but for this maps, the leader of the conservative as the christian democrats in the federal parliament while he was here too. and remember, in the course of the week that's just going by in parliament, he referred to his policy is the one that wants to restore the safety and security to this country will lose remarks on after all, as a different lights on them. now is because of what has happened here. it's worth remembering that this man who has been referred to, i mean that for the suspects has been referred to by the interior minister and see phase as being is a lot of phobic with someone who online has been retreating, re posting, praising the posts of the alternative for germany, call to the f day, the far right policy in this country. so there's no question migration and security is a big issue in this selection campaign. what's happened to you will make it even bigger . dominic, thank you very much for that domini came live for as a matter back. as the serious new administration is taking shape with the appointment of a foreign minister. the government led by hi, i terry alshaun

lies the fact that in less than 8 weeks, germans will be going to the polls to elect a new federal parliament. this fall in and behind the i say is currently at around 19 to 20 percent of the vote. they want to boost a single to get 20 percent that would be the highest showing in the history since 2013 when they were formed. remember, easton germany, specifically the old east. germany is that hot land of support? the 3 most southern east german states, 30 percent 35 percent of the vote goes to the if day. so to a certain extent, at a riley like that, she is as well preaching to the converted. and yet she also has a wider audience, a wide audience that has seen the recall thing about the suspect. but he was, has being referred to officially by ministers as being is lumber, phobic. she is clearly trying to, as it was quite a circle, she wants to appeal to have policies call support feeding back on all chinese. but she also wants she wants to reach beyond that, which is why at the end of her speech, she was making the sort of comment you would expect to come for more or less for rights politicia

the buddhist todd and the hoss by the buddhist road, which is the to the 2nd chamber of parliament where the federal states are uh, represented. so it's a pretty powerful cause, and it's embodied in the sort of fabric of the gym and state and transfer all off. schultz decided the changes agreed today would protect the court from the influence of extremists. what is exactly the fear here? how could extremist influence or change the court or yeah, well what's often mentioned is that something that happened here, like what happened has happened in poland and hungary and poland for instance, as a nationalist policy. the piece when it was empower, attempted to have judges that 8 approved a point 8 across the polish legal system that was heavily criticized by other countries. and the you and jim and politicians, fear that back kind of influence could happen here somehow. so they say, well, we'll anchor at these, the new rules, the, the structure of essentially, of the constitutional court in germany is constitution. that's just going to make it much harder for any single policy to change things and to hav

country and i'm wondering if that has any legs and how that might affect the federal workforce going forward with a hung parliament, congress with such a razor thin majority, is there any way they could effectuate that? >> there's a couple different things that i will start with on mandated returns to work. that has certainly been talked about. it is out there. the biden administration was trying to get people back to the office more. you have seen some of the d.c. metro area pushing that as well and then the trump administration has talked about it as well. i do think it's more complicated. the hard part is it's easy to say bring everyone back in and it's more complicated in route -- in reality because unions have collective bargaining agreements so you will see a sort of mishmash of people coming in and also a lot of people are in the office already in certain pockets that they are not in as often but i would say it's probably more than people realize. >> we mentioned this a little bit in these conversations but some of the timelines that will be operating under this are longer than i think are part of the narra
