自由派赢得威斯康星最高法院选举 特朗普今年首次受挫
尽管美国亿万富豪马斯克为保守派候选人撒钱拉票，威斯康星州选民星期二（4月1日）还是把一位自由派送入威斯康星州最高法院，保住4比3的自由派多数。
综合路透社和法新社，民主党支持的62岁县法官克劳福德（Susan Crawford），在星期二二的选举中击败共和党前州检察长希梅尔（Brad Schimel）。根据88%已计算选票，劳福德以19万1000张票领先于希梅尔。
希梅尔过后向支持者发言时承认败选，并与克劳福德通电话。
威斯康星州法院可对投票权、堕胎权和工会法作出裁决。
这是美国总统特朗普重返白宫两个多月来，首次遭到选举挫败；对特朗普的盟友马斯克来说也是一记重击。

elegram is updating its messaging app with options for auto-deleting messages, expiring invite links, and new unlimited groups, the company shared in a blog post. Much like Signal, Telegram received a burst of new users in the confusion over WhatsApp’s privacy policy and now the company is adopting features that were already part of its competitors’ apps, features which offer more security and privacy. Auto-deleting messages were already possible in Telegram’s encrypted Secret Chats, but this new update for iOS and Android adds the option to make messages disappear in any kind of chat. Auto-delete can be enabled inside of chats, and set to delete either 24 hours or seven days after messages are sent. Auto-delete won’t remove every message though; if a message was sent before the feature was turned on, it’ll stick around. Telegram’s competitors have had similar features: WhatsApp introduced a feature in 2020 and Signal has had disappearing messages since at least 2016.
