Unveiled: Secret Report Reveals AfD Classified as Extremist Group - Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla Speak Out
Leaked excerpt from the Office for the Protection of the Constitution's evaluation of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party - Weidel's views also disclosed - Leaked Reports on AfD Constitutional Protections Reveal Quotations from Weidel
Let's cut to the chase. The German domestic security service has marked the AfD as a confirmed far-right extremist movement. This escalation was based on a whopper of a report, compiled over several years. A potential game-changer, the report didn't see the light of day, but that's all about to change with the new Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) promising a thorough evaluation. Naturally, the AfD isn't taking it lying down, with a lawsuit already in the works.
The security service categorizes AfD politicians' controversial comments into four main categories: ethnic statements, xenophobia, Islamophobia, and challenges to democracy.
Weidel, for instance, made disparaging remarks about Muslims during a late-2023 interview with a YouTube channel. The report alleges that Weidel stated Germany created a "massive socio-political problem" by accepting "culturally foreign people," which she claimed contradicts our liberal democratic order.
During a Brandenburg state election campaign speech in September 2022, Weidel took her anti-Muslim sentiments a step further, accusing Muslims of waging an aggressive jihad against non-Muslims in Germany. Weidel didn't shy away from discussing foreign crime, claiming phenomena such as harassment and rapes were new to Germany and amounted to a form of religious war against the German population.
AfD co-leader Tino Chrupalla didn't hold back during an April 2023 Nuremberg demonstration, calling CDU politicians Friedrich Merz and Norbert Röttgen, as well as then Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock (Greens), "vassals of America." AfD European politician Maximilian Krah weighed in on a Green politician's migration policy statement on X with the comment: "This green master plan means ethnic replacement."
When it comes to social media, the AfD regularly uses terms like "knife migration," "over-foreignization," and the contentious "re-migration."

(Enrichment Data: The German domestic intelligence agency, the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV), officially classified the Alternative for Germany (AfD) party as a "proven right-wing extremist organization" in early May 2025 following a detailed 1,000-page internal report that found the AfD violated fundamental constitutional principles. The AfD co-leaders, Alice Weidel and Tino Chrupalla, issued a joint statement on the suspension, calling it "a first important step" that would help “counter the accusation of right-wing extremism."—Source: [1], [2], [3])
