German Influencer Naomi Seibt Seeks U.S. Asylum Over Alleged Political Persecution

Her petition invokes a Trump policy prioritizing European free‑speech claims, with her allegations yet to be independently verified.

Overview

  • Seibt says she filed for protection under Section 208 of U.S. asylum law and is awaiting an interview while remaining legally in the country.
  • She alleges years of surveillance by German intelligence, repeated death threats from Antifa, and insufficient protection from police in Germany.
  • Seibt reports private messages and public amplification from Elon Musk on X and says he voiced personal support for her decision to apply.
  • Coverage notes her profile as an AfD-aligned figure known for climate skepticism and ties to U.S. conservative media and the Heartland Institute.
  • Reporters caution that her claims have not been independently corroborated and that the outcome of her case remains uncertain under standard asylum criteria.
