Members of the European Parliament have made history by electing the first woman as Commission President. Germany’s outgoing defence minister Ursula von der Leyen won lawmakers’ support for the role. She was voted in by a narrow majority.

I thought she was the queen of England she looks like her a lot
Ursula von der Leyen only got the job because she's bessy mates with Merkel, also she's been rubbish at every political post she's had but that's never an obstacle to promotion if your well connected.
Well… I didn’t elect her, in fact I’ve never been given an option to elect anyone into this position. I’ve never seen this individual run for this position before she, well… already got „elected“. This is not one of the candidates we were shown a couple months ago. Why can Merkel’s CDU seemingly just select Members from their Party for any EU position they want and the EU just goes along with it? This woman is basically another Merkel just in the most powerful EU position. The last thing we need is more Merkel! This is worse than Druncker, what an absolute joke!
Funny how people were joking about Merkel becoming commission president after her term ends and now that’s technically what we got!
🤡🌍
This is a disaster! Another vote for unbridled neo-liberal economic policies. And this in combination with Laguarde at the head of of ECB ! And why is the Real News simply showing a DW news reel without commentary of its own?
basically a pentagon puppet?
More of the same…. most likely.
As few of the commenters have pointed an awful human being and a self-serving politician gladly obeying the imperialist cause.
The EU along with Germany are out to expand even more and you do not investigate.
Very shallow overview of Europe with you only concentrating on far right-wing populists not the predominant bourgeois ruling class.
Bilderberg elitist attendee obtains leadership in EU, the second German in a row, stoking fears of a repeat of 1937 by bureaucratic means.
A wave of 'imperial feminism', Media outlets fawn over women taking top positions in the largest weapons companies, defence and intelligence agencies but its nothing to celebrate, when we need to be minimising the power of these institutions. It is basic cynical rebranding of the military industrial complex and a deep betrayal of the potential of women in political + corporate affairs.
As Noura Erakat, says women’s inclusion in military institutions “makes the system subjugating us stronger and more difficult to fight. Our historical exclusion makes it [appear] desirable to achieve [inclusion] but that's a lack of imagination. Our historical exclusion should push us to imagine a better system and another world that’s possible.”..
Hopefully this will hasten its collapse.
So they voted in a German Hillary? LMFAO!!!
Hey real news network…..WTF is going on with your channel. I used to see Aaron Matte and Paul Jay talk Real foreign policy and Real issues. Now your propn up Neoliberals with SJW click bait BS titles…
How to fix a "fragmented EU"
Would claim EU is not fragmented but…
1. Throw the UK out…
2. Well only details left…
Another sell-out.
Her greatest threat is not that she is a conservative, but that she is a corporatist, globalist, technocrat, and will also push so-called transhumanism. The "Liberal-Conservative" spectacle is a distraction to confuse us from recognizing that "globalism" is a ploy to enable the planetary oligarchs ("The Cabal") to control humanity by simply co-opting a single government, rather than having to bribe and blackmail their way into multiple nations.
Many people on the right have figured this out, but too many on the left have their head in the sand. Hillary Clinton may not have been a "conservative" but her policies would have led down the same road as this woman's.
God through the apostle informs us..the woman is a weaker vessel. She is still subject to a large group more powerful than herself 2Thess.2:3,4 the man of sin, papacy; and the other corrupt Religious Civil Security Force James 5:1-5. And especially Luke 4:5,6 lucifer. Only Matthew 6:10 the Kingdom of God, working through his Son Jesus, can effect Ephesians 1: 10…watch and pray
As a resident of Europe, let me translate this for you all:
A women who is a devout follower of capitalism before society, who will protect capitalism for the top 10% at any cost to those below, just as her predecessors have done, has been selected via an act of faux democracy which allows a handful of mostly pro capitalist mostly wealthy politicians to select her rather than the peoples of Europe who have no right to redress, no democracy, over her position.
You must all now applaud as this human has ovaries and that is apparently all that is required to fool us into believing we are making progress.
2050 is too late and they all know it
Sure…they all lie. http://www.geoengineeringwatch.org
Lol..more BS!
By 2050… Sure! With the belligerence of America, there is probably no 2050.
It wasn't an election she was the only candidate to choose from. She is a Neoliberal Globalist it means no change and no reform as per usual with the unelected bureaucrats in the EU.
Wow, she looks like a political Ursula Andress. With her on the saddle in EU, the lose of Hillary could be partly redressed if not also undressed in the U.S. !
….and what difference does that make, I wonder
2050??? really??? let's just assume for a moment that climate crisis is real… and that we have less than a decade to become climate neutral… globally… wouldn't she look like someone to despise?
She stands for the Bilderbergers, war with russia and the end of nations in europe, for the NWO!
The world owes Germany an apology for all the lies said against this great nation. We must expose the criminal Globalists who are bent on destroying western / European peoples and culture.
I wonder how this is going to work .
She is pure evil and stupid. New world order nut job.
I hope she's real proud that she only got voted in because she's a woman. Has nothing to do with her qualifications.
Will she call for the arrest of Donald Trump please? You can try him for crimes against humanity now! Hurray!
She looks like Hillary Clinton. That's all I need to know to pass on this.
Why can't the EU be a Confederacy with states' rights ?
Born with a golden spoon in her mouth as the daughter of a former MP from a fairly wealthy aristocratic family who still own large lands in Northern Germany, she herself failed at every ministry post that was given to her – family, education, military – and because she is well-connected in the transatlantic political, social, and economical network (eg attendant of Bilderberger) in addition to her obligatory russiaphobic rethoric, Ursula von der Leyen alias Flinten-Uschi is destined to inherit the most powerful bureau within the technocratic Superstate EU!
Well deserved.
It's the same con.
what a joke… only these people's vote count. All other EU citizens voted for different candidates. Democracy is dead in Europe.
The 🇪🇺 will go down the drain; with or without the influence of the 🇺🇸. The building-up of the military industrial complex is a sure sign of things to come.
That is a DW production again. German State TV. She has had some of the worst polling in Germany as Minister of war, because she was involved in nepotism and several scandals. Then she stepped back to become EU President. Perfect storm for her. The right-wing Visgard states made her President, like Poland and Hungary. It happened via transatlatnic networks. As she did with the German army, she will start an arms race on EU level an a new cold war. Arms manufacturers will make big money. This is a total train wreck. These politicians are completely deranged from their voters. They also tricked them, because she was never talked about in the campaign to the EU elections a few weeks before. They promoted another candidate. It is a disgrace.
This witch is pure EVIL 😈 Another Killery Clinton 👹
After wasting lots of Germany tax money on consultant and trying to repair a ship for 10 million but ended up spending over 110 million she now can wast EU money… congrats EU….
The world does not need more Conservatives right now, trump is enough…
