AfD Nepotism – Billions Wasted – Who Pays the Price?: Oliver Kirchner Attacks Government and Media in HohenmölsenAt a citizens' dialogue in Hohenmölsen, AfD state parliament member Oliver Kirchner spared no criticism of the federal government and the media on February 12, 2026. In clear terms, he condemned the waste of public funds, questionable personnel decisions, and the role of the media – making it clear that, in his view, the principle of merit is being neglected in Germany. On February 12, 2026, Oliver Kirchner, AfD member of the Saxony-Anhalt state parliament, targeted the federal government and established media in Hohenmölsen. In his speech, he referenced allegations of nepotism, made the use of public funds a central issue, and sharply criticized the government’s spending policies. “Isn’t there somehow a mast scandal, where 5.9 billion euros were sunk and, as a gift from the one who sank it, then became CDU parliamentary group leader in the Bundestag,” Kirchner asked rhetorically, raising questions of accountability and transparency in politics. Another topic was the filling of political offices. Kirchner criticized that qualified people are often passed over in favor of political connections. “If a man applies who maybe has a son also in the party, who is qualified, and we then say: ‘We’d rather take the runner-up, who only has half your education,’ that has nothing to do with the merit principle in this society,” he emphasized. He made it clear that, for him, competence and trust should take precedence over party politics or family connections. Kirchner also addressed the role of the media. He lamented that questions about side incomes or critical investigations are exaggerated in the media, while larger financial scandals receive little attention. “And they seriously ask me about a 556-euro side job – and then I’m back at ZDF, censorship, defamation, and fake news,” said Kirchner. Finally, Kirchner warned against the uncontrolled dissemination of information within politics. He reported that during a parliamentary group retreat in Austria, photos of participants were taken, raising the question of where such information comes from. He thus emphasized the need for political processes to remain transparent and responsible. Overall, Kirchner used the citizens' dialogue to highlight the government’s responsibility for public funds, the prioritization of merit and competence over party loyalty, and the critical role of the media in Germany. His speech showed that many citizens have questions about efficiency, accountability, and trust in politics, and that these issues remain highly relevant.
