that the most vulnerable [脆弱的] in Afghanistan cannot have an opportunity to come any longer. And that is primarily because of the women's rights [权利] being stripped [剥夺] from them. Trump says the restriction is being imposed on countries that harbor [窝藏] terrorists, fail to cooperate on visa security, and have a high rate of citizens who overstay their visas. He says additional countries could be added to the travel ban as threats emerge around the world. Both Russia and Ukraine continue to carry out attacks after last week's peace talks in Istanbul again failed. The fighting is also undermining [破坏] those negotiations' sole [唯一的] accomplishment, an agreement to exchange thousands of prisoners and war dead. NPR's Charles Means has more. Russian authorities say air defenses downed more than 60 Ukrainian drones on approach to Moscow, forcing the temporary closure of two of the capital's main airports. The Ukrainian attacks followed Russia's deadly bombardment [轰炸] of Ukraine's second-largest city, Kharkiv, Saturday, that also injured scores of people. All that is a weekend agreement to exchange prisoners, and the remains of soldiers broke down in acrimony [激烈争吵]. Russia accused Ukraine of delaying the swap after Moscow's defense ministry brought trucks it claimed contained the bodies of Ukrainian soldiers to the border. In turn, Ukrainian officials claimed details for the exchange had never been finalized and accused Russia of playing, quote, dirty games. Charles Maines, Moscow. On Wall Street, investors will be closely watching a key inflation [通货膨胀] report due out this week. After a record-breaking season at the box office tonight, Broadway [百老汇] celebrates with the 78th Annual Tony Awards, Broadway's highest honors. Jeff London says all eyes are on the top award best musical, which can help a show become a hit. Five shows are up for the award, but only one can win. Will it be Buena Vista Social Club, based on the best-selling album of Cuban music, Death Becomes Her, based on the popular movie, or the original musical, maybe happy ending about robots who fall in love? All have ten nominations. When you're in love, you are the loneliest. Or will it be two shows based on true stories which feature corpses [尸体] in the plot [墓园的地下小间]? Dead Outlaw [逃犯], which picked up seven, or Operation Mincemeat, with four? For some of all to follow. All five shows will be doing numbers on the CBS broadcast Sunday evening, hosted by Cynthia Erivo. I'm Jeff London in New York. At the weekend box office, Lilo and Stitch took the top spot for the third weekend in a row, with an estimated $32 million. In second place, the John Wick spinoff [衍生剧], Ballerina, with $32 million. The movie makes a sideline character out of Keanu Reeves' John Wick, and focuses on Ana de Armas. The Lionsgate release cost a reported $90 million to make. In third place, Mission Impossible, the final reckoning, with $15 million. I'm Janine Herbst, and you're listening to NPR from Washington.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Nora Rahm. Police used tear gas [催泪弹] and flashbangs [闪光弹] to disperse [驱散] protesters [示威者] outside a federal detention [拘留] center in Los Angeles last night. They were protesting immigration raids [针对非法移民的搜查] across the city this week, in which dozens were arrested. Steve Futterman has more. Hundreds of people showed up in the downtown area. There was a large rally [集会] held near the federal detention center. We heard lots of speeches, but after the rally broke up, the anger turned into some violence [暴力]. Rocks and bottles, some concrete blocks, trash cans [垃圾桶] were thrown, even some spray painting on the detention center building. There were some confrontations [对抗]. We saw some people detained, but there's been no official word about any actual arrests. Steve Futterman reporting from Los Angeles. Kilmar Abrego-Garcia is back on U.S. soil. For months, the Trump administration had said it could not bring him back from El Salvador after he was swept up in an immigration raid and sent there by mistake in March. He's now in Tennessee facing federal criminal charges of being involved with transporting undocumented immigrants. Stocks gained ground this week amid positive signs for the U.S. job market. NPR's Scott Horsley has more. The Labor Department said Friday that U.S. employers added 139,000 jobs last month, roughly in line with what forecasters had predicted. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.2 percent. Factories and the federal government cut jobs in May, but that was more than offset [抵消] by job gains in health care and hospitality. Stocks rallied [上涨] after the jobs report was released. President Trump took to social media to urge [敦促] the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. But investors are betting the central bank will hold rates steady when policymakers meet later this month. For the week, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 1.2 percent. The S&P 500 index climbed 1.5 percent. And the NASDAQ jumped more than 2 percent. Scott Horsley, Washington. Russia struck Ukraine's second largest city, Kharkiv, in what the mayor said was the largest attack on the city since the full-scale invasion [入侵] began. At least three people were killed. NPR's Joanna Kisses reports. The attack on Kharkiv comes a night after Russia launched a wide-ranging aerial assault targeting nearly all of Ukraine. Kharkiv is in northeastern Ukraine, about 20 miles from the Russian border. Overnight on Saturday, the city was rocked by at least 40 explosions [爆炸], said Mayor Ihor Tetehov, writing on Telegram. He called it the most powerful attack since the full-scale invasion and said Russia used missiles, drones, and guided aerial bombs [制导航空炸弹]. Cease-fire talks between Russia and Ukraine have made little [很少的] progress. Russia has increased attacks on Ukrainian cities, often hitting civilians [平民], while Ukraine has destroyed bomber planes and military infrastructure [战争的基础设施], targeting Russia's war machine. Joanna Kisses, Kyiv. Scientists from around the world are gathering in the French city of Nice this weekend for next week's UN Conference on the Oceans and the Effect of Climate Change. Some American scientists are missing the event. The Trump administration has ordered scientists from federal agencies, such as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and NASA, not to attend. The fourth week of the Sean Combs sex trafficking [性贩卖] trial has concluded in New York City, with testimony [证词] from an alleged victim. This report by NPR's Isabella Gomez-Sarmiento contains mentions of sex [一般是用来指导家长此时换台]. A woman who testified under the pseudonym [假名] Jane to protect her identity spent much of Friday morning crying on the witness stand. She told the court that soon after she began dating Combs in 2021, he asked her to participate in sexual encounters with male escorts [应召侍者]. The woman agreed at first, but she said she later made it clear to Combs that she didn't want to keep having these, quote, hotel nights. Jane said they would often involve staying up 20 to 30 hours straight, taking multiple doses [剂量] of drugs. According to Jane, Combs paid her rent. When she pushed back on the hotel nights, she said he repeatedly brought up those payments. Combs' attorneys have said this was a consensual [同意的] relationship, not sex trafficking. In women's tennis, second seed Coco Gauff of the U.S. won the French Open today. She defeated the number one seed, Irina Sebelenka of Belarus [白俄罗斯]. This is Gauff's first French Open win and her second major trophy [将被] after beating Sebelenka in the U.S. Open in 2023.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston. A man who was wrongfully deported [遣返] to El Salvador by the Trump administration is on his way back to the United States. Kilmar Abrego-Garcia is expected to face criminal charges [控告] for allegedly transporting migrants into the U.S. In a statement, his attorney says, quote, due process [程序正义] means the chance to defend yourself before you're punished [惩罚], not after. President Trump has been promising his tariffs will help make America more prosperous [富裕的]. NPR's Scott Horsley reports there's evidence the tariffs could help the government's bottom line. The Congressional Budget Office, which says if all the tariffs in place at the beginning of the week stayed in effect for a full decade, it could cut the federal debt by $2.8 trillion, which is in the ballpark [大致数目] of that big tax cut and spending bill passed by the House, what it's expected to add to the debt over the next 10 years. In other words, the tariffs could help to fill the hole that congressional Republicans have been digging with that tax and spending bill. That's NPR's Scott Horsley reporting. Some congressional Republicans are stepping into the feud [争端] between President Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk, offering their take on a clash [冲突] that escalated [升级] by the hour this week. Tempers [脾气] flared [爆发] after Musk slammed [攻击] the massive tax cut and spending package that Trump favors, calling it a, quote, Disgusting Abomination [讨厌的东西]. North Carolina Congressman Mark Harris. What we've seen happen over the last 72 hours is really just a disagreement that has gone from policy to personal. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates the bill would add $2.4 trillion to the deficit [赤字]. The Labor Department is reporting a sharp drop in federal government employment last month. NPR's Andrea Shue reports 22,000 jobs were lost in May. President Trump has tried many things to slash [削减] the federal workforce, including dismantling [解散] certain agencies, setting in motion mass layoffs [裁员], and inviting nearly all 2.3 million federal workers to quit. But many of his efforts have been challenged by lawsuits. Federal judges have paused his sweeping overhaul [大修] of agencies. Thousands of federal workers who thought they were being fired remain on paid leave. The official numbers from the Labor Department do not reflect those who voluntarily left their jobs through the Trump administration's deferred resignation [推迟辞职] offer because they are still being paid through September. Already, though, with tens of thousands of people no longer doing their jobs, many government functions have been curtailed [缩减]. At last check on Wall Street, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 443 points. The Nasdaq Composite up 231. Today is the deadline set by the Department of Defense for most transgender [跨性别的] service members to leave the military. Steve Walsh from member station WHRO reports if they don't, they could be forced out. Pentagon memo [五角大楼备忘录] gave active duty troops [军人] until June 6th to voluntarily leave the military under a policy instituted by Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Guard [警卫队] and reserve [后备军] members have until July 7th. Pilot Jo Ellis with the Virginia National Guard says she'll stay until she's told to leave. I want them to put it in writing [写成信] and tell me why I'm no longer qualified [够资格的], right, next to all of my qualifications, right? A federal judge temporarily halted [中止] the ban, but the Supreme Court allowed the Trump administration to move ahead, while federal lawsuits challenging the policy moved through the courts. Veterans [老兵] and world leaders are gathering in Normandy [诺曼底] to mark the 81st anniversary of D-Day [此处指诺曼底登陆日]. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says honoring the turning point [转折点] in World War II is a reminder as the world faces growing threats. Today, the United States and France again rallied [集会] together to confront [对抗] such threats. Because we strive for [力争] peace, we must prepare for war. Ceremonies are honoring the Allied forces [盟军] who landed in France during the war, with tributes [致敬] emphasizing the importance of their sacrifice [牺牲]. On Wall Street, the Dow up 443 points, the S&P up 61.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston. President Trump says he's surprised and disappointed [失望的] by Elon Musk's criticism [批评] of his massive tax cut and spending package. NPR's Danielle Kurtzleben reports the tech billionaire's comments come just days after he stepped down as the head of the Department of Government Efficiency [政府效率部], or DOGE. Earlier this week, Musk called the bill a disgusting abomination [令人反感的东西] pointing to its cost. The nonpartisan [非党派的] Congressional Budget Office has said the bill would add $2.4 trillion to the debt. The CBO has also found the bill, which cuts Medicaid [美国医保], would leave nearly 11 million more people uninsured [没有保险的]. Trump dismissed [驳回] Musk's criticism today, saying Musk, the CEO of electric carmaker Tesla, is upset that the bill gets rid of tax incentives [税务奖励] for electric car buyers. All of a sudden he had a problem, and he only developed the problem when he found out that we're going to have to cut the EV mandate [电动车推广政策], because that's billions and billions of dollars. Shortly after, Musk posted on Twitter, quote, Without me, Trump would have lost the election. Danielle Kurtzleben, the White House. A unanimous [一致的] Supreme Court has ruled that Catholic charities [天主教慈善团体] can opt out [选择不] of participating in Wisconsin's unemployment compensation program [失业救济计划]. Wisconsin Public Radio's Danielle Kading reports that justices found the state was wrong to deny the group a religious tax exemption [即宗教团体可以不纳税]. Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the state violated the First Amendment's guarantee of religious freedom by requiring a Catholic Charities Bureau to pay unemployment tax. Wisconsin law exempts nonprofit groups that run primarily for religious purposes, but the state's highest court had found that its work was primarily charitable and not religious. An attorney for Catholic Charities, Colton Stanbury, says the justices agreed that Wisconsin's high court discriminated against the group. We think that's a big win for religious liberty. One that could radically expand exemptions for hospitals with religious ties in Wisconsin and nationwide. Carbon dioxide [二氧化碳] levels in the atmosphere have reached a new high for modern record-keeping. NPR's Jeff Brady reports that scientists at the Mauna Loa Observatory in Hawaii say that for the first time, concentrations have exceeded 430 parts per million. Humans burning of fossil fuels releases the greenhouse gas into the atmosphere. There, the CO2 acts like a blanket [毯子] that warms the lower atmosphere, leading to more extreme heat waves, droughts [干旱], flooding, and wildfires. The Mauna Loa Observatory is considered the global benchmark for monitoring CO2 concentrations. Levels peak every year in May in the Northern Hemisphere before plants absorb [吸收] CO2 during the summer growing season. The Scripps Institution of Oceanography [海洋学] says last month the concentration was 3.6 parts per million higher than a year ago. At last check on Wall Street, the Dow was down 108 points. Smoke from ongoing wildfires in Canada continues to drift [漂移] southward, prompting [引发] air quality alerts [警报] in several U.S. states. Health officials are urging [敦促] residents, especially those with breathing conditions, to limit outdoor activities and use air purifiers indoors. Forecasters say there's a chance air quality alerts may be extended into Friday, as temperatures across much of the eastern U.S. continue to spike ahead of a rainy weekend. The Nintendo [任天堂] Switch 2 is being released worldwide today. It's following up on one of the most popular consoles [主机] of all time and comes as U.S. tariffs have rattled [扰动] the video game industry. NPR's James Mastro-Marino reports fans are excited about the new gaming system. Fans cheered as Christopher Evangelista became the first person to buy a Switch 2 at Nintendo New York. Evangelista had camped out outside the store for two months to stay in front of the line. Nintendo projects to sell 15 million of the consoles this financial year [财年], which ends March 2026, even after the company delayed pre-orders in response to the high tariffs that hit the Asian countries that manufacture the console. Game one of the NBA Finals is tonight in Oklahoma City between the Thunder [雷霆队] and Indiana Pacers [步行者队]. Oklahoma City finished the regular season with the league's [联盟] best record at 68-14 before eventually winning the Western Conference Finals. The Pacers won the Eastern Conference.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston. President Trump says he spoke with Russian President Vladimir Putin by phone today. NPR's Franco Ordonez reports Trump says they discussed Ukraine's recent strikes [打击] on Russian aircraft. President Trump says on social media that the two leaders spoke for about an hour and 15 minutes, about Ukrainian and Russian strikes, as well as the ongoing nuclear [核的] talks with Iran. He wrote, quote, It was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate peace. Indeed, Trump said Putin told him, using strong language, that Russia will have to respond to the recent attacks on its airfields. Trump also says he told Putin that Iran cannot be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. Trump says he believes Putin agrees with him on that. According to Trump, Putin suggested that he could help facilitate [辅助] those discussions. Franco Ordonez, the White House. Smoke from wildfires burning across central Canada is spreading from the Midwest to the East Coast, prompting [引发] air quality alerts [警报]. NPR's Jeff Brady reports authorities [官方] in Pennsylvania are asking residents to drive less and conserve electricity to reduce air pollution. Wildfires in Canada forced more than 27,000 people to evacuate [撤离] their homes. The smoke prompted warnings in Minnesota and Wisconsin and has now spread to Pennsylvania, where the Department of Environmental Protection, or DEP, says warm weather is increasing ozone [臭氧] pollution. In the Philadelphia area, Susquehanna Valley and Lehigh Valley, the DEP declared a Code Orange Air Quality Action Day. People with breathing problems, children, and the elderly were advised to stay indoors. Wildfire smoke is a growing health problem across the U.S. as human-caused climate change increases the risk and intensity of fires. Jeff Brady, Philadelphia. The U.N. Security Council [联合国安全理事会] is meeting at this hour to consider a resolution [决议] demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. NPR's Michelle Kellerman reports the Trump administration is expected to veto [否决] it. The draft [草案] put forward by the 10 non-permanent members of the Security Council demands a quote, immediate, unconditional [无条件的], and permanent ceasefire [永久停火] in Gaza, respected by all parties. It calls on Hamas to release all hostages [人质] and Israel to lift a blockade [封锁] on aid. The U.S. argues that the resolution undermines [破坏] its efforts to reach a ceasefire that reflects the realities on the ground, and it draws a, quote, false equivalence [等价] between Israel and Hamas. An official calls that wrong and dangerous. The official, who is not authorized to speak publicly, says the U.S. tried to make changes to the draft, adding that it's not an outcome the Trump administration wanted. Michelle Kellerman, Washington. The Pentagon [五角大楼] is planning to rename the U.S. N.S. [navy ship，即军舰] Harvey Milk, a Navy ship named after the pioneering gay rights [同性恋权益] icon [著名人物]. The Department of Defense is considering a list of possible name changes for other ships as well. Possible replacements include the names of the late [已故的] U.S. Supreme Court justices, Thurgood Marshall and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. In a statement to NPR, the Pentagon said Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is committed [致力于] to ensuring that the names attached to all DoD installations [设施] and assets [财产] are, quote, reflective of the Commander-in-Chief's priorities [优先事项] and the nation's history. There's a new number one song in America, and it's by a fresh face. NPR's Stephen Thompson has the story. This year, familiar stars like Kendrick Lamar, SZA, and Morgan Wallen have dominated [统治] the top of the Billboard charts [排行榜单]. But on the Hot 100 singles chart, there's a new name at number one. After a four-month rise, Alex Warren has finally topped the chart with Ordinary. Oh, why are you taking me out of the ordinary? I want you laying me down till we're getting buried. With its mix of soaring pop and signifiers of praise music, the uplifting [鼓舞人的] love song tops the chart just in time for the height of wedding season. Ordinary had to leapfrog [超越] three songs by country star Morgan Wallen in order to hit number one. Wallen's new record, I'm the Problem, tops the album chart for a second straight week.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston. The Trump administration has sent a letter to U.S. trading partners, giving them a Wednesday deadline to make their best offers [最优惠的报价] and negotiations over the steep [高额的] tariffs the president proposed in April. NPR's Tamri Keith reports the pause on those tariffs is set to run out next month. Facing market backlash, President Trump paused the bulk [大部分] of the tariffs, saying that would allow time to negotiate bespoke [定制的] deals with each trading partner. But well over halfway through the pause, the deals have been slow to come together. White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt insists that will change soon. This letter was simply to remind these countries that the deadline is approaching and the president expects good deals, and we are on track for that, I will emphasize. She said administration officials are in active talks with key trading partners. The tariff pause is set to end on July 8th. The White House is pushing for additional money to fund FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency，美国联邦紧急事务管理局). NPR's Rebecca Hersher reports the request comes despite repeated threats from the Trump administration to slash [削减] the agency. In new budget documents from the White House, the Trump administration requests more than $26 billion in funding for disaster relief [救灾]. It's about $4 billion more than President Biden requested in his final budget. The increase comes at a time when the Trump administration is also moving to eliminate FEMA and move more disaster responsibility to state governments. The president has said he does not think the disaster agency should exist in its current form, and he appointed [任命] a group of high-level federal officials, governors, and emergency experts to propose drastic [剧烈的] changes to the agency. Immigration officials have detained [羁押] the family of the man charged in Sunday's violent attack on peaceful demonstrators in Boulder, Colorado. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Christy Noem. We're also investigating to what extent his family knew about this horrific attack, if they had any knowledge of it, or if they provided support to it. Mohamed Suleiman used a makeshift [简易的] flamethrower and hurled [扔] Molotov cocktails [装在酒瓶里的爆炸物] into a small crowd that was calling for the release of Israeli hostages [人质] in Gaza. The Egyptian national is now facing a federal hate crime charge and 16 counts of attempted murder. He was living in the U.S. on an expired [过期的] tourist visa. In New York, closing arguments are wrapping up today in the third sex crimes trial of disgraced [声名狼藉的] movie producer Harvey Weinstein. The 73-year-old is already serving a 23-year sentence from his Los Angeles conviction. Jurors [陪审员] are expected to begin deliberations [评议案情] tomorrow. At last check on Wall Street, the Dow was up 214 points, the Nasdaq up 156. People across much of Minnesota woke up to hazy [雾霾的] skies after smoke blew in from major wildfires burning across central Canada. Matt Sepik of Minnesota Public Radio reports. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency says the air across the eastern half of the state and part of Wisconsin is unhealthy. Officials are urging people to limit outdoor excursion [户外旅行] if possible and wear N95 masks. An air quality alert remains in effect across the region through midday Wednesday. That's Matt Sepik reporting. Singer Rick Astley's 1987 hit Never Gonna Give You Up has surpassed one billion streams on Spotify. NPR's Chloe Beltman reports the British pop star owes much of the song's success to the fact it became an internet joke in the 21st century. Rick Astley's earwormy tune [洗脑的旋律] zoomed [直线上升] to the top of the charts in the US and more than 20 other countries in 1987. Never gonna give you up, Never gonna let you down, Never gonna run. Some two decades after its release the song took on new life thanks to the Rick-rolling trend. The online prank [恶作剧] involves clicking on a hyperlink [超链接] that takes you not to the web page you're hoping it leads to but instead to the Never Gonna Give You Up music video. A few other 1980s songs by British artists have reached one billion streams on Spotify. Among the nearly 1,000 who have reached the benchmark are Soft Cells, Tainted Love, and Every Breath You Take by the Police [乐队名字叫police].

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Windsor Johnston. The man accused of carrying out a violent attack on peaceful protesters in Boulder, Colorado, is making his first court appearance today. Prosecutors say the suspect told authorities [有关方面] he had been planning the assault [袭击] for a year. He's now facing federal hate crime charges. Colorado Public Radio's Haley May reports the Department of Homeland Security has identified the man as an Egyptian [埃及的] national who had overstayed his tourist visa. 45-year-old Mohamed Sabri Solomon is facing multiple felony [重罪] charges [指控] tied to the attack on a gathering in support of Israeli hostages in Gaza, including assault and the use of explosives [爆炸物]. The FBI is investigating the incident as an act of terrorism. Solomon had Molotov cocktails made from glass wine bottles and mason jars [一种密封罐], as well as a backpack weed sprayer [背包式除草喷雾剂] with gasoline [汽油]. He injured eight people, ranging in age from 52 to 88. Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser says one of the victims is a Holocaust [犹太人大屠杀] survivor. There's not only potential enhancements for a hate crime, there are potential enhancements for going after those who are older Coloradans. Solomon has no previous criminal history in Colorado. He faces federal hate crime charges in addition to the state charges. Newark Liberty International Airport has reopened a major runway nearly two weeks ahead of schedule after weeks of delays and cancellations. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says the completion comes just before the start of the busy summer travel period. Today we're celebrating the opening of Newark's runway. And this is a 60-day project that actually is completed 13 days early. The FAA previously limited flight operations at Newark because of the construction and a shortage of air traffic controllers. An exercise program for colon cancer [结肠癌] survivors can cut their risk of dying by one-third. NPR's Maria Godoy reports that's according to the findings of a first-of-its-kind trial. The study involved 889 patients who had completed chemotherapy [化疗]. Half were given information promoting fitness and nutrition [健康生活方式和营养]. The other half worked with a coach in a structured exercise program over three years. After eight years, patients in the structured exercise program had a 28% lower risk of their cancer coming back. Over the years, lots of research has shown that colon cancer survivors who are more physically active have a lower risk of recurrence [复发] and improved overall survival compared to those who exercise less. But the new study is the first randomized controlled trial to find similar improvements. The findings appear in the New England Journal of Medicine. At last check on Wall Street, the Dow was up 35 points. Weather officials say they're anticipating an above-average hurricane season. Forecasters have so far named at least 19 storms. Staffing and resources to track hurricanes has become a major concern this season. That's after the Trump administration fired hundreds of employees and cut some climate research programs. Goodyear will celebrate the 100th anniversary of its fleet of blimps [软式小型飞船] on Tuesday. Kabir Bhatia from member station WKSU has more. Goodyear was already making airships for the military when it launched its first officially branded Goodyear blimp on June 3rd, 1925. Goodyear assistant chief pilot Adam Bassran says they have a fleet [机队] of three. Each blimp rotates between air docks in Florida, California, and Ohio to ensure equal exposure [暴露] to the elements [此处指不同的气候状况]. Down in Pompano, they have salt air pretty close to the base. Out in LA, it's a sunnier environment, so there's UV [紫外线] issues. And here at Winkfoot Lake, we have an extended downtime in the winter. The Goodyear blimp is largely used as an advertisement for the company. Despite the name, the current models are technically classified as semi-rigid [半坚硬] airships. A recent study shows just how much time people spend scrolling [上下滑] on social media. The analysis conducted by the company Fast Hosts shows the average person scrolls just over 88 miles per year on various platforms. Researchers calculated the scroll distance based on the average daily usage and how much content users typically consume in a single swipe [滑动].

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Janine Herbst. Ukraine's President Zelensky says his country's security service planned a daring [大胆的] operation involving drones smuggled [走私] into Russia that hit 41 Russian warplanes in several airfields. NPR's Joannica Kisses has more. In his nightly video address, Zelensky said 117 first-person-viewed drones were used in what Ukraine's security services calls Operation Spiderweb [蜘蛛网行动]. Zelensky said, we prepared for this operation for more than a year and a half. The organization and details were perfectly prepared. In a statement, Ukraine's security service said about a third of strategic cruise missile carriers [战略轰炸机] in Russia's main airfields were destroyed at a total cost of about $7 billion. Russia often uses bomber planes to shoot missiles at Ukrainian cities, killing civilians [平民] and destroying homes. Russia's defense ministry confirmed the attacks. Joanna Kikisis, Kyiv. And peace talks are scheduled tomorrow in Istanbul. The Senate returns tomorrow as President Trump demands they support his massive spending bill. The House passed the so-called One Big Beautiful Bill Act, but some GOP senators say the current bill won't pass the Senate. NPR's Luke Garrett has more. A handful of Republican spending hawks [对政府花销强硬的鹰派] in the Senate are casting doubt on a bill that would enact [使实行] President Trump's domestic agenda [国内议程] of cutting taxes, increasing border spending and scaling back [缩小] safety net programs. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin told Fox News he supports Trump, but this bill fails to rein in [管控] U.S. spending. My loyalty is to the American people, to my kids and grandkids. We cannot continue to mortgage their future [此处指政府借钱过日子]. And Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky told CBS News the bill is too expensive to pass. I think there are four of us at this point, and I would be very surprised if the bill at least is not modified in a good direction. If the Senate makes changes, the bill would have to pass the House again before reaching Trump's desk. Luke Garrett, Washington. The Atlantic hurricane season gets underway today, and despite budget cuts by the Trump administration, the National Hurricane Center says it's ready for a busy season, NPR's Greg Allen reports. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration is projecting 13 to 19 named storms this season, with 6 to 10 hurricanes. Last year, five hurricanes made landfall in the U.S., three of them in Florida. The director of the National Hurricane Center, Mike Brennan, says the leading cause of death from hurricanes now is inland [内陆] flooding [洪灾], often in communities far from the coast. That was the case last year in Hurricane Helene. There were 175 direct fatalities [死亡] from Helene. The vast majority of them occurred in Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, well away from where Helene actually made landfall. Brennan is urging people to prepare a disaster kit [灾害防备包], know if they're in an evacuation zone [撤离区域], and listen to local emergency managers. Greg Allen, Miami. Federal forecasters are giving a heads up [预告] that a geomagnetic storm [地磁风暴] is expected to be severe, and that brings the chance of a spectacular [壮观的] northern lights display across much of the U.S. tonight. NPR's Amy Heldt has more. Think of it as a nighttime salutation [致意] from the sun. Sent Friday, a powerful coronal [日冕的] mass ejection [巨大的喷射] that's basically a chunk [一大块] of the sun erupted [喷发], says the Space Weather Prediction Center, hurtling [冲向] toward Earth. Charged particles [带电粒子] colliding with our atmosphere can create an aurora [极光], also known as the northern lights. Shimmering [发微光的] sheets of purples, blues, and greens. Tonight's could be visible as far south as Alabama, forecasters say, all the way to northern California. On a five-point scale, they put this geomagnetic storm at four. That's severe, but less intense than last year's that lit up skies the world over, and disrupted some power and communication systems. This time, forecasters say, GPS and voltage control problems are possible. At the weekend box office, Disney's Lilo and Stitch took the top spot again, with an estimated $63 million in ticket sales. The hybrid live-action movie has made $280 million, and it's the second highest-grossing [第二最高收入] film of this year so far. In second place, Mission Impossible, The Final Reckoning, with $27 million. It's taken in $353 million globally. That movie cost a reported $400 million to produce. In third place, Karate Kid Legends, with $21 million.

 Live from NPR in Washington, I'm Janine Herbst. The European Union says it's prepared to impose counter-tariff plans now that President Trump doubled his tariffs on steel and aluminum [钢铝产品] imports to 50%. An EU spokesperson says they had paused their tariffs in hopes of reaching an agreement. Terry Schultz has more. A spokesperson for the European Union's executive says the bloc [组织，此处指欧盟] strongly regrets Trump's decision to raise tariffs on steel imports from 25 to 50%. The decision adds further uncertainty to the global economy and increases costs for consumers and businesses on both sides of the Atlantic, the spokesperson said in a statement. They added that this move also undermines [破坏] ongoing efforts to reach a negotiated solution, which was the reason the EU decided in April to hold off imposing its own tariffs. But now the spokesperson says the European Commission is finalizing its decisions on countermeasures and will put them into effect on July 14th or even earlier if, in their words, no mutually [相互的] acceptable solution is reached. Elon Musk stepped down from the federal government yesterday and some people, including Republicans, aren't sad to see them go. NPR's Maria Aspen spoke with Senator Mike Rounds of South Dakota. Musk is leaving the Department of Government Efficiency, which is spearheading [引领] President Trump's efforts to shrink [缩减] the federal bureaucracy [官僚主义]. But many of Doge's indiscriminate [不加选择的] cuts have likely made the government less efficient. Senator Rounds tells NPR that if Musk and Doge really wanted to be effective, they needed to be more careful with their cuts and spend more time digging into what he calls the finer details. I think the president wanted him to come in with a scalpel [手术刀] instead of a sledgehammer [大锤]. And in some cases, Doge came in with a sledgehammer. Trump, meanwhile, wrote on his Truth Social Network that Musk, quote, will always be with us, helping all the way. Elon is terrific. Maria Aspen, Simi Valley, California. The United Nations says Israel banned [禁止] aid [援助] to Gaza from Jordan and Egypt. The move leaves hundreds of millions of dollars of food and medicine intended for Gaza stuck in warehouses [仓库] and on trucks. NPR's Jaina Raff has more from Amman. This UN warehouse on the edge of Amman is piled high with boxes of food, hygiene kits [卫生用品] and medical supplies. $24 million worth. It's been here for months. And now... We're looking at boxes of food here, which have been sitting here, you know, in some cases since January. That's Jonathan Fowler with the UN's Palestinian Refugee Agency. Among the food is 200,000 tons of flour, at risk of being thrown out [此处指因过期而被丢弃]. Israel has started a new mechanism to get food into Gaza, but it can only come from Israel, says the UN in Gaza. The Israeli military declined to comment on the change. Jaina Raff, Amman. Pharmaceutical [制药] company Moderna says the Food and Drug Administration has approved its new COVID booster vaccine, although the agency did put restrictions on who can get it. This new booster is a lower-dose [剂量] version that's a step toward next-generation coronavirus vaccines. Moderna says it expects to offer both the new vaccine and its existing COVID-19 shot this fall. The FDA approved the new vaccine for adults 65 and older and also for people age 12 to 64 who are at higher risk from the coronavirus. That's the same limit that the FDA set in licensing another vaccine option from Novavax. When people get a scratch [擦伤] or an infection, the body responds better if it happens during the day. NPR's Burley McCoy reports on how the immune system tells time. Scientists have known that many cells in the immune system have built-in circadian [生理节奏的] clocks, genes [基因] that tell them to respond differently depending on the time. But scientists weren't quite sure how the immune system was telling time. To figure it out, researchers used baby zebrafish, which are transparent, with modified immune cells that give off fluorescent [荧光] light. The team exposed the fish to fluorescent bacteria and watched how the immune cells responded when it was light or dark. During the day, the immune cells killed bacteria faster, but when researchers cut out certain circadian clock genes from the immune cells, they lost that ability. This knowledge could allow scientists to rally [集合] immune cells to respond to a bad infection. They published their findings in the journal Science Immunology [免疫学].
