Shared Values? Democracy Dies in Europe – Update

Ollioules, France on 6 October 2023.: Marine Le Pen (Rassemblement National) visits an independent day care centre for people with neuro-vegetative diseases.

Update: Marine LePen has broken her silence. She will fight.

However, the judge decided she cannot appeal the five-year ban on running for office.

Original Story

France has major problems with a very unhappy electorate; many are Marine Le Pen supporters. As reported, she has been sentenced to four years in prison but only has to serve two. She cannot run for office for five years, nor can eight of her MPs.

The case against her was a Brussels campaign finance case blown out of proportion. The US media claims she embezzled millions. She used European funds for her national campaign. She didn’t embezzle anything. It’s similar to the case against Trump in Manhattan in that they misuse the terms “embezzle” and “fraud.”

Marine Le Pen angered the globalists in Brussels, prompting them to unearth a decade-old campaign finance violation. They directed French authorities to treat it as a crime, but under French law, it’s classified as a ‘non-crime’ called a ‘délit,’ so she wasn’t granted a jury trial. Instead, three judges, appointed by the president, ruled that even though Le Pen didn’t personally pocket EU money, she should face jail time and a five-year ban from political office. Even if she appeals, the process won’t conclude in time for her to run for president. The globalists have won.

Marine Le Pen is the left’s biggest competition for the 2027 election.

Where are the shared values with Europe? Look what they did to the leading Romanian candidate.

Michael Schellenberger, a liberal man, wrote on X, “The Right is a threat to democracy, the media says. But it isn’t. It’s winning elections and respecting constitutions. It’s the Left that is undermining democracy. It tried to jail Trump, is about to jail Bolsonaro, and just sentenced Le Pen to prison. This is a five-alarm fire.”

One poster wrote, ” Every leader who dares challenge the establishment meets the same fate, prosecution, imprisonment, or exile. Marine Le Pen in France. Bolsonaro in Brazil. Imran Khan in Pakistan. Salvini in Italy. Trump in America. Calin Georgescu in Romania. Different countries, same playbook. The system doesn’t defeat its opponents at the ballot box …. it destroys them in the courtroom. If the people don’t choose who the globalists want, their choice is simply erased. The illusion of democracy is just that.”

Russia issued a statement: “The conviction of Marine Le Pen has violated democratic norms.”

They’re not wrong.

France does not deserve this courageous woman. It invaded itself and allows the EU to govern it.

Europe learned nothing from its history of wars. It now has the EU totalitarian movement running things.

France, UK, Germany are totalitarian like Stalinist Russia, other than they are not disappearing people in large numbers. They are now more subtle and much more organized how they do things.

When democracy doesn’t give commies (the left) what they want, they turn to the courts.

The left in every nation is more authoritarian and more fascist everyday.

The left is using lawfare – with the help of corrupt judges – to neutralize right wing politicians.

They tried it with Trump but failed, in Germany they are trying to outlaw the right wing party,
in Ireland they are trying to prosecute the right wing candidate

about a dozen nations are doing the exact same thing ; trying to imprison the popular right wing candidate

The left are the Fascists, the left are the authoritarians, the left are the Hitlers, the left are the Nazis.

But the evil media are lying, telling their brain-dead gullible listeners that it is right wing people who are the bad guys.

The fake ‘legacy’ media dropped journalism/The Fourth Estate in favour of propaganda/The Fifth Column over fifty years ago. They have betrayed their ‘trust’ and thankfully, more people ARE aware of what they have become – BUT sorrowfully NOT ENOUGH have…

It’s an international conspiracy. They share tactics and rhetoric.

Funny thing about shared values, DEI and other culture destroying ideals is that it kills diversity. Hitler tried that. Think about it. The only thing that preserves cultural values and heritage is national sovereignty and secure borders. Things like integration destroys both cultures being integrated and any hope of preserving a national identity.

Once upon a time when you immigrated to a country you assimilated into your new country’s culture, language, and national identity. So when you came to America, you and your children became American. Otherwise what’s the point? Stay in Iran if you want to stay Iranian, Venezuela if you want to stay Venezuelan, etc…

My point is a pro diversity ideology destroys a country’s soul. I am old enough to remember when we had a true culture of our own. People came here to become part of it, not change it. Europe destroyed itself when the EU was created and policies that push a New World Order are designed to wipe clean all cultural identities past and present.

Funny how those who want to save the whale and preserve the cultural remnants of the ancient past are so eager to destroy the remains of so many rich cultures that exist today. Stop it from continuing here. Keep the border walls up. Keep the history books accurate. The only villains in the world are those who make war, oppress its own people, or want a NWO.

I don’t see us as sharing the same values. Only time we ever really did share common values was after we came to their assistance and saved them from themselves, then they were onboard for awhile. Other than that we don’t share cultural values nor have we ever really been on the same page.
