“America Present?”
Not quit, but demand!
I would like to answer to Mrs Ewa Nowakowska, author of the letter "Prezent from America" (ANGORA nr 33). Rafał Trzaskowski lost due to the fact that 1,361,913 people left work before lunch break, although it was not Friday. Politics is frequently a dead end job. Nobody forces you (yet) to go to elections. Just remember that (still) you have a chance to bet on little evil. The next 1 may not happen again. Policy sentiments are absolutely counterproductive.
Speaking of feelings. If your letter accidentally reads the voter of the current opposition, it's a fear to think about how happy he will be. They enjoyed 8 years of the President's regulation despite their losses and Poland's losses, and 10 years of the President, waiting indefinitely for the date of their case in court. The Trump voters are identical. The complications of tense connections are unexplored. The viruses of populism are just waiting to weaken the resilience of social tissue to grey everyday life. alternatively of resigning, you must powerfully request the essential changes from your MPs, or show regularly on the street as the Germans do, reacting to the aggressive brown AfD. The rulers must feel the breath of the voters on their necks, specified as the Polish evidence holder of the planet in free diving. Preferably immediately. And the supporters of democracy must draw strength from the achievements of the government, not resign in the event of its faults. Greetings, TADEUSZ
Who's Trump gonna sacrifice next?
What happened on August 15, 2025 in Anchorage, Alaska, will become past as 1 of the most shameful moments in American diplomacy. Not as a triumph of peace, but as a spectacle of the moral collapse of the United States. For the first time in history, at 1 table with the president of the United States, a man was planted against whom the war crimes are being investigated. He is accused by the global Criminal Court of deporting Ukrainian children – 1 of the most disgusting acts of the 21st century war. So far, no U.S. leader has done specified a thing.
None of the democratic planet accepted Hitler's honors. Trump has forgotten what past teaches. The Trump – Putin gathering did not bring any real benefits: no concrete agreements, no ceasefire, no guarantees for Ukraine. Trump accepted Putin as an equal, so that this warlord came out of the situation as a winner – he gave nothing, he promised nothing. I realize Ukrainians who feel betrayed. In Kiev, this gathering was rightly described as “stupid and worthless”. On social media, there are domineering memes: Trump and Putin march on a red carpet formed from Ukrainian bodies. Reactions in the United States besides talk for themselves: allegations of Trump's betrayal flow from the Democratic camp, and even from any Republicans. American politics lose contact with reality: the leader of the free planet accepts with the honors of a criminal!
Trump is seemingly confused – alternatively of fighting for Ukraine, he speaks a language that is closer to propaganda than diplomacy. From orange it becomes more red. As a woman, parent can't keep quiet. This gathering was not only diplomatic inaction – it was a moral sinking. And frankly, not elegance, not tactics – but cowardice and comfort. individual gave up on the values that the West boasted – freedom, responsibility, solidarity with victims. And in return? The illusion of peace that Putin will surely usage for his own purposes? If Trump gives Putin the sovereignty of Ukraine so easy today, the question arises: which country will be next? possibly not yet Poland, due to the fact that we are large and strong, but countries like Georgia, Armenia or even Baltic countries. Who knows? If past is to be a teacher of life, this chapter will be remembered as a warning.
In the face of evil, diplomacy is not adequate unless morality is behind it. Being strong means standing against an aggressor on the side of truth. Especially erstwhile people were inactive dying on the day of the talks. ELA
Miracle on the Vistula – the miracle of Vincent, not Joseph
O Piłsudski utilized to talk in Poland in almost spiritual tone. Marshal – savior of the homeland, creator of independence, superb strategist. specified images are recorded in textbooks, at school academy, in tv historical reconstructions. But if we effort to look into the facts, the full legend starts shaking like an old ladder car. It was Piłsudski who in the spring of 1920 moved to Kiev with the war of prevention. There was a romanticist fantasy: that Poles with the aid of Ukrainian allies would forge a federation that would halt Russian imperialism. She was besides typical of Piłsudski megalomania – here's the marshal, chief, savior, enters the function of the demiurge of Europe. There were even the first successes: Kiev's business was rewarded like a large victory. Piłsudski walked proudly, the press wrote praise hymns.
After a fewer weeks, the dream was over. The Bolsheviks hit with momentum, moving back Polish troops to Warsaw. Then it turned out that the "genial strategist", alternatively of taking full responsibility, gave the state control to Prime Minister Vincent Witos. This guy from Wierzchosławic abruptly had to take over the function of a helm at the time of the top attempt. He formed the Government of National Defense, called on citizens for help, consolidated national efforts. These were not romanticist visions, but everyday labor: the organization of supplies, the mobilisation of society, the enlistment of all forces to defend the country, regardless of political divisions.
That's what the occupation was. Yes, the army was victorious on the battlefield – but this army could only fight due to the fact that the state did not fall apart. He utilized to talk about “the miracle” as if the Hand of Providence had reversed the destiny of war. Meanwhile, the miracle had a name: Vincenty Witos. The man who kept his cool at the crucial moment. What did Piłsudski do after all? He took a paper of resignation from Witos, which he returned to him. Witos kept a copy of this letter, but later the paper was stolen by “unknown perpetrators”. A convenient version was included in the story: the marshal came out victorious from the rehearsal, he saved Warsaw, he stopped the Bolsheviks. Not Witos, not nameless peasants who took arms, not women sewing dressings – only him, Józef Piłsudski. specified a painting was demanded by Piłsudski himself, who was a master of autocreation, a troublemaker in politics, who was able to base his own story from failure. He could impose a communicative about his heroism. For him, past was the scene on which he always wanted to play the lead role.
It is worth noting that military theorists emphasize that the plan of maneuvering from the Pig, attributed to Piłsudski, was not a discovery, but alternatively a repetition of known concepts. Yet, the actual leader is known by his ability to take responsibility. Piłsudski gave the helm in a minute of crisis, Witos kept this rudder. He was the real hero of the Miracle of the Vistula. The remainder – it is only the skillful propaganda of Pilsudski. This is why on August 15th there is besides a celebration of the Feast of Peasants – next to the People's Day the most crucial celebration in the folk movement – established in June 1936. possibly due to the fact that Witos witnessed Piłsudski's cowardice in the face of a deadly threat erstwhile he became Prime Minister again in 1926, Piłsudski has done his most shameful deed in life: the May assassination, which we will remind – hopefully – on a hundredth anniversary.

Set-up and Kidder art
President Karol Nawrocki in his lush résumé, which is better forgotten, mentions that he took part in "different modules of noble, masculine hand-to-hand combat; there was quite a few this in my life." And these fights are just kibboli fights. The president has forgotten, and I think he pretends not to know that this kind of bullying, violent fight, which frequently ends in serious injuries to participants, is simply a violation of the law. The experience of these fights has unfortunately been transferred by the president to the Palace. Just after his swearing in, he began to sign publically proposals for laws that do not take into account the state's financial condition inherited from “holding power in the State of the Laws”. This is the beginning of a pre-announced fight against Prime Minister Donald Tuski, whom he considered authoritatively the worst chief of government after the transformation (...).
So we already had the beginning of these late known "statutes". Soon, the president, with the engagement of his colleagues from the Chancellery and the bulteriers and piaryists of the PiS, played with the Prime Minister and utilizing American aid, deprived him of the anticipation of partial consultation with president Donald Trump on Russian aggression issues in Ukraine. This alternatively primitive intrigue, in fact against the Prime Minister, in which a serious U.S. office was involved, is not only a "status", it is an act to the detriment of Poland. But to do so, 1 needs to have cognition and experience, not only to preach empty slogans about patriotism, nation, white-red and large Poland. And so the Polish-Polish war that has lasted for respective years, involving not only the major parties, but besides the presidents who should represent the majesty of the Republic, is continued to the detriment of the state.
It is worth recalling that Karol Nawroc ki in the presidential run on 7 December 2024 indicated his precedence of action in the future: “The conclusion of the Polish-Polish war on ideological matters is for me the thing I care about.” If it doesn't substance now, then we gotta ask what happened that the president changed his head and started a war with specified intensity...? "Stakes" specialists would not be themselves if they did not apply their favourite game. erstwhile the Prime Minister appeared at the Palace, he had to wait a fewer minutes to meet the President, due to the fact that 1 organization wanted to show superiority, not realizing that the principles of savoir-vivre in the contacts of the most crucial people in the country (the Marshal of the Sejm, the president of the Council of Ministers and the Marshal of the Senate) were more crucial than their own pride. In this case, the guest should be personally expected to host and welcome before entering the building or in the lobby. This can be described as good manners, cognition of customs, social forms and basic courtesy rules, but all of this was lacking during this crucial meeting. Here it is worth recalling the very crucial words, not only in the diplomacy of Israel Singer: “The insult done by the weaker 1 does not contact the victim, but the stalker.”
President Andrzej Duda was studying all the time, possibly the successor will besides start learning from smarter than him. president Karol Nawrocki as a gdanszczan should besides know the word "kindersztuba", which means social gratification and savoir-vivre rules raised from the household home. It is besides the ability to behave tactfully and in accordance with accepted social standards. Here I inform against copying the attitudes and actions of US president Donald Trump! Another week of the President's word of office passed, and a fewer "status" appeared and this Polish-Polish war is not ending. The next battles of boys in short short shorts will most likely appear: about the bill, seats, judges' nominations, about changes in the Constitution of Poland. This could be a disaster for all of us. Just like 76 years ago, a tiny war over the rolling stock of the author's text with a friend in kindergarten. 1 of the warriors with a cut lip ended up standing by and had a scar for the remainder of his life. Make it a punch line. Andrzej Lorenzo
Batyric blasting
As far as I could realize someway the alleged media hammering of all crucial and little crucial politicians with the question: “Why will there be no 1 from Poland?” at the table with the “voluntary coalition” at D. Trump on the night of 16th to 17th August, it is simply a continuation, after the end of the gathering with Trump, this media hammering has become so irresponsible and tiring that it no longer fits any canons of decency. It shows that it is Batyr's swinging and in general its "politics" in specified an crucial substance it becomes hideous, dirty and devoid of imagination, to the delight not only of Lavrow with the CCCP shirt, but besides of Putin himself, who, for changing the subject in the media, threw us a drone lure towards Warsaw. And since this 1 broke down along the way, after the detonation he only broke a fewer shafts and "was smoking in the corn."
The effect? We will learn about the course of key talks about peace in Ukraine from the second hand. And the reasons for the absence of our policy – Tuska or Batyra/Nawrocki – are, in my opinion, two. The first – according to the sanctioned division of roles in NATO, the UN and in relations with the US, Poland is represented by the President, presenting a position prepared by the government. These rules were confirmed by both gentlemen at a gathering in private. Second – this is what Batyr/Nawrocki acted on Wednesday 13 August. Trump in the presence of another heads of European states during the video conference, after the successful pinning of Tusk, due to the fact that he was the 1 to participate.
That's erstwhile Batyr/Nawrock didn't like Trump anymore. He, Batyr, does not feel either diplomacy or Anglo-Saxon convenances of conversation. His weak English for Trump sounds naughty. He taught him and his surroundings, giving good advice on how to talk to Putin, how to realize Russia and what to do next. And already a lecture on our martyrdom is besides perceived by the United States as a weakness and any sick care of failure.
It prevailed that Trump's surroundings did not intend to invitation Batyr/Nawrocki, due to the fact that it is better to have a vassal at hand due to the fact that it will be necessary? And what kind of chess device was made to pin Donald Tusk out of Wednesday's video conference? For our part, reliable A. Bielan together with M. Arzycz managed to deal with the 3 Trump officials already tried. They got Batyr a image of Trump during the election campaign. This is Sebastian Gorka, a conservative publicist, in Trump's erstwhile government was his advisor, and now he's liable for the fight against terrorism. Vince Haley, current chief of the presidential interior policy council who had previously written Trump speeches, and Sizie Wiles, chief of staff of Trump's election campaign. These 3 may have had an influence on a September visit, after which nothing crucial is expected... Yours sincerely. J.K.
Memory
Good morning. Teacher's Day is coming up. I went to simple school in the 1960s. I remember a Polish teacher. Her name was Mr. Dorożynska; unfortunately, I do not remember her name. She came to school wearing a navy apron with a white collar. I think she was inactive studying during the partitions. She amazed us, students, quoting from the memory of the fragments of “Mr Tadeusz”. While discussing school readings, she encouraged us to justice heroes. What would you do if you were him? Why do you think he did good or bad? In a word, she taught her own thinking. And sometimes “enter” the psyche of a given character. She's the 1 I owe the ability to think for myself, learn from failure and success. It's besides accepting a man with another thoughts than mine. She was careful in all way. I remember 1 year on vacation she made me practice calligraphy. I've been practicing! I wouldn't dare not. It's her I remember most, and it's her I remember and tell my sons and grandchildren. That's it. I warmly greet ANGORY's editorials. TERESA
Farewell in the Contra
I took the news with disbelief that my favourite Razor Master, ed. Marek Palczewski, is saying goodbye to ANGORA, but “he hopes that not forever.” We do not know the circumstantial reason for saying goodbye, but I shoot that the Master Razor simply burned out, possibly not professionally, but in the series “The Razor after the Media” presented by him.
I have always treated your thoughts with irony, for whatever man he may be, with his baggage of experience behind him, he has a shaped view. And you have them. And so do I. For 64 episodes you cut the PiS equally; Duda, Kaczyński, and late Braun and Mentzen, and above all Nawrocki, are your evil heroes, while Tusk and Trzaskowski are precisely the ideals. The fresh elections of the president of the Republic have shown the political scene to the observers, how powerfully our homeland is divided, and there is no indication that reconciliation can occur. The Polish-Polish war will proceed and sometimes will be very fierce.
What more insightful journalists will even cesspool to get their opponent's teeth. I am going to bet that neither you, nor I, nor even 90 percent of voters knew Karol Nawrocki but for the fact that he was head of the Institute of National Memory and doctor of historical sciences by education. present we know more about him than he did about himself, so many patches were sewn on him, so much disgusting hatred was thrown out (even the Prime Minister went to Jack Muranski to deliver hooks to Nawrocki). They bounced like echoes and with double force increased Nawrock's chances. You, Mr Marku Palczewski, were 100% certain that Trzaskowski would win, not only you, but the full ruling camp without exception. Democracy has it in common that the rulers choose those who will regulation them. In 2023, the current coalition with Tusk was elected and in 2025 president Nawrocki was elected.
Dear Mr. Mark, now that you are resting from the pen, delight study to the PKW and on a random basis or preferably all votes will number (Wałęsa, Miller, Gierty and Bodnar have already volunteered to cooperate, who is unemployed). There's a chance Trzaskowski's gonna win, and that would be balls! Go ahead, Mr. Mark Palczewski. Hope dies last, but hope is besides the parent of fools. That's it. ENDEGORY, Radzewice
PS I'm left with a column of Szpak, Martenko and Cucumber, which is the same note, but according to editorial views, and I, a private, frequently stand across them. That's who I am, and I can't aid it. I call stupidity stupidity.
