Samuel Pereira wrote to Donald Tusk and Karol Nawrocki that the man did not attack but was followed and then choked due to his "suspicious appearance." He added that the incident occurred a few streets away from the Tribunal, not underneath it. He called Tusk the "guru of 8 stars" and stated that no one matches him in aggression, not even his ministers. https://t.co/bAGXKNzIaO #Polska #polityka #bezpieczeństwo (translated)
The spokesperson for the President of the Republic of Poland, Rafał Leśkiewicz, said on Republic TV that the president had warned the government against unlawful actions towards the Constitutional Tribunal and attempts to forcibly take over this body. He announced that such actions would be met with a decisive reaction from the president, who—as he stated—has an obligation to respond to violations of the law. Leśkiewicz stated that the rule of law means adhering to the Constitution and laws, which the government and the prime minister are obliged to do. He accused the ruling party of looking for legal loopholes and alternative interpretations of regulations, adding that if they do not understand them, they should stop governing. He also said that individuals claiming to be judges of the Constitutional Tribunal are not, because they have not taken an oath before the president. In the case of some individuals, as he pointed out, there is a dispute before the Tribunal between the president and the speaker of the Sejm, arising from Article 189 of the Constitution. Leśkiewicz further claimed that Minister Berek does not meet the formal requirements to hold the position of a judge of the Tribunal, and Prime Minister Donald Tusk knows this or pretends not to know. He emphasized that the Polish people have the right to expect the highest qualifications from the Tribunal's judges. Regarding security and the blocking of illegal content on the internet, Leśkiewicz pointed to law enforcement and special services operating in Poland and to the anti-terrorism law, which he claimed would be in effect from 2024. He noted that the authorities on one hand talk about the need for a law to block illegal content, while on the other hand inform about their blocking. He claimed that the existing regulations already allow for the effective blocking of such content. He added that the government is responsible for ensuring security in Poland. In the matter of ambassadors, Leśkiewicz appealed for a solution to the problem so that Polish ambassadors could represent the country in their posts. He assessed that a conversation with Prime Minister Tusk is needed, not with Minister Sikorski, and said that the appointment of ambassadors in nearly 50 countries depends on the prime minister. #Praworządność #Konstytucja #Polska (translated)
Joanna Pinkwart wrote that the level of public debate has fallen so low that it is difficult to distinguish between trolls and parliamentarians on social media. She cited as examples the statement of the second person in the country about taking care of needs in the bushes, a derogatory term used by the third person in the country, and a candidate from the opposition party for prime minister, who called someone a communist. She also pointed to ministers who allegedly described the head of state in an offensive manner, and an opposition politician who used a contemptuous term toward a journalist. She assessed that the political class is deepening the decline of debate. #debatapubliczna #społeczeństwo #polityka (translated)
Jacek Zarzecki appealed to Waldemar Żurek and Arkadiusz Myrcha to end the prosecutor's actions in Wałbrzych regarding the ZOO in Łączna. He accused the prosecution of incompetence and lack of basic knowledge, and also suggested that it is acting under the influence of organizations presenting themselves as animal defenders. Zarzecki wrote that the facts, evidence, and regulations should determine the matter. He assessed that the stakes are the fate of the animals, which — he claimed — were taken under the pretext of saving them, the life savings of the zoo owners, and the jobs of nearly 30 people. He urged ministers to decide which side the state will take. #Prawo #ZOO #Polska (translated)
Roman Giertych criticized Karol Nawrocki for announcing that Maciej Berek is not a judge. He believed that such a position showed how Nawrocki and his surroundings understood presidential powers: as the right to ultimately approve individuals appointed to positions or taking an oath. Giertych assessed that the consolidation of such an interpretation could lead to an actual dictatorship or absolute monarchy. He argued that the president could then refuse to sign a law despite a veto override or appoint a prime minister chosen by the Sejm. He reminded that according to the Constitution, the president must sign the law within 7 days of the veto override, and Article 154 provides for the appointment of a prime minister elected by the Sejm and ministers at his request. He also pointed out that a two-thirds majority is needed for impeachment. As a hypothetical example, he cited a situation in which, after the victory of the Civic Coalition and its majority, Mateusz Morawiecki would become prime minister, and Nawrocki would later refuse to appoint Donald Tusk chosen by the Sejm. Giertych also claimed that according to such an interpretation, judges, officers, generals, and ambassadors could not be appointed or professorships, citizenship, or honors granted without the president's consent. He defined the dispute surrounding the Constitutional Tribunal as a conflict over whether after the 2027 elections the government will designate the Sejm or Nawrocki. He warned the president that the interpretation he was pushing would mean changing the Constitution without following proper procedures and could lead to a coup against the Constitutional Tribunal and create grounds for undermining the government. He added that who will govern after 2027 will be decided by Poles in the general elections in the fall of next year. According to Giertych, Nawrocki's stance could exacerbate social relations and even lead to violence, for which the president would bear responsibility. #Polska #Konstytucja #Demokracja (translated)

Lemingopedia accused Donald Tusk's government of publicizing an alleged attack on himself and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz to divert attention from budgetary problems.
