Notes with timestamps:
0:01 This is quite an old speech, it took place in the French National Assembly (the lower house of the French parliament) on October 7th last year.
0:22 Hemicycle = the semi-circular horseshoe-shaped chamber that is common in European legislatures.
1:07 nationals = Le Pen and her party use this term almost as a synonym for "nationalists", often in contrast to "globalists"
2:17 1976 was when France first introduced "family reunification" for immigrants. (If an immigrant was already legally in France, they were allowed to bring over family members too)
2:17 family = I think Le Pen is referring to her party here, not literally the Le Pen family.
2:33 the Schengen area = the area of the EU where there are no border controls. Consists of nearly all the EU and EFTA. Ireland and (formerly) the UK the only countries with permanent opt-outs.
4:00 seven years = Le Pen is referring here to Macron's time as a minister in the government of François Hollande before becoming president himself.
4:05 double language (double langage) = contradictory rhetoric. This is not the same as doublespeak (use of euphemisms) or doublethink (accepting contradictory ideas as both being true) which have different translations in French.
4:12 Platonic here means "academic", with no tangible consequences.
4:28 Rassemblement National (National Rally) = Le Pen's party (formerly called the Front National)
4:41 communitarianism = in French political discourse, communitarianism usually refers to Muslims becoming "a community apart", living in different geographical areas (ie. different parts of the city) with separate cultural and social spaces etc.
4:59 the man front left with glasses is Édouard Philippe, the prime minister. The interior minister Christophe Castaner does not appear to be in the chamber during Le Pen's speech (though he did give a speech earleir in the debate). Philippe is an independent (formerly a member of the mainstream centre-right Les Républicains), Castaner is a member of Macron's centrist LREM.
