🚨🇪🇺 Gloomy obituary for our continent According to Professor @xueqinjiang, #Europe is 'absolutely hopeless in free fall - a burning dumpster dragging everything into the abyss!'

🚨🇩🇪 Dramatic price shock at German gas pumps The pure fuel costs before taxes have reached such a record level in this country that they now completely dwarf the fully taxed gasoline prices of Americans!

Looks like a contradiction, but it's an old pattern: The price of gold fell by around 3% on Wednesday and is trading below USD 5,000/ounce again. In the middle of an escalating geopolitical crisis & gold of all things is giving way? For laypeople it is irritating. Not for experienced people.

The “special fund” is simply fraud on the taxpayer.

🚨 Since the Ukraine war, the frighteningly fatal analysis of whether Germany might enter a war against Iran and for the Americans has been present at #Lanz.

At #Lanz the Strait of Hormuz is being processed almost three weeks after the start of the war...

A crisis is brewing in the background that could affect every citizen at their kitchen table. The escalating conflict between Israel, the USA & Iran is mercilessly exposing the West's Achilles heel: our frighteningly fragile food supply.

Meanwhile, according to a study, 86 percent of the special assets were misused to plug budget holes. But of course, we should focus on other countries.

A spectacle! The federal government loudly announces the tightening of antitrust law and the affected industry promptly forms resistance. This time it is the oil companies and gas station operators who are raising the alarm bells with a “gasoline peak”.

Ideocracy! Members of the EU Parliament cannot find Iran on a map. Wrong answers only.

AfD as a new workers' party! Are they even allowed to do that in the ÖRR? Two of the three guests at #Maischberger see the AfD as a new workers' party after the SPD's disastrous election results in the state (and before). Because the SPD tends to make policies for the unemployed.

The SPD is going under! At #Maischberger, Christoph Schwennicke describes the current situation and the SPD's unrealistic actions as a kind of "diving sickness".

Yesterday's local elections in Hesse triggered a political earthquake. While the CDU was able to maintain its position as the strongest force with 29.7%, the real blow was different: the AfD more than doubled its result from 6.8% to a whopping 15.9%.

🚨Will it escalate soon? 26 Chinese fighter jets & 7 warships around #Taiwan! China is escalating – it is one of the largest demonstrations of power in years. Since the USA is completely tied up in the Middle East through Iran: Will China take advantage of this? What is your assessment?

Very dangerous statements... Our former Federal President Joachim Gauck says in #Miosga IN ALL SERIOUSNESS that it is okay if democracies attack dictatorships in order to carry out regime change. He cites China as an example of dictatorships - should we now attack China?

Look astray... Former Federal President Joachim Gauck says at #Miosga that the attack by the USA & Israel on Iran does not violate international law. Because you want to eliminate a “bad evil”.

What is that, please? No content, just neglect of wealth & Büllerbü behavior. Let's see how the state elections in Rhineland-Palatinate turn out. What do you think about that?

Markus Söder wants “nuclear energy 2.0” for Bavaria. Funny what a flag in the wind he is. In 2021, the first nuclear reactor in Bavaria was taken offline and he was in favor of it out of conviction.

Federal Justice Minister Hubig is calling for a quick social media ban for young people. Reason: child protection. They want to protect children “from real dangers”. Seriously? - 250,000 children/young people are homeless or live in emergency accommodation - 2.2 million are at risk of poverty - In 2024 there were ~73,000 cases of child endangerment.

He always comes around the corner with nonsense! DIW boss Marcel Fratzscher wants property tax to always be adjusted upwards. Aimed at “closing funding gaps” caused by the incompetent state. The main thing is tax increases. How about the government handling money better?

The rumor mill is bubbling... Many noticed that the recent Israeli Security Cabinet meeting took place without the Prime Minister of Israel. Benjamin Netanyahu actually holds the chairmanship. Now many are asking the question: Is he still alive?

While Brussels wants to bring European defense into shape with loan programs worth billions, Poland, of all places, is standing in the way: President Karol Nawrocki is blocking the EU's "Safe" arms program and is instead relying on national solutions.

Very nice! The CDU considers the top tax rate of up to 49% to be a proposal that is “going in the right direction”. The very party that promised loudly during the election campaign to reduce the tax burden is now opening the floodgates for one of the most massive tax increases in recent German history.

A bankruptcy every 20 minutes. This year is expected to be worse than 2025.

The FBI warned California police authorities in a confidential letter about Iranian attacks on the US West Coast. Tehran would have sought to carry out a drone attack from a ship off the US coast if the US attacked Iran militarily.

R to @Dominik_Kettner: Here is the description of the office: https://www.bundespraesident.de/DE/amt-und-stellen/rolle-im-staat/rolle-im-staat_node.html

So, Mr. Steinmeier. "The party-political neutrality and distance from everyday party politics maintained by the Federal President give him the opportunity to be a clarifying force, to break down prejudices, to articulate citizens' interests, to influence public discussion, to criticize, to make suggestions and ideas."
