4:00 pm
to change your journey get in by the way, this is dw news from the lynn germany is trans, less stands up to his opponents in parliament as he fights to keep his jo, what upshaw it says there is plenty of what to do before the end of the year, despite his government collapsing last week, he promises a low self confidence next month to open the way for us not selection in february. will say coming up on the program, us president elect donald trump points 11 months to lead what's being called a department of government efficiency or dosage. it's a mr. flush government regulations spending month says he's going to make government fund again. and the us secretary of state helps me blinking,
4:01 pm
says israel needs to implement real and extended pauses in golf to allow more aid into the strip. but this comes just al is also the white house says it will not hold up lessons deliveries to israel, the money groups mckinnon. welcome to the program. germany's and thoughtful chancellor has challenged parliament to keep working despite the collapse of his governing coalition. while official, it's pledge to hold the confidence vote next month to meet wait for snap elections in february. but he urged all posit used to pos measures such as a child benefit height and an increase in tax thresholds. in the meantime, here's some of what he said to pull this up as minor festive website goes. i strongly believe that we should use the time. we now have to jointly pass important
4:02 pm
laws, laws for our citizens that cannot be delayed laws. that's a necessary i believe we must show the country that we can do this until the political correspondent, brent joins me here in the studio now to talk about what's we heard from all efforts today. so hans, talk to us about his main messages because of course he was talking to parliament, but he was also talking to the central vote as well for me. okay, part of the message was let's try and keep working until the new election. that's trying to make sure that this is not a line doc. parliament that we can convince. but to show that it is that we are still able to act, that was still able to positive those that are of crucial importance. of course, there are a couple of rules that uh will most likely not be past including a budget for next year because they would need a agreement by the opposition. and this is the kind of low that the opposition would not agree to about opposition. leaders did say that they are
4:03 pm
a couple of laws that have been pre, being prepared over the last few months. that was in fact the past and the next few weeks and a couple of months. and then charles address to the voters indeed. and basically what he was saying is that he would try to ensure and future and all end and future that there was not a kind of either or alternative between spending money on things such as security, but not on social security, spending money on helping ukraine. but not on improving infrastructure in germany. you know, these kinds of either alternatives should not be the core of the government from but the raw, the, both of these, both these goals of governing, she'll be possible it should be possible to combine them. so really, who's saying if people continue to elect the social democrats to vote for the
4:04 pm
social democrats? basically, the pensions uh, secure the, the unemployment insurance will be insured. the health insurance will be insured. it's that kind of classic social democratic offering that he made to purchase today . okay. so given the, the election is going to be happening next february. did you, you know, get the sense the campaigning has started already folks. so absolutely, yes, yes, it was a, they were obviously a tax on the opposition to especially old, so on the policy that left his government now that led to the collects of collapse of the government, the liberal freight and free democrats by the law. so i'm looking more conservative opposition. at the same time, charles did say that's not only do we need corporation all in this parliament where he has on the, on the dollars he is in a minority government cooperation between old democratic policies. but he said, even after the election, that kind of cooperation will be necessary, and indeed it is very likely to be another coalition government. but with some most
4:05 pm
likely the conservatives in the lead. still, they will have to agree then with other policies as well. okay, well have to leave it the hands, but thank you so much for that. they don't use political correspondent hands front . now us president elect donald trump has appointed the c e. o of tesla a loan mosque. i'm the former republican candidate that they run the swami to lead what is being called the department of government efficiency. trump said the new department will advise the administration on dismantling the federal bureaucracy from outside the government. now this would mean, but neither mosque nor on a swami would be bound by federal essex rules mosque, celebrated the appointment on his social media platform, x and provost. all of the palms work would be posted online for transparency us and we can get more on what's happening in the u. s. from dw report,
4:06 pm
and steven eventually get to see stevens. so if all of this goes ahead, a loan mosque would be advising the administration from outside of the government and that means that he wouldn't be bound by any ethics rules, wouldn't it? so, you know, give us an overview of, of the risks of an appointment like this week is the key word is that this would be advisory, right? so it would exist outside of the government to work with the governments. what's confusing us all is the word departments are at least to confuse me at the beginning because the department is usually something that's enacted by congress is budgeted by congress and then whoever leaves that department has to be there. nomination has to be approved by congress. and so i think in this case, probably the part was taken just for the acronym, those d o g e, which is of course, affiliated with the currency that's closely tied to the lawn mosque. so the joke is already in play here. in all seriousness, what this means is still sort of hard to scrutinize. will this be something that has a staff? what have a budget? in what sense is it going to be advisory? is it going to list options for the congress for their next budget,
4:07 pm
because they ultimately have the purse strings when it comes to how much money is there for each department? and then how many people they hire. and then all of these cabinet positions that trump is announcing right now, all of these individuals are going to lead these apartments. are they going to be happy being told, well, slash 10 percent slash 20 percent of your department? so i guess there's some, there's some real questions from the forefront and of course not least among them is must relationship with the federal government already, which is what you're looting through with an ethics question. and that is through space x, of course, billions of dollars already is what space x has received in the past years to work with nasa in particular that remains to be seen. i would imagine that the argument here will be, we're not bounds by government rules. the sense that we're only there as an advisory capacity. everything is transparent. you can take our recommendations or you can leave them. so we'll have to see how all this plays out. another check on that is of course, the congress. they again get to allocate the money to prove these rules or not. i also is to ask you about the man that trump has nominated to so the secretary of
4:08 pm
defense has been making headlines. of course, this would be the person who would run the pen, took on, you know, would lead $1300000.00 active duty troops. and that is a fox news host, an ami investor and these cold pete excess tell us more about him. pete hexa is a tv personality and has been a t v personality for fox news for the past 2 years. this is a network of course that for those who don't know as closely aligned with conservative causes. and in the last few years, more and more with conservative populism, i should say probably last 8910 years ever since trump really came up, there were big support of trump. and hex f was there for most of the way to cheer on and rally on trump. he doesn't have any government experience. he was, is an army veteran. he served overseas in afghanistan or iraq. i forget. and so he has some claim to knowledge about the military, but of course, the military bureaucracy is a totally different order than just being in the military. and i think this is
4:09 pm
probably one of the more shocking announcements that we've had so far. there's still some left, so we'll see what happens. but we haven't, we have seen this before. the trump tends to go to personalities. he leans on personalities. larry colo, for example. he also called into the government during his 1st administration, another fox personality. so i think there's gonna be a lot of consternation. i think we may see that play out during the nomination process the confirmation process in the senate's now, remember, the republicans have control of the senate. but as we saw in 2016 when they also had control the center, they have had some trouble getting nominees through some of the more radical ones through. and he would definitely so far be among the most radical one more thing on your he is known for supporting several military service members, accused and one case convicted of war crimes when they were deployed and they're going to be punished by their respective branches. and he spoke out on their behalf, so the trump should intervene during his 1st term, make sure that they weren't mishandled or missed treated by um, by the respective services and trump did intervene. so he really made his,
4:10 pm
his cause a celebrity caused right there. and he supported just very much in vain with this kind of conservative populism state. and just briefly, in, in summary of what we're seeing from trump's, you know, pick so far. tell us what your thoughts are about his future cabinet. i think, heck stuff is one of the sticks out right now is being a bit radical. i think there's a cyber leave for many quarters of the world. or if they saw marco rubio picks for at least the rumors are, we should say that he's going to be secretary of state. i'm not sure if that's been confirmed. also, mike waltz for national security advisor. these are 2 key roles that will tell there will be entrance ear often times about what's going on around the world. i think there's a lot of relief they are concerned about hexa. and then we really have to see with 2 big ones sending out the secretary of education and then health and human services, our kids, you and your looming there in the background. big vaccine skeptic has had a lot of crazy conspiracy. there isn't in the last few years and trump has promised him some sort of role with see if it's a must kind of commission role or if it's going to be something more serious. all
4:11 pm
right, well be watching closely dw steven bit. steven, thank you so much. i of the. all right, we're going to take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines today. and the us top diplomat times ne, blinking is in brussels, assuring allies that washington will ramp up support for an a. so an ukraine, before donald trump returns to the white house, he reiterated a call for european allies, excuse me, to increase their own support. president elect donald trump, has questioned both us military. ac ukraine on the fitness of the nato alliance. is ready, military has struck, they roots southern. so that's just an hour after giving an evacuation warning. now this strike comes off to 11 on his health ministry, said israel had also been bought at an apartment building south since a route killing at least 6 people. the not area is outside of that has belong, alicia's traditional strongholds and ukrainian. so taken shelter in the metro is
4:12 pm
beneath cave, off to russia, launched its 1st miss all attacks on the capital. in more than 2 months. russia has been ramping up during the tax on key for weeks. ukrainian authorities say moscow is likely building up to a and a quote to massive attack on energy infrastructure as winter settles in. now on to the blink in the us, x ray of states has cooled on israel to implement what he called real and extended pauses in gaza. to allow a deliveries to the strips were ravaged population. he made the comment soft, amazing with and they totally, it is in brussels. earlier, washington announced it would continue to send to israel, saying that they'd been limited to improvements in a deliveries to golf for the kids to theme crossing from is real into gaza. israel released to this video showing a trucks passing through just hours before us deadline and judging israel's
4:13 pm
humanitarian response was due to expire. but at the united nations 8 organizations told the security council that israel's deliveries were still insufficient. the final review committee has found a strong likelihood that fireman is occurring or imminent in areas within the northern gaza strip. men, women. ready as in goals are effectively solving as the conflict rages, which amount of charity and organizations blocked from delivering assistance to those in need. israel's ambassadors slammed the report saying the ip c food security review committee was more interested in criticizing is real then helping thousands do then exercise in slender. these guys that you many tell you on the concerned that ip says own free goes show that the situation in guys that including the noise is the most stable. now that it was before to build out would the claim of framing is imminent. what are the same time providing fee goes over in improving
4:14 pm
situation. but agencies point out there's a difference between the number of trucks premier there did, and the number that actually arrive at their intended destination. the 8 supplies have less than they have less than the month of october. it was an average of $37.00 trucks today into the gaza strip. 37 trucks a day for a population of 2200000 people. we need absolutely everything. it's not enough. the un security council is debating a draft resolution demanding a ceasefire and gaza, which would include un hender to humanitarian assistance, ensure previous resolutions have been vetoed by the united states to the full. we have a quick reminder of our top story today. the german trump slot, what upshaw it says, and dress parliament for the 1st time since the collapse of his 3 policy coalition, he challenged little makers to keep working on important measures as they prepare
4:15 pm
for a confidence vote next month. that vote will likely make way to snap elections in february and without you're up to date. thanks for watching, it'll be nice. it's crazy. no easy task. world skills sees itself as a festival for the trades promoting vocational training across different fields. for liza marie and macs, the focuses on learning from each other. this is particularly evident when they check out their competitors work. the, the sugar sculptures being made here, showcase a lot of new techniques. you can draw inspiration from them either for the next competition or even for personal projects and meeting all these people is just super interesting time. so some of the world skills, as even created a symbol for this exchange is and these are things from different
4:16 pm
countries. every country brings a pin and you can trade them and then you can only get one. if you give one, i got a special pin from tie one that can light up. hardly anyone has one like it, and that's supposed to be one this year, and the young 60 different skills are being showcased. 1400 participants from 70 countries compete under tied time constraints with the judges of value weighting the results. i never would have thought hotel reception could be a skill. that's really cool, but i bet it's stressful about 5 minutes here. what's intense is all the spectators . they're standing right there watching. at least we've got a windows separating us to the organizers. everything is running like clockwork. school groups are getting information about vocational opportunities. we have high engagement from the ministry of education because obviously the objective is to get this youth in the workforce. germany's ministry of education and research support
4:17 pm
and its national team in 2024 with nearly 1100000 euro. but no senior ministry from germany visit is a competition at their final stop. liza marie and the max visit their teammate kim, the florist after 4 days of competition. the world skills event in leo comes to an end field mosque is also hiring in memphis, tennessee, but he needs people with a different skill set to local hero elvis presley. namely, i ts pets, they'll be working at muskets, new computer facility. but the problem comes with some issues to the local area, such as drinking water shortages and higher emissions. that's what the sites neighbors. oh, reggie, experiencing the
4:18 pm
savings of the mighty mississippi in south west tennessee, and perhaps best known around the world because of this guy, king rock and roll categories. presley lived here and arguably, still a lot. some race states still takes more than at least half a 1000000 visitors every year. however, memphis is not to sell. the city of roughly 1000000 citizens is, for example, also home to global logistics pe, he must federal express for in short, fedex. the airport of memphis things to fedex is one of the busiest cargo helps in the world only 2nd to hong kong. so far, so good, but of course memphis has its site on more gross and wells. it is a business least set on creating a diverse future proof of business landscape. that's where high tech comes in. and in this case the most and who's relatively new company, x
4:19 pm
a i for me and i believe for the city of memphis and the surrounding area. one of the big advantages of having the musk super computer here is to bring more prominence to the area as a technology. you know, most investment to your accounts basically told memphis and is truly astonished. or perhaps not. that depends on how one looks at most confounded, his latest artificial intelligence started up x a i in march 2023. the problem is to release quote, the most powerful a i in the world and quote, by december 2024. the a model is called rock 3 and it's training would happen at noon massive state slash training center in memphis, muska now and here it is in industrial section of memphis in the southern part of
4:20 pm
town. it is this facility that is supposed to supply the compute power for its artificial intelligence company, x a i. and with that, the brains arms and legs for grog 3. that takes a lot of computing power to do right. there's a lot of competition in general today. i space. each company is trying to how do the other hand as they add more and more features to the generative a i. it requires more and more computing power and a i requires more electricity to complete even simple tests compared to a typical search queries. the electricity must come from somewhere, it must be produced. and here's the heat. in the us about 60 percent of that electricity comes from burning fossil fuels, which is the primary driver of climate. hello. we're meeting yolanda cooper, something that a local coffee shop. she's the city council woman representing the district in
4:21 pm
which most build this data center. i serve some of the ports districts here in memphis. and when i say the pores, mostly brown, in digit is people of color into our size. tells the woman to herself miss anything but happy about how memphis i must found each other. the process of how must x a facility in memphis came to pass, has been shady. she says, the facility was hastily approved almost secretly, and them built in just a few months of the process and how this business transaction took place was without the knowledge of myself and the council members. i found out on the news, sitting in my living room and my recliner, the council woman wasn't the only one left in the dock about the new x a i facility communities neighboring the data center were given no information need
4:22 pm
. we're not saying that we didn't want the business or the business shouldn't be here. but what you did was you left the people that lives in this city for some large claims, the great at memphis chamber of commerce with that. and she's not alone. a group of representatives and activities of various local environmental and community engagement organizations has invited media to press conference and one of the smallpox at downtown memphis. the list of grievances is long and diverse that there is the water issue. the local utility company, memphis life gas, and water, or m l g w says the moment most super computer gets to full capacity. it's going to need 1000000 gallons of water per day for cooling. memphis drinking water comes from an aquifer and ancient lake underground, taking it from yak refer is problem at water is life is an absolutely critical
4:23 pm
resource that every thing needs for survival industries do need water for their process. businesses do need water to make their revenue with that should never be put in front of the drinking water needs. a resident another major grievance. air pollution, which in this case has to do with the data centers need for a vast amount of electricity. at full capacity, most facility needs 150 megawatts of electricity. that's enough to power $100000.00 plus homes per year. but already, even, it's not yet full compute power x a i use is 18 methane gas turbines to produce enough power for the comp gas powered arrow, the riveted turbine mounted on trailers that are spewing climate, changing emissions into this communities, air right now. air that was already regularly exceeding
4:24 pm
the da's attainment guidelines were ozone on an almost everyday basis this summer. and this without any environmental impact statement or even a permit due to the legal loophole that they're on trailers and they're only temporary. but actually they could be run $364.00 days a year. and finally, there is the equity and the quality issue. framing all other problems, the screw stuff with mosques, presence in memphis, and with the cities chamber of or is conducting securing his investment to you in the 1st place. community activists keyshawn pearson takes us to the industrial area that now houses x a i know facility is neighboring bucks, towns a small dominantly african american community that was established by and slave people in $1863.00 residents of flux,
4:25 pm
town and other small communities in the area continue to miss out on any benefits whatsoever. mosques invest the next bill we seen it played over and over and over again. it's the same playbook. and so for us, what is the material economic benefit was the material environmental benefit of this organization being here? what's crazy about this situation in particular or what stands out is the fact that the leadership of this organization is a proponent, quote, unquote of environmental. there's and yet you are power. and this facility using dirty gas discontinued, is supplicate us every other day or so. the song is inbox down and goes from house to house and door to door, reaching out to its residents about the whole, you know, my situation just to stone throws away from the neighbors. he admits that he's organization and the other groups are facing david versus lice. but he refuses to give up and that's it for another edition of made,
