In Germany, while the center-right led the polls, the Alternative \u2064for \u200bGermany showed a strong second place, again described negatively by the media.

Political firewalls against extremist factions once considered beyond the pale tumbled from country to country. The \u2018cordon sanitaire\u2019 erected by more mainstream parties against the putative descendants of Europe\u2019s fascist movements had collapsed. The far right, headlines blared, was on the march. The initial results of the European Union\u2019s parliamentary elections may point to a definitive arrival. Across the continent, and especially in some of its biggest countries, far-right parties produced strong or record results.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2024\/06\/10\/european-parliament-elections-far-right\">Axios<\/a><\/strong>: \u201cThe center held in some countries, but a surge by the radical right \u2014 especially in Germany \u2014 has put pro-democracy parties on notice.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/eu-election-right-migration-climate-polls-vote-0fbfcb7bd987008e802d70f759fa870b#\">The Associated Press<\/a><\/strong>: \u201cFar-right parties rattled the traditional powers in the European Union and made major gains in parliamentary elections Sunday, dealing an especially humiliating defeat to French President Emmanuel Macron. On a night where the 27-member bloc palpably shifted to the right, Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni more than doubled her seats in the EU parliament. And even if the Alternative for Germany extreme right party was hounded by scandal involving candidates, it still rallied enough seats to sweep past the slumping Social Democrats of Chancellor Olaf Scholz.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Many of these trends reflect political winds in the U.S., where <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/joe-bidens-approval-underwater-in-virginia-as-governors-race-closes-in\/\" title=\"Joe Biden's Approval Underwater in Virginia as Governor's Race Closes In\">voters overwhelmingly disapprove<\/a> of the job that President Joe Biden is doing, especially after millions of illegals have stormed into the U.S., energy prices have skyrocketed, and inflation has wreaked havoc on families.
