Björn Höcke wrote that since the beginning of his political career he has been in conflict with the media, courts, and opponents whom he referred to as left-wing terrorists. His family also suffers from this. At the same time, he pointed to Martin Sellner, who, according to him, has been even more severely affected. According to Höcke, Sellner was acquitted in Graz in 2018 of the charge of having formed a criminal organization. An investigation into the suspicion of involvement in a terrorist organization was closed in 2021; Sellner was also acquitted of the charge of incitement. Höcke wrote that Sellner has always spoken out against violence and that he has no other criminal offenses to his name. Höcke attributed the ban on his association in Austria to political reasons. He stated that the group is considered dangerous because of its attractiveness to intelligent young people. Höcke also reported that Sellner had been fined because he wore a T-shirt with the logo of the video game "Overwatch," even though neither the game nor the logo is prohibited. According to Höcke, Sellner cannot open an account at any financial institution: more than 125 banks have closed his accounts, and more than 380 have rejected his applications. Höcke wrote that since June 2019, Sellner has not been allowed to enter the United Kingdom indefinitely. He cannot visit the USA either, after his ESTA travel authorization was revoked in 2019. A three-year entry ban to Germany was suspended three months later; in the meantime, Sellner can no longer travel to France for that reason. Höcke described him as internationally ostracized. Despite these measures, he admires Sellner's humor and his dealings with the authorities, Höcke wrote. He called the demands of certain party friends for a ban on the IB in Germany shortsighted and despicable. In his view, such a procedure could set new precedents that would subsequently turn against one's own side and make love for one's homeland a crime. #Politik #Freiheit #Repression (translated)

Gr@ntlɘr wrote that hackers had published hundreds of thousands of emails from the AfD, which was presumably a criminal offense. According to research by JUNGEN FREIHEIT, fake Hitler messages were subsequently spread as well. The SPD and Greens had passed on these forgeries while simultaneously calling for a ban on the AfD. The CDU seemed to join in as well: a member of parliament had spread false reports in the state parliament of Baden-Württemberg. In conclusion, Gr@ntlɘr asked whether democracy could still be saved. #AfD #FakeNews #Demokratie (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann wrote that the CDU parliamentary group has decided to leave the room united during the election of the Prime Minister in Saxony-Anhalt. According to Kussmann, this is intended to prevent a member from voting according to their own conscience. She criticized the approach as childish and accused the CDU of primarily pursuing its own interests and insisting on the "firewall" to remain in power. Kussmann wrote that this approach would cause former CDU voters to turn away from the party. The responsible individuals, fearing the consequences of their previous wrong decisions, have lost their rationality and are resorting to tricks instead of corrections to continue the firewall policy that harms the party and the country, she claimed. She described the involved politicians as cowardly and insincere, stating that such politicians have no place in parliaments. #CDU #SachsenAnhalt #Politik (translated)
