If Party A merely gets a plurality, say 100 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 1: thirty eight percent of the seats, but they're the big dog, 101 00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: they've got to find somebody else to join with them 102 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: to get over fifty percent. That's called quote unquote forming 103 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,520 Speaker 1: a government. Okay, so you got your kind of center 104 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 1: right ish party run by Friedrich Martz over there, old 105 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 1: fred Mertz, and they secured enough support in the parliament 106 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,960 Speaker 1: to be confirmed as the big dog, and he becomes 107 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: the chancellor. 108 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:34,799 Speaker 4: It's like a it's the head guy anyway. 109 00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: Then you have this symbolic vote where the two parties 110 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: sometimes it can be more than two, but the two 111 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,040 Speaker 1: parties that formed the government they get together and they 112 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: vote and they say, yes, we're in favor of this 113 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: being the government. 114 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:51,480 Speaker 4: And all the press is. 115 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,599 Speaker 1: There, and the old chancellor like Ungela Merkel moron not 116 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 1: a moron, incredibly unwise is there, and the press is 117 00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: at the the office where they're going to get the 118 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,359 Speaker 1: official seal, and swearing in and blah blah blah. Everybody's ready, 119 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:11,919 Speaker 1: except somehow the vote is defeated. Like a dozen members 120 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: of the coalition that had come together to form the 121 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: government said, you know, now that I think about it, 122 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 1: I don't think this is a good idea and. 123 00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:20,680 Speaker 2: Voted against it. 124 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:24,000 Speaker 1: And the vote totals came in and everybody's like, wait what, 125 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: And so now nobody knows quite what to do. There 126 00:06:28,200 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 1: are you know, systems they have in place, and it's 127 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: kind of complicated, but nobody knows who voted against it 128 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: or why they voted against it. It's never happened before, 129 00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:39,400 Speaker 1: so that now they don't know what the government is 130 00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 1: and they've got to go through these various you know, 131 00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: somersaults and backflips to try again and maybe a third 132 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 1: time with a completely new vote, just go back to 133 00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:48,880 Speaker 1: the people. 134 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:54,280 Speaker 3: So I don't followed German politics as closely as I 135 00:06:54,279 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 3: probably should because it's pretty darn interesting. But what happened 136 00:06:57,080 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 3: the other day with the declaring the AfD party as 137 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 3: a terrorist organization and now the rest of the German 138 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,760 Speaker 3: government has the ability to like tap their phones and 139 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 3: read their emails in all kinds of different side. Yes, 140 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 3: as they have been growing in power over the years. 141 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: Not to quibble exactly. 142 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:25,840 Speaker 1: Extremist is a better translation of what they're declared, just 143 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:30,040 Speaker 1: you know, because that matters, because it makes me insane. 144 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:34,119 Speaker 1: They are politically out there on the right in some things, 145 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,120 Speaker 1: but the Communists are. 146 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,960 Speaker 4: Not considered an extremist organization. 147 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 1: Oh, pretty familiar with communism in the twentieth century killed 148 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: I don't know, one hundred million people minimum, So that's interesting. 149 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 3: I saw one translation where they said terrorist, but you're 150 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 3: saying extremist. 151 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 2: Okay. 152 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: Regardless the designation of the AfD party, this is the 153 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 3: party that JD. Vance went over and met with the guy. 154 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,880 Speaker 3: Remember that that caused a little dust up for a while. 155 00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:03,680 Speaker 3: This designation means that law enforcement officials can use informants, 156 00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: audio recordings, and video footage to monitor the party's activities. 157 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 3: The AfD was labeled extremists last week over it's anti 158 00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 3: migrant and anti refugee stances, which a lot of people 159 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 3: have in that country and lots of Europe and a 160 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,000 Speaker 3: lot of people in this country because of the completely 161 00:08:21,080 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 3: out of control immigration which we were talking about just 162 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 3: a little bit ago. So you know, where you cross 163 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,320 Speaker 3: the line into extremists versus Hey, there's too many people 164 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 3: from somewhere else here. 165 00:08:30,200 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 2: I don't like it. I don't know now. 166 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,840 Speaker 3: I do point out this is from a couple of 167 00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 3: months ago, but I remember Brit Hume tweeted this out. 168 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 3: Despite what you've heard from Elon Musk and jd Vance, 169 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:46,080 Speaker 3: the AfD is an anti American pro Russian party. Some 170 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,560 Speaker 3: eighty percent of German voters, including the twenty nine percent 171 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 3: who chose mister Mertz, don't support the AfD.

Yeah, you're absolutely right. 398 00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: It's a good point. So this is kind of a 399 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:50,440 Speaker 1: funny twist. Alberta, it's kind of out west, enormous geographically, 400 00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: it's one of the provinces of Canada. The Premiere of 401 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 1: Alberta kind of like the government governor rather said that 402 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 1: Alberta's going to hold a referendum next year that could 403 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 1: include a vote on whether to separate from Canada. 404 00:21:04,600 --> 00:21:08,600 Speaker 3: So Calgary's in Alberta, right, correct, all that stuff that 405 00:21:08,600 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 3: I've driven across, that's Elberta. Okay, Yeah, that's very usc 406 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 3: that's very Western United States. 407 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:21,120 Speaker 1: Yes, Midwest to great plains in its fields. Yeah, not 408 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:24,159 Speaker 1: like West coast, but like the same part of the 409 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 1: the you know, great place. Oh, which reminds me Detroit, 410 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:33,400 Speaker 1: not Detroit. Denver has lost its effing mind. I want 411 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 1: to talk about that another time, probably on tomorrow's show. 412 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:38,879 Speaker 1: It's the Pot. I think the Pot and the altitude. 413 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: They've lost their freaking minds. They've gone. They're like left 414 00:21:42,320 --> 00:21:46,760 Speaker 1: of San Francisco in Denver. Now, I know, I'm shaking 415 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,200 Speaker 1: my head sadly, and so is Jack. 416 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:51,639 Speaker 3: I grew up out that direction Western Kansas, actually closer 417 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 3: to Denver than any other place as a city. 418 00:21:54,320 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 2: And that's not the way it used to be at all. 419 00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I know. 420 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 1: So anyway, back to Alberta. So the premier, Danielle Smith, 421 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 1: that's right, there's a. 422 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 4: Girl in charge. 423 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:10,680 Speaker 1: She doesn't support separation of right, but she said on 424 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: her the government website and her Facebook page that if 425 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:20,360 Speaker 1: citizens gather enough signatures then the question of Alberta separation 426 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: could be part of the twenty twenty six ballot quote 427 00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: our government will respect a democratic process. Her remarks are 428 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 1: the latest salvo from Alberta, which is oil and gas 429 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 1: and agriculture and hardworking, self reliant people and they're being dominated. 430 00:22:41,400 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 1: See if this sounds familiar to you Californians, Oregonians, Washington 431 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:49,240 Speaker 1: Staters who you know, You've got these vast swaths of great, 432 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 1: hardworking red district folks being dominated by the coastal elite 433 00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: in a few cities. Anyway, the Albertans are really frustrated 434 00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:04,960 Speaker 1: with liberal environmental policy, which is like California's. It's similar 435 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: in its level of green religion insanity to California, and 436 00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: they claim it's thwarted the province's economic outlook. Yeah, I've 437 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:16,200 Speaker 1: been and I could go into the particular spid you 438 00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 1: can figure it out. 439 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 3: I've done that part of Canada and gone up to 440 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,280 Speaker 3: Calgary and then driven all the way across Banfall the 441 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:23,119 Speaker 3: way over to a Vancouver and everything like that, and 442 00:23:23,160 --> 00:23:27,920 Speaker 3: it feels like wyoming in Montana and that sort of thing. 443 00:23:27,960 --> 00:23:30,320 Speaker 3: And I doubt they have much interest in what the 444 00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 3: people of Toronto and Montreal think about anything. 445 00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: Right, an idiotic sexist jokes. Aside, Danielle Smith seems to 446 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 1: be the great great great granddaughter of Thomas Jefferson. 447 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 4: Listen to this, would you? 448 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,520 Speaker 1: She warned policymakers in Ottawa that's the capitol, that the 449 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,680 Speaker 1: province would no longer tolerate. 450 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 4: Quote hostile acts from. 451 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: Ottawa, and she reiterated it in a big Monday speech 452 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:58,800 Speaker 1: to Alberton's quote, these attacks on our province by our 453 00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 1: federal government have been unbearable. This is why a large 454 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,000 Speaker 1: majority of Albertan's are so deeply frustrated with the results 455 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:09,000 Speaker 1: of last week's federal election. That's the Liberals who won, 456 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:13,359 Speaker 1: partly because Trump was trolling them. She said she had 457 00:24:13,359 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 1: a good call with Prime Minister Mark Carney, but quote, 458 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: until I see tangible proof of real change. Alberta will 459 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 1: be taking steps to better protect ourselves from Ottawa. Man, 460 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:31,080 Speaker 1: that's seventeen seventy four rhetoric. Awesome, Yeah, that's crazy. Good 461 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,840 Speaker 1: for them, though, good for them, There are a couple 462 00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:40,360 Speaker 1: of areas in which the lefty environmental nut job lobby 463 00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:44,439 Speaker 1: and their idiotic plans have been completely upended. Did you 464 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 1: know there was a huge vote in Congress the other 465 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:51,200 Speaker 1: day our Congress to get rid of the big exemption 466 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: for California's ev mandates, which had been adopted by like 467 00:24:56,359 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: twenty states including I think it was thirty five or something. 468 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: Democrats voted with the Republicans.

We're getting rid of it. 472 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: Big vote in Congress cut no attention in the mainstream media. 473 00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 4: None.
