The morning brought news of an internal PiS defeat in Poznań, where Kaczyński's preferred candidate lost party elections - the first such case in Poland. This development occurred amid continued processing of Trump's victory, with Polish media extensively covering his potential 24-hour peace plan for Ukraine.
By early afternoon, the government announced Prime Minister Tusk's temporary absence due to a medical procedure, generating speculation about his participation in upcoming Independence Day events. The timing raised questions given recent political developments.
The evening saw Kaczyński announce that PiS would reveal its presidential candidate "in the next few days," while tensions rose around the upcoming Independence March, with organizers warning about potential provocations. Reports emerged of wolf sightings in urban areas, particularly in Ustrzyki Dolne, where residents expressed safety concerns after dark.
