Peter Borbe criticized Markus Söder's statement regarding the BMW affair concerning a denied leasing contract for the President of the State Parliament of Saxony-Anhalt. Söder had said on "Miosga" that the AfD could not care less, as they would rather drive Russian Ladas.

Emanuel Boeminghaus criticized that the CDU is dealing with the statements of a Civey poll expert regarding the mood in the country, a speech by 86-year-old former Federal President Joachim Gauck, and a renewed debate about the fire wall at their retreat meeting. Meanwhile, the promise of prosperity in the country is increasingly being called into question, he wrote. Boeminghaus urged the party to focus more on the economy, growth, and prosperity. Then it might have to deal less with polling figures, he argued. Instead, the CDU continues to go in circles politically and is beyond help. Even "Grandpa Kurt" might soon lose the desire to vote for them, he wrote. https://t.co/Eq6P5aMAij #CDU #Wirtschaft #Wohlstand (translated)

The Hayek Club Weimar described socialism as a beneficial business model for politicians. State benefits and subsidies created dependency and thus secured voter support, the account wrote. Politicians would thereby become suppliers and citizens clients. In contrast, capitalism posed a threat to the political class, argued the Hayek Club Weimar, because it rewarded personal responsibility, innovation, and private initiative, making people more independent of the state. Regulations intended to tame the market served, according to the account, to limit competition and protect established interests. The account also accused politicians of portraying capitalism as unjust and antisocial while presenting the state as a moral authority. The state did not want free individuals but dependent subjects, wrote the Hayek Club Weimar, linking its criticism to calls for freedom and property as well as a rejection of taxes and state coercion. #FreiheitstattKnechtschaft #SteuernsindRaub #Eigentum #Freiheit #ParasitenwegmitEuremZwang #Freiheit #Kapitalismus #Sozialismus (translated)

Furkan Yildirim wrote that the US Treasury could auction fewer long-term government bonds as early as November and possibly discontinue the 20-year term altogether. According to Yildirim, Citigroup expects Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent to announce a $3 billion reduction in auctions for 20- and 30-year bonds each on November 4. The financing gap is to be closed with government securities maturing within a year at the latest. The department may also ask large banks next week whether pension funds now prefer bonds from Amazon, Meta, and Alphabet to those of the state. The 20-year bond was reintroduced in 2020 after a 34-year hiatus and now offers nearly 5.7 percent interest, more than any other US maturity. At the end of 2020, its yield was just under 1.5 percent. At the same time, Alphabet, Amazon, Meta, Microsoft, Oracle, and SpaceX had already issued dollar bonds amounting to more than $180 billion in 2026; according to Yildirim, Amazon's bonds extend to 2076. According to asset manager TwentyFour, which Yildirim cited, Japanese investors are now receiving enough interest at home to invest their money there. Citi strategist Jason Williams wrote that pension funds may currently be more inclined than usual to invest in long-term corporate bonds of good quality. However, BNP Paribas strategists doubted that smaller auctions would reduce the government's financing costs. Yildirim also pointed out that the yield on 10-year US bonds serves as a basis for mortgages and many other loans, and Bessent had referred to it as an important measure of his success. With an annual deficit of nearly $2 trillion, the debt burden continues to grow as competition for long-term buyers increases. #Finanzen #Anleihen #Wirtschaft (translated)

Regina Laska wrote that Henry Lindo had sent her a screenshot in the morning, in which Russia complained about Ukrainian hacker groups. The name "LASKA" had also appeared in it, which jokingly led her to check her intelligence connections. According to Laska, her namesakes were working with the Ukrainian military intelligence and, according to their information, had significantly weakened Russia's defense industry and obtained important information. Kyrylo Budanov awarded them the Bohdan Khmelnytskyi Order of the 3rd Class for this. The announcement was dated March 4, 2025, her 60th birthday, she wrote. Laska noted that "Láska" means love in Czech. She added jokingly that her future complaints about Putin should be treated with caution before asking Moneypenny for coffee. #Laska #Ukraine #Russland (translated)

Konrad Schuller contradicted Ralf Stegner and wrote that Gerhard Schröder's appearance does not bring peace closer, but has the opposite effect. The buddy-like staging makes Vladimir Putin appear like a friendly uncle, downplays his crimes and helps him with murder, because Schröder's supporters find him likable and do not take action against him. #Politik #Frieden #Putin (translated)
