Today's State of Play
-- "I AM NOT GOING TO WAIT." THE PRESIDENT SUBMITS THE "DIGNIFIED RETIREMENT" PROJECT - 300LIVE: https://300polityka.pl/pl/live
-- THE BENEFICIARIES OF THE PIS GOVERNMENT'S RECKONINGS ARE NOT THE GOVERNMENT, BUT BRAUN AND KONFEDERACJA - PROF. JAROSŁAW FLIS IN CONVERSATION WITH ARKADIUSZ GRUSZCZYŃSKI IN GW: “What is certain for today is something else: Grzegorz Braun is profiting from the troubles of Kaczyński and his associates, and Sławomir Mentzen and Krzysztof Bosak's Konfederacja has stable poll numbers. (...) Therefore, the beneficiaries of the PiS government's reckonings are not the government, but the other right-wing parties.”
-- KO IS DOING EXACTLY THE SAME, THE PARTIES HAVE SWAPPED ROLES - FLIS CONTINUES ON GRUSZCZYŃSKI IN GW: “Civic Coalition (KO) also has a problem, because for eight years of PiS rule, we heard about the politicization of the prosecutor's office, revenge on the politicians of the then-opposition, investigations controlled by politicians. And today, KO is doing exactly the same, the parties have swapped roles. (...) From the narrative we are hearing from the ruling camp politicians, an image emerges that was, until recently, criticized by the same people, i.e., a manually controlled prosecutor's office.”
-- IT WOULD BE SUICIDAL FOR THE RULING PARTY - FLIS IN RESPONSE TO GRUSZCZYŃSKI'S QUESTION ABOUT EARLY ELECTIONS: “It would be suicidal for the ruling party. Today, the government has a stable majority, and only those who reached the finish line in full strength have a chance of winning, as history of the Third Republic shows, which we saw clearly in 2011 and 2019.”

-- THE MORE OLD, FAMILIAR FACES FROM PIS PREPARING FOR A RETURN TO POWER, THE MORE VOTERS OF THE 15X COALITION ARE WILLING TO FORGIVE TUSK FOR HIS POOR GOVERNANCE AND FAILURE TO FULFILL PROMISES - ANALYSIS BY ŁUKASZ PAWŁOWSKI FROM OGB.
-- WHAT WILL BE KEY FOR THE RIGHT WILL BE TO INVENT A ROLE FOR PRESIDENT NAWROCKI SO THAT IT HAS AN IMPACT ON POLITICS AND THE DISPUTE OVER KEY ISSUES - PAWŁOWSKI CONTINUES:

-- THIS HOPELESS GOVERNMENT IS BETTER THAN A GOVERNMENT OF BRAUN, MENTZEN, AND KACZYŃSKI - ON THE TUNE FOR KO COALITION VOTERS - MARCIN DUMA IN CONVERSATION WITH GRZEGORZ SROCZYŃSKI IN GAZETA.PL: “Coalition voters are extremely disappointed with Tusk's government, and now the sentiment is more or less: 'This hopeless government is better than a government of Braun, Mentzen, and Kaczyński with Czarnek as prime minister.' This is the sum of all fears for half of Poland.”
-- DUMA CONTINUES ON SROCZYŃSKI IN GAZETA.PL: “Another problem is superimposed on this: all the themes that PiS mapped out perfectly for the presidential campaign, today no longer resonate. Nawrocki's campaign - apart from the fact that I am closer to the people, and Trzaskowski is closer to the elites - revolved around lower prices. 'Tusk's high prices.' 'If I become president, I will lower energy prices for you by 33 percent.' And this is precisely what has recently changed in Poles' perception, that inflation has indeed fallen; today, the conversation about runaway prices is not entirely adequate. The problem of high prices still exists, but not so much as to engage us.”
-- THEY ARE NOT PLAYING A GAME AGAINST TUSK NOW. THEY ARE PLAYING A VERY SPECIFIC GAME AGAINST BRAUN'S TEAM ON ONE SIDE, AND THE KONFEDERACJA TEAM ON THE OTHER - DUMA TELLS SROCZYŃSKI ABOUT PIS'S SITUATION: “They are not playing a game against Tusk now. They are playing a very specific game against Braun's team on one side, and the Konfederacja team on the other. And if Kaczyński does not win against these two opponents, his situation in 2027 will be very difficult. In the exit poll results after the first round of the presidential elections, we could see how the votes of different age groups were distributed. The wave of young voters washing away the PO-PiS duopoly is constantly shifting. In two years, we will have hundreds of thousands of new voters, and conversely, hundreds of thousands of those who voted in the presidential elections may no longer be alive.”

-- TUSK HAS ONCE AGAIN SHOWN THAT WITH A FEW RATHER DOUBTFUL SENSATIONS, ONE CAN CREATE THE IMPRESSION OF MOVING TO THE OFFENSIVE - PIOTR SEMKA IN DO RZECZY: “Regardless, Tusk has once again shown that with a few rather dubious sensations, one can create the impression of moving to the offensive. Moreover, recent polls are favorable to Tusk's strong position as the savior of the current coalition. Nowa Lewica, Polskie Stronnictwo Ludowe, and Szymon Hołownia's Polska 2050 are not crossing the electoral threshold. This gives Tusk the position of a trainer with a solid whip over his coalition partners. It is already clear that the only chance for these political weaklings is a joint list, the determination of which will be entirely decided by the Great Leader of Civic Coalition himself.”

-- PERHAPS NOW HE HAS DECIDED TO BECOME THE BIGGEST PODCASTER IN POLAND AND SIMPLY SAW WHICH PATH WOULD LEAD HIM TO THIS GOAL THE FASTEST - DAWID KARPIUK IN NEWSWEEK'S COVER STORY ABOUT BOGDAN RYMANOWSKI: “As someone who considers himself an outsider, he sympathizes with outsiders. Back in the 90s, he believed that the Third Republic was burdened by the sin of falsehood. Perhaps this belief has remained with him to this day. But also remember that Bogdan always had great ambitions, he wanted to be number one. Perhaps now he has decided to become the biggest podcaster in Poland and simply saw which path would lead him to this goal the fastest.”

-- IN 2020, ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT POLITICAL OPERATIONS BY THE CBA TOOK PLACE IN CLOSE COOPERATION WITH PUBLIC TELEVISION - WOJCIECH CZUCHNOWSKI ON JEDYNKA GW: “In his news report, Gmyz is first, others repeat it afterwards, the spokeswoman for the Regional Prosecutor's Office in Poznań, and finally Stanisław Żaryn, the spokesman for the coordinator of special services and deputy minister of PiS, Mariusz Kamiński. Information about the search is at the top of the TVP Info service and in the main broadcast of 'Wiadomości' all day. In short clips, Gmyz reports from the lawyer's house. This is accompanied by drone footage of the property.”

-- HEAD OF KOWR FROM PSL MET WITH DAWTONA FOUNDER JUST BEFORE THE CPK AFFAIR EXPLODED - SZYMON JADCZAK IN WP: “The current director general of KOWR and simultaneously MP from PSL, Henryk Smolarz, met with Andrzej Wielgomas shortly after receiving questions from Wirtualna Polska regarding the plot of land planned for the CPK tracks. Today, he claims that he learned about the affair from our article because... he did not read the documents sent in his name to CPK.”

-- HEAD OF KOWR SHOULD RESIGN IMMEDIATELY - PAWEŁ KAPUSTA IN WP: “After such words, it is impossible to rebuild trust in KOWR or in the state that is supposed to care for the common good. Henryk Smolarz should resign immediately. Not because he made a mistake, but because his explanations completely compromise the office he heads.”
