Kałach wrote that innocent people died in the tragedy and criticized those who, in his opinion, exploited human death and events in Mazovia for political disputes. He considered turning someone else's suffering into a political spectacle to be a sign of moral decay. He added that a person who consciously takes the life of another human being deserves the harshest possible punishment and permanent isolation from society. He wished decency and shame to those trying, as he wrote, to gain political capital from the tragedy. #tragedia #moralność #szacunek (translated)

Jarosław Kaczyński wrote that the latest attack in a school, in which a person died, was in his opinion not accidental. He asked whether similar events could have been elements of Russia's hybrid war, pointing out that similar situations had already occurred in Lithuania, and that the inspiration — as he claimed — came from Moscow. He added that there are Russian portals encouraging young people to engage in such activities. Kaczyński expressed doubts about whether Donald Tusk's government was controlling the situation and accused Tusk and the current coalition of using tragedy and death to gain political support. He wrote that the safety of children, teachers, and school staff should be a priority, and that the state under Tusk had failed in this regard. #Bezpieczeństwo #WojnaHybrydowa #Polska (translated)

The spokesperson for the President of the Republic of Poland, Rafał Leśkiewicz, said on Radio Jedynka that the United States conducted a review of its military forces in Europe. Its results were to be included in a document that would first go to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth and likely be presented to Donald Trump around the turn of November and December. According to Leśkiewicz, a decision about the deployment of American forces in Europe would then be made. He added that Poland should strive to have a base located in the country and assessed that the statements of Prime Minister Donald Tusk suggesting a different course for the conversation between Trump and Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz did not help in this regard. Leśkiewicz stated that the president hoped until the end for the ruling party to prepare a solution in accordance with the constitution but did not want Poles to remain hostages of Tusk's politics. He accused the prime minister of using fuel prices in political disputes and attributed the responsibility for their high prices during the summer period to the ruling party. The spokesperson also argued that the laws vetoed by the president left several billion zlotys in the pockets of Poles, which they could manage in a difficult economic situation. Speaking about the president's visit to the Philippines, Leśkiewicz described it as the first historic visit of a Polish president to that country. He informed that Karol Nawrocki opened the Polish-Filipino business summit dedicated to the IT industry, organized since 2022, and delivered a lecture at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila. He added that the Philippines bought Polish Black Hawk helicopters and were to acquire more, and he regarded the development of economic cooperation with this country as important. The spokesperson said that the international actions of the president conducted since the beginning of the year aimed to support Poland's permanent presence in the G20 group, develop economic cooperation, attract capital, and facilitate Polish companies in obtaining contracts. He emphasized that Poland was interested in ensuring that the invitation to the G20 was not a one-time event. He pointed out that good relations with the United States were key, reminding that it was Donald Trump's decision that invited Poland to the group. He added that President Karol Nawrocki sought further allies, and the government should support these efforts. At the same time, he described the economic situation as a deepening crisis, indicating a high deficit and budget gap. #Polska #G20 #USA (translated)

Jarosław Królewski appealed for an end to frequent changes in the national team coaches and a focus on long-term work. He wrote that after the victories of players and coaches, there is excessive praise, while after defeats, the assessment tends to be too harsh. In his opinion, players should be developed also between training camps, and the staff should make use of data regarding their form, development, workloads, and suitability for specific roles. Królewski assessed that the coach should primarily be a leader and motivator, while tactics, analysis, and preparation should be a collaborative effort of the staff, supported by AI and Big Data. He also regarded the creation of a coherent development plan for the upcoming age groups of the national team, at least from U18 level, as important, along with regular cooperation between coaches, analysts, and those responsible for player development. He wrote that in Poland, long-term planning often gives way to immediate reactions: after victories, monuments are built, while after defeats, blame and successors are sought. He added that accountability for results is necessary, but it should not mean constantly starting over. He also appealed for a reduction in disputes and stated that someone else's defeat is not automatically one's own success. Królewski noted that despite the market, capital, talents, and potential of a country with nearly 40 million people, Polish companies with domestic capital tend to spend more on promotional pens than on long-term support for sports, education, technology, or culture. He added that the sporadic presence of Polish clubs in the Champions League is, in his opinion, a problem for the entire ecosystem, not just the owners, coaches, or players. He mentioned Wisła, Legia, Lech, and Raków, emphasizing that regular competition of Polish clubs at the highest European level should be a shared goal. #PiłkaNożna #Sport #Edukacja (translated)

The author of the entry wrote that the president of UOKiK has charged four companies from the Google capital group.

Szymon Pifczyk wrote that, in his opinion, three quarters of the phenomenon presented in the meme is due to the reluctance of Poles towards cities. He claimed that people who acquire even a small amount of capital often build houses on the outskirts. In Warsaw, this is often associated with an hour of commuting, while in smaller towns, residents do not encounter such a problem. According to Pifczyk, as a result, retirees first remain in the older buildings, and then the buildings become vacant and fall into disrepair. Young residents live far from the center, so — as he wrote — instead of going to the market, they prefer to drive their cars to a shopping park. He added that mainly students from nearby schools appear in the centers, who go for kebabs after classes. Pifczyk described the growing popularity of Pepco and Action stores in Poland as a phenomenon. He noticed that every third post on his mother’s Instagram shows a woman presenting purchases from these chains. He added that Pepco operates even in his village of 2,400 residents, and another store is located two kilometers away in Czerwionka. #Polska #miasta #społeczność (translated)

Piotr Cymcyk wrote that the last day showed how socially harmful media commentators' statements can be, including Gwiazdowski's, who compare the stock market to a casino. He argued that in a casino, the mathematical advantage belongs to the casino, while in the broad stock market, a longer horizon works in favor of the investor. As he argued, shareholders become co-owners of companies that conduct business, achieve profits, reinvest them, pay out dividends, and buy back their own shares. The growth of productivity in the economy and company profits, in his opinion, means that long-term investing in the broad market has a positive expected value. Cymcyk pointed out that one can behave like a gambler in the stock market, for example, by using excessive leverage, buying meme coins, or betting on options movements after the release of quarterly results, but that does not make the stock exchange itself a casino. He compared it to stating that the ability to drive a Ferrari into a family at a bus stop does not mean that the car is a killing machine. He also criticized the lack, as he wrote, of educational television material on investing a portion of savings in productive assets and using compound interest, while there is a frequent media presence of individuals whose statements he described as pseudo-wise. He added that Poland should build a strong capital market and increase its participation in it in order to catch up with the West economically, instead of being satisfied with current accounts at 0.1 percent. #giełda #inwestowanie #ekonomia (translated)

The Institute of Truth described Adam Hofman as a politician who was removed from PiS after the Madrid affair and ended his political career, but maintained contacts and knowledge of power mechanisms. According to the entry, Hofman later said that he "practiced under master Kaczyński." After leaving politics, Hofman co-founded the R4S agency. The Institute of Truth, citing CBA documents, reported that in just over a year, over 4.3 million PLN flowed into its account, including nearly 1.2 million PLN from state-owned companies and related entities. The matter was taken up by the CBA as part of Operation "Argon," and later publications emerged about the so-called Wrocław arrangement. The author noted that no charges were brought against Hofman. The entry stated that in 2020, the Hungarian company R4S entered into a contract with MOL worth 10,000 euros per month. The agency's team included former Lotos president Robert Pietryszyn, and its tasks were to involve analyzing Polish politics, identifying important individuals, and assisting in organizing meetings with government representatives. At the same time, the process of merging Orlen with Lotos was ongoing, and MOL ultimately bought 417 Lotos stations. According to the Institute of Truth, Hofman acknowledged that foreign companies benefited from his knowledge of political realities. The author also wrote that in 2020, BitBay, now Zondacrypto, became a client of R4S. According to findings by Wirtualna Polska, the agency was to conduct image activities prior to the "Superwizjer" report. In June, the prosecutor's office closed the proceedings regarding BitBay for the second time, but the National Prosecutor's Office deemed this decision premature and ordered the case to be reopened. The proceedings were closed again in 2022. The Institute of Truth emphasized that there is no evidence of R4S's influence on the decisions of the prosecutor's office. According to sources from Wirtualna Polska, on April 8, 2025, Hofman and Pietryszyn met in Monaco with Przemysław Kral, the head of Zondacrypto, and the conversation was supposed to concern assistance in connection with planned publications by "Superwizjer." Hofman denied making such an offer. The Institute of Truth compared this meeting with R4S's previous work for BitBay and wrote that the same people and contacts appeared in both cases. According to the author, it was these contacts that were the most valuable capital Hofman derived from PiS. #InstytutPrawdy #Polityka #Korporacje #KapitałPolityczny (translated)
