I tell motorists to start discussing it in the Chamber as soon as possible and to achieve the adoption of the law and the exemption of the public from fees as soon as possible,“ said Šťastný, adding that the change could occur as early as next year. “I assume that public service media perceive that the law is on the table. They should prepare for it, set up financing, and take it into account,” said Šťastný. #KoncesionářskéPoplatky #MédiaVeřejnéSlužby #Legislativa (translated)

Zdeněk Šarapatka thanked his supporters and stated that their support helped him get back on his feet after the results of the Senate elections. According to him, the campaign in Prague 5 and 13 was not a fair competition about topics, but a contest over billboards. He claimed that one of the candidates was running a concurrent campaign for the Senate and the Prague City Hall, transferring funds between them, including money from a company building houses. According to Šarapatka, the state supervision office did not respond to the violations of the rules. The candidate, he claimed, received 14,606 votes out of a total of 45,782. Šarapatka also criticized the ODS, which, according to him, despite an agreement with his TOP 09, fielded its own candidate, thereby reducing the chances of defeating Václav Láska. He stated that their candidate hardly presented political positions during public appearances and instead relied on a romanticized story about the students' relationship with the school principal. He added that the students of the candidate's school, according to Šarapatka, got involved in the campaign, even though the principal was balancing on the edge of the education law. The candidate received 12,162 votes out of 45,782. As an earlier example of the split with ODS, Šarapatka mentioned its member Benda, who, according to him, appointed Matocha and Xaver Veselý to the Czech Television Council. He claimed that part of ODS contributed to his failure in the election despite the party agreements at that time. He also recalled that six years ago, at ODS's request, he supported its candidate in the second round of the Senate elections in Mělník, whom he claimed he had not seen publicly appear in the Senate since then. Šarapatka stated that he would not make the same mistake again. According to him, the result meant that there would be no amendment to the lustration law nor security clearances for government members and their deputies, and that there would be no qualified fight for a free Czech Radio and Czech Television. At the same time, he urged his supporters to keep going. #politika #volby #Senát (translated)

In the post-election debate, the future of Prime Minister Andrej Babiš, the exhaustion of the Pirate Party, and the perception of Motorists as new political upstarts were discussed, with moderator Pavel Štrunc emphasizing that the post-election struggle for power is just beginning. #volby2026 #AndrejBabiš #Českápolitika (translated)

Poland is at a crossroads where the increasing demand for stability is balanced with concerns about war beyond its eastern border, and voters are beginning to shift their expectations of politics towards protecting achieved successes instead of further rapid growth. #Polsko #politika #stabilita (translated)

Jiří Hrebenar stated that Martin Král won one of the seven mandates in the municipal council in Černouček, receiving 104 candidate votes. According to him, he did not run for Motorists for themselves, but as an independent candidate on the local candidate list of the Association of Independent Candidates ČERNOUČEK 2026. Hrebenar reminded that Král is a member of Motorists for themselves, and the leadership of the party, led by Petr Macinka, Boris Šťastný, and Oto Klempíř, presented his election as a political success. However, according to Hrebenar, Motorists gained their member in the council, not a victory for their party candidate list. In response to Klempíř's remark that the residents of Černouček elected a king after the president, Hrebenar wrote that Petr Pavel still has permanent residence in the village, and his presidential mandate continues. According to him, the newly established council will decide on the mayor. The Association of Independent Candidates ČERNOUČEK 2026 gained four out of seven mandates, while the Černouček for themselves grouping got the remaining three. Hrebenar added that no coronation has taken place in the village yet. #Černouček #volby #politika (translated)

No president in the history of the United States has so fervently and shamelessly sided with an imperial dictator like Putin, nor has attacked a democratic leader like Zelensky so fiercely. Reagan would be outraged. The recent behavior and words of Trump were sharply commented on by former U.S. ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul. #Trump #Putin #McFaul (translated)

Pan Diabeł Stockton wrote that during the election campaign, Karol Nawrocki explained the matter of taking over the apartment as selfless help for a family friend, Jerzy Żywicki, whom he portrayed as a hero of the Gdańsk Solidarity opposition. The author announced that he would return to the matter of the apartment takeover another time, and then asked Marta Nawrocka whether, by signing the lifelong care agreement in exchange for the apartment, she was aware of Żywicki's past. He claimed that Żywicki was not a hero of the Tri-City Solidarity but a sex offender and described an incident in which he allegedly attacked a woman walking with a child in the park, tried to rape her, threatened her with death, and masturbated in front of her. #Polityka #Solidarność #Wybory (translated)

Peťulína Markvartová described the election results as a "slap in the face" at the most opportune moment, as she believed the most important elections were three years away. She called for a return to the program and for a decisive approach towards the opposition, which she claimed they had 108 votes for. She demanded the immediate proposal to abolish fees for Czech Television and Czech Radio, as well as the FARA law, and called for firm voting without unnecessary debates. She also criticized previous concessions in the election of members of the Czech Television Council, which she believed were related to the false recording of Wolffner. She warned that if the government continued to hesitate and try to appear decent, it would disappoint its voters, and in three years, the government would be run by the Austrian party. She labeled the SPD and Motorists as written off. #volby #politika #opozice (translated)

The author stated that he previously assumed that Russia would also partially concede in negotiations with the United States regarding Ukraine so that the West would not look bad. Now, according to him, the situation rather seemed to indicate that Donald Trump offered Vladimir Putin cheap oil and a free hand regarding Ukraine and Europe. The post ended with a question of where something is and included a link. https://t.co/i513EBg7ax #Ukrajina #Rusko #politika #US #RU #UA #EU (translated)

Venek wrote that Patec announced Project 30, a year-long expedition lasting 365 days, leading up to his thirtieth birthday. According to the author, Patec and his team were to visit inaccessible places around the world and take on difficult challenges, facing significant mental and physical burdens that sometimes led participants to consider dropping out.

He also described the project as an opportunity for introspection and pushing personal boundaries. He added that Patec prepared an app and competitions that would allow the community to co-create the endeavor. #Projekt30 #Wyprawy #EkstremalneDoświadczenia (translated)
