Above the law: Austrian politicians not subject their own Corona dictates

It has become quite grotesque to see how little their dictatorial measures apply to them: The Austrian ruling class do not have to suffer the consequences of their Corona policies. This was the case when the President of the National Council, Wolfgang Sobotka (ÖVP), flew to a funeral in Italy without a PCR test. In fact, the parliamentary administration had asked the police at Linz Airport not to carry out any Corona checks on Sobotka.

    The Parliamentary Directorate explained Sobotka’s behavior: “The business trips reported by the Parliamentary Directorate by the President of the National Council are not legally subject to the application of the Covid Entry Ordinance”. It was also added that Sobotka was “vaccinated” four times.

    This ridiculous answer does not explain how it was possible to circumvent the 2G+ regulation, which applies to all Austrian citizens, even for “business trips”, but it was simply ignored by the Parliamentary Directorate. While Austrians have been subject to compulsory masks, tests and repeated vaccinations, top politicians can apparently do as they please with impunity.

    Ordinary citizens have shouldered the horror measures taken by the government, such as a series of compulsory dangerous injections, incessant testing and even by wearing several FFP2 masks at once. Even with a 10-fold booster, normal mortals would probably not be able to take a flight without the legally required valid PCR test. A PCR or antigen test is also required for entry into Italy.

    State funeral of vaccinated European Parliament President after immune failure

    Sobotka’s flight to a state funeral in Italy is said to have taken place on January 14. Only now has it become known in the media what had happened at the airport in Hörsching. “Why is Sobotka travelling without Covid control?” border control staff wondered.

    Sobotka was not tested, neither on the flight to the funeral of the President of the European Parliament, David Sassoli , nor on the return flight. Sassoli, who was reportedly previously treated with the experimental shots, suffered pneumonia last September. In January he died at the age of 65 due to the failure of his immune system in an Italian hospital. The progressive Sassoli was an advocate of jabs, had declared a climate emergency at the World Economic Forum in Davos in January 2020 and urged “transition”. He had evidently been schooled in the newspeak clichés of Agenda 2030.

    Sobotka is not the only one

    Chancellor Nehammer takes his voters for fools, initially lying about his whereabouts on New Year’s Eve and then about his infection. Twitter

    Sobotka is not the first top politician to attract attention with such privileges in the midst of ever stricter Corona measures. After the New Year, Chancellor Karl Nehammer’s image took a nosedive when it was revealed that he had been partying maskless with dozens of friends crammed in a small ski hut in Carinthia after he had pretended he would skip celebrations because of Omicron. He had vowed to spend the evening alone with his dog.

    The Chancellery insisted that the infection did not take place in the ski hut when Nehammer suddenly tested positive. The photo was taken on December 29, his spokesman Daniel Kosak claimed on Twitter. The infection took place after Nehammer’s return from vacation on Tuesday.

    According to the current state of research, the period between an infection with the Corona virus and its first detectability (latency period) is estimated at 2.5 to 4 days. The Robert Koch Institute (RKI) assumes a latency period of 3 days. A period of 4 to 9 days is assumed until the first symptoms appear (incubation period).

    His unsolicited declaration that he was infected by a security guard on Wednesday evening raised more questions than it answered. As a result, all sorts of special rules suddenly applied to him and his entourage.

    Faking injections

    Already in November, Eva-Maria Himmelbauer (ÖVP) shocked with her attaching a fake vaccination card sticker in broad daylight, during a National Council session. Caught on ORF cameras, she was spotted attaching a vaccination batch sticker to her yellow vaccination card and told Wochenblick that it was a “flu vaccination”.

    When Wochenblick asked for a photo as proof of  her statement, Himmelbauer ignored the request. And even though she was caught red-handed, she has never faced the consequences of her actions. If, on the other hand, Austrian citizens are suspected of cheating with the Corona jab certificates, they have to fear brutal persecution by the authorities and up to two years in prison if they are convicted of falsifying documents.

    DESTRUCTIVE HAILSTORMS will become more frequent and violent with increasingly larger hail, predicted solar researcher Valentina Zharkova back in 2019 when she stated that it's one of many signs of an impending Grand Solar Minimum. This is exactly what we have witnessed this year in both Europe and the world. Here is the German town of Benediktbeuern in Bavaria after a hailstorm on August 26th. Almost all rooftops and cars were damaged. The centuries-old church and monastery were damaged for the first time ever. Interestingly, the monastery was rebuilt in 1699 during the Maunder Minimum. Combined with heavy rainfall, extreme weather will devastate a significant portion of our food production. For instance, heavy rainfall destroyed a quarter of all crops in Greece in just two days in September. However, mainstream media remains silent. Photo: X @safe0007/Sandor Feher

    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.

    NATIONALIST COLLABORATION TAKES SHAPE. Six parties met in Budapest on August 26th to sign a joint declaration confirming the friendship and political unity among the parties. The goal is to either form a new group in the European Parliament after the EU elections in June next year or to reconstitute the existing Identity and Democracy (ID) group with the new parties. Pictured from left to right: Mikael Jansson (Alternative for Sweden), Thierry Baudet (Forum for Democracy, Netherlands), László Toroczkai (Mi Hazánk, Hungary), Kostadin Kostadinov (Vazrazhdane, Bulgaria), and Josef Nerušil (Svoboda a přímá demokracie, Czech Republic).

    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.

    Turkey Believes Sweden Hasn’t Done Enough

    Sweden will have to wait a bit longer for NATO membership, according to Turkey's Justice Minister Jilmaz Tunc. First, Sweden must extradite the "terrorists" Turkey wants and stop the desecration of the Quran.

    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. However, it has met its match in the Swedish air defense missile system RBS 70, which has quickly led to significant losses for the Russian helicopter forces.

    Alternative for Germany held its conference during the last weekend of July in the thousand-year-old city of Magdeburg, located by the Elbe River in the eastern German state of Saxony. The first of the two conference days began with a strong program speech by the party's male spokesperson. Subsequently, party officials were elected and motions were addressed. The second day was entirely devoted to candidate selection and positioning for the EU election in June next year. Screenshot: AfD on Facebook

    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.

    Maximilian Krah is one of the AfD politicians who is singled out as an ethnonationalist, as he has stated that there is a distinction between ethnic Germans and immigrants who have obtained German citizenship. Krah is a Member of the European Parliament and AfD's top candidate for the upcoming European Union election next year. Still image: AfD on Facebook

    The Establishment Wants to Ban Germany’s Second Largest Party – for the Sake of Democracy

    The rising popularity of AfD has raised strong concerns within the establishment. Despite lies and demonization in the media and isolation from the overall political establishment, the party continues to grow. Certain representatives of the party are accused of becoming increasingly "extreme," and in an unusual move, the influential weekly newspaper Der Spiegel demanded that AfD be "banned."

    FvD was quick to support the protests against covid restrictions. Today, the party also stands behind the farmers protests against the governments’ plans to close a big portion of the farms in the country for the sake of “climate”. The picture is from a protest against covid restrictions in Amsterdam in January of last year. Photo: Wion

    The Ursula von der Leyen Affair

    After a criminal complaint in Belgium against the President of the European Commission, the so-called SMS-case, now takes a new turn. The judge responsible for the investigation will likely gain access to the secret messages exchanged between Ursula von der Leyen and Albert Bourla, CEO of Pfizer, at least if they haven't been deleted.

    Publisher of Unique Literature Worldwide Blocked by International Distributor

    Arktos has distinguished itself by publishing groundbreaking philosophers and social critics. Now, the publisher's international distributor has abruptly terminated the cooperation, and more than 400 already printed titles cannot reach their audience. There is strong evidence that the distributor has been under pressure, something that has also happened in Sweden. We have spoken with Arktos founder Daniel Friberg about the ongoing struggle for freedom of speech in a shrinking cultural corridor.

    Care prompts bishops to criticize transgender ideology

    The Catholic bishops of the Scandinavian countries presented an open five-page letter criticizing transgender ideology on March 21, just before Easter. The document primarily expresses care and advice and was read aloud in Catholic churches in Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and Iceland. Cardinal Anders Arborelius, Bishop of Stockholm, is one of the signatories of the document.
