英文摘要 | The Evening: Testing Dispute, Oil Less Than Zero, Stones and MoreApril 20, 2020 Dispute Over TestingA $450 billion deal to aid taxpayers and businesses is stalled in Congress amid a dispute over testing. And meanwhile, South Carolina allowed retail shops to open on Monday with social distancing guidelines, and the governors of Georgia and Tennessee announced plans to ease restrictions on businesses in their states in the coming days, as the NYT reports. Oil Less Than ZeroU.S. oil futures plunged below zero for the first time Monday, a chaotic demonstration that there was no place left to store all the crude that the world’s stalled economy would otherwise be using, as the WSJ reports. Israel’s Unity DealIsrael's rival political leaders broke the country's unprecedented political impasse Monday when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and challenger Benny Gantz announced a deal to join forces and form an emergency unity government, as the Washington Post reports. On the HorizonWill data collection measures stay in place once the pandemic passes, and, if so, what new rules will govern privacy? CSIS Technology Policy Program director Jim Lewis discusses privacy after Covid-19. CSIS’s “On the Horizon” series offers insights into the more fundamental changes we might anticipate for our future social and economic world as a consequence of the Covid-19 pandemic.

Listen on Spotify & Apple Podcasts. SmilesOn Saturday night, Global Citizen’s One World: Together at Home Special , which raised funds for COVID-19 relief, broadcast a concert featuring many of the world’s most popular musicians brought together by Lady Gaga. The youngsters like Lizzo, John Legend, Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello were brilliant. But it was the oldsters like Sheryl Crow, Annie Lennox (with her daughter), Billy Ray Cyrus and Eddie Vedder that moved me the most. And then there were the Rolling Stones…who, STOLE THE SHOW. This is one to remember for any serious Stones fan. Mick, just off heart surgery is in magnificent form. Keith, regal and not doing too much but adding just the right touches on backing vocals. Ronnie, wow, Ronnie still seriously rocks. And Charlie air drumming along with a sly grin is too rich. All in sync Brady Bunch style. Sometimes, music is just what you need . |
