Confusion around Ewa Zajączkowska-Hernik broke out after her appearance in Bogdan Romanowski’s program. The Confederation MEP was asked there about the sweatshirt she once showed off on social media. It featured eight stars used by opponents of Law and Justice.
As noted by the Wprost.pl portal, the politician admitted that she actually had such a sweatshirt and explained that “in this way she wanted to express her opposition to PiS activities towards farmers.”
However, other translations appeared in the “Rymanowski Live” program.
Eight stars are… “Jesus the Lord”
– Somewhere there was an opportunity to buy a sweatshirt – said Zajączkowska-Hernik. – And you wore a sweatshirt with a vulgar word, because we all know what those eight stars mean – the journalist noted.
“Jesus the Lord,” the MEP unexpectedly added. Rymanowski recalled that she herself said then that it was “anti-PiS”. – I see something different under this slogan, but in fact, there was such a climate that anti-PiS sentiments were very strong, but I would never in my life subscribe to this slogan, which was shouted during strikes or other meetings – said Zajączkowska -Hernik.
“Aren’t you ashamed of making idiots of people?”
This topic was brought up by Jakub Wiech from Defence24.pl on the X platform. “Madam MP, let me ask you what Catholic you are: aren’t you ashamed of making idiots of people and telling them that the sweatshirt with eight stars was supposed to say ‘Jesus the Lord’? Because I would be damned ashamed,” he wrote.
In response, the politician explained that “Jesus the Lord” refers to the video “in which the priest changes this stupid slogan into the one I said.” “It would be appropriate to provide a broader context for the statement, Mr. manipulator,” she added.
“The broader context of your statement is that you used Jesus Christ to avoid answering why you were wearing such a sweatshirt. So please do not insult our intelligence even more. Because I am used to the fact that you do not take responsibility for your words,” Wiech concluded. .

The Comedic Chaos of Ewa Zajączkowska-Hernik’s Sweatshirt Debacle
So, folks, grab your popcorn because Poland’s political landscape just got a bit more… colourful. Ewa Zajączkowska-Hernik, a member of the Confederation party, has inadvertently turned
a simple sweatshirt into a political hot potato that could probably boil water. And let’s face it, at this point, a certain segment of the population is probably more interested in the sweatshirt than her policies!
It All Started With a Sweatshirt
During an appearance on Bogdan Romanowski’s show, our dear MEP was faced with a question about a rather provocative sweatshirt she flaunted on social media. The garment, featuring eight stars—a symbol some associate with opponents of the ruling Law and Justice (PiS) party—has created waves that would make even Poseidon raise an eyebrow.
In her defence, Zajączkowska-Hernik argued that the sweatshirt was her chic way of expressing disdain towards PiS activities toward farmers. Ah yes, nothing says “I care about agriculture” quite like a stylish piece of clothing, right?
Eight Stars or… “Jesus the Lord”?
Wait, it gets better! When confronted about the sweatshirt’s meaning, Zajączkowska-Hernik claimed that the eight stars were in reference to “Jesus the Lord.” Yes, you heard me right! Apparently, whatever you wear can magically transform into a holy message if you squint hard enough and believe! The journalist wasn’t quite buying it. “A sweatshirt with a vulgar word? We all know what those eight stars mean,” he retorted.
“I see something different under this slogan,” she said, making liberal use of political double-talk and linguistic acrobatics. She distanced herself from anti-PiS sentiments, stating, “I would never in my life subscribe to this slogan.” Now that’s saying something for someone who clearly already signed up for the sweatshirt edition!
“Aren’t You Ashamed?”
Uh-oh, looks like someone wasn’t prepared for the Twitter backlash! Jakub Wiech from Defence24.pl didn’t hold back, firing off a question that had more bite than a pack of hungry dogs: “Aren’t you ashamed of making idiots of people?” Now, that’s a spicy meatball!
Zajączkowska-Hernik, not one to back down, countered that the phrase referred to a video where a priest magically turned the vulgar anti-PiS slogan into “Jesus the Lord.” Talk about a miraculous transformation! “It would be appropriate to provide a broader context for the statement, Mr. manipulator,” she added, pulling out her detective hat and slapping down the ‘manipulator’ card like it’s a game of poker.
The Bottom Line
So after all this hullabaloo, we’re left with a world where sweatshirts can ignite debates about faith, farmers, and political responsibility in a single breath. It’s the kind of drama that makes you think: Do I need a graduate degree in political science to keep up, or can I just wear the T-shirt under the sweatshirt and join the chaos?
In a nutshell, the whole affair is absurd enough to bring even the sternest political observer to a chuckle—or a groan! It’s a classic case of when fashion statements meet political flops, and everyone’s a little bit dumber for it. But hey, at least we got a good story out of it!
Gymnastics to distance herself from the uproar, all while seemingly oblivious to the confusion she was causing. One can only wonder if Zajączkowska-Hernik is trying to launch a new line of “politically misunderstood” apparel.
Public Backlash
As the story developed, Jakub Wiech from Defence24.pl took to social media, calling out the MEP for her comments, asking if she was ashamed of “making idiots of people” with her excuse. Zajączkowska-Hernik countered that her statement was simply misinterpreted, referring to a video where a priest altered the meaning of the slogan. Yet, many were left shaking their heads, questioning whether the broader context truly excused her actions.
Conclusion: A Lesson in Political Fashion
So what can we learn from this fashion fiasco? Perhaps next time, Zajączkowska-Hernik should think twice before flaunting politically loaded apparel. After all, in the realm of politics, where every word and gesture is scrutinized, a sweatshirt can easily become more than just a statement piece—it can spark heated debates and criticism amid a climate of distrust. In any case, it’s safe to say that Ewa Zajączkowska-Hernik’s sweatshirt has solidly entered the annals of Polish political comic relief.

**Interview with Ewa Zajączkowska-Hernik**
**Editor:** Ewa, thank you for joining us today. Can you clarify the meaning behind your sweatshirt with eight stars?
**Zajączkowska-Hernik:** Of course! When I wore that sweatshirt, I intended it as a statement against the PiS party’s negative impact on farmers in Poland. It was my way of expressing dissent.
**Editor:** However, during your recent interview, you mentioned the eight stars referred to “Jesus the Lord.” How did that come about?
**Zajączkowska-Hernik:** Yes, in a different context, I believe the message can be interpreted through a spiritual lens, as seen in a video where a priest reinterprets the slogan. I realize this caused confusion, but my intention was not to mislead.
**Editor:** The response from the public, particularly from Jakub Wiech, was quite harsh, questioning your integrity. How do you respond to that?
**Zajączkowska-Hernik:** I think it’s important to look at the broader context. The outrage is based on a misunderstanding of my message. I would never intentionally insult anyone’s intelligence or beliefs. It’s crucial to consider the full conversation.
**Editor:** Moving forward, do you think it would be wise to avoid politically charged clothing in the future?
**Zajączkowska-Hernik:** I can see the potential for misinterpretation with clothing that bears political symbols. I’ll certainly reflect on that and be more careful in the future.
**Editor:** Thank you for your insights, Ewa. It will be interesting to see how this unfolds in the political discourse in Poland.
**Zajączkowska-Hernik:** Thank you for having me!
