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)

Waldemar accused Bielan of trying to reach David Ellison in Washington, whom he described as the new head of the company acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery and TVN. According to the author, the goal was to exert pressure to change the profile of the largest private television in Poland and make it a "second RusRepublic." Waldemar wrote that these efforts were dismissed, and Bielan was said to have fallen into a rage. The author claimed that the new owner declared full editorial independence and opposition to the politicization of the company and discussions with politicians about the content of news. Waldemar accused Bielan of hypocrisy and a desire for party control over the editorial office, arguing that in his view, Bielan only accepted free media when they presented his line. He also criticized his approach to Poland's relations with Washington. The entry ended with the name Grzegorz Grudziński. #WolneMedia #Polska #PiS (translated)

The Institute of Truth wrote that in December 2014, Daniel Obajtek testified as a witness in the trial of Roman and Józef Lis, who were accused of fraudulently obtaining around 200 thousand złoty in EU subsidies. According to the institute, Obajtek denied at that time that he was a silent partner of TT Plast and stated that he owned shares briefly, many years before assuming the office of the mayor of Pcim. He was also said to have testified that as mayor he did not hold any positions in the company nor managed it, and did not collaborate with an employee named Szymon. The institute reminded that in February 2021, "Gazeta Wyborcza" published recordings of conversations from 2009 in which Obajtek allegedly discussed clients, taking over contracts from Elektroplast, and matters concerning TT Plast. The newspaper reported that employees of the company referred to Obajtek as a silent partner. In 2016, Roman Lis filed a report of suspected false testimony and attached recordings. The prosecutor's office refused to initiate an investigation after about a month, finding that there were no signs of a prohibited act. According to the Institute of Truth, Obajtek denied breaking the law, admitted that he had once been a shareholder and knew the owners, but maintained that as mayor he did not work for TT Plast or any other company, and the recordings did not prove a crime. Orlen's office described the publication as a manipulation based on recordings of undetermined integrity. The institute assessed that the testimonies about the lack of professional relations with the company and not managing it did not withstand confrontation with the recordings. #InstytutPrawdy #Obajtek #prawo #korupcja (translated)
