“Weird how if they are ‘just implementing a decision of the Supreme Court’ it occurs months/years after-the-fact when the new EU/globalist Tusk takes over. hmmmmm”

From what I can glean, the defendants were convicted of abuse of power in 2015 (thus, their case went through the Polish legal system). They subsequently appealed. Their own political party — and its candidate — came to power and that candidate became president, and pardoned the defendants. A challenge to that pardon was raised and the matter ended up at the Polish Supreme Court, which annulled the pardon and reinstated the case (pending the outcome of the appeal). A “Constitutional Tribunal” dominated by the defendants’ political party claimed the pardon was legal, and should not have been annulled. However, it seems the Polish Supreme Court trumps that tribunal, and the defendants were ultimately convicted last month and sentenced to jail time. They sought sanctuary within the Polish presidential palace.

Here are some articles I found on this matter:

No in Europe, constitutional courts are the superior courts, although such courts may be jurisdictionally constrained by another body which determines the constitutional courts competence to act (jurisdiction). The constitutional court determines the interactions between the three branches of government. In this case, it declared Duda's pardons valid, and the lower court ignored that ruling, so it will be reversed in short order. It looks like Tusk just wanted to arrest his political opponents, just like the commies and the Bidet Regime here.
