在期中选举惨败后,美国共和党联邦众议员马西(Thomas Massie)针对不得人心的伊朗战争,提案弹劾战争部长赫格塞斯(Pete Hegseth)。目前仍占多数的共和党人周二(10日)投票否决此案,但明年1月将掌控国会多数的民主党已表态推动弹劾。

《美联社》报道,共和党在期中选举挫败后,党内不少人将失利归咎于持续逾8个月的伊朗战火及随之飙升的油价。然而,在总统川普明确表态力挺赫格塞斯后,共和党议员大多选择归队护航,周二进行程序性表决,以211票赞成、204票反对的结果将法案送交委员会,阻止该案交付全院表决,等同封杀由马西发起、并获民主党支持的弹劾行动。

马西在决议案中列出8项弹劾条款,指控赫格塞斯“明知故犯地执行非法命令”,不仅大幅裁撤五角大厦减少平民伤害的专责人员,导致美军飞弹误击伊朗小学造成上百人丧生,更企图惩罚呼吁部队抵制非法命令的退役海军飞行员。马西痛批,依法若未获国会授权,美军须在60天内撤出敌对行动,如今战事已持续256天,赫格塞斯公然违法。

赫格塞斯随后在五角大厦召开记者会反击,批评马西是破坏体制的离群者,反驳相关指控仅是“政策歧见”,绝非宪法规定的叛国、受贿或重大罪行,更直言弹劾案是在告诉伊朗等敌人“美国会惩罚成功执行军事任务的自家人”,痛斥该提案“不是爱国,而是蓄意破坏”。

川普与副总统范斯也在社群平台发文声援,川普大赞赫格塞斯的辩护表现拿到“A+++”,并痛骂初选落败的马西是个彻头彻尾的鲁蛇;范斯则嘲讽弹劾案只是一场取代实质政策制定的荒谬闹剧。

报道指出,这场表决恐怕仅是暂时阻挡弹劾浪潮。预计于明年1月接任众议院议长的民主党领袖傑佛瑞斯(Hakeem Jeffries)已明确表态“坚决支持”弹劾,痛批赫格塞斯是伊朗战争的总设计师、严重滥权并危及国家安全。参议院民主党领袖舒默(Chuck Schumer)也已公开表态支持这项弹劾案。

Netizens complained that the booking was rejected after writing "Taiwan, China" in the booking form. Ye Yaoyuan said: If you want to come, you will violate our country's national dignity.

When Chinese netizens applied for an entry permit to visit Taiwan, they were asked to make a replacement copy because the word "Taiwan, China" appeared on the hotel reservation form, and they were required to sign a letter of respect for Taiwan's sovereignty and independence. Ye Yaoyuan, a professor of international studies at the University of St. Thomas in the United States, criticized the move as undermining Taiwan's national identity and pointed out that Taiwanese people who go to China are often asked to "remove Taiwan's sovereignty" to interact. He said that he would not change his political identity or kowtow to China as a result.

Luo Dayou blasted the cultural circle for licking the government. Shen Rongqin criticized the accusations for lack of evidence: It saves effort to use color to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy.

Senior musician Luo Dayou criticized the Democratic Progressive Party in a radio program for lowering Taiwan's cultural standards. He also named Minister of Culture Ono for "not being able to protect himself during the late festival." He also questioned Ma Shifang's green stance. Shen Rongqin, an associate professor at York University in Canada, issued an article criticizing Luo Dayou for not keeping up with the times. He accused Luo Dayou of being naive and lacking in evidence. He also bluntly said that at the age of 72, he still speaks with the anger of a young man 40 years ago, which is inappropriate and tragic.
