Next German Chancellor Friedrich Merz Causes a Commotion by Questioning the ‘Neutrality’ of Taxpayer-Funded Leftist NGOs – He is Accused of ‘Behaving Like the Far-Right’

A surprising but positive move by Merz against Globalist NGOs.

The historical work by the Donald J. Trump US administration has confirmed that around the world, NGOs and political parties were funded by USAID and the Soros network of foundations to promote the Leftist-Liberal-Globalist agenda.

And in Germany it isn’t any different, as I had the opportunity of writing here in TGP previously.

But it’s quite surprising that Germany’s mainstream ‘conservative’ ‘chancellor-in-waiting’ Friedrich Merz yesterday (26) would try to shed light in these nefarious organizations by fielding hundreds of parliamentary questions.

Merz drew bitching and moaning from the German establishment – including the Olaf Scholz’s party that is expected to be his party coalition partner – for what some see as ‘an attack on German civil society’ (a.k.a. Globalist infiltrators).

Merz is walking a fine line between Trump’s populists and the Globalist establishment.

Reuters reported:

“The 31-page filing, signed by Merz in his capacity as parliamentary leader of the center-right Christian Democrats (CDU), asked the outgoing Social Democrat-led (SPD) government 551 questions on whether civil society groups which had received government funding were politically neutral.”

The Reuters report immediately charges Merz withy being ‘gaffe-prone’, as if this was an ‘accident’.

“The filing also coincides with moves by the Trump administration in the United States against USAID, the world’s largest single funder of civil society groups, which have caused deep unease among political parties and NGOs in Europe.”

One of the groups mentioned in the CDU filing with the Bundestag is ‘Grandmas against the Right’, which organized protests against the Alternative for Germany (AfD) right-wingers and Merz’s CDU voting together to pass a parliamentary motion calling for tighter immigration controls.

“’How much does Grandmas against the Right get from the state?’ asked the legislators. ‘Are there links between Grandmas against the Right and certain parties or political actors?’”

In politics, you must never ask a question that you don’t know the answer to – and Merz knows very well about the ‘Grannies’ – and we know too, as we previously reported on this Bild piece:

“The ‘grannies’ also have their demo coffers topped up by the state. This is according to a response by the federal government to an AfD inquiry from August 2024, which was first reported by ‘NIUS’. According to this, the ‘Grannies against the Right’ have so far collected 18,000 euros from the program ‘Live Democracy’ of Family Minister Lisa Paus, another 5000 euros flowed from the Federal Chancellery to the demo ladies.”

The ’Grannies’ are therefore funded by Minister Lisa Paus from the leftist-Globalist Green party, member of the failed Scholz outgoing coalition, and by the Chancellor himself.

Merz is always bashing the AfD, but only passed his motion for tighter immigration policy thanks to the right-wingers’ votes.

Back to the Reuters report, we learn that other NGOs cited in the filing include Correctiv, an ‘investigative journalism portal.’

“’Tax-supported groups are allowed to exercise influence on public opinion provided they remain neutral with respect to political parties’, said Christian Democrat legislator Mathias Middelberg. ‘With our parliamentary question we want to check if this is the case’.”

The hundreds of questions prompted criticism from the SPD, Merz’s probable partner in a future coalition government, outraged that Merz questions ‘the organizations that defend German democracy’.

The small ‘Left party’ also said that the CDU’s filing was ‘shameful’, comparing it to ‘the methods of the far right’.

Black Lives Matter Activist in Boston Pleads Guilty to Federal Fraud Charges – Scammed Donors to Fund Her Lifestyle

Screencap of YouTube video.

A Black Lives Matter activist in Boston named Monica Cannon-Grant pleaded guilty to federal charges this week, admitting that she scammed donors and used their money to fund her own lavish lifestyle.

Cannon-Grant was previously held up as an admired figure. The city of Boston named her the Bostonian of the year at one point for her ‘social justice activism’ and she was even recognized by the Boston Celtics basketball team for her efforts.

She is now facing a minimum of two years in prison.

The New York Post reports:

BLM-linked activist admits conning donors to fund her lavish lifestyle

A once-celebrated Boston social activist has pleaded guilty to defrauding donors — including Black Lives Matter — out of thousands of dollars that she used as a personal piggy bank.

Monica Cannon-Grant, 44, pleaded guilty Monday to 18 counts of fraud-related crimes that she committed with her late husband while operating their Violence in Boston (VIB) activists group, according to the US Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts.

The activist scammed money — including $3,000 from a BLM group — while claiming it was to help feed children and run protests like one in 2020 over the murder of George Floyd and police violence.

Cannon-Grant also conned her way into getting $100,000 in federal pandemic-related unemployment benefits — which she used to pay off her personal auto loan and car insurance policy.

But she has now confessed to transferring funds to personal bank accounts to pay for rent, shopping sprees, delivery meals, visits to a nail salon — and even a summer vacation to Maryland.

Just amazing.

Here’s a local video report:

She should pay back every penny.

Keith Olbermann Backpedals Furiously With Apology for Threatening CNN’s Scott Jennings – Jennings Responds (VIDEO)

As the Gateway Pundit reported yesterday, former MSNBC host and generally unhinged leftist Keith Olbermann, appeared to threaten CNN’s conservative pundit Scott Jennings on Twitter saying, ‘You’re next motherf**ker.’

Well, Olbermann may have gotten a phone call or a visit from the FBI because today he walked back those comments with a full-throated apology.

RedState has an update:

To quickly recap, Scott Jennings, a Salem Media Network radio host and conservative CNN political commentator, reacted to breaking news on Monday that Kimmel had been reinstated by tweeting, “So basically his employer suspended him for being an insensitive pr**k, and we don’t live in an authoritarian regime? Got it.”

This enraged Olbermann, who proceeded to tweet what many, including Jennings, perceived to be a threat. “You’re next, motherf**ker. But keep mugging to the camera.” Jennings tagged Patel and included a screengrab of the tweets in response.

Though the FBI hasn’t commented as to whether an investigation was launched, Olbermann ostensibly appears to have thought twice about what he tweeted and deleted, apologizing profusely in tweets posted on Tuesday and claiming what he wrote was “misinterpreted”:

See Olbermann’s tweet below:

Scott Jennings, always a class act, offered this hilarious response:

Keith Olbermann really needs help. The guy is just so out of control.

Where is Lance Twiggs? Kirk Assassin’s Transgender Lover Has Vanished

Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson and roommate Lance Twiggs

Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson lived with his transgender partner – a male-to-female trans named Lance “Luna” Twiggs.

The FBI used Robinson’s texts with his transgender partner to solidify that Robinson was the assassin. Lance Twiggs has not been charged with any crime; however, federal authorities are still investigating.

Last week, Utah authorities released the text exchange between Tyler Robinson and his transgender lover, Lance Twiggs, sent shortly after Kirk’s assassination.

Utah County District Attorney Jeff Gray announced seven charges against Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson. They will also be seeking the death penalty.

Robinson was charged with:

– Count 1: Aggravated murder (capital offense)
– Count 2: Felony reckless discharge of a firearm causing bodily injury
– Count 3: Felony obstruction of justice for hiding the firearm
– Count 4: Felony obstruction of justice for discarding the clothing he wore during the shooting
– Count 5: Witness tampering for asking roommate to delete incriminating messages
– Count 6: Witness temperating for demanding trans roommate stay silent, and not speak to police
– Count 7: Commission of a violent offense in the presence of a child

Jeff Gray released the chilling texts between Tyler Robinson and his “love” Lance Twiggs.

Read the text exchange here:

Lance Twiggs was reportedly cooperating with the FBI, however, according to the Daily Mail he has seemingly vanished.

“If [Lance Twiggs] ever comes back, it will be in a body bag,” a neighbor said to the Daily Mail. “That’s not a threat – I’m just saying that there are so many people who want a piece of him he’d be mad to show his face in public again. This was a generational event.”

The Daily Mail reported:

The Trans boyfriend of Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin has fled their former lovenest – and locals tell the Daily Mail they never want to see him again.

Lance Twiggs, 22, was led away for questioning when police swooped on the smart three-bed condo he shared with accused gunman Tyler Robinson, 22.

Shaken neighbors say the part time plumber has not been back to the $320,000 property in St. George, Utah – one declaring: ‘Good riddance. I never want to see either of them again.’

His beaten-up Infinity compact is still parked in his space with his work gear tossed across the back seat and a sandwich wrapper and a drink on the front passenger seat.

Upstairs lights have been left on for more than a week and notes and Amazon packages are piling up outside the home owned by Twiggs’s devout Mormon family.
