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.
Of course they’re triggered. What if we did that in America? MAGA wouldnt get to be in power.
Huh, I wonder why they’re so concerned about anti-corruption laws and their enforcement
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.
People really have no clue what’s going on in France, huh.
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.
This is rather tame considering how France has historically handled its corrupt leaders and authoritarians.
