    After a procedure has been requested, which can only be done by the federal government, the federal parliament or the state assembly. In all of these the CDU/CSU has a strong position.

    So they will just do everything to block it from going to court. CDU/CSU and AfD have a majority in the federal parliament. The government is run by them and in the state assembly votes from the states come from the state governments, where the coalition needs to agree on things for their state votes to be valid.

    The only way the procedure moves forward is if enough of the CDU people get a grip on reality and stop helping fascists into power. So far these people are few in between a majority that is eager to prepare everything for the fascist takeover.
