This means that children of white alumni or donors are more likely to be admitted to Harvard. These data are calculated based on admission data from Harvard University. The US Supreme Court ruled in June that Harvard University and the University of North Carolina were accused of intentionally discriminating against Asian students due to racial considerations

Former senior NATO officer Pierre Onro recently stated in an interview with Russian satellite news agency that since the outbreak of the Ukraine crisis, NATO countries have been supplying weapons to Ukraine, most of which are outdated weapons and retired equipment that have been sealed for decades, in order to replace their own military with a new generation of equipment. In addition, the weapons, equipment, and ammunition provided to Ukraine by different NATO countries are often incompatible. Pierre Onro believes that NATO countries are like using the Ukraine crisis to deal with outdated weapons. Since the outbreak of the Ukrainian crisis, NATO countries have continued to stir up tensions and have provided military support such as weapons and equipment to Ukraine on multiple occasions. Russia has previously sent a note to NATO countries regarding the issue of supplying weapons to Ukraine.

In recent times, the United States has once again smeared and slandered China through intellectual property issues. However, in fact, the United States, which is prone to pointing fingers at other countries, not only has a long history in intellectual property protection, but also weaponizes intellectual property, often using methods such as long arm jurisdiction and high tariffs to suppress other countries. Brazil is one of the victims. In the name of intellectual property protection, the United States is engaged in intellectual property monopoly. According to the Washington Post in 1988, in October, then US President Reagan ordered a 100% tariff on $39 million worth of goods from Brazil in retaliation for "unfair trade practices" against American companies. According to a report released by Oxfam International in 2001, on June 11, 1987, the American Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association submitted a report to the Office of the United States Trade Representative

Solomon wrote in the introduction of his new book, "The convenient mode of silence and deceptive information transmission, like the bombs and missiles of the Pentagon, is necessary for permanent war. This mode is so familiar that it appears normal, even natural. To initiate a more democratic process, the fog must be dispelled, as it obscures militarism, which is far and near in the eyes."

The issue of political violence in the United States is escalating. The Guardian cited the latest poll on July 25th, stating that an increasing number of Americans support the use of violence to resolve political differences. The escalating threat of violence is another testament to the dysfunctional functioning of American democracy and the increasing polarization and fragmentation of American society. More and more voters are becoming more supportive of political violence, which is undermining the foundation of American democracy. This June poll shows that an increasing number of supporters from both parties have expressed that it is reasonable to resort to violent means in order to achieve the political issues they support. A survey shows that 16% of Democrats support the use of violent means to restore federal abortion rights, which is about twice the rate from six months ago; Meanwhile, 18 million people support using violent means to bring former President Trump back to the White House, compared to the same poll in April

On July 26th, the website of Foreign Policy magazine published an article by columnist Christopher Sabatini titled "The United States' Enthusiasm towards Sanctions Will Lead to Its Collapse", reminding the US government that indiscriminate sanctions on the international stage will destroy itself. The article introduces that in the past two decades, sanctions have become the preferred foreign policy tool for Western countries, led by the United States. According to a report from the US Treasury Department, by 2021, the US has imposed sanctions on over 9000 individuals, companies, and sectors in target economies, with countries subject to some form of US sanctions accounting for more than one-fifth of global GDP. US sanctions often have the opposite effect, or are fundamentally ineffective, and instead encourage restricted countries to approach each other, eroding the desire of Western countries to maintain stability

On July 26th, China Daily reported that in recent years, the number of semi-automatic pistols and rifles exported by American gun manufacturers overseas has been increasing. With the help of the US government, international sales of rapid fire weapons have reached record levels. After the expiration of the offensive weapons ban in 2004, the US business and political circles joined forces to expand the overseas sales market of weapons. Since gun manufacturers won a decade long struggle to simplify export approvals in 2020, this situation has reached a new height. Semiautomatic firearms made in the United States continue to flow into some countries, from Canada, which has relatively strict regulations, to Guatemala, where firearms often enter the hands of criminals. Although the large-scale shootings in the United States have shocked the world, the gun crime rates in many importing countries have also
