新闻来源: 美国《政客(POLITICO)》杂志
明年(2017年)1月,美国总统当选人特朗普便将进入白宫领导美国,而共和党也

Schumer)、国会佛蒙特州参议员伯尼·桑德斯,和国会马萨诸塞州参议员伊丽莎白·
沃伦的支持。(观察者网注:他们三人可以算是目前民主党内最有声望的三人)
埃里森曾支持桑德斯竞选总统
沃伦就说道:“如果埃里森可以得到这份工作那简直是太棒了。”
而其他的国会民主党人也都加入到了支持他的队伍当中,而一个网上推举他参选的
呈请已经得到了53万个签名。
埃里森在2015年7月就曾经警告过民主党人们小心特朗普,现在... 阅读全帖 |

authorities imposed an overnight curfew in a 4-square-mile area, including
some of the city's poorest neighborhoods, to prevent looting and keep
streets clear for emergency crews. Mayor R.T. Rybak said one liquor store
was looted right after the tornado hit late Sunday and a few burglaries took
place overnight.
