Sorry Netflix, whole Poland is watching new season of "Sejm" series.

What the fuck

In an absolutely not shocking turn of events, the far right has turned the first session of Polish parliament into a shitshow.

Grzegorz Braun, a member of Konfederacja party, the thinly veiled fascists in polish parliament, used a fire extinguisher to extinguish a menorah that was standing in the hall of Sejm. That's another racist/ xenophobic act under his belt. Later on he argued that hanukkah is inherently racist and morally bankrupt and got kicked out of the parliament session.

I'm sorry to the Jewish people but his party is thankfully losing support and hopefully will break up soon.

What an absolute shit show.

Not the only wild event during this session though. Yesterday Jarosław Kaczyński, the leader of PiS- the ruling party for the last 8 years - went to the rostrum after Donald Tusk was voted into the position of Prime Minister, started speaking without any explanation and accused Tusk of being a German agent.

This accusation is even more out of place when you consider that Jarosław Kaczyński was a vice - prime minister for around the past 6 months, and he was supposed to be focusing on internal safety. So even if he was a German agent that would mean that Kaczyński was incredibly incompetent in this role, which, well, checks out.

In Poland, Donald Tusk (the GOOD Donald) was formally sworn in as prime minister on Wednesday along with the rest of his government. He gave a speech in the Sejm, parts of which you can see with subtitles above.

He has promised to undo much of what the previous rightwing PiS government had done for the past eight years.

Expect Poland to play an increasingly important role in EU affairs.

Things may be bumpy into mid 2025. Lame duck President Andrzej Duda, associated with PiS, will remain in office until the next presidential election set for May of 2025.

Tusk is pro-democracy, pro-NATO, pro-Europe, pro-Ukraine, pro-US, anti-Putin, and anti-bigotry. What's not to like? 😁

This is the new cabinet.

Several notable ministers...

Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz - A Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense. He's from Trzecia Droga (Third Way), one of Tusk's coalition partners.

Krzysztof Gawkowski - Another Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Affairs. He's from Nowa Lewnica (New Left), Tusk's other coalition partner.

Adam Bodnar - Minister of Justice. An anti-racist who previously served as Commissioner of Human Rights.

Barbara Nowacka – Minister of Education. She is an advocate of separation of church and state and leading opponent of the strict anti-abortion law passed by the recently defeated PiS government. IMHO, she's one of the best speakers in Polish politics.

Radosław "Radek" Sikorski - Minister of Foreign Affairs. A veteran colleague of Tusk who served as Foreign Minister and Defense Minister in previous governments. His wife happens to be American historian and journalist Anne Applebaum.

Speaking of Sikorski, he's already spoken with Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Ukraine's Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba who invited him to Kyiv.

This government has hit the ground running.

Dlaczego tak wiele osób broni Brauna?

Ponieważ, jak i on, mają mniej lub bardziej nierówno pod kopułami. Bije od niego szaleństwo.

I jakiż on jest dumny z siebie.
