A guest contribution by Vera Lengsfeld
My loyal readers know that I am critical of Friedrich Merz – I don’t see him as the candidate for chancellor with whom the CDU/CSU will succeed in switching to a liberal-conservative majority in 2025, but I also want to appreciate – especially in these times – every glimmer of hope.
The traffic light, and with it the Merkel Republic, is at an end. Every day more is devastating for our country.
This fundamental realization seems to be slowly gaining ground with Chancellor Scholz, even if he has once again granted Nancy Faeser and thus the SPD functionary apparatus a reprieve. But Germany can no longer continue as it has in terms of migration, energy, security, and financial and social systems. The explosive power of this policy is no longer controllable.
Friedrich Merz, but above all his new general Carsten Linnemann, seem not only to have recognized this, but above all to have drawn some correct conclusions from it: People don’t want “more unity,” “less strife,” or even “pretty pictures” and what all the self-lies of the Berlin Mitte apparatus are called, but different politics: problem solving and immediate redirection in the case of obviously failed projects.
Friedrich Merz and Carsten Linnemann have recognized the signs of the times, albeit late, and hopefully also understood that the CDU/CSU can only regain trust through content. And they do it cleverly: The typical Merkel-like feint of Chancellor Scholz’ “Germany Cooperation” is taken up, but redefined in terms of content: The bluff of the would-be “climate chancellor” is countered with clear demands on migration and energy. Germany does not need the faster approval of even more nature- and economy-destroying, senseless windmills, but the immediate dismounting from the already decaying, dead horse that Merkel-Germany has marketed as “Energiewende”. Restart ISAR II as soon as possible as the first measure.
And, of course, above all, a migration and integration policy that, together with our European neighbors and all other transit states, is geared to control and, above all, limit.
Whereby taxes do not mean distribution, but rather the definition of target capacities and qualifications. The approach of a real immigration country, which of course does not only require constitutional loyalty for immigration or even naturalization, but combines immigration with integration and a functioning economic and social state. Those who manage to have an education or a secure livelihood in 3-5 years are allowed to stay; those who do not manage to do so must leave the country again.
The demands of Merz-Linnemann set the first right signs, but are absolutely in need of supplementation. Above all, the import of anti-Semites must be stopped. Anyone in our society who celebrates Hamas or engages in anti-Semitic activity should be deported. Item.
I am cautiously optimistic that the Merz-Linnemann demands can be the basis for a change of coalition. The Greens and FDP urgently need to go into opposition! The country can’t stand the Faesers, Lauterbachs, Baerbocks and Habecks for two more years!
We have no more time to lose!
Under fire – but all the more important is your support!
“Conspiracy ideologue,” “Nazi” or “right-wing agitator”: as a critical journalist today, you have to constantly have dirt thrown at you. The public broadcasters are particularly active in this area. ARD’s chief fact-finder Gensing already sued me in 2019, and the Böhmermann broadcaster ZDF recently slandered me as a “propagator of conspiracy narratives” – without naming a single piece of evidence, and in a post full of lies. Springer journalist Gabor Steingardt slandered me in “Focus,” for which I worked for 16 years, as a “member of an army of tin soldiers” and a “media fighting machine” of the AfD. On the initiative of “Westdeutscher Rundfunk,” I was even put on the wanted list. If one defends oneself legally, one usually has to bear the costs oneself. Your support is all the more important. Also morally. It spurs you on to keep going and not give up. Thank you very much for making my work possible with your contribution – without compulsory fees and tax money.
Currently (again) donations via credit card, Apple Pay etc. are possible – despite the Paypal block: via this link. Alternatively via bank transfer, IBAN: DE30 6805 1207 0000 3701 71. For those who have little themselves, I expressly ask you to keep what little you have. I am all the more pleased to receive support from all those whom it does not hurt.

Guest posts always reflect the author’s opinion, not mine. And I believe that contributions from contentious authors are particularly valuable for discussion and democracy. I value my readers as adults and want to offer them different points of view so they can form their own opinions.
