On Wednesday, Poland’s new government moved to seize control of the country’s publicly owned television, radio and news agency from loyalists to the Law and Justice (PiS) party, which lost power following the October 15 parliamentary election. Duda was a PiS member and is still loyal to the party.

I looked around and apparently it's not that bad - his term ends in 2025 (elections are to be held in May at the latest) so he'll be there for about half of new government's tenance.

Still not great but there's a chance for at least some time without sabotage from the other side. Here's hoping they make it count.
