🔴 Friedrich Merz has advised young Germans not to move to the US, risking deepening a row with Donald Trump Merz tells Catholic gathering in Würzburg that ‘even the best educated in America have great difficulty in finding a job’ 👇

Carl Friedrich Gauss (1777–1855) derived the exact value of cos(2π/17) This remarkable expression was part of his proof that a regular 17-gon is constructible with compass and straightedge; one of the great achievements in the history of mathematics. cos(2π/17) = [-1 + √17 + √(34 - 2√17) + 2√17 + 3√17 - √(34 - 2√17) - 2√34 + 2√17] / 16

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz said today that he spoke with U.S. President Donald J. Trump while he was on the way back from his summit in China with Chinese President Xi Jinping. Per the statement from Chancellor Merz, the two spoke on the Iran situation, again agreeing that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon. However, the E3 nations, that being Germany, the UK, and France, have approached the Iranian nuclear issue differently than the current administration. The two leaders also spoke on NATO and the ongoing war in Ukraine, per the statement.

German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz tweeted on X: "I had a good phone conversation with US President Donald Trump on his way back from China. We agree: Iran must come to the negotiating table now. It must open the Strait of Hormuz and Tehran must not be allowed to possess nuclear weapons."

The Chancellor of Germany, Friedrich Merz, thinks it’s OK for Iran to have a Nuclear Weapon. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about! If Iran had a Nuclear Weapon, the whole World would be held hostage. I am doing something with Iran, right now, that other Nations, or Presidents, should have done long ago. No wonder Germany is doing so poorly, both Economically, and otherwise! President DONALD J. TRUMP ( Donald J. Trump - TS: Apr 28 2026, 2:25 PM ET )

‼️🇩🇪 This is what German police actually do with their time now. Going door to door, seizing tablets and phones from pensioners over memes and tweets. The case of the Fortnite teen getting accused for cursing out Olaf Scholz is not an isolated one. Prosecutors can now open cases on their own under "special public interest." The politician doesn't need to file anything. The result is a steady drip of cases that look insane from the outside and barely register inside the system. Germany has a law problem. The §188 StGB statute, "insulting a person of political life," got beefed up by the Bundestag in 2021. This has led to the following absurd cases: - Pimmelgate (2021): Hamburg interior senator Andy Grote got called a "Pimmel" (dick) on Twitter after he was caught violating his own COVID restrictions. Police raided the user's apartment at 6 a.m. with six officers. The Hamburg regional court later ruled the raid disproportionate. The term "Pimmelgate" became national shorthand for state overreach. - The Schwachkopf-Affäre (2024): Stefan Niehoff, a 64-year-old pensioner, reposted an edited meme putting Robert Habeck on a fake "Schwachkopf Professional" shampoo bottle (roughly: "Professional Moron"). Reported via a state-linked "trusted flagger" pipeline, police raided his home at dawn in November 2024 and seized his tablet while his wife and his daughter with Down syndrome were home. Habeck filed the complaint. The main insult charge was later dropped, but Niehoff was fined €825 on related counts. He died in early 2026. The case became the single most-cited symbol of the law's reach. - The Merz "Pinocchio" probe (per Brussels Signal): a pensioner reportedly commented "Pinocchio is coming to HN" with a long-nose emoji on a police post about Chancellor Friedrich Merz visiting Heilbronn. Police flagged it during routine monitoring and opened a full §188 file, sending him a formal letter. Legal commentators have called the comment protected satirical speech. - The David Bendels case: the right-wing journalist shared a photomontage mocking then-Interior Minister Nancy Faeser. He was initially given a 7-month suspended prison sentence. On appeal in 2026, he was acquitted. The court ruled the satire was protected political expression. The pattern is the same every time. A low-engagement post or meme triggers a complaint. Prosecutors open a §188 file. Police execute a dawn raid or send a formal letter. Months or years later, a judge throws it out or dramatically narrows it. By that point the damage is already done. Devices are seized. Names are on file. Pensioners are dragged through a criminal process for posting a shampoo joke. This is what "wehrhafte Demokratie," aka militant democracy, looks like in 2026.
