I fear that the AfD will soon have a new scandal on its hands. Due to illegal party financing. Strandkorbgate - "Inside CDU" - that is practically direct party advertising for the AfD. And to all who asked: No. We neither conceived nor financed it. (translated)
Lauterbach comments on the rising social contributions for young people with the words "sniff." Amthor has beach chairs pushed back and forth in the Chancellor's office. The unserviced and retired Spahn calls on young people with the words "Your homeland needs you" to take up arms. Merz calls on the Germans to stop being so "whiny and plaintive." What distinguishes our democracy from feudalism again? (translated)
I made it clear in the Bundestag how far parts of the political elite have now distanced themselves from the reality of many citizens. Amthor's beach chair on the Chancellor's rooftop terrace is symbolic of this. (translated)
To be honest, inside the CDU: Amthor should be fired. Not because of the beach chair. But because of the blatant insensitivity around it. (translated)
What's going on in a state minister's mind in the chancellor's office when he has a beach chair delivered for the large rooftop terrace of his office, proudly standing in front of running TV cameras? And this kid is part of the political leadership of our country? Seriously? (translated)
"My name is Philipp, Philipp Amthor, and I have the license to buy a beach chair." Yes, it is already like living as a feudal noble at the expense of other people. But eventually, we'll throw you out. Promised! (translated)
The symbolism behind the beach chair that Philipp Amthor ordered for the Chancellery is significant because it reveals his understanding of the office. A beach chair belongs on vacation. For Amthor, the Chancellery is a residence. Essentially, the CDU politician acts as if the German Empire is still intact: After a job well done, Minister Amthor collapses into the beach chair and lets his gaze wander over the botany. This, in turn, fits very well with Chancellor Merz, who spoke about Brazil and a certain "place" there as if he were dressed in a tropical hat and leather boots. In short: These powerful individuals can constantly be sensed in their tone and demeanor that they do not see themselves as servants of the public good at all. Rather, they imagine themselves as postmodern leaders of the Empire, who hysterically invoke their supposed enemies both internally and externally instead of using their mandate to tackle the problems for whose resolution they were elected.

+++ Please spread this further +++ The #NIUS investigative team has succeeded in viewing thousands of pages of confidential files and documents from the interior authorities of the state of Lower Saxony and evaluating police records. What is revealed there is a system that has completely collapsed and is simultaneously being sabotaged from within. Employees of the responsible deportation authorities have been identified, who are simultaneously working in their free time for anti-deportation #NGOs. Or individuals responsible for naturalization, while also working in the anti-deportation industry. To get an idea of which deportable offenders are either in prison or at large in Lower Saxony and are not being deported, only Afghan individuals are listed in the attached link as an example. So just a tiny glimpse of the German and extra-legal reality that the #CDU, #SPD, and #DieGrünen have created for this once so safe country. https://t.co/afdodP7qFM #Klingbeil #Merz #Bundestag #Illner #Strandkorb #Spahn #Hamas #Ferret (translated)
In the name of the Berlin democratic basic order, I demand beach chairs on the balcony for each individual member of the Bundestag! (translated)
The CDU is out of the state parliament, the chancellor has an approval rating of 11 percent, the economic outlook is poor. And State Minister Philipp Amthor? He has a beach chair delivered to the chancellery. (translated)
Philipp Amthor treats himself to a beach chair for his chancellery office for his own promotion. This guy is so out of touch, he doesn’t feel anything anymore. (translated)
I have no regard for cheap Amthor-bashing. But when you watch a somewhat overly affected parody of the Bonn Republic philosophizing about beach baskets – and radiating zero life experience – and right after that, the next PR video from Brussels hits you, then you are simply completely radicalized. No one can be captured by Sunday civility speeches anymore. (translated)
One can argue whether one should have a beach chair delivered to their huge rooftop terrace at the taxpayers' expense. However, one must be completely politically tone-deaf to allow a camera crew to film them while doing so. It's like if you, as the manager of a struggling company, order the most expensive bottle of wine at a business dinner and let Corporate Communications film you while doing it. Completely absurd. (translated)
While Ulrich Siegmund eats his sausage goulash with crispbread, the CDU shows how close to the citizens one can be even in the Chancellery thanks to beach chairs. (translated)
When a politician like Amthor, who has only made headlines for lobbying scandals and embarrassing döner videos during the election campaign, has an office that is larger than many of the apartments of the citizens who finance his exorbitant salary, with a rooftop terrace where he even has a beach chair set up to enjoy the nice view, it perfectly expresses the big problem of our time: the political caste has become so disconnected from reality that it can no longer understand the problems of the normal population. They enrich themselves through ever-increasing taxes on the citizens, who can hardly make ends meet due to the catastrophic policies, while Amthor, with a driver and chauffeur, probably has no idea about the current fuel prices. With a gross salary of around 24,000 euros, he probably doesn’t care at all. We need to turn the entire political system completely upside down. This self-enrichment must finally come to an end. (translated)
If you bring Philipp Amthor (CDU) into the Chancellery and his first official act is to order a beach chair, then you know: The CDU is sending its last reserves - the AfD is the future of our country. (translated)
Oh how nice. The daycare of the Bundestag is getting a beach chair. (translated)
The legendary rise of the legendary minister Philipp Amthor. Legendary statements about career, responsibility, beach chairs, chancellor's foxes, and credibility. Legendary! (translated)
