Bernd Baumann (born 31 January 1958) is a German politician of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) and chief whip of the AfD Group who has been serving as a member of the Bundestag from the state of Hamburg since 2017. [1]
Baumann was born 1958 in the West German city Herne and studied economics at the Ruhr University Bochum and achieved his PhD in 1991.[ citation needed ]
Baumann eventuated the newly founded populist AfD in 2013 and was presider (Landessprecher) of the party in the city state of Hamburg from 2015 to 2017. [2]
In 2017 Baumann became the first chief whip (Erster Parlamentarischer Geschäftsführer) of the AfD in the Bundestag. [3] [4]
Bernd Baumann states there is an “opprobrious campaign”against his party by the “Correctiv”nonprofit journalism organisation against a private function of right-wing politicians and business people in November 2023 in which AfD and CDU politicians as well as Martin Sellner (BI) took part. Bauman blamed a “left-green class”of politicians and “large parts of the media”in the ARD magazin Report from Berlin. [5]
