Karoline Schuch blickt besorgt auf Landtagswahlen im Osten - Hubu.de - News & FreeMail
Schauspielerin Karoline Schuch hat ein zwiegespaltenes Verhältnis zu ihren ostdeutschen Wurzeln. "Ich habe das Gefühl, dass sich alles viel unsicherer anfühlt als in meiner Jugendzeit", sagte die 44-Jährige den Zeitungen der Funke-Mediengruppe.
Chuck DarwinDemocracy experts believe there is no longer any doubt about Trump’s desire to interfere with this fall’s elections.
“We should not be waiting for the next shoe to drop,”
said Wendy Weiser, vice-president for democracy at the Brennan Center for Justice.
🆘“There is a full-blown effort to seize control of some of the mechanisms of our elections and to lay the foundation for interfering in upcoming elections.”
The president has no power over federal elections,
and the US constitution is not ambiguous on the matter.
Article I, section 4 of the document gives states the power to run elections.
Congress, the constitution says, can pass nationwide rules for federal elections.
Nonetheless, Trump and his allies have suggested the president may still be able to wield some kind of emergency power to take control of the electoral process.
“The president’s authority is limited in his role with regard to elections except where there is a threat to the national sovereignty of the United States
– as I think that we can establish with the porous system that we have,”
#Cleta #Mitchell, a conservative lawyer and Trump ally said on a podcast interview last year.
⚠️“Then, I think maybe the president is thinking he will exercise some emergency powers to protect the federal elections going forward.”
Declaring a national emergency unlocks about 150 statutory powers for the president, including things like shutting down radio stations, suspending certain military regulations, and to sanction foreign countries.
But none of those powers “even come close to giving the president any authority over elections”, Weiser said.
“The president has zero emergency powers over elections.”
The concern about the president using emergency powers has only been amplified by the presence of #Tulsi #Gabbard, the director of national intelligence, at the Fulton county raid.
Gabbard, whose presence as an intelligence official on a domestic matter has caused widespread outrage, is said to be investigating voting equipment and foreign interference.
Among others, Gabbard is briefing Mitchell and #Kurt #Olsen, another lawyer who was involved in Trump’s effort to overturn the election, on her investigation, the Wall Street Journal reported.
Mitchell declined to comment on those briefings, but said she understood Trump’s comments to be more about the need to change federal voting laws.
“All of the election statutes need significant revision, updating, and reform. And many of us are working on that,” Mitchell said in an email. “Clearly there are far too many election officials nationwide who treat the law as optional suggestions. And have instituted procedures that are contrary to law. That happened in spades in 2020 and is all too common every election. Sloppy, poor administration and intentional disregard of basic statutory requirements. We see it everywhere.”
There is no evidence of widespread fraud in 2020 or in any other election.
The White House press secretary, #Karoline #Leavitt, has framed Trump’s comments similarly.
Trump subsequently undercut those efforts to downplay his comments,
criticizing Democratic cities such as Philadelphia, Detroit and Atlanta, saying:
🔥“If they can’t count the votes legally and honestly, then somebody else should take over.”
Beyond unspecified actions to take control of state election processes, there are other pathways for Trump to try to interfere in the election process.
#Steve #Bannon, the influential conservative personality and former Trump strategist, has called for Trump to deploy ICE agents at the polls.
Such an effort would violate a federal law that prohibits federal troops from being at the polls “unless such force be necessary to repel armed enemies of the United States”.
❌“We’re going to have ICE surround the polls come November.
We’re not going to sit here and allow you to steal the country again,”
Bannon said on his podcast on Tuesday.
“And you can whine and cry and throw your toys out of the pram all you want, but we will never again allow an election to be stolen.”
The Trump administration has already shown its willingness to use emergency powers to try to expand the president’s authority.
Last spring, the Trump administration invoked the
💥"Alien Enemies Act",
an 18th-century law that allows the government to deport immigrants without full due process.
The United States, the government argued, was subject to an invasion by the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
Federal judges have since blockedthat order and expressed skepticism it is a legitimate invasion.
Trump has also claimed he has emergency powers to impose tariffs, though the supreme court appears poised to reject that argument.
Part of the reason Trump is talking about nationalizing elections now may be to try to get the public to accept an idea that is obviously illegal.
The News Lens
While the pictures of Trump flanked by underage girls are hard to look at,
it’s disturbing in another way to see how women who want to earn power from him feel they must look now.
In 2025,
💥“Mar-a-Lago face”
entered the lexicon,
a term used to describe the combination of plastered-on makeup and aggressive plastic surgery
that makes women look like inflatable sex dolls,
as Trump’s apparent sexual tastes have morphed MAGA aesthetics into something inhuman.
The year ended with a Vanity Fair photographer capturing a close-up portrait of 28-year-old White House press secretary
#Karoline #Leavitt that appears to show visible injection spots on her lips.
Billionaire #Elon #Musk,
the self-proclaimed “First Buddy.” also invited the world to take a closer look at his sexual proclivities in 2025,
having installed himself in government to run the pseudo-agency Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) while proclaiming he would destroy the
“woke mind virus.”
Musk wants everyone to think it’s progressives who are weird,
mostly because they accept trans people.
Instead, we learned that he has a fetish for impregnating women,
which he justifies with an even stranger claim to be single-handedly battling the imaginary threat of depopulation.
Musk frequently hits up strangers on X to ask if they’re interested in having his babies
— of which he has at least 14 already.
If they’re game or greedy enough to say yes, he reportedly tends to forgo the typical impregnation technique
— which most people cite as the most fun part of the process
— in favor of having a doctor do it for him with IVF.
Musk’s kink swept through MAGA.
🔥To hear movement leaders talk,
it’s a woman’s duty to be pregnant as often as possible,
ideally non-stop.
“#Tradwife” content that fetishized female submission and over-the-top fecundity was everywhere in right-wing bubbles in 2025.
When pop star Taylor Swift became engaged to NFL star Travis Kelce,
Charlie Kirk ranted that she needed to
“submit to her husband”
and “have lots of children.”
🔥MAGA media was also awash in disinformation painting birth control as dangerous and unnatural,
enabling the Trump administration to destroy millions of dollars worth of contraception,
rather than let poor women have it.
Nearly all women who have sex with men use contraception at least some of the time.
But in 2025, MAGA was infected with online ideologies like “#incel”
— short for “involuntary celibacy”
— and the “#redpill,”
a misogynist worldview that treats dating as a dominance battle between men and women,
instead of a shared activity.
It’s why Nick Fuentes professes pride at being a virgin.
The online right is flooded with sexually dysfunctional straight men
who argue that their romantic woes aren’t due to their own failures,
but because feminism has “ruined” women.
Bored, angry men are a lucrative audience, so it makes sense that the grifter-heavy right would churn out endless content appealing to the bruised egos of these malcontents.
But their dysfunction is seeping into politics in ways that are increasingly distorting and dangerous.
The phrase that cinched this bizarre, inverted worldview in 2025 was
“#sexual #matador.”
Technically, it was coined in late 2024 by Fox News’ Jesse Watters to describe Stephen Miller,
who now serves as White House deputy chief of staff.
But the term got new life in September when Miller’s wife Katie repeated the phrase on Fox News in a moment that was too confusing to be upsetting to anyone outside of the bizarre world of MAGA sexuality.
On some level, it seems they were trolling Stephen Miller,
who by conventional standards does not exactly exude sexual magnetism.

Luca da FirenzeAlthough I think #Karoline #Leavitt is a fanatic psychopath
to be objective
Leavitt has the most disgusting job in ALL of the #Trump 'administration'
Individuals like #Miller show up when they want
then they hide back the shadows
but Leavitt
she has to defend the indefensible shit every day
and put her face on it...
it is REALLY the worst job.
(ask the 'alternative fact' lady #Kellyanne #Conway... 🤣)
