Protests In Poland Break Out As Globalist President Takes Political Prisoners

Warsaw, Poland, saw a large gathering of protestors to protest their new pro-EU president’s arrest of two political prisoners.

Poland has been very conservative for the past 8-years, but the recent election of their current President, Donald Tusk, has seen much opposition from the right-wing opposition party.

The two right-leaning lawmakers who were arrested were allegedly arrested for abuse of power.

Many news sites report only tens of thousands of protestors, whereas other sources say as many as 300,000 people.

ABC News shares more on the story:

Poland’s president said Thursday he has started the process to once again pardon two politicians who were arrested earlier this week amid a bitter standoff between the new centrist government and the previous conservative administration.

The development came as tens of thousands of people with anti-government banners and Polish white-and-red flags gathered for a protest in front of the parliament building in Warsaw, which later developed into a peaceful march to the office of Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

The demonstration was organized by the former governing party, Law and Justice, which held power for eight years until last month and is closely aligned with President Andrzej Duda.

Law and Justice leader and lawmaker Jarosław Kaczyński, who was Poland’s most powerful politician during the party’s term in power, used his usual rhetoric to speak against Tusk’s new pro-European Union government.

“We must stop this power and, at the right moment (and) using the election ballot, change it in a way that will prevent it from ever coming back again, because it is not a proper Polish power,” Kaczyński said. “Polish power should defend Polish interests.”

The Associated Press News shares more on the story:

The protest was also against the arrests Tuesday of the two senior party members who served in the Law and Justice government, former Interior Minister Mariusz Kamiński and his former deputy, Maciej Wąsik. They were also stripped of their parliamentary mandates and immunity.

Kamiński and Wąsik were convicted of abuse of power for actions taken in 2007, when they served in an earlier Law and Justice-led government. Duda pardoned them in 2015, though legal experts argued the pardons weren’t legal because presidential pardons are reserved for cases that have gone through all appeals, which wasn’t the case then. Critics point to these contested pardons as an example of Duda disregarding Poland’s law and acting in the interest of Law and Justice.

In June, Poland’s Supreme Court overturned the pardons and ordered a retrial. Kamiński and Wąsik were convicted again and sentenced in December to two years in prison. Police on Tuesday arrested them while they were at Duda’s presidential palace, where they were apparently hoping for protection.

Duda long maintained that his 2015 pardons were legal, but on Thursday he said he was initiating clemency proceedings for the two men at the request of their wives. This time, Duda appealed to the justice minister, who is also the prosecutor general, to approve their pardons and to release the two men from prison while the decision is being made. He stressed he wanted everything to be done strictly according to Poland’s constitution and other laws.
