Anna wrote that Kiev was without electricity and water supply after a Russian attack on the CHP-5 thermal power plant in Kharkiv. As a result, the US energy ceasefire was broken – just a few hours after Trump had announced it. https://t.co/tu30GUkmV1 #Kiew #Energiekrise #Russland (translated)

The author wrote that Russians celebrated the attack on the most important thermal power plant in the Kharkiv region. This happened shortly after another lie from the man in the White House, which he described as shameless.

Alex 8h

Alex reported that a colleague bought Velux windows, a heat pump, drywall, and screed in Poland for the renovation of his house because the prices in Germany were too high for him. The Velux windows cost about half there; even the product description was in German. Alex asked why identical products were significantly more expensive in this country and wrote that the savings from shopping in the neighboring country raised questions about what was going wrong in Germany. He believed that if this development continued, even a working person here would soon be unable to afford anything. #Bauprojekte #PreiseVergleichen #Hausbau (translated)

Eppo Tjuchem wrote that people he referred to as Antifa supporters and anarchists had given him the middle finger during the housing protest yesterday.

Marysol wrote that the individuals could have also stayed in one of the seven countries they had traveled through, where it generally did not rain and it was about ten degrees warmer. According to her, the Dublin Agreement was ignored daily. #Asielstop #Asiel #Dublinverdrag #Migratie (translated)

Nico Lange criticized a proposal by AfD and BSW in the state parliament of Saxony-Anhalt regarding peace talks. He wrote that Russia had attacked Ukraine and should not be rewarded for it. Ukraine has been ready for an unconditional and comprehensive ceasefire since March 2025, but Russia has not been so far. Therefore, pressure must be exerted on Moscow, Lange said. Arms deliveries do not necessarily extend the war, he argued. Germany is supplying air defense systems and ammunition that protect people and infrastructure. Ending support could weaken Ukraine's defense and make further waves of migration to Germany more likely. Lange also considered a complete lifting of sanctions against Russia before negotiations to be diplomatically unprofessional. The federal government supports a negotiated end to the war; it is crucial to move Russia towards a sustainable ceasefire and serious talks, he wrote. #Frieden #UkrainischerKonflikt #Diplomatie (translated)

Stefan Energie Chiemgau/Outdoor Chiemgau wrote that Sylt had been without power for 15 hours due to an outdated medium-voltage cable.

Eppo Tjuchem wrote that a woman who demonstrated for the climate at the Grote Markt held her hand in front of the camera lens when she saw the camera. According to him, with a warm coffee mug in her hand, she was giving a lesson on press rights and tried to make the filmmaker feel guilty. Tjuchem stated that protesters could be filmed in that location and asked if the woman would personally appreciate it if someone filmed her mother that way. #Klimaatalarm #Klimaat #Persrecht #Actie (translated)

There, she showed herself to be athletic and self-confident and enjoyed the freedom under the Bavarian sky.

Our house was built during the GDR era – today we have to protect it from the state. Dear boomers, the Federal Republic of Germany has reached the socialist end stage. Those who pay nothing naturally get everything. And those who finance the whole thing are now supposed to give up their savings or even their house before they get anything from this so-called nursing insurance? What a mockery. My advice: Waste your wealth or give your children the properties "with warm hands." But don't hesitate, because the nursing fund has a 10-year deadline! After that, the property is secure. Fortunately, everything is already in safe hands for us – the house remains in the family, come what may! Did you know about this 10-year deadline?

Did you know that more than 2 percent of the German core budget is planned for military aid to Ukraine in 2026? That's 11.5 billion euros! With this amount, for example, every kindergarten and school child in Germany could receive a warm lunch at state expense every day, and there would still be a larger sum remaining! #Ukraine #Militärhilfe #Bildung (translated)

From FAZ to TAZ, Strandkorb-Gate has entered a new phase. Suddenly, Philipp Amthor is the victim of a campaign. The words "right" and "Russia" are still missing, but they will come by tomorrow at the latest. On LinkedIn, someone complained that it was only about symbols. Oh yes! We had this problem with emotionally overloaded symbols also with: - Rainbow flags - Knife prohibition zones - Hitler salutes - Armbands - Heat pumps... But: A beach chair at the workplace of a high-ranking politician - however Amthor ended up there - is a symbol. A symbol for a completely distorted mindset. Amthor enjoys his privileges instead of serving, serving, and serving. What concrete work result from Philipp Amthor is actually documented? Purely symbolically? Do you know any? #Priebshow #Priebshow #Politik #Symbolik #PhilippAmthor (translated)
