The dispute between two women in the Taiwan People's Party is getting more intense! Cai Bi-ru, an advisor to the Taichung City Government, recently challenged "Wolf Warriors" to participate in the election; Chen Zhihan, the director of the People's Party caucus, hit back, saying that advisors should not be involved in party activities, and criticized Cai for running a show part-time. Cai then hit back and said Chen was wrong. Seeing the palace infighting drama within the party come to the fore, People's Party Chairman Ko Wen-je said on the 26th that the outside world's claims were "too exaggerated."

Tsai Bi-ru participated in an online political talk show and revealed that she had heard someone "don't expect me to go back". She also called on the "Wolf Warriors" within the party to fight for the 2026 election. In response, Chen Zhihan, known as the "Wolf Warrior Sister", criticized that Tsai is a paid city government consultant and therefore cannot get involved in party affairs.

Chen Chih-han emphasized yesterday that she was speaking passively, and reiterated that the participation of civil servants in political activities has always been moderately regulated. Tsai is a paid consultant for Taichung City, which means she is a government official and, of course, a civil servant. Civil servants cannot hold concurrent party positions or part-time jobs. The so-called part-time job means hosting a show.

Tsai Bi-ru said that she did not participate in party and government activities. Many people hold public office and are party members. Can't everyone participate in party activities? She thinks Chen made a mistake and that Chen "doesn't know what he is talking about." As for Ko Wen-je's claim that she has always had a position in the central party headquarters and that she helps the party organize activities across Taiwan, and that the biggest job for Tsai Bi-ru at this stage is to develop organizations in Taichung, Tsai did not respond.

The Personnel Department of the Taichung City Government pointed out that there is currently no explicit prohibition on civil servants participating in talk shows in their personal capacity during their spare time or leave time, but if they become regular hosts, it may involve matters prohibited by the "Civil Service Act." Tsai has not violated any regulations at this time.
