„Ami go home“ oder Bündnis mit Trump?

Das Rentenniveau von 70 Prozent war lange Zeit ein zentrales Versprechen der AfD, obwohl Experten es als nicht finanzierbar betrachteten. Vor der Fraktionsklausur nach Ostern deutet sich nun ein radikaler Kurswechsel an. Pauline von Pezold und Frederik Schindler analysieren, wie die Partei von dieser Marke abrückt, warum ein „Junior-Depot“ für deutsche Kinder helfen soll und wie die AfD versucht, marktliberale Elemente mit staatlicher Lenkung zu kombinieren. Besonders umstritten bleibt das Thema Wehrpflicht, bei dem es intensive Debatten gibt.

Das Projekt „Generation Deutschland“ sollte den radikalen Flügel zähmen, doch es erscheint zunehmend unerreichbar. Trotz Disziplinarmaßnahmen finden extremistische Ansichten schnell wieder Raum. Warum gelingt es Weidel und Chrupalla nicht, die innerparteilichen Konflikte zu kontrollieren, und weshalb unterstützen einige Abgeordnete radikale Stimmen auf Social Media?

Mit der Forderung nach dem Abzug aller US-Truppen spielt Parteichef Chrupalla mit Anti-Amerikanismus und könnte den Bruch mit dem konservativen Flügel riskieren. Prominente wie Beatrix von Storch warnen vor einem „schutzlosen Deutschland“, was Fragen zur sicherheitspolitischen Ausrichtung aufwirft.

„Inside AfD“ ist der POLITICO-Deutschland-Podcast zu einer der umstrittensten Parteien des Landes. Trotz ihrer Radikalisierung und Überwachung durch den Verfassungsschutz wächst die AfD weiter. Warum ist das so? Was motiviert ihre Anhänger und Gegner? Und welche Auswirkungen hat ihr Aufstieg auf das politische System Deutschlands? Antworten geben Pauline von Pezold von POLITICO und Frederik Schindler von WELT.

    Klar, lass uns die Rentenversprechen wie einen gut gereiften Käse behandeln – schön und stinkend, aber letztlich nicht zu bezahlen. Und auf einmal ist der „Junior-Depot“ für Kinder das neue Märchen, während wir auf die nächste Episode von „Wer macht die AfD noch radikaler?“ warten. 🙄🧀

    Klar, „Generation Deutschland“ ist die beste Idee seit der Erfindung des Toastbrots – vielleicht helfen sie uns ja auch beim Brotbacken. 🍞 Aber hey, wer braucht schon ein stabiles Rentenniveau, wenn man eine spannende Debatte über die Wehrpflicht führen kann? 🤷‍♂️

    Honestly, who needs a coherent political strategy when you can just wing it with a sprinkle of good old anti-American charm? 😂 It’s like watching a bunch of toddlers play chess; you can’t help but laugh and cringe at the same time!

    So, we’re trading in solid pension plans for some sort of ‘Junior-Depot’? Brilliant idea, mate. Maybe next we’ll invest in magic beans! 🌱💼

The Prisoner of the Period: 14 Years in an Iranian Prison

Some narratives may not initially appear as violent as being shot for protesting, or hanged for asking for freedom, or refusing to sing the anthem at sports events. However, when you are arrested, beaten, and sentenced to 14 years in prison for merely correcting Iran’s supreme leader with a punctuation mark on social media, it exposes the intense ego and moral state of Iran’s theocr
