“Local leaders and potential candidates from the far-right AUR party will be required to take a lie detector test to verify their loyalty to the party before the 9 June elections.”
“It will serve as an ‘integrity test’ to showcase the party’s commitment to transparency before the electorate while also scrutinising the loyalty of its members, Dan Tănasă told Romania’s B1 TV on Monday morning. 'When you go to war, you have to ensure team cohesion’, Tănasă explained.”
All perfectly normal in fash trash land.

The EIC website has not been updated yet, but NRC just published another article on their investigation into Alp Services, a Swiss private lobby firm that worked on behalf of the United Arab Emirates with a massive disinformation campaign against muslims in Europe.

Justitie onderzoekt Zwitsers lobbykantoor dat de reputaties van ruim duizend Europese moslims probeerde te vernietigen

“[…] Correctiv has looked into the cases of 48 members of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, many of whom are accused of brutal physical attacks, verbal assault and incitement to hatred.
At least 28 have been investigated by the German judiciary and have either been sentenced in a court of first instance or have been issued penalty orders, which they can still appeal. But despite the legal cases against them, many are still lawmakers in the German Bundestag, state parliaments or local councils.”
It's a feature, not a bug.

Germany's far-right AfD polling high, despite legal scrutiny
Experts have said Germany's far-right AfD party is becoming more tolerant of its radical members, even if they are accused of committing criminal offenses. This hasn't dented its support in certain parts of the country.Hans Pfeifer (Deutsche Welle)
Two fash trash 'conservative’ conferences this month, here in Europe. One in Brussels, which Suella Braverman will attend, along with a who's who of bigoted assholes, including Orbán, and one in Budapest, the European CPAC, which Geert Wilders will attend.

Here's another reminder that, under fascism, it doesn't matter whether it's 'against the constitution’, because the courts, if they are still in good shape, which they often aren’t, will simply get overwhelmed with cases brought by assholes, or by fash trash with deep pockets who can afford to tie things up for years.
The average person, especially if a minority, still loses, because they can't hold their breath that long.
It's a gradual degradation, slowly moving the window one nudge at a time.
Pay attention, people.

“Six former Mississippi law enforcement officers – prosecutors said the group called themselves the “Goon Squad” – who tortured and abused two Black men in a racist attack were sentenced to between 15 and 45 years in prison on Wednesday.
Brett Morris McAlpin, […], was sentenced to 20 years. Christian Dedmon was sentenced to 25 years. Jeffrey Middleton and Daniel Opdyke were both sentenced to 20 years, while Hunter Elward was sentenced to 45 years and Joshua Hartfield was sentenced to 15 years.”

“Two far-right conspiracy theorists will pay up to $1.25m in fines for launching a robocall campaign to discourage Black New York voters from participating in the 2020 election, the New York attorney general announced on Tuesday.
Jacob Wohl, of Irvine, California, and Jack Burkman, of Arlington, Virginia, were found liable in March 2023 for targeting about 5,500 Black voters as part of the robocall scheme.”

“The unveiling of the candidate list, which occurred in Târgoviște, near the tomb of Vlad Țepeș (Vlad the Impaler), featured the pervasive use of Țepeș’s imagery by the far-right party. Simion claimed the party’s role as defenders of European Christian civilisation, drawing comparisons between Țepeș’s struggles and the party’s mission to combat ‘globalists’ and ‘Satanists’ in Brussels.”
Former glory, under threat from the woke devil-worshippers, yada yada. Add another one to the list.

Meanwhile, in the Netherlands, the security services are finally giving some decent weight to the threat posed by ‘sovereign citizens’;
“Some of the tens of thousands of people in the Netherlands, who believe in the concept of an ‘evil elite’ and refuse to recognise the state or the rule of law, are prepared to use violence, the Dutch counter terrorism unit NCTV warned on Tuesday.”
There's strong links to far right politicians and their parties, and likely also to the terror farmers.

“Asio says violent rightwing extremists are still being inspired by the Christchurch mosque shooting massacre carried out by an Australian man in 2019, warning of an uptick in activity from hate groups who want to trigger a so called ‘race war’.”
“It said the ideologically motivated cohort, made up predominantly of rightwing extremists […], ‘are more likely to focus on recruitment and radicalisation rather than attack planning in the foreseeable future’ but it warned of changing trends.”

Christian lobbyist, meanwhile;“The Australian Christian Lobby’s chief executive, Michelle Pearse, made a submission critical of the inquiry itself. She claimed its terms of reference ‘can be construed as inviting the creation of legal weaponry to benefit radical far-left elements antagonistic towards those who hold more conservative political opinions, with a view to silencing their opposition’.”

“Large numbers of Americans who have bought guns over the past four years or who regularly carry their loaded weapons in public are willing to engage in political violence, even to the extent of shooting a perceived opponent, a new mega-survey has found.
The study of almost 13,000 Americans, drawn from across the US and weighted for demographics, provides alarming evidence of the openness of certain types of gun owners to the idea – and possibly the practice – of violence as a political act.”
