The White House pushes a $1.8 trillion stimulus compromise plan, and both parties in Congress oppose it in unison

-
The Trump administration’s latest US$1.8 trillion economic stimulus proposal has been unanimously opposed by congressmen from both parties, making the United States less likely to pass a new round of stimulus plan before the November 3 election. Democratic House Speaker Pelosi said in a letter to members of the party that the Trump administration’s proposal lacks a "strategic plan to eradicate the virus," and that it has insufficient funds for state and local governments and families. Pelosi also said that the proposal gave Trump too much discretion in how to allocate funds. Pelosi hopes to restore the $600/week supplementary unemployment benefits that expired at the end of July, and allocate tens of billions of dollars to track close contacts, implement new crown pneumonia virus testing, and support vaccine development. "Right now, we still have differences on many important matters. As negotiations on the scale of relief funds continue, the Democratic Party is also waiting for the Trump administration's opinions on several provisions," Pelosi wrote. At the same time, Reuters quoted a person familiar with the matter as saying that during a conference call with Treasury Secretary Mnuchin and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows on Saturday morning, multiple Republican senators also spoke to Trang. The scale of the stimulus proposed by the general government expressed criticism. The White House said Mnuchin proposed a $1.8 trillion stimulus plan in a telephone meeting with Pelosi on Friday. The new proposal is higher than the $1.6 trillion previously proposed by Mnuchin and closer to the $2.2 trillion passed by the House of Representatives last week. Trump called a halt to negotiations on stimulus measures earlier this week, but recently he said that he has changed his attitude towards launching a rescue plan before the election. In an interview with right-wing radio host Rush Limbaugh (Rush Limbaugh), Trump said, "I would like to see larger stimulus measures, frankly, larger than those proposed by the Democrats or Republicans." However, White House spokesman Alyssa Farah said that the government hopes to control the stimulus to less than US$2 trillion, but advocates a new round of direct payments to individuals and assistance to small businesses and airlines. Senate Majority Party (Republican) leader Mitch McConnell (Mitch McConnell) is skeptical of passing the stimulus package before the election. He said on Friday that with the election approaching, at this particular moment, the two parties are still very divided on what measures need to be taken. The new crown pneumonia epidemic is still spreading in the United States. According to Worldometer's real-time statistics, as of about 6:30 on October 11th, Beijing time, a total of 7,941,954 confirmed cases of new coronary pneumonia in the United States, and a total of 219,244 deaths. Compared with the data at 6:30 the previous day, there were 57,752 new confirmed cases and 780 new deaths in the United States.

Retailers say demand for NVIDIA rtx3070 cards is still in short supply

 A Danish retailer has revealed how many NVIDIA RTX 3070 graphics cards it received before it launches next week - a slim choice. Proshop ordered 4280 RTX 3070 units from a number of suppliers including ASUS, MICROSTAR and Gigabyte. But as of Monday, it had only received 106 units, about 2.5% of the requested inventory. There are also 185 units. However, unless manufacturing goes into the super drive, retailers' RTX 3070s inventory will be negligible when these graphics cards go on sale on October 29. For customers eager to buy graphics cards, Proshop's numbers are not good. Initially, the $499 RTX 3070 was due to go on sale on Thursday, but NVIDIA decided to postpone the launch to offer more products on the day of the launch. According to Proshop, delays may not have much effect on improving inventory. There may be other retailers, such as Amazon, best buy and Newegg, who have better luck on RTX 3070. However, other RTX cards (3080 and 3090) are out of stock in all major retai...

 Since the end of last year, rumors have been circulating about oneplus's new generation of high-end computers for the first half of 2021. Earlier today, YouTube dave2d released a new movie containing a large number of live spy photos of oneplus 9 pro. The color of the mobile phone photographed inside is silver gray, and a curved 120Hz QHD + screen with a hole in the upper left corner is adopted on the front. In terms of display, it is a continuation of the characteristics of oneplus in the past two years. Turning to the back, the design of the rear camera module is similar to that of the oneplus 9 previously exposed, but the lens has one more hole and becomes a four shot combination. Interestingly, you can clearly see the words "Hasselblad" on this mahjong card. So not long ago, oneplus CEO Liu zuohu said that this year, we should strive to be "the first in the world" for new cameras. The way is to follow the example of Huawei, vivo and other brands, and find H...

The new Surface Laptop Go has attracted attention, and the entry price challenges the Chromebook market. The Surface Laptop Go is the same entry position as the Surface Go. The basic design is similar to the Surface Laptop series, but it uses a 12.4-inch 1536 x 1024 screen, and the body is lighter, weighing only 1.11 kg.
