Warum verbreiten ARD+ZDF russische Propaganda-Bilder?
Gestern Abend schaffte es wieder fabrizierter russischer Bullshit in 🇩🇪Hauptnachrichten:
Angebliche Bilder von Drohnen, die Putins unehelichen Kinder samt Ponyhof in seiner Residenz angegriffen haben sollen.
Wann ist endlich damit genug?

When it comes time to write the history of Europe in this period, there will be one area of consensus. One of the greatest errors European states ever made, was in trusting the USA.

Erste Münchner Schule verbietet Zahnstocher - kein Scherz
Mehrere Siebtklässler werden erwischt, wie sie auf den kleinen Holzstäbchen herumkauen. Das Schulpersonal schreitet unverzüglich ein – denn Mundhygiene hatten die Jugendlichen offenbar nicht im Sinn.

Video, I believe recorded off of local TV, of a bystander disarming one of the two killers.

The EU discourse is perfect because there's something in it for everyone. First of all, the European Union genuinely does have a lot of problems. But more importantly, a lot of people hate it for largely unrelated and often contradictory reasons. It's a great enemy
