- I fully uphold the accusations I formulated in the evening hours, when meeting with you, that the manner in which these actions were carried out deprived me of the basic rights that every Polish citizen is entitled to, namely the ability to familiarize myself with the decision concerning the search, the possibility of handing over items if I possessed any, the possibility of selecting individuals I trust to participate in the search proceedings, and finally, the guarantee of carrying out the actions without destroying the building, the ruin of the home where I reside and every Pole resides, as these conditions are guaranteed by the Code of Criminal Procedure - stated Zbigniew Ziobro at a press briefing.
- Unfortunately, these actions were carried out in a bandit-like manner, destroying the door frames and a section of my house's wall, which you can probably easily capture, over the fence. It could have been done normally, by entering through the door, because my friend living nearby had a key, and I am certain that at my request, he would have used that key to facilitate the proceedings - he continued.
- The course of these unfounded actions, the search and securing of items, has only strengthened my conviction that the accusations I made at the outset are accurate, because it was a typical dragnet search. They were looking for everything, just in case they found some documents, items, or anything else that could later be the subject of media games and attacks against me as a politician, and that's what this is about. I have nothing to do with any actions that would justify conducting such proceedings against me - Ziobro emphasized.
07:37
Ziobro:
Documents like United Right's media analysis were secured. This is the best proof of what this is about
- The fact that, for example, those conducting the search secured documents such as the United Right's media analysis, a document I once received in my parliamentary mailbox, as a Member of Parliament, despite my protests that it had nothing to do with the Fund of Justice, such a document was nevertheless secured, is the best proof of what this is about - stated Zbigniew Ziobro at a press briefing.

Kaczyński:
Investigative Committees Show All Their Years of Stories Were Fairy Tales. Their Election Promises Were Also Fairy Tales
– What is happening is, firstly, completely illegal. This is legally, or rather pseudo-legally, decisive, carried out by people who do not have the authority to do so. I'm talking about the situation in the prosecutor's office. The prosecutor's office as a state institution has practically ceased to function, because it must have certain legal foundations. It's not so much undermined as simply rejected. Regardless of anything else, the prosecutor's office and courts must operate based on law. That's the first matter, and secondly, it's not hard to imagine why this was undertaken. Investigative committees show that there was simply nothing, that everything they have been saying for years are fairy tales. And on the other hand, I believe we have managed to show something that is an obvious truth, which is that election promises are also fairy tales – stated Jarosław Kaczyński in an interview with Jacek Prusinowski on Radio Plus.
08:54
Kaczyński:
In better times, a new Constitution will need to be enacted, and if there isn't a 2/3 majority, another majority will have to be chosen.
- Today, we simply have to define [the situation] as a state in which the Constitution has ceased to be in force in Poland, because it is the foundation of the legal system, with all its consequences, including the consequence that in the future, in better times, a new Constitution will need to be enacted, and if there isn't a 2/3 majority, another majority will have to be chosen, simply because a state cannot function without a Constitution - stated Jarosław Kaczyński on Radio Plus.

Kaczyński:
Tusk Qualifies for a Severe Criminal Code Article – 10 Years to Life Imprisonment
- This is an obvious action that corresponds, as they say, to the provisions of Article 127 of the Penal Code concerning the forceful alteration of the state system. In my conviction, [Donald Tusk] clearly qualifies for this, and it is indeed a very severe article, carrying a penalty of 10 years to life imprisonment. [My words] apply to everyone participating in this, but evidently the leader, the person who is inspiring it, is Donald Tusk – stated Jarosław Kaczyński on Radio Plus.
08:57
Kaczyński:
No Talk of Excluding Sovereign Poland
- There is no such topic [of excluding Sovereign Poland from the United Right] - stated Jarosław Kaczyński on Radio Plus.

08:57
Kaczyński:
I Don't Know If I'll Be Elected Party Leader, But I Will Run. To Some Extent, Unity Has Been Preserved Thanks to Me
- I've come to the conclusion that at this moment, the matter of electing a new party leader could be, from the perspective of the unity I've spoken about, let's say problematic, that there is such a risk, so I will run. However, one must agree to run. I think there will be those who sign, because one also needs a sufficient number of signatures to be a candidate. And whether I will be elected - of course, I don't know that, but I will run, because I believe that to some extent, the unity of the party has been preserved thanks to me and the unification of the right has also come about - stated Jarosław Kaczyński on Radio Plus.

I Stand By This New Shape of the Health Contribution
- I appeared together with the Minister of Finance at a press conference, and of course, I stand by this new shape of the health contribution. In reality, I am the one who must push this bill through, because the health contribution is part of the law on benefits financed from public funds. […]. As a constitutional minister, and also as someone who was once on the finance committee and a deputy minister of finance, I want the lowest possible burdens, the lowest possible public dues, but at the same time, I want the highest quality public services, especially healthcare – said Izabela Leszczyna on TVN24.
09:13
- In my opinion, the President was primarily misled. The President talks about some hormonal bomb and some consequences. It's not me who invented the fact that this ulipristal acetate pill, as an active substance, is available in 25 EU countries without a prescription, without any restrictions, only in Ireland for those aged 16 and over – stated Izabela Leszczyna on TVN24.

Kaczyński:
I Will Certainly Not Wage War with President Duda, Regardless of His Intentions
- For even four years. I have adopted a principle that when it comes to the President, I will say nothing. I believe he is a man who won elections twice with the support of our political camp. Regardless of differences, that is the most important thing - stated Jarosław Kaczyński on the program 'Sedno Sprawy' on Radio Plus.
- It is a matter of the President's own decision what he will want politically (...) I will certainly not wage war with President Duda, regardless of what he wants to do, unless, of course, he wants to completely change his political stance, but I do not believe that - he added.

Kaczyński:
We Should Have a Presidential Candidate Capable of Not Just Reaching the Second Round, but Also Having a Strong Chance to Win
- This is actually a question directed at Donald Tusk, because if he wanted to run for president, I don't think anyone in the camp he leads would be able to effectively oppose it. What his plans are, I simply don't know. I believe we should have a candidate who is not only capable of reaching the second round, which would be no trouble, but also has a strong chance of winning in that second round, and this is a matter that requires serious consideration - stated Jarosław Kaczyński on the program "Sedno sprawy" on Radio Plus.

Cichocki:
Search Underway by Services in MP Woś's Hotel Room
- Activities are currently underway by the services in the parliamentary hotel, in the room of MP Michał Woś. This is a search being conducted in the presence of the MP. I also wanted to say that the Marshal was informed about the necessity of carrying out these activities. He gave his consent, because the services have the right to do so within the scope of investigative activities conducted under the supervision of the prosecutor's office, but he set a condition that the MP should be present during this search. This was possible; these activities began this morning and are ongoing, proceeding calmly, and will likely conclude by noon – stated Jacek Cichocki at a press briefing in the Sejm.
12:30
- I think that lawlessness will be punished sooner or later, so wherever lawlessness occurs, those who perpetrate lawlessness must reckon with legal consequences, which will happen sooner or later. I assume, common sense tells me so, that if someone from the services or the prosecutor's office allows themselves such actions against MPs, people who have held very important public functions for years, then I assume they have grounds for it and society will be able to see these grounds, which in their opinion justify it, because if not, I think criminal responsibility is inevitable - stated President Andrzej Duda during a press statement.

I Was Deceived by the Deputy Minister of Justice, Who Failed to Disclose Pegasus Funding from the Justice Fund at the Committee Hearing
- I am surprised that some people are surprised by such a scandalous matter as spending over PLN 280 million without any procedure, and we have information and NIK (Supreme Audit Office) reports on this matter. I, as a Member of Parliament and a member of the finance committee, was also deceived by the Deputy Minister of Justice, who came and said, or rather, *did not* say, that Pegasus would be financed from the FS (Justice Fund). Yes, [I am talking about Michał Woś] and he must answer for all of this - stated Izabela Leszczyna on RMF FM.
18:11
- I have my own take on it, but I'll repeat it once more – I completely don't understand Mr. President [Duda], I don't know why the president isn't listening to experts, specialists, doctors, everyone who says this pill is safe emergency contraception – stated Izabela Leszczyna on RMF FM.

It's enough to talk to parents of children or people with asthma – stated Rafał Trzaskowski during the Warsaw TVP debate.
- These regulations for Warsaw residents will only come into effect after 4 years. All institutions I know of speak about how harmful this is, and we simply want to ensure clean air – he continued.

I am very sorry that Ms. Biejat is talking about this in this way, about this terrible tragedy that has happened in Warsaw - stated Rafał Trzaskowski during the Warsaw TVP debate.
20:40
- It's evident that Tobiasz Bocheński has no idea what's happening in Warsaw, because we've been subsidizing hundreds of police patrols for a long time. We have our own security center with the best monitoring, which is why that murderer was caught. However, Mr. Tobiasz, it was you who failed to prepare the civil defense act - stated Rafał Trzaskowski during a Warsaw TVP debate.

Okęcie + Expanded Modlin Would Be Absolutely Sufficient for Warsaw
- I am, of course, a supporter of Okęcie, because Okęcie is a huge asset for Warsaw; all studies confirm this. However, if we were to build CPK, it would mean the liquidation of Okęcie. Of course, over the last few years, PiS has paid hundreds of millions for people to guard the land. Only now has a real debate on this topic begun. I believe that Okęcie + expanded Modlin would be absolutely sufficient for Warsaw - stated Rafał Trzaskowski during a Warsaw debate on TVP.

Kaczyński Knew About at Least Some of the Allegations the Prosecution is Now Bringing, But Not to Such an Extent
- I think that President Kaczyński knew about at least some of the allegations that are currently the subject of the prosecution's investigation. We know Jarosław Kaczyński, his methods of exercising power, that he always looks for people who inform on each other, tell him about the abominations his associates commit, in order to know what leverage he has on whom. I think Jarosław Kaczyński had this knowledge, but I don't know if it was as far-reaching as the prosecutors suggest today, and I understand that he wanted to have leverage over Ziobro, but not necessarily use it. After all, he was a minister in his government, who was a deputy prime minister, his coalition partner, a member of his club, but I think today he will probably bear political responsibility – Jan Grabiec said on TVN24.
21:20
Grabiec:
There Will Be No General Mobilization
- There will be no general mobilization, there will be no mobilization at all, but rather the Polish army is systematically being expanded, the Territorial Defence Force is being expanded, and a professional civil defence is to be established. These are formations that exist in every country – stated Jan Grabiec on TVN24.

Trzaskowski:
I was equally outraged, there's no place for haters. I will end my work with this gentleman
- I was equally outraged, and there's no place for haters. Of course, I am unable to control what someone writes after working hours, but we have had examples of previous governments which spent hundreds of millions or tens of millions from the Justice Fund, for example, on haters. Therefore, I will end my work with this gentleman because I try to maintain a certain moderation, and there is no place for such individuals - stated Rafał Trzaskowski during the Warsaw debate on TVP.
21:31
Trzaskowski:
Warsaw Must Be Open, Tolerant, and European
- Warsaw must be open and tolerant, because that's how it attracts talent to Poland from all over Europe. Warsaw must be European, because that's how it attracts money for fantastic investments. Warsaw sets trends, because no one has organized a free nursery program, for example, to truly help women and get them back into the labor market – stated Rafał Trzaskowski during a TVP Warsaw debate.
