Kontrollverlust. Bessere Abschottung gegen Illegale jetzt!
"Die Verankerung der #Merz-CDU in der Wählerschaft ist deutlich schwächer als die der #Merkel-CDU“, so die Forsa-Analyse. Der neue Kurs der #CDU habe die Entfremdung zwischen ihrem Funktionärskader und ihren Wählern verstärkt." Die Schonfrist ist vorbei. Nun kommt's wie erwartet.

Zelensky backing down on this shows the power of the democratic ideal in Ukraine. It was also a foolish move in the first place that should never have been attempted.
Ukrainian lawmakers say they expect to gather in a session already next week to vote on a new bill, to be introduced by Zelensky, that would restore the independence of the NABU and SAP anti-corruption bodies.

Unsurprising that Dominic “I won the referendum by getting Johnson to recite my lies” Cummings is drawn to a headline that is not substantiated by the story beneath it. Nice to see him and farage back in action together trying to stir up as much summer aggro as possible
A few weeks ago Rory Kamala-will-win easy Stewart & Alistair 45 minutes Campbell said my blog on the deep state fears about ethnic violence were 'far right conspiracy theory'. Today National Security Secretariat briefings to Cabinet are reported p1 in MSM. Remember, the…

„Enough is enough“. Co-leader of German Greens calls for partial weapons export ban against Israel, suspending EU trade preferences and sanctions against Smotrich and Ben-Gvir.
Die Aufforderungen von Herrn Merz an Herrn Netanyahu, die Sorgen von Herrn Wadephul im Gespräch mit seinem israelischen Amtskollegen – all das wird der erschütternden Situation in Gaza nicht mehr gerecht. Menschen werden auf der Suche nach Lebensmitteln getötet, sie hungern und…
Mein Kiel Report "Quo vadis, USA?" ist da (Link im naechsten Tweet). Ich bin @kielinstitute und @MSchularick sehr dankbar, dass ich mal etwas ausfuehrlicher meine Gedanken zur aktuellen politischen, gesellschaftlichen und wirtschaftlichen Situation in den USA aufschreiben konnte.
Es ist unfassbar dass die Bundesregierung daraus keine Konsequenzen zieht
“This is one of the worst tragedies we’ve seen,” @WFPChief tells me as dozens of Palestinians were reportedly killed by Israeli fire while desperately approaching a @wfp 25-truck aid convoy in northern Gaza. She tells me how it all unfolded and calls for immediate humanitarian…
These people need a mental health intervention, not a ministerial brief.
Meet the Reform UK councillor, just appointed to their top law and order team, who thinks trains are full of people in balaclavas, knives are hidden in every bush, and New York and Chicago are safer than London. ~AA
This. Needs to be tweeted out every day.
The overwhelming majority of Brits don’t want a Reform government.

Wir können den Irrsinn, der gegenwärtig in den USA geschieht, in Deutschland auf kleiner Flamme nachspielen. Wir müssen das aber nicht. Guter Text von @schieritz zeit.de/politik/deutsc…
There is literally noone who writes columns on daily life in Britain as brilliantly and effortlessly as @caitlinmoran This is just another example, and I totally agree with her. thetimes.com/comment/column…

Yes. And yes. 👇👇
Farage should never be interviewed without being forced to answer for failures of Brexit. That the man whose lies fuelled Brexit vote which has cost UK Billions & who said Liz Truss budget was “best Tory budget since 1986” could be trusted on *anything* is mind-boggling #bbclaura
“Do you think Israel is committing war crimes?” “Yes, I do. I think it's absolutely plain that they are.” Despite Israel’s right to self-defence after Oct 7, its response is ‘entirely disproportionate’ and violates international law, says Lord Sumption. @AyeshaHazarika
I think @PrivateEyeNews wrote this - or certainly will! 😅
Melania just posted this vomit inducing book excerpt about how she met Trump.... so she must be trying to get ahead of an incoming news bomb.
