AfD Party's Washington Visit: A Growing Far-Right Alliance

On November 14th, a significant political development unfolds as dozens of German far-right AfD party members are invited to Washington D.C. by House Republicans. This visit, led by Representative Anna Paulina Luna, is seen as a growing trend of German far-right figures seeking support from MAGA Republicans, framing their struggles as a fight against political persecution and censorship. However, the exact number of attendees is uncertain, and the visit has sparked controversy due to Germanys federal domestic intelligence agency declaring AfD an extremist organization. The trip is viewed by AfD leaders as an opportunity to gain more legitimacy for their claims of persecution, with a larger conference planned for early next year to counter Davos and focus on national sovereignty.The Daily News Now! — Every city.
