NO money to nations and no defense to nations who don’t promote our values and who don’t hold free and fair elections.

Charlie Kirk is heading to Germany in the next few weeks. He said by the time he’s done, he may need Marco Rubio to get him out.

This is what 80 years of US protection for Western Europe has produced - a set of East Germanys with better technology. US out of NATO now.

That kind of repression by the state blows back on the state bigly. It will come.

Globalist, neo-marxists, WEF drones in Brussel are weak, scared and reactionary. They don’t have much time remaining.

I saw it just a little while ago without knowing what it was.

I was actually confused, they were talking about arresting people for “spreading lies” and she was smiling. Then they started talking about how people could be arrested for posting falsehoods and she seemed even more happy.

I Kept waiting for her to start criticizing them…Never happened….SMDH.

Liberal females are truly a threat to western ideals.

It looks to me that these anti-free speech laws in Europe are mainly meant to suppress one thing: valid criticism of Islam.

If so, Europe is doubling down on stupid.

But I guess “stupid” is not quite the right word there. Because a civilization that willfully commits suicide is far more than just stupid.

Oddly it never occurred to the woman being interviewed that the most likely reason “half of the internet users in Germany are afraid to express their political opinion” is that they are afraid of being persecuted by the government and people like her for having a different opinion that the approved opinion.

AfD is polling second in the upcoming German elections; I suspect they may be stronger than that because people are afraid to be outed as supporters and face government persecution.

The gleeful CBS interview is Sharyn Alfonsi. I’m going out on a limb and saying she is a Tylical far left, fake news. DemoRAT.

I don’t know much about her but she has some shares of decidedly ant-Maga, anti-trump posts on her social media.

She is from Mississippi. I suspect she is getting heat because her FB and X pages are very limited. Beyond that I dont have much.

China already has all of this - Censorship, Social Credit, a Totalitarian Government. The purpose of a Church in China is to report dissidents to the government.

A love of censorship is not a Western trait.

We should be planning sanctions against anti-democratic nations - for example if German elites continue to fence out the AfD. We can also voice support for any pro-democracy revolts that take place in Europe - not necessarily promising to get involved with boots on the ground, but clearly standing with the people rather than the autocrats who have been censoring, arresting people over non-violent speech and prayers, annulling elections, defrauding taxpayers, suppressing religous expression and practice and so on.

Margaret Brennan (the same idiot J D Vance said “I don’t care” to) tried to say that ‘free speech was what caused the genocide of the Jews.

I think she accidentally revealed what the Dems want to do to US....revoke the 1st Amendment, at.least.for conservatives and Republicans, saying it’s inflammatory... when in reality it’s because the truth we say hurts their ‘widdle feewings’.

The Bruce Springsteen album graphic here is ironic given that Springsteen has long been an apologist for and promoter of the Deep State.

Afraid to speak freely....in Germany? And police raids if you are turned in for saying the wrong thing?
What a surprise.

Germany has made some neat things. But in Government, they gave us Marxism, Nazism, and Prussian bureaucracy. They really need to STFU on such topics.
