Niestety, Magda Biejat tylko w 7. miejscu w wyborach prezydenckich, mając 4,23% głosu—mniej niż Grigorij Braun. A dwie główne kandydaty jakoś mają >2% różnicy…

Pisiory nie mogą wygrać trzeci raz pod rząd. Wszyscy, głosować na Trzaska!! 🇵🇱🧡

Polacy, głosować na Magdę Biejat! 💚

Nie ma że „nie wygra, lepiej prosto na Trzaska”. Co z tego? To nie Stany; lepsze zło tracenie głosów nie jest takim problemem (druga runda…). KAŻDEN głos się liczy, i głos na nią zmocnia lewicę i pokazuje dwóm partią że nie są sami!

Congratulations, Your Holiness!

Robert Prevost would not have been my first choice, but I am satisfied with his election nonetheless. Let us all wish good luck to Leo XIV, the first American to lead the Church! 🇻🇦

BREAKING NEWS: The 267th Pope of the Roman Catholic Church has just been elected on the fourth ballot! We don't know yet who it is, but we shall find out shortly.

Personally, I predict Luis Antonio Tagle…

Newfoundland and Labrador has closed its polls in the federal election. A Liberal majority government is expected, but the Tories are expected to gain seats too. The NDP is expected to lose official status.

Good luck, Canada!

Canadians, I know PM Carney's promises may be tempting and the polls may be in his favour, but make the right choice this federal election and prevent a Liberal majority by voting NDP! Do not forget what is right! 🧡🌹🇨🇦

There is no Pope. After 12 years in office, the Vatican has confirmed Francis' passing this Easter Monday morning at age 88.

I may not be the most religious person, but may this historic moral leader and cultural icon RIP 🇻🇦

Congratulations to @mark-carney.bsky.social on winning the LPC leadership election! I'm not Canadian, hardly know any of the candidates, and am not even a Liberal supporter, but I wish Canada's next PM good luck with keeping both Trump and the Tories at bay…
