特朗普的私人俱乐部外的抗议活动是在国会大厦举行的一次较小的聚会之后，那里的六个民主党人来自众议院，参议院谴责了晚餐。

Protests erupted outside President Trump’s private club in Virginia ahead of a dinner with more than 200 buyers of his cryptocurrency tokens — the $TRUMP meme coin — amid allegations that he is selling access to the presidency to the highest bidder.

抗议活动在特朗普总统在弗吉尼亚州的私人俱乐部外面爆发，在晚餐前与200多名他的加密货币代币的买家 - 特朗普的模因硬币 - 他指控他正在向总统职位出售给最高出价者的指控。

The protests followed a smaller gathering at the Capitol, where half a dozen Democrats from the House and Senate denounced the dinner.

抗议活动是在国会大厦举行的一个较小的聚会之后，那里的六名民主党人来自众议院，参议院谴责了晚餐。

“It is a Mount Everest of corruption,” said Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore. He then read excerpts from the Constitution and cited examples in early American history of presidential corruption schemes. “We have to put an end to this,” he said.

D-Ore的参议员Jeff Merkley说：“这是腐败的珠穆朗玛峰。”然后，他阅读《宪法》的摘录，并在美国早期的总统腐败计划中引用了例子。他说：“我们必须结束这一点。”

The protest comes after several lawmakers spoke out against the president’s involvement in cryptocurrency.

抗议活动是在几名议员反对总统参与加密货币的情况下发表的。

“No politician could have designed a scheme better suited to facilitate corruption from foreign individuals than the issuance of a digital asset that largely conceals the identity of its buyer,” said Rep. Sam Liccardo, D-Calif., a member of the House Financial Services Committee who generally is supportive of the crypto industry.

“没有政治家可以设计一个更适合促进外国人腐败的计划，而不是发行数字资产，该资产在很大程度上掩盖了其买方的身份。”众议院金融服务委员会成员D-Calif。众议员Sam LiCcardo通常支持加密货币行业。

“It is a brazen abuse of the presidency and an offense to the principles of honest government in the United States.”

“这是对总统职位的虐待和对美国诚实政府原则的罪行。”

Earlier this week, the Senate advanced a bipartisan bill that would provide the U.S. with a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies.

本周早些时候，参议院提出了一项两党法案，该法案将为美国提供加密货币的监管框架。

The move comes amid a wave of enthusiasm for digital assets among lawmakers and the Biden administration.

这一举动是在立法者和拜登政府中对数字资产的热情浪潮中。

The House Select Committee on the Coronavirus Crisis also released a report this week highlighting how the Trump administration’s response to the pandemic was largely dictated by the president’s personal whims and how it flouted the advice of public health experts.

众议院冠状病毒危机选择委员会还发布了一份报告，该报告本周强调了特朗普政府对大流行的反应在很大程度上取决于总统的个人异想天开，以及它如何违反公共卫生专家的建议。

The bipartisan committee’s report, titled “The Troubled Response to the Pandemic,” details how Trump’s administration ignored the advice of scientists and public health experts in favor of the president’s personal preferences and political considerations.

两党委员会的报告标题为“对大流行的陷入困境”，详细介绍了特朗普的政府如何忽略科学家和公共卫生专家的建议，以支持总统的个人偏好和政治考虑。

The committee’s vice chair, Rep. Brian Baldassano, R-N.J., said in a statement that the report "uncovers a disturbing pattern of disregard for expert advice, chaotic decision-making, and a staggering lack of urgency in the Trump administration’s response to the pandemic."

The administration's response to the pandemic has been the subject of much scrutiny, with Democrats largely blaming Trump for the slow response and lack of coordination among federal agencies. Republicans, on the other hand, have praised the administration's efforts to develop vaccines and antiviral treatments in record time.

政府对大流行的反应一直是审查的主题，民主党在很大程度上将特朗普归咎于联邦机构之间的缓慢反应和缺乏协调。另一方面，共和党人赞扬了政府在创纪录的时间内开发疫苗和抗病毒药治疗的努力。

The pandemic has infected more than 84 million people in the U.S. and killed more than 1 million, according to Johns Hopkins University. It also triggered the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression.

约翰·霍普金斯大学（Johns Hopkins University）称，大流行已感染了8400万人，并杀死了超过100万人。这也引发了自大萧条以来最严重的经济衰退。

The House Select Committee on the Coronavirus Crisis was created in 2020 to investigate the pandemic response and make recommendations to prevent future crises. The committee is led by Rep. John Webber, D-Md., and Baldassano.

众议院冠状病毒危机的选择委员会成立于2020年，以调查大流行的反应，并提出建议以防止未来的危机。该委员会由D-Md的众议员John Webber和Baldassano领导。

The panel's probe included reviewing millions of documents, interviewing hundreds of witnesses and holding dozens of public hearings over the past three years.

该小组的调查包括审查数百万个文件，采访数百名证人，并在过去三年中举行数十次公开听证会。

The bipartisan committee’s report concludes that the Trump administration’s response to the pandemic was "marked by a staggering lack of urgency, coordination and planning."

两党委员会的报告得出的结论是，特朗普政府对大流行的反应“以惊人的紧迫性，协调和计划的惊人标志”。

The report says that the administration’s response was largely dictated by President Trump’s personal whims and that it flouted the advice of scientists and public health experts.

该报告说，政府的回应在很大程度上是由特朗普总统的个人异想天开所决定的，并违反了科学家和公共卫生专家的建议。

"The administration’s response to the pandemic was slow, chaotic and often driven by the president’s personal preferences and political considerations, rather than by the advice of scientists and public health experts," the report says.

报告说：“政府对大流行的反应是缓慢，混乱的，并且经常受到总统的个人偏好和政治考虑的驱动，而不是受科学家和公共卫生专家的建议。”

The panel’s report also criticizes the administration’s handling of the Paycheck Protection Program, which was designed to help small businesses stay afloat during the pandemic.

小组的报告还批评了政府对薪水保护计划的处理，该计划旨在帮助小型企业在大流行期间保持漂浮。

The report says that the program was poorly managed and that many small businesses never received the aid they needed.

该报告说，该计划管理不善，许多小型企业从未收到所需的援助。

"The Paycheck Protection Program was a poorly designed and executed program that failed to deliver the aid that was promised to small businesses," the report says.

报告说：“薪水保护计划是一项设计不佳和执行的计划，未能提供给小型企业的援助。”

The bipartisan committee’s report is likely to be part of the historical record of the Trump administration’s response to the pandemic.

两党委员会的报告可能是特朗普政府对大流行的历史记录的一部分。
