"We will remain faithful to the principles of humanity, justice, socialism, and freedom in our social democracy. You will not destroy the values that are eternal and indestructible. You can take away our freedom and life, but you cannot take away our honor." Otto Wels, SPD member, 1933 (translated)

Sometimes it's worth knowing such a story to relate it to the tens of millions of victims of communism. What is not a biography, is not a biography at all. (translated)

"In Russia, there is no typical mafia because Russia itself is a criminal organization run from the Kremlin." (translated)

To ensure that the cover topic, party-political, does not overshadow the others, I can particularly recommend the third segment dedicated to the proposal from @partiarazem regarding free meals in schools. There should be more noise about this - in both social and traditional media. (translated)

Today I am talking with Krzysztof Rak about "Hitler and the Poles". We discuss the issue that you cannot understand Nazism without racism, we talk about Generalplan Ost, and we try to understand the sources of the anti-Polonism of the Germans at that time. (translated)

I am far from ignoring economic realities, but being a doctor is not a profession like any other. "The highest ethical command for a doctor is the well-being of the patient. Market mechanisms, social pressures, and administrative requirements do not absolve a doctor from adhering to this principle." (translated)

Yes, Le Pen may still be forced to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet, which would make the end of her campaign very difficult, and she may even still be excluded from the presidential race. She won the battle, but she has not yet won the war. (translated)

Marine Le Pen will be able to run in the presidential elections. However, there is a catch: she previously conditioned her candidacy on not being sentenced to wear an electronic monitoring bracelet, while she is supposed to wear it for a year. She will appear on TV at 8:00 PM. (translated)

This time we had to wait longer, but we have an episode that is three hours long, and in it: 🔴The disastrous balance of Brexit 🔴The dispute over how and to what extent to continue supporting Ukraine 🔴The World Cup and politics (translated)

Fragment of the episode @2lewerece after a series of scandals in Polish hospitals. I confirm: the worst thing that can be done now is to reduce funding for healthcare. Such an action will hit patients, not politicians. (translated)

That being said: politicians do not have to like, value, or befriend each other, but they should cooperate against Russia, which is our common enemy. I do not envy our leaders the partners they have, like Zelensky and his entourage, but people have endured worse things for their homeland. (translated)

"Times" describes how in the post-Brexit reality, the British are selling their dream homes on the Spanish coast and "returning to Luton," while a large number of wealthy Poles are moving in to take their place. This must be the whole "Revolution of Ambition" from @jakub_dymek ;) (translated)

I especially recommend a conversation with Professor Chwedoruk about historical policy, including disputes with 🇺🇦. There is even a proposal to build a monument in front of the Ukrainian embassy to the Ukrainians who saved Poles during the Volhynian-Galician genocide. (translated)

Today, a particularly important and urgent topic. I am asking Prof. Rafał Chwedoruk about why Polish historical policy raises failures in every significant area: German, Jewish, Ukrainian... and how to change this state of affairs. (translated)

Today is the anniversary episode about the elections of June 4, but also about the Round Table, the Balcerowicz Plan, and what David Ost called the "Failure of Solidarity." (translated)

2/ Our reason of state lies in this, to: - support 🇺🇦 in the fight against Russian aggression (but no longer in competition with our farmer or driver) - consistently demand exhumation (it's more important than apologies) - seek real instruments of pressure on 🇺🇦 more: https://t.co/iaITVUN4AI (translated)

You cannot tell Poles for 35 years that they need to apologize for Jedwabne, and then say that they do not need to apologize for Volhynia. One should not signal to the 🇺🇦 side that their tactic is effective; it is enough to persist in it, because there is a division to be played out in Poland. (translated)

We should not lose sight of the fact that our fundamental problem is those bushmen with the atomic bomb. (translated)
