Scholz im Bundestag, politische Blockaden und spannende Gäste im Berlin Playbook

Heute wird Bundeskanzler Olaf Scholz eine Stunde lang den Abgeordneten im Bundestag Rede und Antwort stehen. Doch dies könnte das letzte Mal sein, dass Scholz in dieser Funktion vor der Neuwahl im Februar im Parlament auftritt. Trotz einer prall gefüllten Tagesordnung scheint die politische Arbeit weitgehend zum Stillstand gekommen zu sein. Chefkorrespondent Rasmus Buchsteiner und Gordon Repinski analysieren, warum der Bundestag bis zu den Wahlen kaum noch handlungsfähig ist.

Herbert Reul zu Asylpolitik und Zivilschutz im Interview
Im “200-Sekunden-Interview” kommt NRW-Innenminister Herbert Reul (CDU) zu Wort. Mit klaren Ansagen äußert er Kritik an der schleppenden Umsetzung der angekündigten Asylwende und fordert ein stärkeres Engagement des Bundes beim Zivilschutz, der aus seiner Sicht dringend verbessert werden muss.

US-Politik im Fokus: Hunter Biden, das FBI und Trump
Senior Political Columnist Jonathan Martin beleuchtet brisante Themen aus den USA: die mögliche Begnadigung von Hunter Biden durch Noch-Präsident Joe Biden, Besorgnis über einen potenziellen Umbau des FBI unter Donald Trump und den Umstand, dass Richard Grenell, ehemaliger US-Botschafter in Deutschland, bei Trumps Personalentscheidungen offenbar keine zentrale Rolle mehr spielt.

EU-Thema: Herabstufung des Wolfsschutzes
Die EU hat den Schutzstatus des Wolfs herabgestuft. Für Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen könnte dies, so wird spekuliert, insgeheim eine persönliche Genugtuung bedeuten. Mehr zu den politischen und ökologischen Konsequenzen findet ihr in der Berichterstattung von POLITICO hier.
