Karba66 wrote to Markus Söder that political leaders had portrayed children during a pandemic as a potential danger to their grandparents. Moreover, they had made children feel guilt and fear by asking whether they wanted their grandmother to die. This was not normal. #Pandemie #Kinder #Gesundheit (translated)

Behind every Russian oligarch, as well as every corrupt Middle Eastern or African oligarch, stands an entire army of Western financial, legal, and PR service providers who are more than willing to accept money to clean up their reputations and portray them as normal. "An entire army of Western financial, legal, and PR service providers stands behind every Russian oligarch, as well as every corrupt Middle Eastern or African oligarch, who are happy to accept money to clean up their reputations and make them appear normal," commented the case by Vladimir Milov, former deputy minister of energy and a vocal critic of the Russian government. #RomanAbramovics #Deloitte #adócsalás (translated)

Tino explained that writing his book, "100 Tips for Successful Investing," had been one of the most difficult trials of his life. For nearly ten months, his perfectionism had, according to him, caused him doubts, frustrations, short nights, and sometimes tears. He added that the project had also weighed on his health and his private and family life. His partner, with whom he had shared his life for nearly fifteen years, had to accept his absences and the fact that writing sometimes took precedence over their life together, he wrote. Since finishing the book, he had been trying to reconnect with her over the moments that were set aside, while acknowledging that lost time could not really be made up. As the book was meeting with greater success than he had expected, Tino wanted to pay tribute to his partner, believing that without her support, the work probably would not have come to fruition. #Écriture #Amour #Sacrifice (translated)

Saara Huhtasaari wrote that Sanna Marin had been in Italy promoting her book and told Corriere della Sera that she would likely not run for office unless Russia attacked Finland. In that case, according to Huhtasaari, Marin would have said she was available. Huhtasaari interpreted the statement as positioning herself rather than expressing a willingness to be a victim. According to her, Marin implied that conventional political work did not match her capabilities and that only a crisis threatening Finland's existence would be a sufficiently significant task. Huhtasaari compared this to the scale of historical leaders such as Kekkonen, Winston Churchill, Nelson Mandela, Lee Kuan Yew, and George Washington, using the metaphor of the "Napoleon syndrome" to describe the phenomenon. She specified that she did not mean it as a diagnosis. Huhtasaari also criticized the contradiction between Marin's book discussing hope and the self-image conveyed in the interview. She argued that the role of politics was to build structures that functioned without a single politician. As examples of such builders, she mentioned Lee Kuan Yew, who influenced Singapore's development, and Mart Laar, who made economic and institutional decisions in post-independence Estonia. Huhtasaari believed that there had not been similar builders in Finland for decades and that Marin did not belong to their ranks. According to Huhtasaari, statesmen did not announce in advance when they would return to politics, but either did their job or stepped aside. She criticized Marin for traveling to present her book, which discussed decisions made behind closed doors, and for associating a potential return with Russia's attack. Huhtasaari described this as a fantasy of seeing herself as a historical exception. #SannaMarin #Politiikka #Historia (translated)

I make a special appeal to PNL and UDMR to show political maturity, to contribute to the building of a transparent majority, if the PSD wishes to participate in the government or in this common endeavor. If we do not find ourselves in this project for the economy that we briefly announced and do not have a clear assumption from the other parties, PSD will not hesitate to say 'no' to this political effort. Normally, PSD should have received the mandate to form a majority that would invest a government and we could have built a majority, if you will, around the idea of change, because 80% of Romanians are asking us for this change, and the parliamentarians, after all, cannot ignore this request. However, we have a designation in the person of Mr. Niculescu. Therefore, my appeal is directed at the parties. To leave aside political pride, to think more about people, especially about the people who are watching us and expecting solutions from us. The real confrontation should not be on the political front between parties during this period," declared Sorin Grindeanu. #Guvernare #LucaNiculescu #FormaGuvernului (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)

Julian Adrat criticized that Markus Söder had claimed in the program "Miosga" without contest that the AfD was hostile to the disabled and "brutally right" in Bavaria. Miosga referred to Adrat in a derogatory manner. Adrat countered Söder's statement with a series of his own examples, which he labeled as "not normal." These included the blowing up of nuclear power plants, prison sentences for internet memes, and centuries of debt approved by a dismissed parliament. He also mentioned transforming Christmas markets into fortresses, citizen income payments to foreigners, the handling of billions for masks, the purchase of babies, and calls for rocket attacks on Moscow. As further examples, Adrat cited the expansion of wind and solar plants, bike paths in Peru, the training of trans-rickshaw drivers in India, and 130,000 foreigners who roamed freely despite arrest warrants. In conclusion, he criticized that citizens had to finance the programs under threat of imprisonment. #Politik #AfD #Gesellschaft (translated)

Vinicius Carrion wrote that he considered it a humiliation for ministers to overturn each other's decisions and said he had the impression that this usually happened to benefit the PT.

Acosti argued that Călin Georgescu's opponents were afraid of him because, in his opinion, they could not conceive that someone could act out of conviction and patriotism, without seeking a position or reward. He stated that Georgescu selflessly loved his country and possessed qualities such as stature, eloquence, and soul. The author accused Georgescu's critics of confusing position and wealth with value and respect, mentioning cars like the BMW X6 and Range Rover. He argued that dignity and character could not be obtained through positions, company cars, or image campaigns, and that power belonged to the Romanian people. Acosti further stated that the opponents' fear stemmed from the comparison with Georgescu, whom he described as a respected man without invoking his position. In his view, his presence made the imperfections of the critics more visible, and they were afraid of what they lacked. #România #Patriotism #Dreptate (translated)
