This video from Black Conservative Perspective discusses the recent electoral success of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in the German state of Saxony-Anhalt, where they secured 44% of the vote (0:28-0:32, 9:16-9:20). Key takeaways from the video: Mainstream Media Reaction: The narrator highlights what they describe as a "meltdown" or "panic" within the mainstream liberal media, which labels the AfD as "far-right" or even neo-Nazi. The creator argues these terms are smear tactics used to discredit a party that is simply advocating for common-sense policies (2:17-2:48, 8:08-9:01). Core AfD Policies: The video notes that the AfD's platform focuses on...

BSW says it prefers an AfD-only minority government with give and take with parties outside government on specific issues.

This week I predicted that Germany's Alternative for Germany would likely win Sunday's state election in Saxony-Anhalt, a development I called "earth-shattering." The AfD has now moved from a protest party on the margins to one capable of winning elections outright. It is important to note that the party is not "far right" — as much of the European and international press labels it.

Following its record election success, the far-right Alternative for Germany aims to form a government. What options does it have without a majority?

"Seismic", "a socio-political earthquake", "a watershed moment for Germany". This was how political analysts and many media outlets described the stunning victory of the anti-immigration Alternative for Germany (AfD) party in local elections in Germany on Sunday. Is that an exaggeration? Saxony-Anhalt is one of the smallest of massive Germany's 16 regions. It boasts a mere 1.7m out of 59m eligible voters nationwide. How significant can its political sentiments be, especially since the AfD narrowly failed to win an outright majority? The answer: very significant. The vote may have been regional but it impacts at national level. The AfD landslide...

The far-right Alternative for Germany party surged to a major victory in a regional election on Sunday, but fell a little short of winning a majority in its quest to form the country’s first far-right state government since World War II. The German far-right party AfD has taken a commanding lead in Sunday's Saxony-Anhalt vote, but could not secure enough seats to form a majority. Final results showed AfD receiving 43.8% of the vote, more than double its showing five years ago in the region of 2.1 million people west of Berlin. However, falling three seats short, with 39 lawmakers...

Exit poll shows Alternative für Deutschland on 44.4% of vote in Saxony-Anhalt after huge turnout, with votes still being counted

BERLIN, Sept 6 (Reuters) - The Alternative for Germany (AfD) surged into first place in state elections in Saxony-Anhalt on Sunday, exit ​polls showed, putting a far-right party on the cusp of power at state level for the ‌first time since World War Two. The AfD won 44.5% of the vote, with Chancellor Friedrich Merz’s conservatives trailing well behind on 18.5%, and the centre-left Social Democrats and environmental Greens both clearing the minimum threshold to enter parliament, according to an exit poll from the ​ARD broadcaster.

This Sunday, the German state of Saxony-Anhalt holds its state election. The populist-right Alternative for German (AfD) is far out in front, but will have difficulty finding a coalition partner with which to form a ruling majority in the state legislature. AfD has been described as an extremist party, not merely a populist-right party. So, I thought I'd link to its manifesto (or platform). I'll say a few things about its manifesto in my comment following

A conservative German mayor's €10,000 donation to the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) is making things awkward for his party's leaders. Bernd Prange, a Christian Democrat who serves as mayor of Altmärkische Höhe in Saxony-Anhalt, wrote in an open letter on Wednesday that he would be voting for the AfD in the state's upcoming election on Sept. 6. "I want the AfD to become so strong in the Saxony-Anhalt election that it can govern alone," wrote Prange. The goal, he said, was for his own party to "finally wake up," tear down Germany's political firewall and abandon what he called...

AfD leader Alice Weidel has said her party would seek to take Germany out of both the euro and the Schengen agreement if it entered the federal government, setting out one of its most far-reaching challenges to the country's existing European framework. Speaking in ZDF's summer interview, Weidel also pledged to close Germany's borders and argued that the country had been economically stronger before adopting the single currency. Euro Exit Returns to AfD Agenda Weidel reaffirmed the AfD's commitment to leaving the euro, saying she still supported the position in the party's federal election program. “Germany was significantly better off...

Die Welt and other outlets broke a story about Chancellor Merz drawing up plans to isolate German states where AfD may win a majority in the future, so that Germany can retain its role as key central NATO transport hub in the war against Russia being stirred by European elites: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2026/07/30/merz-plan-to-prevent-putin-friendly-afd-state-blocking-nato/From the Telegraph piece above: Friedrich Merz is drawing up secret plans to prevent German pro-Kremlin “traitor states” from obstructing Nato’s plans to defend against a Russian invasion. German officials fear the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party could frustrate the movement of allied forces through two eastern states it is...

n Germany, the trains have stopped running on time, bridges have been shut over safety fears, and the country’s largest carmaker, Volkswagen, is cutting a sixth of its workforce. The government’s response amounts to a shrug, dressed up as reform. It seems like Germany is on a bad streak – and the AfD looks set to reap the rewards. Take the railways, the infamous Deutsche Bahn. A few weeks ago, they ground to a total halt. Every train in the country stood still, because the radio system that lets drivers talk to signal boxes – a system that appears to...

The German far-right party, Alternative for Germany (AfD), could be closing in on power at the state level for the first time since the Nazi regime's defeat in World War II 81 years ago. Polling suggests the party is far ahead of its rivals in Saxony‑Anhalt and, crucially, within striking distance of an outright majority that would defeat mainstream parties' traditional Brandmauer—or "firewall"—against a far-right government. Germany's electoral system of proportional representation means that most governments at the national and regional level are coalitions. The "firewall" is an agreement of non‑cooperation in which mainstream parties do not govern with, or...

Nearly 5,000 criminal cases were launched last year against everyday citizens for criticizing politicians online. Germans have had enough. German Chancellor Friedrich Merz - ODD ANDERSEN / AFP.The German Criminal Code’s controversial Section 188, which prohibits social media users from insulting or even criticizing politicians online, has become a hot topic in Germany again after a Facebook user was fined for over €2,000 for calling Chancellor Merz a “liar.” Pollster INSA conducted a country-wide survey to discover what Germans actually think about the law, and found widespread opposition. According to the poll, a plurality (43%) of Germans want the complete...

Video Transcript Summary Stephen Kuhn, a Bronze Star recipient, combat veteran (Iraq), co-founder of Germany's AfD party, intelligence/politics insider who lived in 10 countries, with a Ukrainian partner, and author of five books on citizens reclaiming government power. The interview is optimistic yet urgent, framing a global struggle between sovereignists/nationalists and globalists/technocrats. Kuhn emphasizes facts, triangulation of information, long-term strategic thinking, and practical local action over emotional narratives. Kuhn expresses deep faith in America as the greatest nation due to its moral and spiritual origins (belief in higher power, Enlightenment/Magna Carta roots, Judeo-Christian values). Americans are the top per-capita donors...

In France, the National Front was co-founded in the 1970s by the avowed anti-Semite Jean-Marie Le Pen, along with a former member of the Waffen SS, and a member of the Vichy parapolice. Jean-Marie’s daughter, Marine Le Pen, took over the party in 2011...During her 2017 presidential campaign, she said that France was not responsible for the July 1942 roundup in which French police arrested and deported approximately thirteen thousand Jews. “I think, generally speaking,” she said, “if there are people responsible, it’s those who were in power at the time-not France.” ... By the time snap parliamentary elections were...

Germany's Alternative for Germany (AfD) is on track to become the strongest party in an eastern ​state election in September, a poll showed on ‌Thursday, raising the prospect of the far-right party leading a regional government for the first time.

Meanwhile, foreign Islamists meeting “residency” requirements receive taxpayer assistance. Andreas Wailzer at LifeSite News reports that the German government, through the Ministry of Construction, has just proposed a new bill that “would give municipalities the right of first refusal if a potential buyer of property has ‘anti-constitutional aspirations.’” [The elite German rulers, closely in concert with E.U. Bureaucrats, have little concern for the common people, who are tending to express their discontent at the results of Angela Merkle's open immigration policies by steady increases in votes for Alternative für Deutschland, AfD. Once shockwaves from reductions in Gulf petrol, LNG and...

Liz Churchill@liz_churchill10 Angela Merkel just ADMITTED on CAMERA she deliberately flooded Germany with third-world migrants to “stop the far right.” She chose to erase her own people rather than lose power. This wasn’t a mistake. It was demographic warfare. This is TREASON.April 1, 2026
