welcome to the show. i'm nicole fairly, the republicans have one enough states to control the united states house of representatives, cementing their hold on both the us capital and the white house just declared when and arizona's race for the house alongside a victory in slow count in california gave the g o p, the majority of 218 seats. this results give the republicans and president elect donald trump, the governing. try fact though with control of the senate house and the white house . democrats will find it extremely hard now to come back drums with plans to expel migraines, extend tax breaks and re shaping us economy. paula fully leaves us with me now. pablo complete control of congress. does that mean unchecked power for donald trump? not necessarily, but it is very good news for the republican party. like you said, i mean,

no matter basically control, you know, the presidency right? the way down it means of pushing through at, let's say, sweeping changes to legislation is going to be a lot easier with guards to say you can amik policy migration policy, environmental protections, which they want to roll back on. we're going to be seeing that basically being pushed through a lot easier. i think where it's going to be interesting is and is in the sense that overall we've got a republican party that's a lot more loyal to donald trump. then back in 2016. so that means more unity. but it's in the sense that in the senate you need a 3 5th majority at 1st sign of bills to be pushed through. and that's to avoid this filibuster thing, which is a very us, as sort of a word to see if that comes up quite a lot, which basically lives senators to a delay legislation by keeping up doing exactly by storing it. so what they need to do is they're going to need to go across the all to the democrats and seek support for them. so what happens often with santa bills is that their water damage. so it may mean that

a lot of these sort of more and what the democrats mean calling sort of extreme changes that, that they want to push through may have to be watered down because they're gonna need that, that approval. another area that's interesting and i think we really need to focus on is, did you, dish will landscape. this is a judicial landscape that is far more in favor of donald trump. and it was back in 2016 from the supreme court, which is far more conservative. and also a lower level courts as well. they're far more conservative. so in the case that donald trump pushes true se executive orders, which then are often then and opened up in a legal process. the chances of those actually ending up being an overturned or not overturned? obviously it's a different situation because we have a far more it's a conservative system there. yeah. so well balanced. we're still being counted in arizona and california for example, the term cabinet started to take shape and we have some quite shocking nominations there. it's a b rank. let's start with matt gates. there, there is

a longer less but let's start with that. let's start with my guide. so he's a trump loyalist congressman from florida and, and also he's going to these be basically put forward as the attorney general. so we know a very important job. this is a man who doesn't have a lot of experience as a practicing lawyer, which is the compared to previous attorney general's. he has much less and he spent most of his working life working as a politician. this is a mind as well that if he is approved, we'll be taking over at, you know, from the top enforcement agency, the same one that was investigating him open til 202336 at into sex crimes. and there's also a has ethics committee that's been investigating allegations against guys that he was part of a, a tex traffic and screamed us now ends. it's because he's step down to the house of course, because he's not in the house cuz he stepped down. and he now he's denied all the allegations and of course that investigation at back in 2023. that ended there. so

he's also irked, will say, many republicans. he's not super at popular among some republicans who say he's very extreme. and in some of his policies, and he's also being fiercely loyal to donald trump. he's been described by some as of people for and donald trump was paula, fully leah's, of our us selections team speaking to me earlier. let's take a look now at some other stories making headlines around the world today. un atomic watched off to you, rafael grossey is met with around for a minister in terra before his trip. grossey said his agency had not been granted access to a facility with machines that enrich uranium. the i a, a is concerned to enriched uranium, could be used to making nuclear bonds. the multiple air strikes of his bare route, southern and suburbs after israel ordered residents to evacuate. the area controlled by has for israel intensified his campaign against the militant improvement september. overnight air strikes and artillery showing also hip the

south of the country where media say 5 people have been killed. human rights watch says that israel's repeated evacuation orders in gaza, amounts to the work crime, a forcible transfer. the group made the claim in a news report and a new report suggesting israel actions could be ethnic cleansing. it says it's findings are based on interviews with display scoggins, satellite imagery, and public reporting. diplomatic sources have confirmed to dw that the european union is outgoing. foreign policy chief to separate has proposed the block suspend political dialogue with israel in a letter to e foreign ministers. he signs serious concerns about the possible breaches of international humanitarian law and gaza groups. top diplomats argues israel as not sufficiently address these concerns. a suspension would need approval from all in

you. members. states, the foreign ministers are expected to discuss the proposal as are meeting on monday . the last one very shares before ending his 5 year term. let's bring our brussels corresponding rosie birch or rosie what could all this mean as well? listen, i think what use that brows trying to do here is to force your member states to have a discussion on to state on the record, basically among themselves for their positions are on relations with israel and the broader context here is it is your team in union and israel have a broad agreement, it's cold and association agreement. it covers things like trade, but it has lots of other parts which outlined highways, the 2 sides engage with each other. and in the past 2, e, you members, state and ireland have called for a review of the trade part of that agreement. given that they believe they would like to see a review of whether israel is fulfilling its human rights obligations,

which are laid out in the agreement. no, of course. israel says it absolutely is. spain in ireland were suspicious of that and they have called new member states to look at this that proposal from spain and i, we basically went nowhere and burrell, it seems to me, is trying to follow up on not with a different approach this time discussing political dialogue now your ministers will discuss based on monday, i'm told by some of the collapse here in brussels, that it was a bit of a surprise proposal. they weren't expecting this from burrell. but as you know from the past you members, states have tended to be very divided on the issue of how to respond to israel of how to move forward with the relations. okay, and you mentioned that there for a ministers. we'll take a look at this on monday. what do you think they'll make of it? well, i spoke to one source this morning and they said to me, look, if you countries are struggling to agree on very basic language in a statement. i can hardly expect they will agree on such a big measure suspending

a political dialogue. so i think that gives you an idea of the, the mood in the room. it's worth noting that germany in the past has said that communication channel should always be kept open with israel. and so i think i would say this probably as a proposal, which is seen by many here as an old starter. and that's why i would see it really rather as a kind of last ditch attempt by burrell remembered this. it will be his last meeting, which he chairs as a foreign policy chief to bring members states together for a discussion on it and to try and kind of force them in, in a room to just to declare a position. i think a position will not be declared in the end given the divisions, but it will be a chance for them to, to explain among themselves some of these 27 countries which have widely different views on this. what they individually think and then for braille to come out and tell us what the mood in the room was and what the discussion was. but indeed, it looks like it's not going to be something that gets a, any sort of a switched approval. they combine the building is rosie virtual or to in brussels? always great speaking to you. thank you so much.

germany, some battle chancellor has challenged parliament to keep working despite the collapse of his governing coalition last week. and it's for a speech to parliament since then shoulds urged all parties to pull together to pass important legislation ahead of a confidence vote next month and snap elections in february. but the session soon deteriorated into a heated blame game. a campaign in german is 2025 election has big guns. that at least is the impression you could get from today. sometimes firey and acrimony assessment and the stuff that is on this. this is a disagreement on the fundamental issue. and i cannot, and i will not subject this country to that. so you read in your speech him a chance to read us wednesday evening was frankly on what the chancellor of a federal republic of germany police left shelves, the social democrat,

john sled. now the, it's only a minority government but wants to use the remaining problem entry time to push through a few more items of legislation. because all the time we should use the time we have now to pos those very important lowest which cannot be delayed. they are necessary for us citizens. i think this is what we must demonstrate to the country gets tight. that cd you lead a frequency match who has is always on the top killed off to the election slated for late february was already firing back. but i never heard for a week now. the so called progressive coalition of the social democrats, greens and freed democrats has been history, and that is good news for germany going for dr. chris can link the finance minister and f t p. media. he's firing meant the breakdown of filters 3 way calculation last week took the opportunity to settle scores of management sometimes

to be dismissed is to be freed to fall right populous. vfc were also in campaign mode, attacking the main stream policies, which upset they will not work with them. whatever happens at the ballot box. these are the you won't get so this government is coming to an end just as little salt and dignity as it has acted for 3 years. even as they leave, they show neither inside no responsibility. they indulge themselves pity, self righteousness and mutual insults a hell of shell. it's reminded the democratic parties that after the election campaigns, some of them would have to come together to full menu cover lives in government. so now those all sides seem eager for the electoral fight with full showing chest ourselves on popular with voters. we asked our political corresponding julia, so deli, whether schultz, his party could still replace them at the top of the ticket before the elections.

charles is one of the least appreciated politicians in germany and unlucky for him in a way the most liked politician in the country is one of his party members, but also a member of his cabinet. and that is defense minister, both as pistole is now of the social democrats shows as party the leadership there are saying that shows is the name for the chancellor candidates and that they're going to confirm disposition in a party congress in january. there are rumors coming out of the party that some people in the party are considering actually switching to bonus disorders as a cabinet. it's also given how popular he is in the country and how much of that might benefit the social democrats and the polls. but you are likely to see a change like that if it does occur later this year, or possibly more likely at the beginning of next year. this is kind of, as julia says, i like a quick look at some other worldliness authorities in brazil say

a man who failed in an attempt to break into the supreme court, killed himself in explosions outside the building. 2 strong glass seconds apart were heard in the evening after sessions at the end of the building was sent evacuated. this comes days before brazil assessed to host 323 long as their voting in snap parliamentary elections. only 7 weeks after choosing a new president left us presidents coalition is expected to secure amanda is to drive through economic reforms. the country is recovering from a financial meltdown. and the high cost of living is still a critical issue. for many voters, thousands of people have been evacuated in the north eastern philippines, a super type who knows soggy and makes land for the 5th hips, the country and a month. the brutal wave of whether disasters has already killed more than a 150 people. countries whether agency has warrant of life threatening water searches in coastal areas and with us are all up to date. if you want
