陈建仁陆续公布台新行政机构成员名单，媒体人赵少康批：新瓶装旧酒******
【环球网报道】据台湾中时新闻网28日报道，台行政机构即将改组，但任内争议不断的“农委会”主委陈吉仲、“卫福部长”薛瑞元与“经济部长”王美花都留任，对此，台“中广”董事长赵少康28日批评称，光有陈、薛两个成员，“内阁”根本与原来一样，“新瓶装旧酒，还是个‘斗鸡内阁’”。
报道称，赵少康提到，王美花的留任也很好笑，宣称是为了继续发展绿能，但台电、中油去年共亏损5000亿元(新台币)，今年还会亏更多，但还可用20年的第二核能发电厂二号机3月14日就要被民进党除役，“这样的浪费民脂民膏，虽然蔡英文是罪魁祸首，但‘经济部’为虎作伥的表现难道没有责任？”
赵少康批评称，蔡英文蔡嘴巴说团结，光是留用陈吉仲、薛瑞元，就知道她口是心非，根本没有要和解、团结的意思；这个拖拉、拼凑组成的“内阁”，看不到蔡英文败选后任何检讨改革的诚意，看到的只是争夺权利、自我保护的丑态毕露。
据中时新闻网报道，台“立法院”国民党团书记长李德维也批评表示，民进党当局用人仍旧不考量专业，仅考虑民进党内派系分配与平衡，整个“内阁”人事如同儿戏，“什么人都敢用”。李德维说，林右昌仅担任过30万余人口的基隆市长，没有“部会”负责人及民代经历，竟可担任“首席部长”；陈吉仲则有开放莱猪(含莱克多巴胺的美国猪肉)争议，还对蛋价与农渔产品无法输入大陆问题束手无策，薛瑞元护航“高端(台湾自产疫苗)”也受到质疑，两人表现竟“争议越大、官位越稳”。
据媒体此前报道，蔡英文1月27日召开记者会，正式宣布将由前副手陈建仁接替苏贞昌担任行政机构负责人，陈建仁27日晚间在脸书公布首波新任“阁员”名单，不过媒体人黄扬明看完名单后发现新面孔仅约九分之一，黄扬明讽刺，“只是换个‘院长’门面而已”。
28日，陈建仁又在脸书宣布第二波“内阁”改组人事，包括内务部门负责人由基隆市前市长林右昌接任、文化部门负责人由史哲接任。对于第二波人事变动，有岛内网友表示，每一个任用都好怪，真的是没人啦。(环球网)
中新网评：美国众议长选举“连续剧”暴露美式民主痼疾******
中新网北京1月9日电(蒋鲤)在15轮投票表决后，美国众议院议长选举这场“连续剧”终于落下帷幕，众议院共和党领袖凯文•麦卡锡最终成功当选第55任美国众议院议长。这是美国国会过去164年来耗时最久的一次议长选举记录，将美国“对抗式民主”的弊端暴露无遗。
资料图：美国众议院共和党领袖麦卡锡。中新社记者 沙晗汀 摄由于两党对立加剧、党派内斗、利益分配不均等因素，众议长选举陷入一场拉锯战。在此次众议长竞选中，美国民主党议员继续抱团，多轮投票中，一票不投麦卡锡，共和党右翼“强硬派”领头的约20人小团体也拒绝投票麦卡锡。
麦卡锡的当选之路一波三折，除了本人的“政治投机派”角色在国会不受欢迎外，与共和党内部政治分歧关系密切。
一方面，共和党党内反对者认为，麦卡锡对民主党态度过于软弱，无力对抗民主党控制的参议院和拜登政府，另一方面，因为共和党的多数优势微弱，党内一些影响力较小的派系的政治力量则被放大，有利于他们巩固自己的选票。
此外，党内反对者也认为，自己的选票没有换取更多利益，希望以此作为筹码换取麦卡锡更大的让步，比如让他们获得众议院重要委员会中的职务。
作为仅次于美国总统、副总统的政坛三号人物，众议院议长通常由众议院多数党领袖担任，选举几乎没有悬念。然而，麦卡锡此次为当选，不得不做出多个关键让步，其中可能包括恢复一项罢黜议长动议机制，使得众议长的权力被削弱，难以掌控众议院。
美国有线电视新闻网CNN称，麦卡锡在这场不合时宜的政治勒索中作出让步，这种绥靖政策只会让极端主义势力更加强大。
这场引发全世界围观的尴尬选举暴露出美国政治存在严重的对立和分化。在权力博弈思维的裹挟下，党派利益凌驾于国家和人民利益之上，美国两党相互拆台，陷入“为反对而反对”的无脑对垒。而即便是一党内，也会因为利益分配问题产生不同的小派系，相互对抗，选票变成了谋利益的工具。
从国会山骚乱到打破记历史记录的15轮众议长选举，“对抗式民主”让美国政治陷入瓶颈，长期对抗势必会让政客们丧失客观公正的判断能力，其政治阶层是否有能力治理国家也会引发质疑。
两党之争和党派内斗进一步放大了美国政治体制弊病，美国所谓的“民主”形象，让全世界大跌眼镜。鼓吹以选民利益为先的美式选举，变成了政客们利益置换的游戏，进一步彰显出美国“民主政治”日渐失能，不断极化的党争已使美国政治制度陷入死循环。
House speaker election reveals deep-rooted problems in U.S. democracy
(ECNS) -- The Republican leader Kevin McCarthy was elected as the 55th speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives after 15 ballots. As the most grueling House speaker election in the past 164 years, the election has highlighted the defects of the country’s "confrontational democracy".
The election once reached a stalemate due to intense partisan strife, inner-party struggle among the Republicans, uneven distribution of interests, and more. Democratic Party members forged a close alliance, refusing to vote for McCarthy, while about 20 Republicans also declined to cast ballots for the GOP leader.
Except for his unpopular role as a "political speculator" in Congress, McCarthy’s hard-won election can be attributed to turmoil within the Republican Party.
On the one hand, opponents in the Republican Party believe that the GOP leader's attitude toward the Democrats is too weak to confront the Senate controlled by Democrats and the Biden administration.
On the other hand, the political power of some less influential factions in the Republican Party has been amplified due to the Party’s weak majority advantage in the House of Representatives, which is conducive to consolidating their ticket warehouses.
Meanwhile, these opponents believe that their votes failed to win them more benefits, hoping to use this as a bargaining chip for McCarthy's further concessions, such as getting them positions in important House Committees.
As the third political figure after the President and Vice President of the U.S., the speaker, by tradition, is the head of the majority party in the House of Representatives.
But McCarthy has made many concessions in order to bring the ultra conservatives along, involving what’s known as the “motion to vacate,” a mechanism by which members can force a vote to depose the speaker. The reported concessions will empower individual members at the expense of McCarthy’s sway as speaker.
CNN thought the concessions he made during this unseemly political shakedown would only make the extremist faction more powerful.
This embarrassing election, which has drawn global attention, exposed the serious opposition and polarization in American politics. Both Democrats and Republicans put their interests before that of the country and its people, attacking and opposing each other irrationally.
Besides, different factions arise within a single party and confront each other because of the distribution of interests. Votes have become a tool to win more benefits.
From Capitol riots to the House Speaker election with record-breaking ballots, "confrontational democracy" has become a bottleneck of American politics. Long-term confrontation will surely impede politicians to think objectively and fairly while their capacity of governing the country will also raise doubts among the public.
Both parties’ struggle and infighting among the Republicans have further amplified the defects of the American political system, with its "democratic" image shocking the world.
The U.S.-style election, which advocates putting voters' interests first, has become a game of interest exchange among politicians. In addition, it further demonstrates the malfunction of American "democratic politics" and the constantly polarized party struggle that has trapped the American political system into an infinite cycle.
