Did you know that Helmut Kohl, the German Chancellor (1982-99), implemented a planto deport Turkish immigrant back to Türkiye?

This is the History of Immigration & Far-right Politics in Germany.

Mr. Elon Musk & Vice Pres. JD Vance have endorsed the AfD - Germany's anti-immigrant, Islamophobic, far-right party. And although the AfD commands 20% of the German vote, other parties refuse to form a coalition government with it.

In this interview, I discuss the following with my guest:

►Germany's economic headwinds and growing budget challenges

►the rise of the AfD in German elections

►Why is the AfD being investigated by German authorities?

►What is JAfD?

►How Germany's unification was more like an acquisition than a merger

►For Germans, does the Berlin Wall still exist?

►Roots of racism in East Germany compared to West Germany

►Was the post-WWII de-Nazification a success?

►What is PEGIDA?

►Which ethnic groups commit the most crime in Germany?

►Who is Gerhard Rex Lauck?

►How did America export Nazi propaganda back to Germany?

►What is Ausländer?

►What was Helmut Kohl's plan for exporting Turks?

►Why were Turks called "guest" workers?

►What is Almanci?

Japan's PM Ishiba wanted to visit Pres. Trump soon after Nov. 5. But President-elect Trump didn't grant him an audience until last week. Back in 2016, Japan PM Abe visited President-elect Trump at the Trump Tower.

But why have Japanese leaders rushed to meet with Mr. Trump?

Because America is important to Japan's economy and security. And vice versa. .

In this interview, we discuss the following:

►The "most important bilateral relationship in the world, bar none."►Japan's longest running political party and its loss of power

►How Japan's government structure compares to America's

►How protectionism and restrictive business practices helped Japan's economy

►1980s' anti-Japanese sentiments in America

►Populism in Japan (and perhaps its lessons for America)

►Japan's formidable bureaucracy and how it shaped Japan's economic planning (and at times political landscape)

►Japan's constitution and America's role in writing it

►Japan's challenge with its constitutional limits on increasing its military power

►Japan military: from pacificism to realism

►An Asian NATO?

The German Empire was one of the most powerful nations. However, at the height of its power, it abruptly changed its foreign policy from accommodative and collaborative to aggressive and combative.

In this video, I compare our country's new style of foreign policy to the German Empires.

Historically, America thrived on tariffs. In fact, we had tariffs from the very beginning - from Colonial times to the Confederation period to our Constitution, and then throughout the antebellum period, through America's industrial rise and from there up to WWII.

In this episode, I'll share a brief review of this history along with my take on how Pres. Trump's tariffs may be different than previous tariffs in U.S. history.

This is a political map of Colombia in 1824. Obviously, Colombia's boundaries have changed since then. But notice Panama. It is part of Colombia in this map, and would remain so until 1903. Next to Panama is President Teddy Roosevelt, who supported Panamanian rebels to secede from Colombia.

51st U.S. State! America's interest in incorporating Canada, in some fashion, is as old as our Republic.

In those early days and continuing until almost the end of the 19th century, our relationship with Canada was defined by recurring borders raids and wars, our distrust of Canada and our various plans to gobble up our northern neighbor, which was then an extension of the British Empire.

And even though our relationship with Canada began to slowly and positively change after 1903, WWI and certainly WWII, Canada's identity was and, arguably, continues to be shaped in opposition to America.

In this interview, my guest, a dual national of U.S. and Canada, tells us about the important differences between Canada and America, and explains "Canadian anti-Americanism". We also talk about Canada's foreign policy and how climate change is dramatically changing Canada's geopolitical importance in the world - this all about the Northwest Passage!
