France did the thing that Democrats are too scared to. I hope it works
Nothing to do with Democrats. This has everything to do with American Politics; Republican, Democratic, Independent.
Corruptions only friend is freedom from responsibility and accountability. We have that pretty dialed in here in usa.
there isnt a left in USA THOUGH, democrats are center right at most. they all kinda support some kind authoritarian leader.
You’re saying that like the massive variety among them is a monolith
Le Pen is reportedly accused of wrongfully diverting $5 million in funds earmarked for the European Parliament to staffers of her nationalist, xenophobic party, the National Rally, over a 12-year period.
I hate soft worded journalism. She isn’t reportedly accused of shit. She was found guilty.
Not soft worded. It’s downright wrong.

Russian asset get’s mad when another Russian asset get’s pinned.
France has to crack down on fascism … you know why? … the people would literally burn the entire country down than allow fascism to raise its ugly head again in their country. They are the type of people that will rip up the asphalt and cobble stone, build walls and throw them at police to protest government.
The US think that they would do the same if it happened in their country but they’d rather wait until a full blown civil war is happening and government has directed drone strikes against their house … but by then, there won’t be much of a country left to save, or even have the remnants of a country worth saving.
And the French never forget.
In 2019 they vandalized 60% of all speed cameras in the country.
Simple things like this are why I love the French.

The Paris Fishwives march on Versailles is one of my favorite historical antecdotes. They basically walked up to the soldiers, disarmed them, then marched up to the king and court and told them what for!
Pretty sure it was unlearned 1804-1870, and again 1940-1944.
i’ll grant you the prior but absolutely not the latter. the french resistance tied up german resources in the western mainland they couldn’t afford to do
And then immediately after the war they went to town on Algerians. Look up “ici on noie Algeriens”.
Their police was rebuilt by an honest to god fascist and just last election 33% percent voted for the far Right bloc. The French Far Right is currently stronger than then German one.
Local government still has a legal obligation to ensure that every town and village has a functioning bakery, so no-one has a revolutionary urge.
Are they required to bake cake?
And death, yes.
Yes, round our way the speed cameras are buried under a tower of tractor tyres. It’s beautiful.
Le Pen’s party got 30% of the votes last year. They won the popular vote. Just not enough constituencies to win the most seats. Fascism has raised its head already.

People really have no clue what’s going on in France, huh.
Given the number of kids Elon has had. His death would be one of the greatest acts of wealth redistribution humanity has ever seen.
Except I seriously doubt any of his kids are going to get anything.
Where do you think it’ll go? genuine question.
Probably some other CEO or whoever he designates as a successor (his relatives won’t have a say. I don’t think his bratty toddler son will get that much, either). The way how these corporations are run are like the Roman empire. Run by backstabbing jackasses and who is the backstabbiest of them all will probably get it.
Of course they’re triggered. What if we did that in America? MAGA wouldnt get to be in power.
This is rather tame considering how France has historically handled its corrupt leaders and authoritarians.
Meanwhile, congress dems: damn, I just reached my one billionth twiddle! 🥳 🎂

She was also sentenced to 4 years in prison (2 suspended) and a 100k€ fine.
But she will (already has?) appeal this ruling. The ineligibity, however, was ruled to be immediate, even while the trail is awaiting appeal.
Didn’t they invent a machine that gives the closest shaves and haircuts you’ve ever seen? So close you will never need another again?
yeah, but we don’t kill people anymore, that’s a fascist thing. Only the far right wants the guillotine back.
That’s a bold claim.
