Anti‑Greta Naomi Seibt Seeks U.S. Asylum

Naomi Seibt, 25, a German activist widely billed as the “anti‑Greta” for criticizing climate orthodoxy and expressing support for the far‑right AfD, has filed for political asylum in the United States under Section 208, saying return to Germany would risk imprisonment or physical harm. She alleges years of surveillance by German intelligence, repeated death threats from Antifa, and that German police declined to act unless she was raped or killed. Seibt and multiple outlets say Elon Musk privately interacted with and amplified her posts and offered personal support for her asylum bid. Her filing comes as the Trump administration has signaled a willingness to expedite asylum for Europeans who claim persecution for political speech and has discussed labeling Antifa a terrorist organization. Seibt is currently in the U.S. awaiting an asylum interview and says she hopes eventually to become an American citizen, calling the country a place of greater protection and “hope.”
