绑着绳子从17楼跳下营救16楼轻生青少年、用扫把制服持刀吸毒男子、帮助社区老人从诈骗分子手中挽回80万元损失，下水勇救跳江女子……这些都是南昌市红谷滩区派出所社区民警陈国才扎根社区工作六年多来的难忘案例。
“陈警官特别热心肠，经常在小区遇见，脸上总是笑呵呵的，让人心里很舒服。”“只要居民在群里咨询办理居住证、防诈骗等问题，他总是有问必答，非常好”……今年77岁的南昌丰和社区老人苏大妈和老伴儿笑着告诉记者。
陈国才2009年12月从部队转业到南昌公安系统工作，荣立个人一等功1次，个人三等功2次，荣获江西省公安系统爱民模范、南昌市“优秀人民警察”等多项荣誉称号。2016年成为一名社区民警，负责辖内丰和社区和春晖社区两个社区的警务工作。
这两个小区均属于南昌红谷滩城区的老小区，人员复杂，流动性大。“刚开始接手社区的警务工作时，让我备感压力。”如何做好社区警务工作，从什么环节上来抓警务工作，陈国才经常加班加点查询资料，并向优秀的老社区民警学习请教。

为了更好的服务民众，陈国才一家一户上门走访，了解情况，同时摸排辖区治安不稳定因素。大到查找隐藏的案件线索，小到辖区居民的修锁、用水用电，他都会一一排查过问。
“老百姓的小事就是我们的大事”，作为一名社区民警，陈国才的工作几乎都是围绕辖区居民家长里短的琐碎小事，但他却把老百姓的这些“小”事看得很“大”。在他看来，聊天可以拉近警民关系，还可以发现不少居民之间潜藏的矛盾。
近年来，电信诈骗案件多发，陈国才负责的辖区中，外来人口数量较多，老年人居多。为进一步防范此类诈骗案件增多，陈国才白天进写字楼宣讲反诈骗知识，晚上入户走访并发动社区干部及志愿者利用小喇叭、宣传画、LED显示屏等多种方式在辖区进行无死角宣传，并组建居民微信群，不时发送各种反诈小贴士。
在陈国才的努力下，他所管辖的区域内诈骗类发案率在所在的单位也是最低。2020年8月至今，陈国才走进所管辖区宣传反诈骗活动两万余次，成功劝阻诈骗行为21起，挽回经济损失200余万元。
“把居民当成家人、朋友，真正去帮他们解决实际困难和纠纷，他们也会把你当家人，这个距离感觉一下子就近了。”谈及从事社区民警以来的最大感触，陈国才如是说。(完)
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。

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.
