The world is reacting to the scandal caused by the controversial actions of Magdalena Sroka’s commission, which, with police assistance, attempted to detain former Polish Justice Minister Zbigniew Ziobro. “This is just the latest act of political policing ordered by Donald Tusk against his opponents,” read one of the many comments on the incident.
Since early morning, Polish police sought to detain Ziobro to bring him before Sroka’s parliamentary commission investigating the use of Pegasus spyware. At the time, Ziobro was giving an interview on TV Republika when officers arrived at the headquarters of the Free Speech Zone. The politician voluntarily approached the police and was escorted to the commission’s location, only to find that the commission members had fled the hearing. Instead, they hastily passed a resolution requesting a 30-day detention order against him.
The incident has sparked widespread commentary, both domestically and internationally.
International Reactions: “Communism, Political Persecution”
Jack Posobiec, an American commentator, reacted by simply posting “COMMUNISM” on X.com in response to reports by TV Republika’s program director, Michał Rachoń.
Romanian politician George Simion strongly condemned the police action:
“I strongly condemn the way in which the Polish police acted earlier today to detain @ZiobroPL. Former Justice 🇵🇱minister was live at @RepublikaTV when the police raided. Just the latest political police act ordered by @donaldtusk against his opponents. Political persecution!”
British commentator Tommy Robinson also weighed in, stating on his profile:
“Globalist puppet Tusk is trying to force Poland back into communism. He needs to go!”
Romanian journalist Iosefina Pscal called the situation “unbelievable,” adding:
“Tusk is the male version of Ursula [von der Leyen].”
Meanwhile, the U.S.-based organization Republicans for National Renewal issued a statement condemning the event:
“We totally condemn this violation by the liberal, Biden-backed Polish regime against patriotic conservatives in Poland.”
They further warned:
“The United States should condition its extensive assistance to Poland on respect for the pro-Trump opposition.”
The controversy surrounding Ziobro’s detention is intensifying, drawing strong criticism from conservative voices worldwide, who see it as a politically motivated crackdown orchestrated by Poland’s ruling government.

A mid-air collision near Washington, D.C., sent an American Airlines plane and a military helicopter into the Potomac River, with search efforts ongoing.
Passenger Plane and Military Helicopter Crash Into Potomac
A devastating mid-air collision occurred near Washington, D.C., when an American Airlines Bombardier CRJ 700, carrying 64 people, crashed into a U.S. Army UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter during its final approach to Reagan National Airport. The tragic accident, which happened at 8:47 PM local time, sent both aircraft into the icy Potomac River. Emergency teams from Washington, Maryland, and Virginia rushed to the scene, deploying divers and rescue boats. While 18 bodies have reportedly been recovered, authorities have yet to confirm an official death toll. Freezing water temperatures of 2°C significantly diminish survival chances, and recovery efforts are expected to take days.

The Pentagon launched an immediate investigation into the accident, confirming that the Black Hawk was on a routine training mission. Surveillance footage from the Kennedy Center captured the moment of impact, followed by a fiery explosion. President Donald Trump expressed condolences and praised first responders. This marks the first major U.S. commercial airline disaster since 2009. Search teams have recovered both black boxes, which could provide crucial details on what led to the crash. With Reagan National Airport temporarily shut down, the nation mourns this avoidable tragedy while awaiting answers from aviation authorities.

A painting bought for $50 may be a lost Van Gogh masterpiece worth $15M. Experts reveal findings, but official authentication is still pending.
A Stunning Discovery
A painting purchased for just $50 at a Minnesota garage sale has been identified as a long-lost work by Vincent van Gogh. Art experts from LMI Group International conducted a four-year investigation, spending over $30,000 to verify its authenticity. Their findings, detailed in a 450-page report, suggest that Elimar was painted in 1889 while Van Gogh was in a French psychiatric hospital—where he also created The Starry Night. The report highlights stylistic features consistent with the artist’s work, an analysis of materials used, and even DNA testing of red hairs found on the canvas, believed to belong to Van Gogh.
Despite LMI’s extensive research, the Van Gogh Museum in the Netherlands has yet to confirm the painting’s authenticity. Until then, Elimar remains a fascinating mystery. If authenticated, its value is estimated at $15 million. LMI plans to present their findings to a panel of Van Gogh scholars and art dealers, hoping to secure official recognition for what could be a major art world discovery.

In the modern, fast-paced world, the idea of “slow living” is gaining momentum as people seek to escape the hustle and bustle of big cities. Poland, with its rich history, breathtaking landscapes, and charming small towns, offers many idyllic spots where life flows at a slower, more deliberate pace. Places like Kazimierz Dolny, Lanckorona, and Supraśl are perfect examples of how one can rediscover the beauty of simplicity and reconnect with both nature and culture.
Lanckorona: A Village Frozen in Time
Nestled in the hills near Krakow, Lanckorona feels like stepping into a different era. Its wooden cottages, dating back to the 19th century, line quiet streets that lead up to a hilltop with the ruins of a medieval castle. The town’s charm lies in its simplicity and unspoiled beauty.
Lanckorona is also known for its warm, welcoming community. Locals take pride in preserving their traditions and heritage, often hosting festivals and events where visitors can learn about Polish folk music, dances, and crafts. The town is a popular destination for those seeking peace and inspiration, and its quaint cafés and guesthouses provide the perfect setting for relaxation.
The months-long debate surrounding the illegal Pegasus investigative commission reached a critical point today. Despite lacking legal grounds, the police attempted to detain Zbigniew Ziobro and bring him before the commission’s session.
Failing to find him at home, officers entered TV Republika’s headquarters, where the former minister was giving an interview to journalist Michał Rachoń. The blatant actions, carried out in front of live cameras, marked not just a political maneuver but a direct attempt to intimidate independent media and government opponents.
“The police officers are victims in this situation because they were ordered to carry out a task that, in light of the Constitutional Tribunal’s ruling, is unlawful,” the former minister of justice stated on air.
In response to this unprecedented intervention, TV Republika’s leadership, led by President Tomasz Sakiewicz, attempted to explain to the officers that their presence at the station was a violation of media independence. The station’s management demanded that the police present a document justifying their entry into Republika’s premises.
Despite these arguments and appeals, the police returned to TV Republika once again. Before surrendering to them voluntarily, the former minister explained his reasons for refusing to appear before the commission.
“I will not appear voluntarily because the Constitutional Tribunal has issued a ruling, and I uphold the law,” he declared.
Ultimately, the former minister left the station voluntarily, accompanied by police officers.
Scenes reminiscent of a police state unfolded in front of the cameras—scuffles, journalists shouting in protest, and the officers’ relentless determination to carry out a politically motivated order.
“Violence and law violations have become the standard for this government. This government is behaving like in the worst times of communism,” the former minister stated just minutes before being taken into custody.
The political landscape of the West is shifting, and with Donald Trump’s recent victory in the U.S. elections, conservatives worldwide need to pay attention. Matt Schlapp, a strong voice for American conservatism, is sounding the alarm for Europe: wake up before you fall into the same trap as the U.S. under leftist rule.
The Green Deal and Its Consequences
During a discussion on TV Republika on global conservatism, Schlapp didn’t hold back when addressing the harmful effects of progressive policies, especially the so-called “Green Deal.” He made it clear that rising energy prices are a direct result of this radical environmental agenda. But it’s not just about money. According to him, the real goal is to break apart the traditional family and weaken religious faith. “The people behind this agenda don’t like faith because it challenges their view of power. America was saved because God was strong,” he said. “If Trump hadn’t won, America would’ve been finished.”
The Leftist Assault on Society
Schlapp painted a dire picture of what happens when the left is in charge, warning that Europe could soon experience the same chaos as America’s major cities. “Our cities look terrible now,” he said bluntly. He blamed progressive policies for causing social division, opening the floodgates to illegal immigration, and crippling law enforcement. “We changed election laws, and now you don’t even need an ID to vote. Because of that, our cities are now run by radical leftists.” He also pointed to the defunding of the police after the Black Lives Matter protests, saying, “We let 15 million people in, and now we have serious problems.” His message to Europe was clear: “Listen to us. Don’t let NGOs change your laws the way they changed ours.”
The Globalist Agenda and Its Tactics
When asked about abortion, Schlapp pointed out that the left uses the same playbook worldwide. “They come in and tell you that you need abortion, that you need expensive energy,” he said. “You have to push back. This is a well-organized movement using the same strategies everywhere.”
The Fear of an Uncontrollable Trump
Schlapp also addressed the attacks against Trump, particularly the claim by the current Poland’s Prime Minister Donald Tusk that Trump was a Russian agent. “The real reason they attack him is simple: they’re scared because they can’t control him,” Schlapp explained. “Trump always does what he believes is right for the country. No one expected him to win in 2016, and now he’s done it again. That terrifies them.”
According to Schlapp, leaders like Poland’s Andrzej Duda and Italy’s Giorgia Meloni understand what’s happening and are pushing back against leftist control. “These leaders have a vision, and they listen,” he said. “I believe we’re going to see a major shift, just like in the U.S.”
