Adam Mazguła compared the contemporary political situation to the Targowica Confederation, which — as he wrote — contributed to the partitions of Poland. He reminded that it was created by magnates and influential nobles demanding greater privileges, bishops unwilling to finance the army, and Empress Catherine, called to defend their interests. He considered the contemporary symbols of betrayal to be Russian agents operating in PiS and Confederation, as well as the bishops supporting them. He also wrote that a new element is the involvement of an American politician whom he referred to as the "orange master of the world." According to Mazguła, Bielan and Nawrocki's office were trying to persuade him to overthrow the Polish government. Mazguła asked why — as he put it — the "official enemy of Poland" had not yet been arrested. He described these actions as an attack on the legal government and portrayed law enforcement as intimidated puppets or agents of an organized crime group associated with Ziobro. #PrawdąWOczy #WPoczuciuOdpowiedzialności #TarczaWolnościSłowa #BronimyKonstytucji #ŻołnierzGorszegoSortu #PrawaCzłowieka #WolnośćSłowa #ŚwieckośćPaństwa #PrawaKobiet #BronimyKonstytucji #WolnośćSłowa #PrawaCzłowieka (translated)
