🚨🇺🇸🇩🇪 TRUMP CONSIDERS PULLING U.S. TROOPS FROM GERMANY—MAY REDEPLOY TO HUNGARY

Trump is weighing the withdrawal of 35,000 U.S. troops from Germany, a move that could further strain U.S.-Europe relations.

The potential redeployment to Hungary comes as Trump pushes NATO allies to meet defense spending targets and criticizes Europe for “pushing for war.”

Hungary, led by Orbán, has maintained close ties with Russia and recently vetoed an EU commitment to bolster Ukraine.

🚨🇩🇪GERMANY SWAPS CARS FOR TANKS AS AUTO INDUSTRY CRASHES

With Europe racing to rearm, Germany’s defense giants are raiding the collapsing auto sector – because who needs cars when you can build missiles instead?

Rheinmetall is gutting two car parts factories to make weapons, while Hensoldt is snatching up 200 workers from struggling Bosch and Continental.

Meanwhile, EU leaders are planning an €800B military spending spree, and Germany’s new government wants €500B for defense – sending arms stocks soaring while the car industry flatlines.

From making cars to making tanks – Germany’s economy might finally find its engine again.

🚨🇩🇪 GERMANY TO CHANGE DEBT RULES FOR DEFENSE & INFRASTRUCTURE

Germany’s conservatives (CDU) and Social Democrats (SPD) agreed to loosen the country’s strict debt limit.

This change would allow more borrowing to increase military spending and create a €500 billion fund for roads, railways, and other key projects.

CDU leader Friedrich Merz:

“We are aware of the scale of the tasks ahead of us, and we want to take the first necessary steps and decisions.”

🚨🇩🇪 GERMANY’S CSU WANTS CONSCRIPTION BACK IN 2025—INCLUDING WOMEN

Germany’s Christian Social Union (CSU) party wants to bring back military conscription by the end of 2025 to address the Bundeswehr’s severe troop shortage.

The military is currently short 203,000 soldiers, with half of its units barely combat-ready.

CSU defense expert Florian Hahn warns that Germany must act quickly as global threats rise.

Bundeswehr Association head André Wüstner says the military will “implode” without new recruits, as 27,000 soldiers leave each year.

Former Green Party politician Joschka Fischer, once against the draft, now says Germany must conscript both men and women or risk weakening Europe’s defense.
