Decriminalise abortion amendment: US groups push #anti-abortion agenda in UK

A right-wing political and media ecosystem pushing a US-style anti-abortion agenda is gaining traction in the UK

Their campaigns in the UK are based on strategies honed and perfected in the US.

They use language shaped over decades to seed anti-abortion #falsehoods that begin on social media before becoming talking points on conservative-friendly TV stations modelled on right-wing US news channels and far-right podcasts. Crucially, those behind the campaigns also invest millions of dollars to push their agenda in the UK.

ISW: Russia exploiting far-right #nationalism in Europe against Ukraine

Russia is taking advantage of European far-right nationalist movements' increasingly vocal claims to Ukrainian #territory, the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reported in its daily assessment on Jan. 29.

Far-right movements in #Hungary and #Romania raised concern this past week after party leaders in their respective countries claimed parts of Ukrainian territory.

#Macron accused of doing far-right’s bidding with passage of stricter immigration law

French President Emmanuel Macron is under renewed fire after urging his minority government to vote for a strengthened immigration bill that was endorsed by the far right. The late Tuesday vote, which divided Macron's coalition MPs and prompted his health minister to resign a day later, was heralded by far-right leader Marine Le Pen as an “ideological victory” upon its passage.

Reichsbürger: German far-right extremists charged with planning violent coup

🔶️ German prosecutors have charged 27 suspected far-right extremists with planning a violent coup.

🔶️ The suspects are accused of membership of the fringe Reichsbürger - or Citizens of the Reich - movement.

🔶️ "The members of the group strongly rejected state institutions and the free democratic constitutional order," according to the indictment.

🔶️ They are mostly associates of Heinrich XIII Prince Reuss, a Reichsbürger figurehead from an aristocratic family.

🔶️ Prosecutors have charged the 27 people with planning to overthrow Germany's democratic political system.

🔶️ Concrete preparations were made for a coup beginning in summer 2021.

🔶️ Prince Reuss was planned to be head of state. On taking office, he would negotiate a peace treaty with the Allied powers which won World War II. Prince Reuss tried to meet representatives of the Russian government to gain support for the coup, according to prosecutors.

🔶️ Birgit Malsack-Winkemann, then a member of the Bundestag for the far-right Alternative for Germany party, would have been made justice minister. Prosecutors said she granted access to parliamentary buildings to other co-conspirators.

🔶️ According to the Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Germany's domestic intelligence agency, there are about 23,000 followers of the Reichsbürger movement in the country.

‘The far right drummed up a militia’: French extremists seize on teen’s murder to stoke violence

It all started with the tragic death of a teenage boy attending a village dance in southern France. Although the circumstances surrounding his death remain unclear, members of France’s ultra-right immediately blamed it on “anti-French” sentiment, descending on the region en masse to avenge his death.

A Vulnerable Europe Warily Watches Rising Far Right

Poland’s Confederation Liberty and Independence party, which is enjoying double-digit support in the polls, looks set to sway the outcome of what next month promises to be one of the tightest elections since the end of communism. The popularity of a party that opposes immigration and abortion and attacks the EU is not just a Polish phenomenon. Disruptors from the far-right are gaining traction across Europe, profiting from resentment born out of the pandemic, the cost-of-living crisis and the economic toll from the war in Ukraine. A mix of nationalists and parties with neo-Nazi roots to euroskeptics and Donald Trump-style populists, polls show they now place among the top three most popular political groups in almost half of the EU.

Joel Davis offers his thoughts on the possibility of banning the ADL.

I am not a fan of ADL but these fascists pretending to promote free speech calling for banning the group and the apartheid chils #Musk supporting them is yet another proof that X-Twitter has become the main platform of the extreme right and fascists.

Deutsche Welle: German intelligence service targets former boss — report

— "A former president of #Germany's Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), Hans-Georg Maassen, is under investigation by his former agency, the German newspaper #Bild reported on Wednesday.

Maassen, who was removed from his post after appearing to downplay far-right violence against migrants, is a member of former Chancellor Angela #Merkel's center-right Christian Democrats (CDU).

Maassen was forced from his post as the president of Germany's domestic intelligence service in 2018 after he appeared to dismiss the seriousness of apparent right-wing violence in the eastern city of Chemnitz."

Deutsche Welle: German intel: AfD taken over by extremist factions

— "The head of #Germany's domestic intelligence agency has warned that the Alternative for Germany (AfD) has become increasingly extremist and anti-democratic as the far-right party, surging in opinion polls, picks new candidates for #EU elections.

Thomas Haldenwang, president of Germany's Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), told the #DPA news agency that some of the #AfD candidates had expressed "far-right extremist conspiracy theories" during the party conference in Magdeburg, where the selections were made over the weekend.

Haldenwang said party members were swapping openly racist theories such as the "Great Replacement," which holds that political elites are deliberately introducing nonwhite migrants into Europe to supplant the white race."

French extreme right is using the current events to mobilize and militarize their hooligans in the name of "protecting the public".

Grouos of vigilante patrol the streets of various cities armed with baseball bats, batongs and bicycle chains. There has been some unconfirmed reports of the groups attacking anyone looking "like a rioter" i.e. anyone from north Africa or Muslim.

This is a really sad development that can lead to an even more excavation of the violent events across France.

Unfortunately, the French government seems to be too busy fighting the imigrnts and Antifa than containing and stopping these faacist criminals.
This is how far right American telegram channel describes them:

Nationalists patrolling the streets of Chambéry tonight protecting property and businesses from rioting mobs.
