Brussels Revokes AfD Lawmaker’s Immunity Over a Tweet

It may sound like a bad April Fool’s joke, but unfortunately, it’s not.

On Tuesday, April 1st, the European Parliament’s plenary voted to remove the diplomatic immunity of four conservative MEPs at the request of national prosecutors. They include two Polish MEPs from PiS (ECR) who are being persecuted by the Tusk government, a Czech MEP from ANO (Patriots) who was already acquitted twice, and a member of the German AfD (ESN)—whose only crime was tweeting an image depicting former and current German leaders doing what appears to be the Nazi salute.


The MEP tweeted a copy of the original pic like the one above less the slogans. It’s a legit pic.

Musk was innocent I am not sure about Merkel’s intent.
