It goes like this: Five Rentner (retirees) overthrough the German government.
Or plan to. Or at least think about maybe doing it or something.
Forgive them, judge. This took place (not) when that wacky “January 6 insurrection” fad was going around. German media just had to come up with something.
Five Germans go on trial over alleged far-right coup plot – Group accused of plotting to abduct minister and topple government in protest at Covid measures.
A deal you can’t refuse.
Five Germans handed jail sentence for Green Vault jewel heist. But these slaps on the wrist aren’t the story.
A part of the loot had been handed over to to a lawyer’s office. In return, the clan members received lighter sentences. The deal had previously been arranged through the defense, a capitulation to the clan criminals before the rule of law.
And the “six German men” handed jail sentences? They weren’t of the Michael and Johannes type. They were of the Lebanese Remmo Clan variety. You know, Corleone style.
That means welcome gift.
Gift in German, by the way, means poison.
As a welcome gift, Scholz put together an arms package worth 2.7 billion euros. Germany is supplying more infantry fighting vehicles, older Leopard-1s, howitzers, armored combat vehicles, reconnaissance drones and ammunition. It is the most extensive pledge by the German government since the start of the war.
German Of The Day: Schlusslicht. That means taillight. As in last place. Again.
This has now become a tradition, I guess. It’s very strange. Russia would have received more points. With Putin singing.
This can’t be true! We got the fewest points again! We brought up the rear at the Eurovision Song Contest once again. And that despite the quite striking performance of “Lord of the Lost”.
Literally, “Job of the Bible’s message.” Bad news, in other words. Evil tidings.
HIOBSBOTSCHAFT FOR GERMAN ECONOMY: Industrial Production Surprisingly Down Sharply.
Germany’s Industrial Plunge Revives Winter Recession Fears – German industrial production sank by the most in a year — raising the risk that Europe’s largest economy slipped into a winter recession.
Output dropped 3.4% in March, more than the 1.5% decline economists had predicted in a Bloomberg survey. The decrease was especially pronounced in the automotive sector, according to the statistics office.
That means blasting.
I got your infrastructure for you right here, pal.
If all goes well, the Rahmedetalbrücke (bridge) will collapse exactly vertically on Sunday. “We don’t have a meter of space,” says blaster Michael Schneider, meaning that the bridge must not tip to the side during the blasting. This is because there are houses almost directly underneath it, which must not come to any harm.
“Am deutschen Wesen soll die Welt genesen.” That’s something like: The world shall be healed following the German way.
Overconsumption: Germany needs 3 planets – On May 4, Germany exhausted its capacity to sustain itself. This “earth overshoot” will be compensated by taking finite resources from poorer countries — and future generations.
Despite the economic slowdown due to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, Germany has now overreached its sustainable biological limits.
Meanwhile, this year’s global Earth Overshoot Day is, like last year, projected to be around July 28.
That means horror scenario.
Horror Scenario – Germany Prepares for Possible Re-Election of Donald Trump.
Berlin is preparing for the possibility that Donald Trump could beat Joe Biden in the next election. That outcome would likely be a disaster for Ukraine, NATO and the looming climate crisis. Diplomats have begun establishing contacts with the former president’s camp to avoid being blindsided as they were in 2016.
“The Germans are bad, very bad.”
That means self-sufficiency.
The Big Dig: Germany reopens its mines in quest for mineral self-sufficiency – Berlin wants to reduce its dependence on China by extracting more critical raw materials, such as fluorspar, at home.
“If we really want a revolution in transport and the resources needed for that, there’s no way around this project.”
Seems to be taking longer than you were planning.
Or would that be racist (the attackers never seem to be a Lukas, Tobias or a Günther)? Whatever. But once they are introduced, knife attacks will finally be a thing of the past.
Stabbing attack at German gym leaves 4 severely injured – German police say four people have been severely injured in a stabbing attack at a gym in the western city of Duisburg.
PS: While we’re at it. Why don’t you consider banning fitness studios (gyms)?
