A judge has ruled Marine Le Pen is ineligible to run for office, along with eight MEPs from her National Rally party, after they were found guilty of misappropriation of EU funds. The move is the latest attack on democracy in the EU, with judges increasingly deciding elections in Europe. Le Pen has also been sentenced to four years in prison, with two years suspended
The court estimated that the total losses amounted to €2.9 million, as a result of “paying by the European Parliament people who actually worked for the far-right party.” Le Pen was found to be responsible for €1.8 million in damages herself. The judgment also concerns 12 assistants. The prosecutor’s office initially alleged that €7 million had been used in this way.

Investigators accused Le Pen of managing the illegal use of European subsidies between 2004 and 2016, when she served as an MEP. They stated that instead of working in Strasbourg, assistants were to work for Le Pen’s National Rally party in a domestic capacity.

The French firebrand nationalist cut a defiant figure in front of reporters last week, telling journalists, “If the court were to pronounce a sentence of ineligibility with provisional execution against me, it would have no influence on our ability to defend the French people and to censure the government if necessary, including to provoke new legislative elections.”

The 56-year-old has spent decades building her platform to amass broader electoral support, rebranding her father’s National Front, and has failed on three previous occasions to take residence in the Élysée Palace.

Monday’s hearing is expected to begin at 10 a.m., where she will learn if she will have a fourth opportunity — without question her best chance to date — to finally taste victory in the presidential race.

France has become the 3rd NATO country in rapid succession to remove the most popular opposition candidate from the ballot. Like I said before, we are entering a period of time in which the informal becomes formalized and the unspoken becomes explicit.Georgescu, LaPen, and who? Imamoglu,

So, just to summarize the beautiful democracy on my continent over the past year:
1. France: Le Pen got cancelled to run for elections and sentenced jail time through the😉 legal framework 😉
2. Romania: Elections got annulled because Georgescu won them and he got annulled too (and is imprisoned??)
3. Georgia: what’s her name refused to step down and acknowledge the results
4. Estonia: removing voting rights of the Russians living in Estonia
5. Slovakia: PM Fico took some lead to the chest and survived, he’s called an idiot by VDL
6. Germany: Afd got branded like the next devil party
7. Hungary: removing their voting rights are discussed in Brussels and they hate Orban
8. Netherlands: an unelected guy got the Prime Minister title, it’s not a job anymore, just a title

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
