@wvs @randahl He also bought a villa in Berlin during his time as minister for health in the last Merkel cabinet, which was way above his pay grade and got allegedly support for the purchase from third parties.

There are more such stories, but they all fit perfectly into the way things are done around Trump. And yes, he was ok with Project 2025. Thus, he is a dangerous guy, esp. as he has no scruples at all.

2/2

@wvs @randahl my assumption is that Spahn is very right wing populist and he is friends with Peter Thiel and follows his thinkings. He is also corrupt. For example, during Corona, he ordered masks for millions of Euro without using the proper channels and profiteers of this were people directly linked to him. They had just founded a company to sell masks. Thus, they had zero experience in the business at all.

@randahl great. In Germany #Spahn tries to sabotage #Merz. Spahn showed sympathy in an interview in Süddeutsche Zeitung for the US position.
