Vláďa Foltán labeled Donald Trump's post about the Nobel Peace Prize as bizarre and wrote that Trump criticized again for not having won the prize. According to Foltán, Trump claimed that he deserved eight Nobel Peace Prizes for resolving eight wars: between Cambodia and Thailand, Kosovo and Serbia, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Rwanda, Pakistan and India, Israel and Iran, Egypt and Ethiopia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and Israel and Hamas. According to Foltán, Trump also stated that he prevented Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, helped bring home all Israeli hostages including the last 28, both living and deceased, and negotiated the release of over 900 political prisoners from Eastern Europe. He also claimed that he brought home 196 hostages without ransom, forced NATO countries to increase defense spending from 2% to 5% of GDP, and removed Nicolás Maduro from Venezuela. The other two wars, in Iran and between Russia and Ukraine, he claimed were still in the planning stages for resolution or victory. Foltán stated that Trump questioned the merits of the woman in the photo he shared in his post and criticized the Nobel Prize as well as Norway. According to him, Trump claimed that the prize should have been awarded to the United States and labeled its awarding as a discredit to the accolade. #Trump #NobelovaCenaMíru #Politika (translated)

If those panel buildings weren't here, we would be happier. We have been living with them since 2010. In the summer, there is a party in the street every day, they are just noisy. It has quite ruined our community's reputation. New people will not move in here, our school is 90 percent Roma, which is going downhill. "It has quite ruined our community's reputation.

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)

Rok Ravnikar accused RTV Slovenia of not fulfilling its mission of balanced reporting and presenting different views. He wrote that more than which side it supports, he is concerned about the loss of space for the exchange of opinions and confrontation in a democratic republic. He compared two television debates. Last November, during the referendum on euthanasia, he participated in a debate where, according to him, the time was evenly divided between supporters and opponents. There were supposed to be considerably more opponents, so each was given about 45 seconds, while supporters had two minutes each. In a debate about one of the four current referendums, they announced that each participant would get 40 seconds. Ravnikar asked why RTV Slovenia changed the criteria for time distribution, as the same time for each side and the same time for each speaker with a different number of participants would mean a different ratio between the sides. He added that as an active citizen, he expects a response from the journalistic, media, and legal professions. In this context, he cited the stance of Levitsky and Ziblatt from the book *How Democracies Die?*, that changing the rules to one's own benefit and to the detriment of opponents is characteristic of authoritarian regimes. #mediji #demokracija #poročašnje (translated)

More than 2000 words blame how the public @rtvslo does not fulfill its mission of balanced reporting and presenting different views. You cannot make a bigger anti-ad. And it is the least important which side I support - what worries and saddens me the most is that as a democratic republic we are losing the space for exchange and confrontation. Why do you think of the "others" as so stupid? When did the attitude towards the "others" change so much? Yes, I ask you, who prepare the program. I understand, you have your own agenda and your own views, but in a democratic community mutual respect is a fundamental value. Twenty years ago, I worked as a PR person in politics. Even then, we knew who belonged where and which uncle from the background had more influence. But I felt that those of us on the ground, who were in direct contact – journalists, editors, and PR people – respected each other on a professional level. When I participated in a debate last November about the referendum on euthanasia, the time was evenly divided between the "FOR" side and the "AGAINST" side. There were significantly more opponents at that time, so each of us got, if I remember correctly, 45 seconds. Most barely managed to present one thought. On the other side, the supporters had two minutes. There were also some pretty bizarre embarrassments, as some could not come up with enough arguments for a two-minute speech. Last night, I heard an introductory announcement at a debate about one of the four current referendums that each speaker would get 40 seconds. Seriously? So back then equal time for both sides, now equal time for each speaker. These are different criteria, which with a different number of participants also mean a different distribution of time between both sides. Why did you change the criterion? I am just an active citizen, I expect that the journalistic, media, and legal professions will provide their criticism and assessment. "Changing the rules to your advantage and adjusting the conditions to the detriment of opponents is one of the basic characteristics of authoritarian powers."

Bunul Dumnezeu să-l întărească pe Călin Georgescu, ca să treacă peste această situație și să iasă cu viață de acolo. Sistemul nu mai are nicio soluție pentru a șterge imaginea lui Călin Georgescu din mentalul colectiv. Sunt disperați, pur și simplu, și recurg la toate măsurile posibile. De aceea au inventat această poveste și au încercat să o traducă în diferite moduri, să o interpreteze după bunul plac, doar ca să reușească să-l agațe cumva și să spună: „Uite, justiția își face datoria.” Asta pentru că nu aveau absolut nicio dovadă și nu sunt capabili să ofere un raport despre anularea alegerilor. Ei știu că au comis cea mai mare crimă împotriva democrației din țara asta și de aceea vin cu aceste măsuri de origine bolșevică. Istoria se repetă. Am mai avut în țară acest scenariu când s-a instaurat regimul comunist. În 1989, s-a repetat scenariul, când anumite forțe externe au vrut să pună mâna pe România. Atunci a fost un alt moment greu pentru acest popor. Iar acum, când trebuia să vină schimbarea, sistemul revine cu aceleași tactici. Unii aplaudă din plin toată această uriașă măgărie. Aplaudă și râd într-un stil demonic, urlă de bucurie, dar uită un lucru: sistemul uneori își devorează propriii copii. Asta nu înțeleg acești demenți. Mâine s-ar putea să aibă aceeași soartă și să se întrebe: „Oare de ce? Cu ce am greșit?” Așa e când nu gândești și ai o minte închisă, dar te crezi deștept pentru că ești om cu diplomă, cu carte, și crezi că știi ce e bine. La asta s-a ajuns, pentru că nu mai au cum să acopere mizeria pe care au făcut-o în decembrie 2024. Pur și simplu, trebuie să-l elimine cu totul pe Călin Georgescu din viața românilor. Simpatia poporului față de el este mult prea mare. Nu s-a mai întâlnit așa ceva după 1989 și, pentru ei, reprezintă un pericol la viitoarele alegeri și pentru orice se mișcă în țara asta. Dar sunt momente grele. Unii probabil nu o să-și mai găsească vorbele pentru a se exprima. Așa se întâmplă când o țară este capturată de un sistem mafiot. Și știm cu toții foarte bine de unde este controlat și pentru cine fac toate aceste jocuri: doar pentru a le oferi unora liniștea necesară în cadrul Uniunii. Ne așteaptă vremuri din ce în ce mai grele. Important este să ne păstrăm credința în Bunul Dumnezeu și luciditatea și să învățăm din trecut. După cum am spus, aceste lucruri s-au mai întâmplat. Iar cei care au rezistat regimului comunist ne-au învățat cum să rezistăm și noi și să depășim momentele grele care pun la încercare națiunea și poporul român.
