Katja Kokot wrote that the right is financing the campaign with party funds and defends its positions with party members, while the Left is said to be using not only party money but also funds from non-governmental organizations, including millions from abroad, which she referred to as "Soros money." She added that the Left is also defending its positions with the support of non-governmental activists and public RTV. She asked whether this is still democracy or a competition of capital and power against common sense. She described the map of the referendum results on the amendment to the law on parliamentary inquiry as a representation of that common sense; according to her explanation, the dark blue areas voted against, while the light blue ones voted in favor. She also mentioned that at her home polling station and the surrounding ones, about 70 percent of votes were in favor of all four questions. In this context, she wondered where Slovenia is headed and whether power would belong to foreign capital, and wrote that the nation would write its own judgment. #demokracija #Slovenija #referendum (translated)

Vinko Vasle wrote that the right should think ahead about the left's responses instead of just defending itself. He argued that the left used the experiences of the political police from Kučan's UDBA to the police that Klakočar allegedly introduced into parliamentary practice, and with political-mafia propaganda attacked something that, in his words, is usual in parliamentary democracies. He labeled the right as being too gentlemanly in its clashes with the left and believed that it should respond to attacks with equal force. #politika #desnica #levica (translated)

Nejc Brence noted that the situation is serious and that in some cases hatred has gotten out of control.

Žiga Turk wrote that, in his opinion, the left expresses itself excessively and uses, as he stated, labels like genocide for a brutal war, extreme right for the right, fascist government for a democratic government, and political police for a parliamentary commission. He added that, in his opinion, such behavior would not be tolerated in the country if there were at least some critical media, but he labeled the media as the main enablers of this rhetoric. #politika #mediji #histerija (translated)

"They will receive a firing squad of soldiers, just as it should be. We will make sure that people can watch it, that it is public, because people need to understand that such actions have serious consequences," Hegseth said in an interview with Jack Posobiec, a right-wing media commentator. #smrtnakazna #pogubljenje #FortHood (translated)

Bojan Požar stated in an interview with Nova24TV that he joined the Institute for the Protection of Victims of the Parliamentary Inquiry 2022-26 as a co-founder because he wanted to more effectively highlight alleged abuses. He mentioned Tamara Vonta, Vesna Vuković, and Tomaž Modic as responsible individuals and said that Robert Golob gave the green light for their actions. He rejected the accusation that the institute is politically or right-leaning. He cited their diversity as evidence that the founders come from different political backgrounds. Požar mentioned that he appeared before the commission as a witness, while the company he leads was being investigated. He claimed that more than 90 percent of the questions during the several-hour hearing did not pertain to the topic of the commission and that he was accused of having published too many articles about Golob as a journalist. According to him, the articles were printed and placed before Vonta. He alleged that Vonta, despite reviewing the bank accounts of him and his company, which the commission allegedly accessed illegally, requested his hearing. Požar described this as a planned attempt at personal, journalistic, and business discreditation. He also mentioned that the institute filed a complaint against Vonta and that he expects sanctions against her and the leadership of the parliamentary inquiry. #žurnalizem #politika #parlament (translated)
