A billionaire who collaborated with the Nazis in WW2 had a son, who is engaged to Hillary Clinton's former aide, who was previously married to a pedophile. Now, they want to control Democracy. And this is this photo they come up with?

"it’s good to remember that the uber-wealthy have typically been active agents of right wing reaction and oppression rather than mere pawns of authoritarian strongmen." @tmabrnk on Nazi Billionaires damagemag.com/2025/03/18/how…

Klaus-Michael Kühne ist der reichste Mann Deutschlands und Erbe des Logistikimperiums Kühne + Nagel. Sein Konzern wurde einst als „nationalsozialistischer Musterbetrieb“ ausgezeichnet. Wie sehr sein Konzern vom NS profitiert hat, vertuscht Kühne bis heute. #TaxTheRich

Jacobin spoke with Zachary Gallant, coauthor of “Nazis All the Way Down,” about how German capitalists have held on to wealth acquired through complicity in Nazi crimes and how that money continues to influence German society and politics today. jacobin.com/2025/02/credit…

Hamburg's mayor announced a 300 million euro gift today from Klaus-Michael Kühne to build a new opera. Hamburg's city hall is currently hosting an exhibition named 'Robbed before deportation'. One of the largest profiteers from those robberies? The Kühne family & Kühne + Nagel.
Peter Tschentscher@TschenPe

Der Bau und die Finanzierung einer neuen Oper durch die Kühne-Stiftung sind ein großartiges Geschenk für die Stadt, die Kultur und die Opernkunst in Hamburg - und sie sind ein “Glücksfall” für den Steuerzahler. Ich danke Klaus-Michael Kühne für dieses außergewöhnliche Engagement.

Almost wish Michael D. could run for another term - if only to dumbfound all these commentators who are now suggesting that he’s somehow out of touch with the national mood. President Higgins has done some service voicing Ireland’s unequivocal opposition to apartheid & genocide.
