Državni zbor je za nova ustavna sodnika izvolil Nino Betetto in Primoža Gorkiča. Oba sta na tajnem glasovanju dobila 52 glasov, 31 poslancev je bilo proti. Podporo obema so napovedali v koalicijskih Gibanju Svoboda, SD in Levici, javno so njunemu imenovanju nasprotovali v SDS. V oddaji tudi o tem: - Predlog proračuna za prihodnji dve leti je potrjen - kaj poganja rekordne odhodke? - Generalno skupščino Združenih narodov bo danes nagovoril palestinski predsednik Mahmud Abas. - V velenjskem premogovniku našli fosilne ostanke, predvidoma gre za mastodonta.

Državni zbor je sinoči potrdil pokojninsko reformo, ki med drugim viša starostno mejo za upokojitev in odmerni odstotek ter daljša referenčno obdobje za pokojninsko osnovo. Koalicija izpostavlja dostojne pokojnine in vzdržnost pokojninske blagajne, opozicija pa opozarja na slabšanje položaja upokojencev. Del sindikatov in civilnodružbenih organizacij je napovedalo zbiranje podpisov za razpis referenduma. V oddaji tudi o tem: - Washington z vetom na predlog resolucije varnostnega sveta Združenih narodov, ki zahteva takojšnje premirje v Gazi. - Izzivi in priložnosti slovenskega turizma: Kako ustvariti vrhunsko butično ponudbo za petične goste? - Slovenski hokejski as Anže Kopitar po 20-ih letih pri LA Kings napovedal upokojitev.

Polletno poročilo o smernicah zlonamerne programske opreme in ranljivostih kaže na jasno prevlado državnih akterjev, ki kibernetske napade uporabljajo za strateške in geopolitične cilje. Klasične kriminalne združbe pa izkoriščajo različne ranljivosti predvsem za izsiljevalske napade, krajo podatkov in goljufije. Njihove metode so manj prefinjene od kibernetskih operacij, v ozadju katerih so države, so pa bolj množične. Kako odkrivati te napade, jih preiskovati in se zavarovati pred njimi, v tokratnem Studiu ob 17ih. Gostje: Tanja Piškur, Zveza potrošnikov Slovenije; Uroš Svete, direktor vladnega urada za informacijsko varnost; Gorazd Božič, direktor SI-CERTA; David Gracer, kriminalistični inšpektor v Upravi kriminalistične policije na GPU. Avtor oddaje Robert Škrjanc.

SDH je skladno z napovedmi ustanovil obrambni holding. Pod imenom Dovos je bila družba za obrambo, varnost in odpornost danes vpisana v sodni register. Namen družbe je z naložbami v slovenska podjetja podpirati razvoj in trženje izdelkov in storitev s področja obrambe in varnosti. Država je vplačala 100 tisoč evrov ustanovnega kapitala ter še 2,9 milijona kapitalske rezerve, skupaj torej tri milijone evrov. Druge teme: - Dodatno varovanje zračnega prostora Poljske. V soseščini rusko-beloruske vojaške vaje. - Izrael v širitev nezakonitih naselbin. Premier Benjamin Netanjahu: palestinske države ne bo! - 50 let Galerije Božidar Jakac: ob jubileju v Kostanjevici na ogled izbrani umetniški zakladi.

Slovenski državni holding je ustanovil obrambno podjetje Dovos, s katerim želi država z vlaganji v slovenska podjetja krepiti obrambne in varnostne zmogljivosti. Vanj so vložili skupno tri milijone evrov začetnega kapitala, glede na potrebe pa ga bodo dokapitalizirali. Že pred njegovo ustanovitvijo pa je prah dvignila vloga Damirja Črnčeca, ki mu pripada mesto v nadzornem svetu. V oddaji tudi o tem: - Varnostni svet obsodil izraelski napad v Dohi. - Po incidentu z droni na Poljskem sosednji Rusija in Belorusija začenjata vojaške vaje. - Trgovinska zbornica: rast cen hrane pri nas ne odstopa od ostale Evrope.

Poslanci so se po koncu parlamentarnih počitnic prvič sešli na plenarnem zasedanju. Na izredni seji imajo med drugim na mizi predlog novega medijskega zakona, ki ga bodo v tretji obravnavi predvidoma dokončno potrdili. Vse poslanske skupine koalicije so namreč napovedale podporo zakonu, ki so ga pripravili na ministrstvu za kulturo, v postopku sprejemanja pa je že več kot leto dni. V opoziciji medtem medijskemu zakonu nasprotujejo, saj so prepričani, da uvaja cenzuro in omogoča »prijateljsko« deljenje denarja medijem. V oddaji tudi: - Minister Poklukar: notranja revizija ni ugotovila nepravilnosti pri nakupu reševalnih helikopterjev. - Vrstijo se kritike na račun nezadostnega odziva Evropske unije na vojno v Gazi. - Prebivalci Splita zadovoljni zaradi izplutja ladje z 250-imi tonami azbesta iz tamkajšnje ladjedelnice.

Poslanke in poslanci so na zahtevo poslanske skupine SDS na današnji izredni seji opravili splošno razpravo o dveh zakonskih predlogih s področja kmetijstva; o predlogu zakona o kmetijstvu in noveli zakona o kmetijskih zemljiščih. Gre za dva ključna zakona, s katerima se je ministrstvo za kmetijstvo, gozdarstvo in prehrano lotilo celovite prenove zakonodaje prehranskih sistemov. V opozicijskih SDS in NSi so napovedali, da zakonska predloga za zdaj ne bodo podprli. V oddaji tudi: - Koalicija predlaga zvišanje minimalne urne postavke za študentsko delo in razširitev prehranskih bonov. - Ruski predsednik Putin ukrajinskemu kolegu Zelenskemu ponuja srečanje v Moskvi. - 11-a etapa kolesarske dirke po Španiji skrajšana in brez zmagovalca zaradi incidentov med propalestinskim protestom.

Ob današnjem državnem prazniku se spominjamo 17. avgusta 1919, ko so se prekmurski Slovenci po več stoletjih madžarske oblasti spet povezali z matico. Predsednica republike Nataša Pirc Musar je v poslanici poudarila vlogo Prekmurja pri krepitvi slovenske identitete, premier Robert Golob pa je izpostavil med drugim razvojni potencial regije. Združitev prekmurskih Slovencev z matico je pri nas državni praznik, ki ni dela prost, od leta 2006.

Poslanke in poslanci so na izredni seji vnovič potrdili zakone o uporabi konoplje za medicinske in zdravstvene namene, o pomoči pri prostovoljnem končanju življenja in o zaščiti živali. Ta prinaša prepoved kastracije pujskov brez anastezije in prepoved baterijske reje kokoši nesnic od začetka leta 2029.

Državni zbor bo na prvi od dveh za danes predvidenih izrednih sej glasoval o več odmevnih zakonih. Med drugim bo odločal o zakonskih predlogih glede pomoči pri prostovoljnem končanju življenja, regulacije kratkoročnega oddajanja stanovanj in zaščite živali. Na drugi izredni seji pa bo v ospredju usoda predloga za preklic posvetovalnega referenduma o obrambnih izdatkih. Nekaj drugih poudarkov: - Slovenska vlada med drugim za nezaželena razglasila dva izraelska ministra zaradi njunih genocidnih izjav - S predlogom novega evropskega proračuna - sodeč po prvih odzivih - v glavnem zadovoljna samo Evropska komisija - Nogometaši Kopra in Celja uspešni v predkrogih za uvrstitev na evropska tekmovanja

Vlada je potrdila predlog zakona o 25-odstotni obdavčitvi dobičkov od kriptovalut ter predlog spremembe zakona, ki po enaki stopnji obdavčuje dobičke z izvedenimi finančnimi predpisi. S potrjevanjem zakonov je bil danes zaposlen tudi državni zbor. Poslanci so podprli 100 milijonov evrov na leto za gradnjo javnih najemnih stanovanj.
