Zoran Stevanović And The Truthers

No, this is not a blog post about Zoran Stevanović and his high school rock band. Primarily because there’s no record of Zoran Stevanović ever being a part of, let alone leading a high school rock band. But also because, in the unlikely event of Zoran Stevanović leading a band in high school (or at least being a part of one), rock is not exactly the genre one would put him in.

Zoran Stevanovič and Resnica were in the news a lot lately. He is in way over his head, Boris Mijić is still around and Katja Kokot is the only one having fun. Also in the picture are Aleksander Štorek and Nedeljko Todorović. — *(With apologies to The High School Reunion. I hear they’re great, book them here*)

If Stevo had a band, it would be a cheap pop wall-of-sound act. In mono. Much like his party. And like Phil Spector, wall-of-sound inventor and music industry’s biggest asshole by a country mile, Stevo is cranking up the volume and compression. All in an attempt to hide the fact that Resnica are a bunch of lying insignificunts who took the most toxic and corrupt traits in Muddy Hollows politics and ran with it. Unsurprisingly, it turns out they suck at that, too.

President Pirc Musar And Her Slow Moving (Communications) Car Crash

Almost two weeks ago, president Nataša Pirc Musar was involved in a car crash while travelling in a motorcade. She suffered a broken collarbone while one of the other two passengers suffered a more serious injury.

President Nataša Pirc Musar was injured in a car crash two weeks ago. Then a communications car crash followed which made things even worse. — *Presidential palace. The car in front is not part of president Pirc Musar’s motorcade (photo by pengovsky)*

The driver/bodyguard in the president’s van was also slightly injured and apparently there was a non-insignificant amount of material damage. Also not-insignificantly damaged was the notion of at least semi-competent official communication at the highest levels of the state. And much of the blame lies with the president herself.

Constitutional Court OKs Referendum On Logar And Vrtovec Omnibus Law

Technically, the entire Muddy Hollows political apparatus is on vacation for at least ten more days. But on Monday the Constitutional Court put in a little overtime and brought some finding out to Jernej Vrtovec and Anže Logar fucking around back in May. That is to say, despite some provisions that affect the budget, the court allowed a referendum on the omnibus law on emergency development measures.

Main entrance to the Constitutional Court. The referendum ruling, stemming from the hubris of Jernej Vrtovec and Anže Logar could cost the coalition of Janez Janša dearly. — *Constitutional Court, where the magic happened (photo by yours truly)*

The law was passed even before Janez Janša had his majority in the parliament and was seen as an early test of the would-be coalition. And yet, the Glorious Leader and his finance minister Andrej Šircelj are probably quite happy it will (in all likelihood) get shot down in a mid-November referendum. Though each of them for different reasons. Allow pengovsky to explain.
