David Rangl published a political satire in the style of "Hey people," in which he mocked the reactions to the Senate elections. Its fictional narrator claimed that his party objectively won the elections, even though it did not gain any senators according to the text. He attributed the result to voters, the media, and artists, referencing Patrik Nacher and Klempíř. In a passage about Cheb, Rangl wrote that Sandra Tsoukernik received 27 percent in the first round and almost 29 percent in the second, while Plevný had 71 percent according to the text. The satirical narrator emphasized the alleged growth of support and recalled seven concerts by Michal David. Rangl also parodied the narrator's remarks about Karviná and Orlová, Karel's trip to India, where he was supposed to have 25 meetings, and the meeting with Zelensky in Brussels. He labeled the Senate as unnecessary and wrote that the party would first win it, then abolish it, and possibly re-establish it. In conclusion, he stated that it was political satire and that readers should wait for the real "Hey people." #volby #politika #českárepublika (translated)

After the Torcida's cortege where slogans like 'crush, crush, crush the Jews', 'Auschwitz, Auschwitz', 'rise Adolf' and 'let's go, let's go Ustashas' were chanted, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister Davor Božinović will: a) say that the atmosphere was spectacular? b) wonder as if surprised by where Ustashism and fascism suddenly appeared on the streets? c) warn Prime Minister Plenković that these are the consequences of his double meanings? d) admit that all the black-shirt gatherings and the chanting of 'for the homeland ready', including those in concert halls and stadiums which the HDZ government has fervently supported in the past year and a half, served to promote the ideology of Ante Pavelić and Adolf Hitler? e) let the institutions do their job and allow the boys in black to cry in court that they didn't know whom they were invoking and what their chanting means? f) invite Josip Dabro to sing at the next HDZ conference and return to the government? g) at an extraordinary press conference, say that the left opposition wants to bring back communism and Yugoslavia? What do you think?" Orešković asked. #torcida #antisemitizam #ustaštvo (translated)
