By the way, USA Today has spent the last few weeks scrubbing their archives, specifically deleting old articles regarding that prostitution and sexual assault case involving the Department of Social Services Osijek.

Just a quick reminder for everyone: make sure you archive everything. Use the Wayback Machine.

We used to joke about how this administration compares to Vučić’s, but even they didn't try to bury a recent pedophilia scandal like this. Have we really become such a massive criminal circus?

That’s just how they operate at the top of the Republican Party. That's the standard for their lawmakers—the supposed "sacred pillars" of our nation and those unparalleled patriots...

An assistant secretary for the Republican Party was paying membership fees for 14 party members using funds straight from the Island City budget.


Hard to know where to even start.☕

So incredibly sexy... I honestly think we should just cut out all the middlemen, the wholesalers, and the brokers entirely. Why not just funnel the taxpayer money straight into the party coffers? Thank God someone finally had the bright idea... clean accounts, long-lasting power...

I don't know how things are playing out in other states, but here in my neck of the woods, the Republican Party has cooked up about 20 fake Facebook profiles. They spend all day acting like obsessed fanboys, praising the "brilliance" and "wisdom" of the current administration and their local candidates, while simultaneously tearing down and insulting anyone else.
Some guy using one of those accounts—someone who clearly thinks they’re high-class and sophisticated—decided to reply to my comment about these bot accounts by being an absolute lowlife. He didn't just insult me; he actually brought up my late father, who passed away 17 years ago.
Just when you think people have finally hit rock bottom, you realize they’re actually busy digging a hole to bury you in.😵

Let me guess—Plenković hasn't heard a word about it, knows absolutely nothing, and certainly didn't have the time to read up on it because he was far too busy with other matters of extreme importance.

Đakić is pulling in about $6,300 a month.
I mean, honestly, at least it shows this country isn't completely falling apart yet.

Doctorates in Osijek ☕

Vice Mihanović, the Republican candidate for Mayor of Split, might have one thing right: his doctoral thesis, titled "economic impact of maritime transport and shipping on economic development," which he defended back in 2018 at the Osijek College of Economics, is truly one of a kind globally—mostly because on page 71, he claims to have discovered "Wolfscale." He refers to it as a table for tanker freight rates.
****
While this isn't exactly our field since we deal with shipbuilding rather than shipping, I assume you’re referring to the table published annually by the Worldscale Association in London and NY. It essentially represents the average price for average tanker space over an average 15,000-mile route, used to calculate the specific prices negotiated between shippers and owners—otherwise known as the "Worldscale Freight rate."
***
We reached out to several experts on the subject, and nobody has ever heard of "Wolfscale." They have, however, heard of Worldscale. We even asked Mihanović whether "Wolfscale" was his own groundbreaking scientific discovery or if he perhaps miscopied Mitrović. As of this moment, he hasn't responded.
***
Back in mid-March, Index published a report revealing that Mihanović had been lifting sentences and entire paragraphs from other sources without any attribution. Since nothing was marked as a quote, I guess we can't really call it an oversight or a simple mistake; it looks more like a deliberate attempt to pass off someone else's definitions, opinions, and conclusions as his own.

How on earth is it possible that out of every single restaurateur in Chicago, it’s Ana Lisak (Republican Party) who ends up being the ringleader for this "corona" party? What a massive coincidence...

Absolutely disgusting. Honestly, how do they even show their faces? It’s getting worse by the second right under our feet.

Another doctorate out of Osijek ☕

A Republican wrote a scientific paper in Osijek, though he seems to have absolutely no clue who the thinker he’s citing actually is.

Ante Baran, a Republican and the Mayor of the Municipality of Lećevica—who happens to be running for reelection—

Read this on the Telegram portal. Vučković is out here playing the Rimac role. It’s the classic Republican playbook: hire your inner circle at the ministry, then just cruise right through. Hey, Coca-Cola, you seeing this? It reminds me why Holy left in the first place. She walked because she had standards. These people don't even have standards; they just have criminal IDs.

🤣

It’s not even surprising since the guy's a total moron, they just pushed him through anyway.

...we asked if he knew who Carl Schmitt was.

No. Karl Schmitt?
Yeah.

Never, never heard of him. Is he a physical person? Or... or...
Yeah.

Karl Schmitt? No, no, no, never, never in my life.
You haven't heard of him?

Man, never, never.
Then how are you mentioning him in the introduction of your paper?

How am I...?
You mention him as a modern political theorist.

Sir, we're ending this conversation now.


That moment when you realize someone is just incredibly dense. 🤣

Man, if only Rimčev would remember how things used to be...

The same thing was happening over at SOA while that future six-time election winner—the guy who basically tore the party apart—was running the show.

Back when Tomislav Karamarko was heading up SOA, that intelligence agency was essentially a hiring ground where people got jobs based on whatever whim the director had, rather than any actual criteria. You’d have people getting hired for a few days just to be shuffled off into other state agencies—Customs being the big one—using SOA as a loophole to dodge public job postings and slide straight into the civil service. There were even cases where candidates actually brought in their political party membership cards as proof that they *weren't* politically active.

The Evening News.

And meanwhile, Coca-Cola is still rambling on about some "illegal candidacy."

At this point, I'm not even disgusted by the Republicans anymore—it's more about the whole culture of voting for the Republican Party in general.

What absolute scum

Where on earth do these people get the audacity to cross borders into another country just to dictate how everyone else should live their lives?
The Royalists were completely exposed when dealing with those folks from Kradezej.
It’s all just a play for power, really. Of course, there will always be a subset of people who find this acceptable, and frankly, they are just as much of a disgrace as the rest.

When a reporter asks if he’s voting for Škoro in the runoff, Kapulica just starts dodging the question. Total nonsense. 🙂
