My biggest fit of -cynical- laughter in a while.
Macron saying that racism and hatred based on religion can have no place in France.
Meanwhile the son of the head of French national police is the leader of a neo-fascist group.
But "it's not an issue" according to the government.
Si tu veux la paix, prépare la grève !
Depuis l'élection de Donald Trump aux États-Unis, on entend beaucoup parler de la guerre et des efforts que nous devrions faire. Le milliardaire américain, aux propos incohérents et provocateurs, est soutenu par les hommes les plus riches de la planète.
"France's economy minister said Sunday, April 13, that he wants to make a temporary tax on the wealthy into a permanent levy to make government financing "more equitable". Individuals earning more than €250,000 a year and couples with a joint income of more than €500,000 will this year pay a minimum 20% income tax."
"France could recognise Palestinian state ‘in June’, says Emmanuel Macron"
Couldn't read the article, as it's behind a pay wall, but the headline seems like wise words. Dominique de Villepin: Trump is not the world's disease, he's the symptom.

"Marine Le Pen, the French far-right politician was found guilty on Monday of embezzling EU funds and she was barred from standing in an election for five years, with immediate effect."
Es scheint der skrupellose #Nazi Victor #Orbán gewesen zu sein, der das widerliche "Je suis #Marine" in die Welt gesetzt hat. Und damit das Andenken an die Terroropfer von Charlie #Hébdo schändet.

In case you were wondering, yes I did toast to Marine LePen being barred from running for public office for five years. No president LePen, and if we're lucky, Macron will call snap elections in the summer again and she automatically lose her seat.
Fuck fascists. Especially those with ties to Vichy France.

Real countries bar criminals and fraudsters from running for office.
“French far-right leader Marine Le Pen is barred from seeking public office for embezzlement”
Feinde der Demokratie durch ein rechtsstaatliches Verfahren an der Kandidatur für ein Amt zu hindern, ist genau das, was eine wehrhafte #Demokratie tun muss.

EDIT: Viiden vuoden toimintakielto - eli ei pysty osallistumaan seuraaviin pressanvaaleihin JA neljä vuotta linnaa #MarineLePen ille!
"Vankeustuomiota kuitenkin supistetaan kahdella vuodella ja jäjlelle jäävät pari vuotta Le Pen voi viettää kotonaan elektronisen valvontalaitteen kanssa."
"The #Trump administration is widening its campaign against #DEI to foreign companies, after launching a crackdown against US media groups such as Disney."
"The letter, sent by the American embassy in Paris, stated that Trump’s executive order applied to companies outside the US if they were a supplier or service provider to the American government."

If France would do with the US what the US is doing with Ukraine.
