The Story Tells Itself Through Claudia Jaworski's Courthouse Interviews: And We Are Reminded Of The Lost Art Of The Street Interview
Many Stunning Moments In This One Clip, To Fill In Complex Reiner Story Which Is Really a Story About Germany's Fall (And Ours)
“ We ‘re not machines, but human beings.”
—Katja Wörmer
I just watched this utterly stunning clip by Claudia Jaworski, from Aug 28, Trial Day 27. She and her sister Natali Jaworski, known as The Jaworski sisters, are classical and outstanding reporters, bringing back a lost trade tool.
The interview!
As beam of light, as primary tool. The straight Q&A.
It is a must watch if you want to gain a true understanding of the Fuellmich trial and what it means for Germans.
The voices paint a picture. A story we can begin to understand, even if we are not Fyodor Dostoyevsky. I really urge everybody to listen to the whole thing.
Claudia brings back the essential (classical) soul of the journalist, also called “reporter” who represents the public, which in turn, represents the question mark.
”The public does not know. I am here to represent the public, and to ask.”
Claudia has also cornered a phenomenally rich nutrient bed for her Fuellmich coverage, by talking to the observers, supporters, and citizenry who faithfully come to the courthouse. It becomes clear: These good people, these good Germans, are not “merely” using their time and moral perception to defend Reiner Fuellmich himself, or per se; They see in the crucible of this whole case their nation, Germany, threatened with death, as a democracy. As a newly imagined democracy after 1945.
In that sense, Reiner, the Jaworski sisters, Elsa, Roger, and the whole team, could be seen as a kind of modern day White Rose (frightful invocation, I know, because of what befell them.)
People ask how they can help: Right now my main thought is: Support all the people who bring you the story. (Some listed above, with their pages linked.)
”The White Rose (German: Weiße Rose, pronounced [ˈvaɪ̯sə ˈʁoːzə] ⓘ) was a non-violent, intellectual resistance group in Nazi Germany which was led by five students and one professor at the University of Munich: Willi Graf, Kurt Huber, Christoph Probst, Alexander Schmorell, Hans Scholl and Sophie Scholl. The group conducted an anonymous leaflet and graffiti campaign that called for active opposition to the Nazi regime. Their activities started in Munich on 27 June 1942; they ended with the arrest of the core group by the Gestapo on 18 February 1943.[1] They, as well as other members and supporters of the group who carried on distributing the pamphlets, faced show trials by the Nazi People's Court(Volksgerichtshof); many of them were imprisoned and executed.
Hans and Sophie Scholl, as well as Christoph Probst were executed by guillotinefour days after their arrest, on 22 February 1943. During the trial, Sophie interrupted the judge multiple times. No defendants were given any opportunity to speak.”

An attack on anti-Covid-ians who invoke The White Rose, by a Jewish periodical aimed at fighting anti-semitism, here. To read this is to have one’s mind scrambled.
Here is Claudia’s sister, Natali, drawing international attention to the case—the wider implications of it for all of us—in Spanish.
We owe thanks to all the Germans, (and non Germans) who kept the story alive all these months, as it became more and more clear what had happened. Again, and in haste, some of them are linked in this post, but not all. I am NOT intending to leave anybody out—only in a rush now. I intend to bring out as many small journalistic outlets as I can, in a future post. Feel free also to link them in comments.
Natali's Spanish is very good.
She uses the Spanish (and German) term "estado de derecho" which is literally "State of Right," but in proper English is "Rule of law."
Very confusing concept: clearly, the term State and the term Right contradict each other. The resulting confusion is partially responsible for the current legal and political chaos of many countries.
Some good info here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rechtsstaat
In Spain, the Constitution says literally "Spain is constituted as social and democratic state of right," a phrase so complicated that several exorcists of many different religions have failed to purify.
No one understands what the very open-ended term "social state" means.
No one can escape the confusion of the very disputed adjective "democratic."
No one agrees on what rights or "the law" is.
The mystical jungle of positive legislation.
The law should be plain, small, short, and understandable by everyone.
I realize I will make no friends here when I write this, but I am really taken aback at the word "persecution" to describe what is happening to Reiner Fuellmich.
Is Reiner being tortured? Being denied food and water? Injected with foreign substances?
Everyone who speaks out against official deep state narrative, as you well know, Celia, takes a risk.
At this point, after all the years of seeing what happens to journalists and activists that speak the truth, one has to know that if one is going to take on the cartel, one needs to be ready to fight and to expect anything.
I watched every single interview that Reiner and Vivienne and the committee held, and I learned a great deal.
I watched Reiner's interviews after he parted with Vivienne. I enjoyed them and I learned a great deal from them also.
So I have no ax to grind with Reiner, Vivienne or the committee. I appreciate their work.
However, and I have believed this since the whole situation exploded - at the very least, Reiner and Vivienne and Woflgang and the committee used extremely poor judgement when they used Committee donations for personal use - EVEN IF that personal use was to protect the funds from the government. Reiner and Vivienne each took a loan. That is personal use.
Anyone who has done any kind of work in this arena knows that you do not touch ANY funds for any reason.
You either set up a 501 non profit organization, or you just hire a completely independent 3rd party to handle all donations and finances.
I am incredulous that Reiner, a lawyer who specializes in fraud, and Vivienne, also a lawyer, would even consider touching those donations. Especially with what was at stake.
With what was at stake - the Health Freedom movement and all of the work they were doing - you would assume they would make sure that everything financial was above board, transparent, and unquestionable.
The donations could have been protected in a way that would not call into question anyone's integrity, and would not lead to just what we are witnessing now.
Was Vivienne "got to"? Maybe.
Was Reiner's arrest illegal? Perhaps.
Is the German judicial system corrupt? Of course.
Every single judicial system in the world is corrupt! Doesn't excuse what is happening by any means, but it does not surprise me at all that they are trying their best to disparage what the committee was trying to do in exposing the truth.
I have listened to Eric Coppolino's interview from last Feb with a German journalist who did a deep dive into this situation. There is more to the background of this story than meets the eye. The journalist is very even keel. He does not cast aspersions. He does not pronounce judgement. But he does ask an interesting question,
If Reiner had not been arrested - if he and Viveinne were still conducting interviews with their committee - would how they handled the donations be OK?
My answer is no.
So we can focus on how corrupt the German judicial system is. No question.
And it is deplorable that Reiner could not be with his mother without being handcuffed. That goes without saying.
But this situation did not happen out of the blue. Questionable judgment gave the cartel ammunition.
We are up against mighty might forces.
I think of innocent men, women and children being deprived of food, water, sanitation, a home:, and being bombed and shot at on a daily basis as persecuted.
That is just my opinion.
