Wolfgang Kubicki accused the SPD and the Greens of deliberately breaking down the last taboos regarding organized left-wing extremism in collaboration with the Left. He wrote that both parties believed they could attain the chancellorship sooner or later by doing so. While there are repeated calls for a firewall against the AfD, the SPD and the Greens themselves are becoming part of a fire. According to Kubicki, Germany is to be polarized between a Red-Red-Green coalition and a völkisch front. The left-wing camp could thereby present itself as the last bastion against the political opponent in light of a possible AfD government and gain power. He referred to this as a dangerous plan worth fighting against daily. He stated that the goal should be prosperity for all instead of equality in misery. #Politik #Deutschland #Wohlstand (translated)

Florian Warweg wrote that the EU maintains the sanctions against the German journalist Hüseyin Dogru. According to Warweg, the EU Council does not consider the presumption of innocence to apply to Dogru, and press freedom is only granted to him in "good faith." The Council judges this itself, wrote Warweg, and described it as absurd. He also referred to his current article on the Dogru case. https://t.co/aXby9zecEX #Pressefreiheit #Rechtsstaat #Sanktionen (translated)
Wolfgang Kubicki wrote that the term "child marriage" trivializes serious abuse in his view. The victims are entitled to state protection and care; perpetrators do not belong in Germany. Their existing residence status under immigration law should be revoked. According to Kubicki, a state that does not clearly address such cases jeopardizes its foundation of freedom and the right of children to develop into free and self-determined individuals. He called it a catastrophe for society if too many men believed they could lead an untroubled life in Germany while considering such behavior acceptable. #Kinderschutz #Missbrauch #Menschenrechte (translated)
The author wrote that the EU sanctions against the journalist Hüseyin Doğru would not be lifted. He cited as justification that the presumption of innocence and freedom of expression would not apply because Doğru allegedly does not act "in good faith." #Meinungsfreiheit #Journalismus #EUSanktionen #DE (translated)
Simon Betschinger referred to a BILD report about the plans of the Berlin Left for faster expropriations and mentioned the average net cold rent in the Berlin housing stock of Vonovia, including Deutsche Wohnen, at 8.26 euros per square meter. He predicted that left-wing socialists would initially provide unqualified friends with well-paying jobs when managing the apartments, and rents would significantly increase within two years. At the same time, he criticized that left-wing voters believed the measures could alleviate the housing shortage. #BerlinerLinke #Mieten #Wohnungsnot (translated)

Yvonne Kussmann wrote that the response of the Hessian state government to an inquiry from the AfD states that there are a total of 4,495 prisoners in adult and youth detention as of March 31, 2026. Of these, 1,865 were of Christian faith (41.49 percent), including 841 members of Protestant churches, 712 Catholics, and 312 Orthodox churches. 1,487 prisoners were Muslim (33.08 percent). Compared to a Muslim population share of about 10 percent in Hesse, Muslims are thus approximately three times overrepresented in correctional facilities, Kussmann wrote. For the Rockenberg Juvenile Detention Center, she mentioned 131 prisoners, including 78 Muslims (59.54 percent), 17 members of Protestant, 16 Catholic, and two Orthodox churches. In Wiesbaden, there were 162 prisoners, including 79 Muslims (48.77 percent), 14 members of Protestant, 17 Catholic, and five Orthodox churches. Furthermore, nine prisoners were affiliated with Buddhism and twelve with Judaism across the state. 775 made no statement, for which Kussmann cited a proportion of 1724 percent; 328 were without denomination (7.30 percent). According to Kussmann, the state government does not want to specify the number of extremist or radicalization-relevant prisoners. She wrote that politically motivated crime is subdivided into five areas: For right-wing politically motivated crime (PMK), there is a medium double-digit number of prisoners, almost exclusively Germans; for left-wing PMK, there is a low single-digit number, exclusively Germans. For foreign ideology PMK, she mentioned a low double-digit number, including Syrians and others; for religious ideology PMK, a low to medium double-digit number, including Germans, Syrians, Afghans, Iraqis, and others. In the case of other classifications, the number is low double-digit and the prisoners are exclusively Germans. As examples of the listed crimes, Kussmann mentioned among others murder, attempted murder, terrorist organizations, genocide, rape, fraud, and driving without a license. #Hessen #Justiz #Gefängnisse (translated)
