In the Sejm chamber, Deputy Minister Myrcha addressed the cases involving Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik, labeling both MPs as common criminals in the eyes of the parliament. The exchange featured a pointed question to the Minister about a provision empowering the Supreme Court to review a presidential pardon. The response suggested by the narrative is that no such provision exists in any legal act, prompting a swift, though witty, law-focused exchange led by Prof. Przemysław Czarnek, who delivered a brief legal critique and sprinkled humor about Myrcha.
On the following Wednesday, at PiS’s request, the Sejm received updated information alleging systematic violations of the Polish constitution and core political norms by the government led by Donald Tusk. The summary included claims of a forced takeover of public media, unlawful detention and deprivation of liberty of Mariusz Kamiński and Maciej Wąsik, and an attempt to dismiss the National Prosecutor through improper means. Myrcha referred to Kamiński and Wąsik as criminals and supported criticism of Bodnar’s stance toward the Public Prosecutor’s Office as part of the broader political dispute.
Czarnek made fun of the heads of the Justice Department
Citing Donald Tusk’s statement about applying the law according to his own interpretation, MP Czarnek offered a joke as a response. In the setup of the joke, a tipsy husband explains his whereabouts at two in the morning, and his spouse doubts his story. The minister reportedly treats his own explanation as the version he will stand by, a characterization that is used to describe his approach to legal matters in this public discourse.
Prof. Czarnek then provided a concise, if pointed, lecture on constitutional law aimed at Myrcha, delivered in a manner that his supporters might see as accessible and practical. The dialogue touched on the limits of government action and legal bases, with a reminder that government agencies operate strictly within the law. The discussion highlighted a disagreement over Article 7 and how it was quoted in public debate, suggesting that the speaker believes the government’s actions must align with statutory provisions and constitutional constraints.
The overarching message echoed the core principle that the state should not interpret legal provisions beyond what is expressly authorized. The insistence that what is not permitted by law is deemed unlawful framed the exchange as a defense of formal legality and procedural restraint within the rule of law.
