Der „liebe Jens“ (Spahn) schickt also dem „lieben René“ (Benko) „vertraulich“ Vorlagen aus dem Bundestag?
Das ist zumindest sehr interessant… 🤨

In the meantime, the Kremlin failed to explain why the body of the Ukrainian journalist Viktoriia Roshchyna was returned without brain, eyes and larynx - and bearing torture marks! #ViktoriiaProject www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

New: The video I filmed of an ICE agent shoving a woman to the ground at 26 Federal Plaza, a New York City immigration courthouse, went viral. Then, in a rare move, the government publicly reprimanded the officer, calling his actions “unacceptable.”

I Filmed the ICE Officer Who Shoved a Woman to the Floor Inside a New York Courthouse
I arrived in the U.S. eight weeks ago to report on how the administration’s immigration crackdown was playing out from the front lines. What I saw Thursday was the culmination of ICE’s aggressive beha...

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse.

Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.

Die Passauer Neue Presse erhält eine Rüge für ihre identifizierende Berichterstattung über unsere Ex-SZ-Kollegin Alexandra Föderl-Schmid. Sehr richtige und wichtige Entscheidung des Presserats. ✊

Presserat: Rüge für die „Passauer Neue Presse“
Die Zeitung hatte im Zusammenhang mit einer Vermisstensuche identifizierend über die SZ-Nachrichtenchefin berichtet.

Spahn findet also, Kirk sei nicht extremistisch, sondern nur sehr klar gewesen? Dass man die Todesstrafe für politische Gegner ins Spiel bringt — das ist also nur „sehr klar“?
Spahn wie immer ganz vorne im populistisch durchziehen.

Mit Blick auf Thevessens Einlassungen zu Kirk: „Zu dem Fehler könnte man dann ja auch vielleicht mal stehen“ sagt bei #Miosga Jens Spahn, ein Experte darin, zu Fehlern zu stehen.

Ein Quasi-Staatsbegräbnis für jemanden, der für den letzten US-Präsidenten „Gefängnis oder die Todesstrafe“ forderte.
Es ist so irre. #CharlieKirk

“The leader of the free world” wanted to send a DM to Attorney General Pam Bondi. Instead he posted it to everyone on Truth Social.

It’s now been deleted.

Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, "same old story as last time, all talk, no action.
Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam "Shifty" Schiff, Leticia??? They're all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done." Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S.
Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That's why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many layers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can't delay any longer, it's killing our reputation and credibility.
They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT

Nach der Veröffentlichung unserer #GazaSniper​-Recherche gibt es in Deutschland und in den USA Forderungen, gegen zwei israelische Soldaten Ermittlungen einzuleiten. Einer stammt aus Bayern, der andere aus Illinois.

Auch die Vereinten Nationen haben sich geäußert.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.
