    Politico is owned by the German Axel Springer group (Bild) and the Telegraph… also! Since march 2026. Don’t cite these papers, they are dangerously right-wing, pro-Trump, pro maga, pro Israel, … and zero objective. They have slithered even further right, and will soon embrace the AFD.

      I’m convinced that a year or so ago they got into a fake spat with Trump to try and regain their credibility. They have been some of the most virulently centrist sources at best, and 100% complicit at worst.

      I hope their owners genuinely awful existences, they deserve every ounce of suffering they are causing in the world, and their journalists are low integrity and should know continuing to stay at a propaganda firm is going to tank their credibility.

        Die Welt is owned by the same group, it was always conservative, but OK, I read it to get a different viewpoint and opinion. My arse! These days you can’t even use it to wipe your … uh well your arse.
