Vice President J.D. Vance was right. Back in February, Vance lectured Germans and Europeans over the retreat of their most fundamental values, including freedom of speech, the right to assemble, and free and fair elections. J.D. Vance called out Germany in a room full of Germans at the Munich Security Conference,
“This very country, where police have carried out raids against citizens suspected of posting anti-feminist comments online as part of ‘combating misogyny’ on the internet."
“There are thousands upon thousands of American troops in Germany today. Do you think that the American taxpayer is going to stand for that, if you get thrown in jail in Germany for posting a mean tweet? Of course they’re not."
But, Vice President Vance was right.
In a movethat’s already sparking outrage across Germany’s conservative media landscape, the District Court of Bamberg (Upper Franconia/Bavaria) handed down a suspended seven-month prison sentence to Deutschland-Kurier Editor-in-Chief David Bendels earlier today (April 7, 2025). The reason? A satirical meme.
