notes with timestamps:
0:01 Elon Musk has made a number of tweets / posts on X in support of the AfD recently.
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1869986946031988780 (Only the AfD can save Germany) 20.12.24
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1870198951531688200 (The AfD policies are identical to those of the US Democratic Party when Obama took office! I don’t think there is a single difference.) 20.12.24
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1870488903452676105 (The traditional political parties in Germany have utterly failed the people. AfD is the only hope for Germany) 21.12.24
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1870536240195604724 (AfD polls are artificially low for the same reason Trump’s were, but even more so: people in Germany are concerned to say they would vote for AfD, because they don’t trust who is asking) 21.12.24
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1870901817367834656 (Only AfD can save Germany) 22.12.24
https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1873876042387275849 (AfD is going to win an epic victory!) 30.12.24
He also wrote an opinion piece for the German newspaper Welt am Sonntag (the Sunday edition of the major German broadsheet Die Welt) on the 29th of December.
The opinion piece is in German and is behind a paywall https://www.welt.de/debatte/kommentare/plus254982012/Warum-Elon-Musk-auf-die-AfD-setzt-und-warum-er-dabei-irrt.html
In the piece, Musk says that Germany's economy needs less regulation, and that its immigration policy is threatening Germany's identity and has led to cultural and social tension.
He also criticises the phasing-out of nuclear-power and defends the AfD from accusations that it is a far-right party.
Musk's posts and his opinion piece have attracted a lot of attention in Germany.
The clips in this video are from Scholz and Habeck's New Year messages, a tradition in Germany.
Scholz's speech (which has English subtitles done by a human and is 7 minutes long) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tW0rm4IOwJ4
Habeck's video (8 minutes) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TstYjL1K27Y
Alice Weidel has also posted a New Year message, I will upload that next.
Friedrich Merz (leader of the centre-right mainstream conservative CDU and favourite to be the next Chancellor) did not post a New Year video but he has also criticised Musk.
Merz said "I cannot remember, in the history of the Western democracies, a comparable case of interference in the election campaign of a friendly country."
2:33 founding of the Republic = founding of the Federal Republic of Germany (ie. West Germany) in 1949. In 1991 the East German states joined this Federal Republic.
2:54 power politics = Europe needs to exert its influence more on the international stage.
The corresponding German word Machtpolitik is sometimes used in English.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/machtpolitik
3:51 breathe power = this is an unusual phrase in German too
4:09 already witnessed = Habeck literally says "already reminds", this doesn't make sense to me so I changed it to witness, which I think is what he probably means, given the context.
5:03 I wish you, I wish us, from my heart, that it will be a good year = this sounds a bit clunky in German too
5:07 a safe slide = this is a common phrase used in Germany to wish people a happy new year
