Constitutional Tribunal on the System of Assigning Cases to Judges

At 12:00 PM, the Constitutional Tribunal will consider a case concerning the system of assigning cases to judges, specifically the ordinance issued by Minister of Justice Waldemar Żurek on this matter. President Karol Nawrocki requested the Constitutional Tribunal to examine the compliance of the aforementioned ordinance with the Constitution. In turn, the National Council of the Judiciary requested a finding of non-compliance of the ordinance with the Constitution.

- This dominance on the right and the domination of this right-wing side of the political scene is the reason for such mass participation of PiS politicians, and surely PiS greatly fears Konfederacja, but it also fears Mr. Grzegorz Braun's party, and it also seems to me that the strategy that for many years was pursued by Chairman Kaczyński, that nothing to the right of PiS can emerge, is no longer working - said Anna Bryłka in the "Morning Ring" of Super Express.

- This entire construct on the Polish political scene looks completely different. Not only is Konfederacja to the right of PiS, but Mr. Grzegorz Braun's party is even further to the right of Konfederacja, and PiS is simply losing its monopoly on the right side of the political scene - the Konfederacja MEP continued.

- We did not start this war with PiS, PiS started this war with Konfederacja, that is the first thing. The second thing is that PiS is making the same mistake it made in 2023. Truly, in the final weeks of the 2023 election campaign, a massive attack on Konfederacja began, and we then achieved a result below our expectations - Anna Bryłka said on Super Express's "Morning Ring".

-  PiS is making exactly the same mistake, at the same time, perhaps not at the same time, because we are 2 years before the elections, but it is making the same mistakes that were made in the 2023 election campaign, i.e., attacking Konfederacja, and with much smaller parties now making up the ruling coalition - Anna Bryłka continued.

- There are statements that are unwise, bad, and stupid. And the worst thing is when all these statements or all these characteristics combine into one statement - and that was the case with President Nawrocki's statement. It was idiotic, bad, and stupid - said Cezary Tomczyk in "Rozmowa Piaseckiego" on TVN24, when asked about the president's speech yesterday at Piłsudski Square, when he said that "he will never allow us to become the peacock and parrot of nations again."

We quoted the President of the Republic of Poland's words in more detail here.

- At a time when Poland knows exactly what is happening in the East, when there is a war raging beyond our eastern border, the President of the Republic, who swore to defend precisely the Republic and its sovereignty, is once again talking about the West - he pointed out.

- President Karol Nawrocki was [at the Independence March], he took all the political air, so it's a real problem for Chairman Jarosław Kaczyński that today he is not a reference point for either the government or the media. President Nawrocki is that reference point, and Chairman Kaczyński's presence at the Independence March passed entirely unnoticed. Moreover, he was completely unbelievable in this, because he didn't used to go to these marches - stated Marcin Mastalerek on RMF FM.

- Donald Tusk's consistent policy has led to him simply politically consuming the appetizers. He owes this solely to himself - stated Marcin Mastalerek on RMF FM.

- Of course, this is nonsense, largely propagated by politicians of the ruling coalition who need to announce some successes, and there are no real successes. Yesterday, statements emerged that Poland has been exempted from the Migration Pact; no, Poland has not been exempted from the Migration Pact. Has Poland been exempted from the solidarity mechanism? No, Poland has not been exempted from the solidarity mechanism. The point is that yesterday the European Commission issued a communication, and today Commissioner Brunner will be presenting this annual report concerning the solidarity pool - said Anna Bryłka in "Poranny Ring" on Super Express.

- I think the ruling camp will either go down the path of consolidation, as it has been doing so far, or it will go down the path of creating some new party that will pretend to be an anti-establishment party against the mainstream, in order to grab the votes that Grzegorz Braun or Konfederacja are currently taking - stated Marcin Mastalerek on RMF FM.

- I had the pleasure of being with the Prime Minister and the President then, from September 9th to 10th, when there was the drone provocation, and it seemed to me that the drones flew in from the East. And the Border Defence Movement, which was also defended by President Nawrocki, was then located in the West - said Cezary Tomczyk in the "Piasecki's Conversation" on TVN24.

- And it was precisely German Patriot batteries, Dutch pilots, Polish pilots, Italian pilots, Australian pilots who defended Polish skies - he continued.

- So, either we realize that the enemy is in the East and allies are in the West, or we will be telling such nonsense as President Nawrocki - which is an exceptionally harmful statement, and I am also convinced that it is deeply exploited by Russian propaganda - he assessed.

- We have a ready draft bill that will legalize the use of flares during public gatherings. This matter should be changed - said Przemysław Wipler in an interview with Bogdan Rymanowski on the program "Gość Radia Zet".

- We have such a project ready, I want to present it to our club, I want to give it a quick run - he continued.

- I think he [Jacek Kurski] is comparable to Palikot. I don’t wish anyone to end up like Palikot, but I don’t know why the President keeps Jacek Kurski. I don’t understand this phenomenon, I am consistent in my assessment of him. I believe he harms PiS, the right wing - stated Marcin Mastalerek on RMF FM.

- Right-wing voters, PiS voters showed a red card to Jacek Kurski - he continued.

- Who is the leader of the right will be a matter of divided opinions, but yesterday the host, one of the hosts, was Krzysztof Bosak, he spoke there not as a politician, but as one of the people who are the fathers of the Independence March - said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet, when asked which of the participants of the Independence March is the leader of the right: Jarosław Kaczyński, Karol Nawrocki, Sławomir Mentzen, or Krzysztof Bosak.

- He is undoubtedly the leader of the broadly defined right, but he tries to be the leader of Poles, and this is a role he tries to step into. The fact that he is not afraid to stand among people, not behind barriers, cordons [...] but goes among the people and is not afraid of it, is something that no president before him has done, and it is a manifestation of courage and character - he continued, when asked about the fact that the media paid the most attention to President Nawrocki and whether he is the leader of the right.

- Prime Minister Donald Tusk, three years after the presidential election, said that in his heart, Rafał Trzaskowski is the president. It seems to me that after the presidential elections in 2025, the president in Prime Minister Tusk's heart will not be Karol Nawrocki this time. It seems to me that Donald Tusk simply cannot come to terms with the fact that his hometown buddy became the President of the Republic of Poland and that we have President Karol Nawrocki - stated Marcin Mastalerek on RMF FM.

- We are not eager to form coalitions with anyone [...] we want to govern Poland and we want to change Poland and help solve Poland's most important problems, but anyone who is contemplating coalitions and positions two years before elections is a madman - said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet.

- I imagine broad coalitions, but with formations, not with specific people, because we believe that Donald Tusk and Jarosław Kaczyński should rest in Ciechocinek, not be involved in shaping the next governments in two years' time, that is our demand, the older gentlemen should retire - he continued.

- It seems to me that this is a matter of Ziobro and his presence there [in Hungary], it has absolutely nothing to do with Polish-Hungarian relations and it depends more on the fact that Viktor Orbán himself fears that in the future, if he were to lose the parliamentary elections, which is possible, then perhaps he will need help - said Cezary Tomczyk in "Rozmowa Piaseckiego" on TVN24.

- Satraps around the world, or people who are, so to speak, meandering towards democratic-authoritarian governments, also look for options for themselves for the future. And by strange coincidence, people like Szmydt or Romanowski end up in Hungary or Belarus. It's not a coincidence - he stated.

- I would focus on something else, because this is not a Hungarian issue. This is a typically Polish issue. That is, Zbigniew Ziobro is fleeing because he feels guilty. Everyone knows that the guilty flee. You don't need to explain this to Poles. I have the general impression that PiS may soon be one of the largest parties in Hungary, because everything is heading in that direction - he continued.

- If the President is cut off from information from public security institutions, if that is the case, I don't know, but if it is, or if he is otherwise dissatisfied with how the services are functioning, then Mr. President has constitutional and legal tools to show that it's not the case that he will politely sign officer nominations, promotions, that are brought to him and that he will be like a proverbial notary - said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet, when asked who should step down regarding officer nominations, the prime minister or the president.

- The President has the ability to shape and exert influence on state institutions, and it is good that he uses them - he continued.

- There is a sense of strength and hope associated with it, because the nation, Poland as a state, Poland as a nation needs this strength. It is being pushed aside, attacked, ridiculed today, but it exists, and therefore there is also hope that the misfortune that befalls us from the currently ruling party, as well as the misfortune that threatens us from abroad, will be repelled. It will be very difficult, but we have something to rely on - said Jarosław Kaczyński in a statement to Radio Wnet after the Independence March.

- We must believe, we must believe in victory, and this November 11, 2025, strengthens our conviction that this victory can come, that it must come, but of course, it requires effort. It cannot be that we are waiting for God to have mercy on us, although we hope He will, but simply that we act, act, and act again. We have a powerful plan of action, and this march strengthens our conviction that there is someone to speak to - Jarosław Kaczyński continued.

- The entire power, when it comes to state security, belongs to the Council of Ministers. And the president has the right to meet with the heads of services if such an order is issued by the prime minister and coordinated by the prime minister - said Cezary Tomczyk in the "Piasecki's Conversation" on TVN24.

"The former minister [Zbigniew Ziobro] is in a very difficult situation, which stems from the way he changed the law. PiS MPs, when I talk to them, say that it is sad that after 8 years of their government, the rights of a person accused of anything are so weak, that there is a feeling of the prosecution's omnipotence, that the prosecution can do a lot, and defenders can do little, and that no mechanism for real defense has been created," said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet.

"This is the legacy of the law, which has not changed by a single iota since the time the Law and Justice party government, the government in which Zbigniew Ziobro was the Minister of Justice, relinquished power. He himself is reaping what he sowed for 8 years, or rather, even for 10 years of being the Minister of Justice," he continued.

- 1, a strong 1 - said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet when asked what rating he would give Minister Żurek on a scale of 1-10.

- His activity is the last, I hope, the last stage of the decomposition and devastation of the justice system. What is happening is being criticized even by institutions, people from institutions like the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights, by lawyers with very liberal views, because fighting for the rule of law with unlawful methods is something that is simply punishable and will be punishable - he continued.

- It is evident that Minister Żurek is doing things that Professor Bodnar was too smart for - he added.

- When I talk to his colleagues from PiS, they primarily can't imagine it anymore, because they are not satisfied with how he managed the Ministry of Justice - said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet, when asked if he couldn't imagine Zbigniew Ziobro ever becoming Minister of Justice again.

- What is left for them? They have a feeling that soon almost every one of their politicians could be in a similar situation - he continued, when asked if the "wall for Zbigniew Ziobro" campaign was a sham.

- He is a boor and a liar - Przemysław Wipler stated on Radio Zet, responding to a listener's question about whether Jarosław Kaczyński is a boor and a liar, or just a liar.

- Older people who tell you that your presence in politics is a mistake because you function differently than others, older people who exclude hundreds of thousands of Poles from normal functioning, saying: stay at home and get over things that are incurable, these are boors. And that's it - he continued, when asked about respect for older people.

"- We are working on [...] a program and on a negotiating position that we will put on the table with whomever we talk. It's clear that if we, as Konfederacja, enter the government and do not deliver, do not fulfill the hopes placed in us, we will perish, and for us, it will be complete devastation" - said Przemysław Wipler on Radio Zet.

"- Many a young formation has perished from entering the government, so for us, entering the government must be for a reason, for the purpose of having real influence" - he continued.

"- We must, for example, promise 300 specifics and deliver them in 100 days. [...] One can promise many very specific things and deliver them, if one takes their voters seriously" - he went on to say.

"- If we read the current coalition declaration, there are almost no specifics in it at all. Specifics were in the program of KO itself. And specifics must be promised and shown at the moment you form a coalition and say: listen, these are not election promises, these are things we have agreed on, and we will do them in the first 100 days" - he added.

Daniel Obajtek began his conversation before his testimony at the prosecutor's office by joking about the charges he is expected to hear.

- Daniel Obajtek, CEO of PKN Orlen, is due to hear charges today, it seems. Congratulations, people are divided into those who are sitting or will be sitting - Adrian Klarenbach began the conversation.

- Today, this is generally a matter of patriotism - Daniel Obajtek replied.

- Those without charges aren’t patriots, interesting - the journalist commented. 

- Exactly - replied the PiS MEP.

- People are paying more and more for the entire mechanism of energy support, transmission, and other things. I will explain it to you and to the public simply. Some people say, and often say, let's invest only in zero-emission energy. That it is the cheapest – that is nonsense. I will explain why shortly. Because if you invest in green energy, let's assume, you have to invest the same amount in balancing energy, i.e., energy that actually maintains balance in the grid. So, consumers pay twice, consumers pay twice - said Daniel Obajtek on TV Republika.

- Consequently, green energy requires grid reconstruction, and we have a problem with grids. Therefore, quietly, instead of placing the grid expansion for green energy more on green energy investors, it is actually thrown onto the customer's wallet, meaning the fee is raised to carry out investments - the PiS MEP continued.

- When we talk about the entire Green Deal, I will tell you quite honestly that I am not one of those people who speak fanatically. This is the biggest scam in the history of Europe, this is precisely the Green Deal - said Daniel Obajtek on TV Republika.

- I haven't just heard about certain things, but I have also seen documents that, during my tenure, indicated that Orlen was to be sold, primarily dedicated to companies. Not just Lotos, Orlen was to be sold to dedicated companies, and I want to tell you, not just to dedicated companies. You know whose money Orlen was to be bought with, and I know what I'm saying. If I'm saying something wrong, let the esteemed coalition generally report me to the prosecutor's office. Orlen was to be sold to companies mediating in oil trade, which, incidentally, supplied oil to Orlen and Lotos and acted as intermediaries - said Daniel Obajtek on Telewizja Republika.

-  Although most of this oil could have been purchased directly from national producers, because we had spare transmission capacity via the Druzhba pipeline, there was no need for any intermediaries at that moment when it came to purchasing oil - Daniel Obajtek continued.

- Today, only political decisions are being made; today, results don't matter, today the strength of the Polish concern doesn't matter, today investments are not important, today the state is practically collapsing economically. Economically, no decisions are being made. If you don't believe me, I refer you to the publications of the Minister of State Assets, who recently partially dismissed the supervisory board, claiming that no decisions are being made - said Daniel Obajtek before his interrogation at the prosecutor's office.

- I am being accused. Most likely, of what? Of daring to 'de-kulakize' companies mediating in oil trading. This is the consequence of us breaking the post-communist grip on oil and gas procurement, on companies involved in bio-additives, and many other areas. That's the truth: we have built a stable concern, which today is worth 100 billion złoty - said Daniel Obajtek before his interrogation at the prosecutor's office.

- Today, a scenario is being realized, and I will give you an example: would you not commission investigations into certain matters if data were leaking from the company, if there were wiretaps in the office, if money was flowing for negative PR campaigns, if there were tens, hundreds of publications aiming to prevent the merger of Orlen and Lotos? - Daniel Obajtek continued.

- I will always come, appear when summoned by the authorities, whatever they may be. And I'll tell you one thing. For two years, speculations have been created, especially on TVN, that I have fled, that I am abroad, that I am in Budapest. Why have you been lying to this society for two years? Why have you tried to destroy the biggest economic process for two years and who paid you to destroy this process? said Daniel Obajtek before his interrogation at the prosecutor's office.

- This is another deception that Donald Tusk is committing - said Mariusz Błaszczak in an interview with Ewa Bugała on TV Republika's program "W samo południe", when asked about Prime Minister Donald Tusk's statement: "Yes, as I said, Poland will not accept migrants under the Migration Pact. Nor will it pay for it."

- When we look at what he did in '23, when he called migrants, those who forced their way across the border from Belarusian territory, he called them people who are poor and looking for their place on Earth; now he has changed his rhetoric, he goes on inspections to the Polish-Belarusian border - he continued.

- Donald Tusk is manipulating; at that time, in '23, there was an opportunity to throw the migration pact into the trash. What was that opportunity? A referendum - he went on to say.

"I refuse to nominate 46 judges. This is no longer just a verbal signal, but a concrete decision not to grant nominations," said President Karol Nawrocki in a statement to the media.

"I will also not grant promotions to those judges who question the constitutional and legal order of the Republic, to those judges who listen to the bad advice of the Minister of Justice, Waldemar Żurek, who encourages judges to question the constitutional and legal order of the Republic," he continued.

"I am honest in fulfilling this declaration, because as early as August 6th, when I was sworn in as President of the Republic, I gave [...] a verbal statement regarding how I would proceed in these matters," he went on.

"I clearly stated that for the next 5 years, judges who question the constitutional and legal order of the Republic of Poland cannot count on a promotion, if it depends on the president, nor on a judicial nomination," he added.

"These were words. Three months have passed since my words and my warnings to the judges of the Republic not to succumb to the madness that Minister of Justice is perpetrating. Today, these are no longer just words, but concrete decisions. Therefore, we are returning judicial nominations, withholding consent. For the next 5 years, no judge who questions the constitutional powers of the president, the Polish Constitution, and the Polish legal system can count on a nomination," he emphasized.

- The President refused nominations for higher, one might say, positions, for the higher echelons of the judiciary. Nominations were still arriving during Andrzej Duda's presidency. These were already being very strongly analyzed then, and President Duda also did not sign these nominations, and here President Nawrocki decided to conclude this matter, i.e., to refuse by his decree as President of the Republic of Poland the appointment of these judges to higher instance courts. This is the essence of the President's decision today - stated Zbigniew Bogucki at a press conference.

"These judges will continue to rule. The President is not changing his stance that Article 180 of the Constitution, which contains three very simple words – judges are irremovable – is immutable. These judges simply will not be promoted," stated Zbigniew Bogucki at a press conference.

- This man [Daniel Obajtek] is being pursued today, they want to press charges against him, but it so happens that when President Obajtek was the head of Orlen, Orlen generated gigantic, multi-billion profits, it helped the state in very difficult times, for example the COVID crisis, and after a year of this team's rule, the profits of Orlen, if I remember correctly, have evaporated, amounting to 20 billion PLN. If I spoke Prime Minister Tusk's language, I would ask: Mr. Prime Minister Tusk, who stole that money? - stated Zbigniew Bogucki at a press conference.
 

- The President's statement itself indicates such an attempt to usurp powers. Judges have the right to [...] to question the status of other judges in the form of a ruling. There are rulings from European courts on this, and there are rulings from Polish courts - said Adam Szłapka at a press conference, when asked about the President's statement regarding the refusal to nominate 46 judges.

- What the President said in his statement is, in fact, an attempt to question the constitutional principles of judicial independence and the independence of courts - he continued.

- The judiciary must be independent of other branches of government in Poland; judges are independent, and courts are independent. Any attempt to question this is simply usurpation and an attempt to undermine, one might say, the justice system in Poland and to deepen the chaos that we have been subjected to by Minister Zbigniew Ziobro, the previous parliamentary majority, and President Andrzej Duda - he went on to say.

- We will be able to address any notifications or statements from Mr. Romanowski or Mr. Ziobro once they come to Poland and personally file such notifications at the prosecutor's office to which they intend to file them – Adam Szłapka said at a press conference.

- Until they do, it means they feel responsible for the matters they are accused of by the prosecution – he continued.

- This is obviously a government success. We have said, and the Prime Minister has been saying from the very beginning, that Poland will not be covered by the system of compulsory relocations - said Adam Szłapka at a press conference, when asked about Poland's exemption from the relocation system and whether it could be considered a success, or a temporary success in this matter.

- We see this, we know this, and our partners also know that [...] Poland is under significant migratory pressure, and therefore cannot have any additional obligations imposed on it - he continued.

- The solution is that Poland will naturally submit such a request and will be able to submit further requests of this kind, meaning, in fact, we will be exempted from this obligation - he went on to say.

- We are talking about sending a letter to the heads of services, I say this in quotes, but it was clear from that letter, summoning them for a briefing. The heads of services are directly subordinate to the Prime Minister, and for such a meeting to take place, there must be an agreement between the President and the Prime Minister - Adam Szłapka said at a press conference.

- I cannot imagine a situation where, for example, the Prime Minister summons the Head of the Presidential Chancellery to a meeting [...] just imagine what the President's reaction would be if he were summoned for a briefing and had to explain what the Presidential Chancellery is doing, one of the ministers of the Presidential Chancellery - he continued.

- These state officials, whose boss is the Prime Minister, are subordinate only to the Prime Minister, and to meet with them or arrange a meeting, it must be agreed with the Prime Minister - he went on to say.

- We are awaiting information from the Chancellery of the President, a list of 46 people, because from media reports we know that the President refused nominations to 46 individuals. According to my information, in the so-called "freezer" at the President's office, still under President Duda, now under President Nawrocki, there were 100 potential candidates awaiting appointment to the position of judge, and from the information I possess, these were individuals who passed the competition before the so-called neo-National Council of the Judiciary (neo-KRS) - stated Waldemar Żurek at a press briefing.

- I would like to see this list by name, who is on this list, who the President refused to nominate. This is quite significant because the statements of the Chancellery of the President's representatives indicate, in my opinion, non-merit-based reasons for such a refusal - he continued.

- "So that there is nothing" - which is Kononowicz's doctrine in the Presidential Palace - Prime Minister Donald Tusk wrote on X.

The head of government referred in this way to the president's refusal regarding judicial nominations.

"The Razem National Board decided unanimously today to remove Paulina Matysiak from the list of Razem members. Paulina Matysiak has not been coordinating her actions with the party and has not been cooperating for a long time. Numerous attempts to involve her in the work of Razem and the parliamentary club have proven unsuccessful. In such a situation, further political cooperation within a single group is impossible." reads the Razem party's statement on X.

"We have cooperated for years, and for that, we are grateful. We remain, of course, ready for joint actions in the Sejm on transport issues and other matters important from the perspective of Poland's development. However, in Razem, we agreed to build an alternative to PO-PiS." the post states.

"In many cases, Paulina Matysiak's actions did not take into account this strategy and the values of Razem that stand behind it. A year ago, a group of female politicians tried, through their individual decisions, to register Razem into Tusk's bloc. We did not allow that. Razem will not register itself into the second of these camps, which are harmful to Poland." it was summarized.

Zarząd Krajowy Razem zdecydował dziś jednogłośnie o skreśleniu Pauliny Matysiak z listy członkiń Razem. Paulina Matysiak od dłuższego czasu nie uzgadniała swoich działań i nie współpracowała z partią. Liczne próby włączenia jej w prace Razem i koła poselskiego okazały się…

- Tomorrow, a team of prosecutors will decide, so one can say that the prosecutors working on this case have not yet made a final decision, but in a situation where we have such serious charges and requests for temporary arrest, which will be considered by an independent court, we have not seen such a practice before - stated Waldemar Żurek at a press briefing.

- I assess the lack of judicial nominations negatively. I assess this attempt to increasingly conflict with the Minister of Justice negatively. The President and the Minister of Justice - I see that this conflict from the President's side is deepening - said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz in a conversation with journalists, commenting on the President's refusal regarding judicial nominations.

- This never serves any purpose. I would encourage dialogue, to consider precisely our proposal for a constitutional reset - he indicated.

- What is the effect for the recipients, for those who are subject to the justice system and seek justice? It is that the chaos, the disarray caused by our predecessors' 8 years in power is simply growing, and that is not good at all. Mr. President Nawrocki is deepening this – said Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz in a conversation with journalists, commenting on the president's refusal regarding judicial nominations.

Paulina Matysiak reacted to today's decision by Razem's authorities to strike her name from the party's membership list.

We reported on this in more detail here.

As she wrote: "In 2017, I joined Razem because I believed that a different kind of politics was possible and that it was possible to build an inclusive, not a hermetic, left in Poland."

"Today, in 2025, now that I have been expelled from this party, I remain convinced that we need a left that is open to different points of view and different social environments, not one that is sectarian," she stated.

"My work related to the fight against transport exclusion, road safety, large and developmental investments like CPK, and supporting the employee side is still ongoing. Nothing changes in this regard. I will continue my work as an unaffiliated MP (they won't kick me out of Kutno)," Matysiak assured.

"Thank you for all the messages of support that are coming from you. It means a lot to me. Let's stay in touch!" - concluded the former Razem MP.

W 2017 roku wstępowałam do Razem, bo wierzyłam, że inna polityka jest możliwa i możliwe jest tworzenie w Polsce lewicy włączającej, a nie hermetycznej.

- When rule of law arrives in the country, Zbigniew Ziobro will certainly also arrive, and we'll see how quickly that will be - said Zbigniew Ziobro in an interview with Piotr Witwicki on the program "Gość Wydarzeń" on Polsat News.

- The rule of law must function, it's simple - he continued, when asked what needs to happen for him to return.

- Everyone is equal before the law, and everyone has the right to defend themselves against lawlessness. And lawlessness is what Donald Tusk is doing, committing crime after crime. We are dealing with a criminal gang that is currently ruling Poland - said Zbigniew Ziobro on Polsat News.

- Everyone counted on Donald Tusk to lock me up. He has broken the law many times. And whether I am in detention is a question, and in that case, who is the loser - said Zbigniew Ziobro in Polsat News, when asked about his statement in the Sejm, in which he said, among other things, 'I hope you won't turn out to be such losers as during the times of the State Tribunal'.

- If they have broken laws so many times, so many times have they broken the legal order and the Constitution, then for them, breaking my immunity, arresting me, they have had many opportunities for this, it is a great proof of their failure and executive incompetence, their ineptitude. Because today I can attack Donald Tusk, and I will do it day after day - he continued.

- They are losers, and complete ones at that - he went on to say.

- There's no such thing as shadow hunters, that's fantasy – said Zbigniew Ziobro on Polsat News, when asked about Dariusz Matecki's words regarding the "shooting down" of a shadow hunter who would attempt to detain the former Minister of Justice.

- There's no such thing, let's not create fiction, it's just as likely an UFO would abduct me – he continued.

- There is no such institution in law, no such possibility. Let's not talk about unrealistic things – he went on to say.

- I think that this [the President's refusal regarding judicial nominations] is more of an open war by the President against some constitutional order, because that's how it should probably be interpreted. Perhaps the President has mistaken himself, does he think he is not so much a President, but some Tsar or Emperor in Poland? That's not the way, Mr. President - said Marcin Kierwiński in an interview with Aleksandra Pawlicka on TVP Info's "Question of the Day".

- This is, on the one hand, a procedural proposal from my attorneys, who approached the prosecutor's office with such a position - Zbigniew Ziobro said on Polsat News, when asked why he would agree to answer in Brussels but not in Poland.

- My unequivocal conditions for the return of the rule of law in Poland will be presented by me soon, you will all hear them. Poland should be and must be a state of law, not because of Zbigniew Ziobro's interests, but because of the interests of all Poles - he continued.

- We are managing all the time. Because regardless of the fact that the President is trying to constantly throw a spanner in the works, the government is functioning normally and the government is functioning effectively. Because regardless of how the President wants to make it difficult for the special services to operate, these services are working very efficiently when it comes to detecting and preventing acts of sabotage - said Marcin Kierwiński on TVP Info's 'Question of the Day'.

- I think the President wants at all costs to bring about a situation where this government will have more and more problems. Only [...] in the context of the threats facing Poland, this is simply unreasonable, it is toying with Polish security - said Marcin Kierwiński in "Question of the Day" on TVP Info.

- Regardless of how much divides me from the President, I would expect some responsibility for the state from the person who holds this office, some elementary reflexes that allow him to break free from the political camp he comes from, towards being the president of all Poles. Well, President Nawrocki is simply organically incapable of this. And it is very sad - he stated.

- Look at the results during my time, look at the results during their time, and simply start thinking logically. This is about billions, this is about huge money, this is about significant influence, and I was never comfortable for them, even though I made the biggest investments in Poland, the biggest acquisitions - said Daniel Obajtek in “Gość Dzisiaj” on Telewizja Republika.

- If you have the opportunity, please ask Mr. Donald Tusk to have Mr. Sienkiewicz disclose all the reports, because Mr. Sienkiewicz used to do business with Orlen. Then, of course, he changed the company's name, then he left that company, he actually entered it, and Orlen paid him 14 million for advisory services, and it so happened that these reports disappeared. It is difficult for Mr. Sienkiewicz, and not only that, I am curious where the money went, to whom, what the connection was with Eastern studies, what the Russian recommendation looked like. It would be good for Mr. Sienkiewicz to disclose his reports, and we had every right to investigate Mr. Sienkiewicz through an international company - said Daniel Obajtek on "Gość Dzisiaj" on Telewizja Republika.

- I believe that Sienkiewicz should return the 14 million to the company, but today no one is asking him any inconvenient questions - Daniel Obajtek continued.

- From these PiS admirers who attend such ceremonies, one can expect such behavior [as booing during the speech at Piłsudski Square]. This is a sad reflection of what PiS has done to these people, because it is this deceitful rhetoric that puts them in such a state. And it’s sad, because [...] Independence Day should be a holiday that unites, that brings joy – said Marcin Kierwiński in “Pytanie dnia” on TVP Info.

He assessed: - If these are the voters who today stand shoulder-to-shoulder with PiS politicians, who are suspected of serious crimes, like Mr. Ziobro, Mr. Romanowski, if they boo me, Prime Minister Kosiniak-Kamysz, or Waldek Żurek, it means we are doing our job well. This is just motivation for me to more forcefully restore elementary legal standards in Poland.

- I was one of Donald Tusk's 100 promises. His poll numbers went up a bit above 30%, so he fulfilled another promise, because he counts his promises in relation to his public support polls. So, he fulfilled one promise, as one of the promises was to hold Daniel Obajtek accountable, albeit for Lotos, but that's not working out for him and won't, because those processes were conducted very carefully - Daniel Obajtek said in "Gość Dzisiaj" on Telewizja Republika.

- So, was I supposed to disregard the strategic interests of our company, which is the jewel in the crown today? If these insecure people don't see that, let them go abroad, let them see what our stations look like abroad, let them see how Orlen has changed, how the company has changed. They don't want to see it, they did everything to simply privatize this company, to sell it for peanuts, and we prevented them from selling this company - said Daniel Obajtek on "Gość Dzisiaj" on Telewizja Republika.

- Today, the state holds almost 50% in Orlen, previously the state held 27% in Orlen, so Donald Tusk should thank me, because I am the only one who carried out the repolonization of Polish business. He himself was recently talking about repolonization. He shouldn't be chasing me, he should be thanking me - said Daniel Obajtek in "Gość Dzisiaj" on TV Republika.

- Already 76 people have been fined, either for pyrotechnics or for content that violated Polish law and was propagated. And this is just the beginning. Because please remember that today police officers are sitting, monitoring footage from dashcams, bodycams, and city surveillance, and if they see a particular individual who broke the law – for example, by setting off flares – then such persons will also be held accountable, in a subsequent procedure - said Marcin Kierwiński on TVP Info's "Question of the Day".

- I am very glad that the journalist mentioned Mr. MP Mentzen, because I believe that everyone should be equal before the law. Mr. Mentzen broke the law, he was aware of it, and he should answer for it - he stated.

- Incidentally, I wonder, when they call themselves a march of Polish patriots – doesn't it clash with Mr. Mentzen being a patriot while breaking Polish law? Because for me, being a patriot means obeying the law - he assessed.

When asked if the request to revoke Mentzen's immunity would be submitted during the upcoming Sejm session, he replied: - I don't know, because these are decisions that the police will make. As soon as they finish this request, as soon as they… A good standard of this government, the government of Prime Minister Donald Tusk, is that it is automatic. It is the police who decide on these types of matters. These are not decisions made somewhere in politicians' offices.

- A moment ago, Monika Olejnik lied on TVN, claiming my grandfather served in the Wehrmacht. This is a lie - Sławomir Mentzen wrote on social media.

- My grandfather served in the Polish Army, he fought in the September campaign on the Polish side. He had a German father, a Polish mother, and he chose to be Polish. TVN - constant lies, all day long! - stated the Confederation leader.

Przed chwilą Monika Olejnik kłamała w TVN, że mój dziadek służył w Wehrmachcie. To jest kłamstwo.

Mój dziadek służył w Wojsku Polskim, walczył w kampanii wrześniowej po polskiej stronie. Miał niemieckiego ojca, matkę Polkę i wybrał, że chce być Polakiem.

TVN - ciągłe kłamstwa,… pic.twitter.com/5mUhgaxQaq
