Germany’s increasingly unpopular and authoritarian globalist regime has banned members of the conservative-nationalist party Alternative for Germany (AfD)—the most popular in the country—from running for local mayor in the state of Rhineland-Palatinate.
The regime’s weapon of choice is a state blacklist, crafted by Germany’s highly politicized domestic intelligence service—an agency that persecutes patriotic citizens while branding the country’s true opposition as extremists.
A 2025 order from the state’s Interior Ministry, designed as a de-facto ban on the party, now forces candidates to vow no ties to listed organizations over the past five years, the Austrian news outlet Exxpress reported.
AfD members simply cannot sign without legally perjuring themselves. German-American Roberto Kiefer hoped to contest the mayoral seat in Nieder-Olm next March. The new rules render his bid impossible solely because of his party loyalty.
Kiefer rightly denounces it as a sneaky exclusion of a fully legal political movement and a party that’s the most popular in the country. He will file his candidacy regardless, bracing for the inevitable bureaucratic rejection.
This authoritarian tactic, employed by a government that’s quickly losing its democratic mandate, is nothing new—in Ludwigshafen, AfD’s Joachim Paul was booted from the race on flimsy loyalty grounds. Establishment courts, controlled by regime loyalists, rubber-stamped the decision, citing trumped up domestic intel rulings.
Voter turnout in Ludwigshafen plunged to embarrassing lows once Paul was removed. Disgusted citizens boycotted an election stripped of real alternatives.
Germany’s regime claims these bans safeguard democracy from supposed dangers. In reality, unelected officials are trampling the sovereign will of the people.
AfD leaders insist that only voters, not faceless ministries staffed with regime loyalists, should choose their representatives. The party remains completely lawful and is surging in polls nationwide.
The crackdown traces back to a July decree that already purges AfD supporters from all public-sector jobs. Small-town mayoral posts are conveniently classified as civil service to widen the net.
Legal scholars warn that letting bureaucrats revoke voting rights through vague lists threatens free elections. Such overreach exposes the regime’s fear of genuine competition.
Violent left-wing radicals are propped up in Germany and share space on the same voting list, while the AfD is singled out because it’s the only real alternative to the regime. It deliberately targets the country’s largest party after its electoral breakthroughs.
With sustained, uncontrolled mass migration overwhelming towns and cities, emptying the country’s state welfare coffers and causing upticks in violent crime, AfD’s firm border policies have clearly struck a chord with fed-up Germans. Silencing their candidates muzzles the growing demand for national sovereignty.
The Nieder-Olm scandal reveals how the Brussels-aligned elite in Germany are desperately clinging to power. Real democrats demand AfD be allowed to contest elections without interference.
Germany desperately needs leaders who put German citizens and Western Civilization first, not ones who bend the knee to the EU’s anti-European dictates. These repressive measures only deepen public contempt for an increasingly authoritarian system.
