These opponents of democracy are displaying their ugly faces more and more clearly: the Thuringian state administration office wants to test the AfD politician and election winner Robert Sesselmann for his “suitability for democracy”.
After the reversed election of the Minister President in Thuringia, it is the next attack on the rudimentary democracy in this country: The Thuringian State Administration Office wants to carry out a “democracy check” on the winner of the district council election in the district of Sonneberg, the AfD politician Robert Sesselmann. Thuringia’s SPD Secretary of State for the Interior, Katharina Schenk, told the Deutsche Presse-Agentur that there would be an official review. The background is rules in the Thuringian Local Elections Act.
It states that a person may not be elected as a district administrator “if he or she does not guarantee that he or she will at all times stand up for the free democratic basic order in the sense of the Basic Law and the state constitution”. This is the standard of scrutiny, the SPD official Schenk informed.
The anti-democratic left-wing insanity: In Sesselmann’s case, there are doubts because the Thuringian AfD was classified by the so-called State Office for the Protection of the Constitution – led by the left-wing radical social pedagogue Stephan Kramer, who is a member of the board of trustees of the Amadeu-Antonio-Foundation, led by the ex-Stasi snitch Annetta Kahane, and who insults 20 per cent of the voters as “brown dregs” – as definitely right-wing extremist. It is a case-by-case review, the result is completely open, the statement continues.
The AfD politician and lawyer Robert Sesselmann was elected Germany’s first AfD district councillor on Sunday with 52.8 per cent of the vote in a run-off election.In the comment columns one can read:
"There you go. It's possible to reverse elections. You only have to want to. If I understand correctly, the AfD is allowed to run in elections, but is disqualified if it emerges as the winner. So in every run-off election, the winner is already known. How practical!"
"I would like to know what would come out of a democracy check on Robert Habeck. Question No.1 Mr. Habeck, what is your opinion of Germany?"
"It leaves me speechless. "
