Franziska Schreiber (born 1990 in Dresden) is a former German politician and media-personality. She is a former member of the Junge Alternative (Young Alternative), the "Youth Organization" of the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD). Schreiber authored a critical semiautobiography about her involvement in the AfD.
She joined Alternative for Germany (AfD) in 2013. Before leaving the AfD in 2017, she was on the board of the Young Alternative for Germany. She sees herself as libertarian and publicly recommended the FDP in the 2017 federal elections and caused a sensation with her book Inside AFD: Der Bericht einer Aussteigerin, published by Europa-Verlag on 3 August 2018, in which she describes the AfD behind the scenes. The mass media focused in particular on their assertion that former party leader Frauke Petry was once advised by the President of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, Hans-Georg Maaßen. She supported this claim with an affidavit after the denial of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz).[1][2][3][4]
