— SZYMON JADCZAK: A veeeery interesting fragment of a podcast revealing that Minister Szejna is working for the Chinese lobby and collaborating with Michał Krzymowski, Wipler's lobbying partner. This truly compromises Szejna within the government.

— ANDRZEJ SZEJNA'S PROBLEM EXPOSED DONALD TUSK'S WEAKNESS – JACEK NIZINKIEWICZ IN RZ: “Włodzimierz Czarzasty cannot afford to have another minister dismissed after Dariusz Wieczorek. Donald Tusk would most readily listen to Radosław Sikorski and remove Szejna from the government, but he must consider Lewica. Especially during the presidential campaign. Biejat is not a strong candidate, but Rafał Trzaskowski will need the votes of left-wing voters in the second round.”
— CZARZASTY CAN BE SURE THAT THE SZEJNA MATTER WILL BE RESOLVED ACCORDING TO HIS WISHES – NIZINKIEWICZ'S CONCLUSION: “The erosion of power continues. And Donald Tusk has no interest in accelerating this process. Therefore, Czarzasty can be sure that the Szejna matter will be resolved on his terms.“

— HOŁOWNIA WAS TO INFORM LEADERS OF THE PARTIES FORMING THE OCTOBER 15 COALITION THAT HE WILL STEP DOWN AS MARSHAL OF THE SEJM IN THE AUTUMN – ACCORDING TO ONET INFORMATION – KAMIL DZIUBKA: “Szymon Hołownia was to inform the leaders of the parties forming the October 15 coalition that he will step down as Marshal of the Sejm in the autumn – according to Onet information. Until now, this matter has caused emotions primarily among Nowa Lewica politicians. It is the leader of this grouping, Włodzimierz Czarzasty, who is to replace the head of Polska 2050 in the second-highest office in the state.”

— ON A NON-AGGRESSION PACT BETWEEN NAWROCKI AND MENTZEN – GRZEGORZ OSIECKI AND TOMASZ ŻÓŁCIAK IN WP: “- We have a kind of non-aggression pact with Mentzen, which will improve flows between him and Nawrocki in the second round – admits a PiS insider responsible for Karol Nawrocki's campaign. Confederation politicians, on the one hand, do not confirm this, but on the other hand, they themselves admit that their voters do not expect the opposition to fight each other. Current polls suggest that PiS and the Confederation would have a majority in the Sejm.”
— PI'S CAMPAIGN STAFF BELIEVE TRZASKOWSKI WILL HAVE NOWHERE TO DRAW ADDITIONAL VOTERS FROM IN THE SECOND ROUND – OSIECKI AND ŻÓŁCIAK FURTHER IN WP: “PiS campaign staff believe that Trzaskowski will have nowhere to draw additional voters from in the second round, unlike Nawrocki. PiS campaign staff research indicates that up to 70% of Mentzen's electorate could vote for the PiS candidate in the second round.”

— MENTZEN DREAMS OF CLOSING RANKS WITH FATHER RYDZYK – JACEK GĄDEK IN NEWSWEEK: “The blessing of Father Tadeusz Rydzyk would be a blessing for Mentzen, who is very poorly recognized among voters aged 65+. – That would be a gamechanger. Mentzen appearing on Radio Maryja – sighs one of the Confederation's campaign strategists. A simple interview on Radio Maryja is the Confederation's dream. Mentzen is from Toruń, as is Father Rydzyk's empire, but so far, no chemistry has developed between Mentzen and the Redemptorist.”

— AS A RESULT OF THE POLITICAL CONFLICT THAT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 20 YEARS, SOCIETY IS YIELDING TO A COLLECTIVE OF INDIVIDUALS. IF MENTZEN DOES NOT REACH THE SECOND ROUND, AN ANTTISOCIAL PROMISES FESTIVAL WILL BEGIN – ESTERA FLIEGER IN RZ: “The Confederation is on an upward trend today also because, as a result of the political conflict that has been going on for 20 years, society is yielding to a collective of individuals. Sławomir Mentzen's state is a jungle where the strongest, considered resourceful, will survive. All of this bodes ill for the country's security, given the external threats. And if Mentzen does not make it to the second round, a festival of antisocial promises will begin, made to the Confederation's electorate and its leader by the remaining candidates.”

— PO-PIS IS THE OPERATING SYSTEM OF PEACETIME. IT EXCELLENTLY HANDLES THE RITUAL TRIBAL WAR, BUT WILL NOT HOLD UP IN A CLASH WITH REAL PROBLEMS IN THE NEW DIFFICULT TIMES, WHEN DONALD TRUMP IS KILLING THE LIBERAL INTERNATIONAL ORDER – MICHAŁ PŁOCIŃSKI IN RZ.
— MENTZEN IS MERELY A VOICE OF PROTEST AGAINST THE DISCONNECTION FROM REALITY OF THE POLISH POLITICAL CLASS – PŁOCIŃSKI FURTHER IN RZ: “Mentzen or his successors will only be a voice of protest against the disconnection from reality of the Polish political class and that unfortunate groundwork which still lies neglected, while Donald Tusk poses so beautifully for photos with Mark Rutte.”
— BASIC MATTERS OF OUR SECURITY, WHICH COULD BE RESOLVED DOMESTICALLY IMMEDIATELY – ONLY POLITICAL WILL IS NEEDED – STRANGELY ENOUGH, THEY LIE NEGLECTED – PŁOCIŃSKI FURTHER IN RZ: “It's beautiful to appear in photos from European salons, pleasant to debate grand plans, loud investments, and enormous sums of money, but basic matters of our security, which could be resolved domestically immediately – only political will is needed – strangely enough, they lie neglected.”

— IT IS WORTH SEEING FIRSTHAND HOW QUICKLY WE ARE SLIPPING DOWN THE SLOPE. FROM THE TEXT, YOU WILL LEARN THAT “THE NOOSE IS TIGHTENING AROUND POLAND” BECAUSE “OUR COUNTRY HAS AGAIN FOUND ITSELF IN THE CROSSHAIRS OF POLISH AND WESTERN ORGANIZATIONS DEALING WITH HUMAN RIGHTS” – PAULINA SIEGIEŃ IN KRYTYKA POLITYCZNA: “Let's take, for instance, a recent article from Forsal, a portal published by the publisher of „Dziennik Gazeta Prawna”. I feel bad sharing a link to it, but it's worth seeing firsthand how quickly we are slipping down the slope. From the text, you will learn that „the noose is tightening around Poland” because „our country has again found itself in the crosshairs of Polish and Western organizations dealing with human rights”. Although humanitarian organizations don't shoot, according to the author of the text, publishing a report on the situation of migrants on the Polish-Belarusian border and the accounts of brutality by Polish services towards people on the move is an equivalent hostile act. In addition, we immediately have an insinuation in the lead: „Strangely enough, this is happening at the same time as Belarus and Russia are launching another destabilization campaign, and the West is also threatening us.”
— BY GENERATING A NEW PHASE OF INTENSIFICATION AROUND THE ULTIMATELY UNATTAINABLE SEALING, POLISH AUTHORITIES ARE THEMSELVES PROVIDING THE BELARUSIAN REGIME WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO INFLUENCE THE ELECTORAL PROCESS IN POLAND – SIEGIEŃ FURTHER IN KRYTYKA POLITYCZNA: “By generating a new phase of intensification around the ultimately unattainable sealing, Polish authorities are themselves providing the Belarusian regime with opportunities to influence the electoral process in Poland. This has been happening for several years now. To a large extent, it is thanks to the satrap neighbor that we have such a strong shift to the right. Lukashenko effectively pours fuel and stokes fear of all migrants and foreigners. Polish politicians gladly burn this fuel, completely ignoring the fact that they are refueling from a refinery in Novopolotsk. That is, goods processed by the Lukashenko regime and of Russian origin.”
— CIVIL DEFENSE REMAINS A FICTION ON PAPER. I AM THEREFORE AMAZED WHEN I HEAR THAT THE TIME HAS COME FOR MINES – SIEGIEŃ FURTHER IN KP: “I live exactly 7 kilometers from this border and I admit I had no idea the situation was so serious. No one here is signaling anything of the sort to us; we haven't had any training yet, nor have we received any information regarding operating in crisis conditions, potential evacuation, etc. Civil defense remains a fiction on paper. I am therefore amazed when I hear that the time has come for mines, because if the seriousness of the situation requires it, then in fact, we should already be packed and evacuated by buses somewhere further inland.”
