The AfD is a right-wing extremist group, German intelligence agency says.

Germany’s domestic intelligence agency has officially classified the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as a “proven right-wing extremist organisation”. It now has definitive evidence that the party works against Germany’s democratic system.

The classification opens the door to deeper surveillance.

“Hegseth’s rhetoric about perceived ‘internal’ or ‘domestic enemies’, along with media reports highlighting his tattoo of the crusader motto ‘Deus Vult’, may ring alarm bells for those concerned by Donald Trump’s repeated threats to unleash the US military, which Hegseth would directly control, on those he has described as ‘the enemy within’.”

I found myself parked behind a 'sovereign citizen' today. Believers in this particular flavor of sovereign craziness hold that the US government is illegitimate and that they are immune from federal, state, and local laws under the 1786 Moroccan–American Treaty of Friendship -- a treaty that supposedly grants them sovereignty. Including, obviously, the right to display this fake license plate.
