The film and theater actress Eva Herzig, who is well-known for the ARD crime series Steirerkrimi, does not want to be vaccinated – and now she has lost her job because she refused. ARD is the abbreviation for the working group of public broadcasters of the Federal Republic of Germany, a joint organisation of Germany’s regional public-service broadcasters.
Herzig, who has also played in the very popular crime series SOKO Leipzig, SOKO Kitzbühel and SOKO Cologne, wrote in a Facebook post: “The time has come, the VOLUNTARY VACCINATION has reached me too. If I don’t get vaccinated, I won’t be able to shoot another Styrian thriller. In the fall, a new series will start without me. I expected it, but the news hit me anyway.”
The vaccination is experimental, according to her. She has also “read too many reports about vaccination damage” and the “long-term consequences of a vaccination are not yet clear”. Herzig told Bild am Sonntag that the decision she had made not to be vaccinated was nevertheless not an easy one. Mainly because she would no longer be part of the next series of the popular thrillers. “This means that I give up an income that I have firmly planned for,” she told the newspaper.
“I am a single mother of two children, who of course I have to look after. But I cannot and will not give in. Therefore I will not get vaccinated, no matter what I am threatened with.”
The responsible production company Allegro Film justified the step by citing a “duty of care” towards the employees. They told the Bild am Sonntag: “In a production like the ‘Steirerkrimis’ there are around 50 people on the set, for whom we as the production company are responsible. This includes urgently and without a doubt that everything that could endanger the health of employees is to be avoided.”
The professional association of the German cinema and television landscape Bundesverband Schauspiel apparently sees no need for action. The deputy chairman Hans-Werner Meyer is quoted in the paper as follows: “We trust the recommendations of the Standing Vaccination Commission. And they say: Get vaccinated.”

NOAA Predicts Zero Sunspots for Almost the Whole 2030s
CLIMATEThe United States' government scientific organization, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), predicts zero sunspots from 2031 to 2040. This is an extreme situation that has not occurred in as long as humanity has been counting sunspots, and it leads us into uncharted territory in terms of our solar system. However, this prediction aligns with the warnings of the world-renowned solar researcher Valentina Zharkova for many years, who indicated in 2019 various signs of this catastrophic phenomenon, including the extreme hailstorms we have seen in Europe and the world this summer. The forecast and various observations this year give cause for very significant concern. In this unique analysis, Free West Media explains why.
European Nationalist Parties Forge Cooperation Ahead of EU Elections
EUROPEAN ELECTIONSOn Saturday, August 26, representatives of six European nationalist parties gathered in Budapest. The meeting was initiated by the Hungarian party Mi Hazánk and took place in the national parliament. Representatives of the parties signed a joint declaration that not only reaffirms the parties' friendship but also their unity on a range of complex political issues. A surprisingly clear and radical manifesto was established. The hope is that this cooperation will lead to success in the EU elections and eventually result in the formation of a group in the European Parliament. For Swedish nationalism, this meeting marks a success as Sweden, for the first time, has a party represented in a leading nationalist cooperation in Europe. Free West Media was present at this historic event.

Swedish Weapon Takes Down Russia’s Best Attack Helicopter
The Russian attack helicopter Ka-52 is considered one of the world's best and has struck fear in Ukraine, where it has hunted down tanks and other armored vehicles, often beyond the range of many light anti-aircraft systems.

The Sun Drives Earth’s Climate, Not Carbon Dioxide
Top Researchers Push Back Against Climate Lies."The correlation is as clear as day," explained the Israeli astrophysicist Nir Shaviv, who was hailed by the establishment, before his interview with Forbes was hastily deleted. What he says contradicts the climate narrative, which points to humans as responsible for Earth's climate. Shaviv firmly asserts that it is the sun that controls the climate, something that can be scientifically proven in many ways. Contrary to the popular belief, the sun's influence on Earth has, in recent years, caused unusually cold and rainy weather, a trend that solar researchers warn will worsen significantly in the coming decades. The sun has exhibited an unusually low activity since 2016, during Solar Cycle 24, which was the weakest in a century.
Strong Confidence in German AfD
Alternative for Germany (AfD) held a party conference on July 29-30 to select candidates for the upcoming EU election next year. EU Parliament member Maximilian Krah, belonging to the party's more radical, ethnonationalist faction, was appointed as the top candidate. The party's two spokespersons delivered powerful speeches criticizing the EU's failed migration policy and trade sanctions that isolate Europe and Germany from the rest of the world. They argued that it's time for the EU to return a significant portion of its power to national parliaments. However, they have dropped the demand for Germany to exit the EU.
