Initially, the party received a signal of alarm and forced Angel to resign from the party and give up his mandate, but knew nothing, simultaneously respecting the young woman's unwillingness to act further. I've never read anything more credible in my life. --- Damn, Kleinbergs almost crawled from the podium, wishing Angel a speedy recovery and a return to work, said the pitiful farewell words. I say they are not only mentally ill but also extremely dangerous to society. (translated)

You mentioned that @SuomenPoliisi prohibited you from discussing matters related to the investigation. Did the police explain what this prohibition is based on? According to Section 5 of Chapter 11 of the Preliminary Investigation Act, a prohibition must be given in writing and formally communicated. It must specify the subject of the prohibition, the duration of the prohibition, and the potential penalties. The prohibition can only relate to matters that have come to light in the investigation, which do not concern the prohibited person themselves and which they did not previously know. Moreover, their disclosure must additionally be able to complicate the investigation or cause harm or disadvantage to someone. What was such a matter in this case? The investigation concerns a message that has already been published. The suspect's own suspicion of a crime, their own message, and what the police have reported regarding their status concern the suspect themselves. The prohibition does not extend to them, nor does Paragraph 2 of Section 23 of the Publicity Act, which only pertains to confidential information regarding other individuals obtained as parties involved. The police must also clarify the content of the confidentiality obligation (ETL 11:6). Was that done? If the police prohibited the recording of the interrogation or the publication of its content, what is the legal basis for the restriction, and what information does it pertain to? If the suspect cannot record, will the police record it themselves? The interrogation must be recorded when the method of its conduct should be able to be verified later (ETL 9:3). In this matter, the basis is evident. The suspect has the right to remain silent. You can refuse to answer until the binding nature, basis, and scope of the prohibition have been clarified (and, of course, otherwise as well). You do not have to guess the limits of an ambiguous prohibition. The police do not need to allow the publication of all material in advance. But if an authority claims that revealing information is punishable, the basis and subject of the prohibition must be specified. If it was a request, it should not be presented as an obligation, and such a request can always be met with a mocking belly laugh. (translated)

In August 2025, @svtnyheter reported an analysis stating that "around 200 reporters and journalists" had been killed during the war in Gaza up to that point. @sr_ekot has also continuously covered the issue and relayed similar information. The Israeli military (IDF) claims that it has determined that 170 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, who were alleged to be journalists after their deaths, were in fact members of terrorist groups. "After extensive investigations, the IDF can now disclose that 170 Gazans who were killed during the war, and who have been presented as journalists and media workers, were actually acting as terrorists for terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip – primarily Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad," the army states. According to the military, 118 of the journalists were active within Hamas's military branch, 49 within Islamic Jihad, two were members of the People's Resistance Committees, and one belonged to the Mujahideen Brigades. Seventeen of these journalists, also terrorists, are said by the army to have participated in the attacks on Israeli territory on October 7, 2023. Some of the journalists on the IDF's list have also worked for international media, including Reuters, CNN, Australian ABC, BBC, AFP, AP, and Le Monde. The 170 cases have been published by the IDF on a special website. For each person, their name and role as a journalist and terrorist activist are recorded, along with their civilian and military ID numbers. The military states that it publishes "verified evidence, including images and documents produced by the terrorist organizations, some of which have been found on site, which show these terrorists' organizational affiliation and the roles they had within the terrorist organizations." The IDF emphasizes that various international media outlets during the course of the war "have repeatedly, and without presenting verified information, accused Israel and the IDF of intentionally harming journalists." "This despite the fact that terrorist organizations in some cases have themselves presented these individuals as terrorists within their own ranks and even claimed responsibility for them," the IDF claims. "The information now being revealed illustrates the gap between the image presented to the world and the reality on the ground. It provides further and crucial evidence that the IDF does not intentionally and systematically target journalists, but rather terrorist organizations and their terrorists in accordance with international law," adds the military.

The government of ANO, SPD, and Motorists is reaching for two things that I consider fundamental: property rights and energy security. I do not want a state that tells people to whom they should preferentially sell their property. And I definitely do not want to live in a country that, after the experience with Russia, wants to take away gas and oil. (translated)

You are a very contact-oriented pet. However, he is absolutely untrained and doesn't even know how to sit. The lady at the shelter said that he is a dog that you don't really want anything from except for some cuddles. The main problem is that due to how he was kept on a chain, he won't allow a collar to be put on him and he reacts quite strongly. The same goes for touching his paws when he gets the leash tangled. And because of that chain, he has a problem with his neck and sometimes chokes brutally. On Saturday, we will go for a walk just the two of us and we will see. So far, I have very mixed feelings.

"And when I say new, I mean among the residents of (immigrant, mainly Muslim) suburbs. Soral connected far-right youth with young Islamists because they share a common hatred of Jews," According to the renowned journalist Caroline Fourest, who has been monitoring the far right in the country for thirty years, Alain Soral has contributed the most to the rise of new anti-Semitism in France.

The press conference today clarified the suspicions related to parliamentarians' homes. According to Speaker Halla-aho, there is a significant number of cases. It is suspected that residences have been entered in the absence of the representatives. No signs of forced entry have been found, and nothing has been stolen, but traces have been left in the homes. The suspicions involve members of different parties, and the first case may go back as far as a year. There is currently no confirmed information about the perpetrator or motive. The background may involve criminal activity, harassment or stalking targeted at individual politicians, domestic extremist groups, or the actions of a foreign state. Not all reported cases may necessarily be related to each other. Now, it is the police's task to distinguish real intrusions from other observations and investigate possible connections between them. The possibility of a state actor must still be taken seriously. An especially interesting detail is the marks left in the homes. If the intention were solely to obtain information secretly, a successful intrusion would fundamentally be attempted to be concealed. If, instead, traces are deliberately left behind, being noticed may itself be part of the operation. In that case, intelligence is combined with psychological influence. Such methods are known in the history of Russian security services. There have been intrusions into the homes of diplomats, officials, and other individuals deemed interesting, with deliberate traces left behind. This does not prove anything about the perpetrators of these cases. It indicates why the possibility of a foreign state’s action must be thoroughly investigated. If it ultimately turns out to be state influence, the selection of targets would in itself be significant. Parliamentarians decide on Finland's defense policy, NATO cooperation, support for Ukraine, relations with Russia, and numerous other decisions in which foreign states may have strong interests. Coercion does not have to mean an attempt to change one vote in a single ballot. The aim could also be to gather information, map networks and vulnerabilities, or generate uncertainty about whether the consequences of political decisions extend to an individual's own home and loved ones. That is why Finland now needs a more open discussion about the kind of foreign intelligence, influence, and pressure directed at it. Confidential information should not be disclosed, but Finns should have a realistic understanding of the security environment in which we live and whether its change requires anything from decision-makers, companies, or ordinary people. And above all, keep a cool head. If the purpose of such acts turns out to be to generate fear and uncertainty in Finland, that is precisely the effect that should not be allowed. Serious suspicions will be investigated, efforts will be made to identify the perpetrators, and appropriate action will be taken if necessary. Finland's decisions will continue to be made in Finland, without fear and pressure. (translated)

As a newcomer in the parliament, I still have a lot to learn. But the parliamentary math seems simple: Four parties that gather 176 mandates have pointed out Andersson as their prime minister candidate. But they want the side with 173 mandates to solve their problem. Did I hear a red-green mix? (translated)
