Markus Haintz 2d

Markus Haintz wrote about the account termination of Flavio von Witzleben, stating that almost all savings banks are state-owned banks, but often behave like red-green NGOs. He mentioned that the absurd reasons for termination from his point of view included small donations, cash deposits, as well as a PayPal and a Revolut account. According to Haintz, von Witzleben's lawyer had received the savings bank's response to the lawsuit. According to von Witzleben, the savings bank had cited an unusually high number of small donations. With 199,000 channel subscribers, these were apparently inexplicable for the Karlsruhe savings bank, which is why it suspected money laundering. #Banken #Kontokündigung #Geldwäsche (translated)

Australischer Austauschstudent 4d

The Australian exchange student wrote that, in his opinion, Lars Klingbeil could easily eliminate the contributions to the United Nations and the EU, as well as expenditures for NGOs, the citizen money, and development aid. Instead, according to him, the government burdens the citizens more with a sugar tax in order to close existing billion-dollar deficits despite trillion-dollar debts. SPD and CDU thus set their priorities, he wrote. #Politik #Deutschland #Regierung (translated)

Dr. Dr. Rainer Zitelmann 4d

Dr. Rainer Zitelmann devised a scenario he refers to as the "script of horror": Manuela Schwesig would take over the SPD leadership in December and allow the coalition to collapse after a grace period. New elections could then take place at Easter 2027, with Schwesig potentially performing as successfully as she did in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. According to Zitelmann, the AfD could remain at around 30 percent, while the CDU/CSU under Chancellor Merz would likely drop to about 17 percent instead of the current 19 percent. Together, that would amount to 47 to 49 percent; however, since the CDU would not want to coalition with the AfD, a blockage would arise. The SPD could rise to over 20 percent with Schwesig as "Merkel 2.0," compared to the current 13 percent. She would position herself as an opponent of the AfD and promise social justice without social reforms or cuts. According to this scenario, the wealthy should bear the costs; media, trade unions, and NGOs would massively support Schwesig. After the election, Schwesig could, according to Zitelmann, negotiate with the Greens and the Left, to whom he attributed 15 and 11 percent respectively. A red-green-red coalition would therefore exceed 46 percent. If that were not enough, a split CDU/CSU could join as another junior partner. Zitelmann wrote that the Union is eager to continue governing and would secure positions and subordinate itself for that purpose. https://t.co/Ldys88KFJ4 #Politik #Deutschland #Wahlen (translated)

Apollo News 4d

Apollo News reported that the federal government does not want to continue previous overviews of the financing of non-governmental organizations, as these are not necessary for the management of funding.

Christine Anderson 5d

Christine Anderson asked how rejected asylum seekers, who spoke little or no German, could appeal their decisions. She wrote that this could only be done with the help of a large, possibly subsidized NGO complex that undermines departures and paralyzes the courts. https://t.co/oM2KO4AscU https://t.co/YGdavBID9p #Asylrecht #Integration #NGOs (translated)

Andreas Rosenfelder 5d

Andreas Rosenfelder wrote that while entire industries were collapsing, the area around asylum issues was growing. Vacant hotels were becoming lucrative as a result, and state-owned companies and NGOs were also benefiting. He estimated the total costs of German migration policy since 2016, citing research from Spreeathen, at a minimum of 400 billion euros. #Asylpolitik #Migration #Deutschland (translated)

Björn Harms 7d

Björn Harms announced that his new book "The Asylum Complex" would be available in stores the following day; he already had some freshly printed copies in hand. He wrote that the book includes, among other things, a detailed overall calculation of the asylum costs of past years and an overview of the number of asylum accommodations in Germany. According to him, the federal government does not know this number. According to Harms, the book also addresses real estate companies and hoteliers who earn millions by renting to the state, as well as home operators, welfare associations, lawyer networks, and state companies that benefit from the growing market or mass immigration. He announced interviews with insiders from the social industry and the real estate market, as well as insights into asylum NGOs, refugee councils, and million-euro funding programs from the EU and the federal government. Additionally, the book aims to address legal questions related to the topic of asylum. Harms requested feedback on the book. #Asylkomplex #Buchneuerscheinung #Asylpolitik (translated)

Techaktien 7d

Techaktien wrote that Lars Klingbeil takes something away from the workers and distributes it, among others, to people whom the author described as unwilling to work or as social fraudsters, as well as to criminals, abroad, and to NGOs. Furthermore, he accused Klingbeil of serving himself. Techaktien labeled this as class struggle against the working class, accused the SPD of plundering Germany, and stated that the CDU and CSU were complicit in this. https://t.co/mFZl9dRmxn #Klassenkampf #Arbeiterklasse #SPD (translated)

Vincze Loránt 2w

The author argued that Europe should remain open while guarding against what they described as Islamist entryism exploiting EU funding and institutions. They cited €7.4bn in funding for more than 12,000 NGOs and said it had been distributed amid serious transparency gaps. The author said they had called for stronger scrutiny, cooperation among law-enforcement agencies and zero tolerance for abuse.

Waldemar Hartmann 2w

Waldemar Hartmann criticized the reactions to the election of Tobias Rausch as the president of the state parliament in Saxony-Anhalt. The federal SPD demonstrated with Boris Pistorius, whom Hartmann referred to as the "war minister," at Bebel-Platz and sang the national anthem. The CDU is looking for "undercover agents" within its own ranks, while NGOs warned and threatened with actions, he wrote. Hartmann saw the actual political scandal in Berlin: SPD and Greens continue to talk with Die Linke about a common political future. He mentioned antisemitism, similarities with criminal clans, and connections to terrorist organizations. The federal SPD points to the responsibility of the state association, while the Greens remained duplicitous, Hartmann wrote. Their position contradicts the importance that the green-left milieu otherwise attributes to the issue of stance. #Demokratie #Politik #Deutschland (translated)

Dr. David Lütke 2w

Dr. David Lütke wrote that the mutual attacks of Russia and Ukraine were burdening the environment with large amounts of pollutants. In his view, more CO₂ taxes, a speed limit, and lawsuits by state-funded NGOs would fix everything. In conclusion, he thanked Germany. https://t.co/ZOEHqv4NhR #Umweltschutz #RusslandUkraine #CO2Steuer (translated)
