Update: Marine LePen has broken her silence. She will fight.
BREAKING: Marine Le Pen breaks her silence with a DEFIANT message:
“I’m a fighter. I’m NOT going to let myself be eliminated. I will pursue every avenue of appeal that I can. I have fought for the French people for 30 years and I will keep doing so all the way.”

However, the judge decided she cannot appeal the five-year ban on running for office.
A European judge is basically jailing the entire leadership of France’s largest rightwing political party https://t.co/hqN52F7VnD

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.”
Lawfare against the European right-wing is being taken to a whole new level.

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.
The French people LOVE Marine Le Pen and demand that her “Guilty” Verdict is immediately overturned!

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… Read more »
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… Read more »
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… Read more »
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.
Thats why they gave us the statue of liberty, they couldn’t do it themselves.
Cannot let be to happen without substantial and indisputable proof of fraud. Timing circumstances and penalty do not add up.
What they appear to have done is criminalized the opposition from campaigning. I see no other point made. I don’t know what plane of existence they’re living in but it’s not in the realm of reality.
They live in their own ‘reality’…as convoluted as it is…IT IS THEIRS…
The U.S. and Europe have not had shared values for years, which is what we look for in allies, which is why it’s time for us to leave them to their own accord. We save them twice from becoming what they are now, it’s time for them to live with that decision without us.
More and more it looks like not leaving NATO is “hanging an albatross around our collective neck.
