In Norwegian MSM it is stated that Le Pen’s party is demanding elections. […] Posted by: Norwegian | Oct 6 2025 10:21 utc | 9

Not so clear in reality, because there is an infighting between RN itself.
Due to justice decision, Marine Le Pen can’t run for election. But in Feb. 2026, her case is being reviewed and she might be authorized to run. 
Currently Bardella is the one that lead RN and can run for election – but he’s an empty shell, even weaker in debate than Le Pen (which is already very weak). 
So immediately Le Pen don’t want new election (before being authorized to run for), and Bardella do want it because he feel that it’s now or never (if Le Pen take back control of the party it’s over for him).
So it’s not clear if RN want election tomorrow or not – and there is infighting about this.

Posted by: W | Oct 6 2025 10:29 utc | 10

Also I’d add Le Pen line is more statist, populist and targetting an audience of poor and blue collar, while Bardella is more libertarian, neoliberal and targetting the wealthy and the big businesses. 
But don’t worry: should Bardella or Le Pen manage to be in direct power,  they will quickly turn France to outright fascism regime (we’re currently not very far away from it even with Macron btw)

Yes, but missing the point.
Macron is a pretty-boy sock puppet installed by the rich to enact their policies, which is exactly what is going on.  People say he has been ‘humiliated’ etc., but the government continues to import massive numbers of migrants (i.e., cheap labor), steal money from social programs and throw it at Ukraine, subsidize and bailout the big banks etc.etc.  Meanwhile patriots like Le Pen are forever allowed glimpses of making progress, but it’s always glimpses, and they never actually get any real power, and the years turn into decades… until one day France becomes Pakistan.
From a bottom line point of view, I’d say Macron has been quite a success (for his rich patrons).  When he finally does retire from public life expect him to be well rewarded with various cushy positions on the board of directors of big companies, and feted as a ‘senior statesman’ by the corporate media.

Posted by: TG | Oct 6 2025 11:35 utc | 26

Macron wants war, or at least a large defense budget, but he doesn’t have the money to pay for this nonsense. The French are not passive like us Americans, and will not stand for cuts to social benefits, to pay for weapons that will never be used. It is hard to see what benefit there is for France to subsidize the EU, or for funding Ukraine. Macron is a failure.

Arnault???

Wealth tax would be deadly for French economy, says Europe’s richest man

LVMH owner Bernard Arnault, who could take €1bn hit, says proposed 2% levy ‘aims to destroy liberal economy’

Europe’s richest man, the luxury goods magnate Bernard Arnault, has said that a wealth tax that could cost him more than €1bn (£817m) would be deadly for France’s economy.

The French founder of LVMH Moët Hennessy Louis Vuitton said in a statement to the Sunday Times that calls for a 2% wealth tax on all assets “aims to destroy the liberal economy, the only one that works for the good of all”.

The idea of a wealth tax has steadily gained ground in France because of a political crisis, with the government trying to push through unpopular budget cuts. The idea of a 2% wealth tax on fortunes worth more than €100m has been proposed by Gabriel Zucman, an economics professor who has become a household name in France.

The economist argues that the tax – named the Zucman tax by others – could help France with its squeezed budget. The French president, Emmanuel Macron, this month appointed a new prime minister, Sébastien Lecornu, after the centrist François Bayrou failed to win support for an austerity budget.

Merz, Macron and Starmer, who are all incompetent in various ways. But Germany has committed industrial suicide. I bought a German car recently. I like German cars. But, I read all the specifications, and I saw the car was made in Germany, but the engine was made in Hungary… But why is one of the biggest auto companies in Germany outsourcing the engine manufacturing to Hungary? The answer is energy costs. Germany and its allies blew up the Nord Stream pipeline. Hungary is still buying natural gas from Russia, so their energy costs are much lower and they’re more efficient producers.’

The fact that Germans have their engines built in Hungary isn’t just about energy costs…Germans, for example, also have Audi engines built in China.That has something to do with Brussels and the phasing out of combustion engines.Hungary hasn’t radicalized it and won’t, just the energy costs alone. Well, if the EU manages to start a color revolution in Hungary and is successful? Would this “saving” also be lost, making the car manufacturers’ investment pointless?.
In the past, as an Audi driver or buyer, for example, you would make sure that the car’s engine was also built in Germany by Audi, because Audi has had two different engine production sites since the 1990s. Customers said that engines built in Germany were supposed to guarantee high mileage. And in the 1990s, energy didn’t play a role at all; it was all about wages and working hours.Today…yes, energy is the factor that forces companies to move abroad, but given the political situation of the entire EU regarding energy, it certainly can’t be Hungary, which is considered von der Leyen’s candidate, that will be overthrown.And…Hungary would immediately leave the EU if Putin were to manage to re-establish a common border with Hungary, thus cutting off Hungary’s access to the Russian economic area and the BRICs.

Doubt it makes much difference to the Russians what happens in French politics.  Nor indeed what happens in European politics.   The extent to which the Russians  have written Europe off is illustrated by some remarks made to Helmer months ago:-
 
…………………….
 
Helmer on the US/Russia “peace negotiations”.  (Helmer’s article, from earlier this year,  linked to below.)
 
At the very end of his article Helmer unexpectedly comes up with a quote. From an unnamed source. Could just be saying “This is what will happen if the war continues.” Could be saying “This is what’s going to happen”. However we take it, Helmer doesn’t make stuff up. It’s an odd quote in that it makes no direct reference to the oblasts already part of Russia. My paragraphing:-
 
A well-informed source in Moscow says that Trump and his subordinates have been surprised by the Russian terms for ending the war.
 
“The Russians have told Americans they will have Odessa and a land corridor to Moldova. They have offered ports on Dnieper River for access to the sea for the Ukrainians. There has been no demand about Nord Stream. Money is being discussed on the sidelines but not in the main talks.
 
In the main room [in Riyadh on February 18] Lavrov and Ushakov brought no papers and asked Americans [Rubio and Waltz] to dust off the December 2021 treaty draft.
 
The Russian positions shocked the Americans. They were told the Ukraine will be demilitarized and its forces will be turned into paramilitary and police. The Americans were also surprised how little Russians cared about Zelensky or his British and Europeans backers.
 
The Americans were told there will be no Ukrainian paramilitary force east of the Dnieper – only police. A new Russian demand was tabled for autonomy of eight Ukrainian oblasts, with Kiev army forces removed.
 
In general, the Russians propose turning the Ukraine into a genuinely federal structure with provisions that Banderites can never take power in Kiev and that the central forces will be limited in their capabilities, supplementing the police if and when Banderites take to the streets. The main purpose of any such force will be de-nazification and keeping it that way.
 
There are demands also about the Orthodox Church in Ukraine.”
 
https://johnhelmer.net/the-three-steps-which-way-is-forward-which-way-is-backward-in-russias-war-fighting-peace-negotiating-strategy/
 
That from a discussion on Andrei Martyanov’s site – gave me a bit of a jolt when I retrieved the Helmer quote and noticed the date.  April of this year!  The Russians are playing it very long indeed.  Comment from:-
 
https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2025/04/totally-agree-with-larry.html
 
………………………..
 
Key sentence :- “ The Americans were also surprised how little Russians cared about Zelensky or his British and Europeans backers.” 
 
Since that time 6 months ago Trump has shown his hand.  That means, I believe, that he now has as little influence on how the Russians decide to end the war as the French or the Europeans in general have.

Pakistan gives the USA a foot hold – to cause mayhem in the region.
 
“Pakistan’s Chief of Staff Asim Munir has offered the US the Port of Pasni in the Balochistan region, southern Pakistan. With Washington possibly investing $1.2 billion on the project. The strategic port sits at the entrance to the Indian Ocean, and lies directly adjacent to China’s Gwadar – which has only recently resumed operations due to the Baloch insurgency along Route N85 (the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor). Pasni will also counterweight the possible development of Iran’s Chabahar, which China has recently shown interest in as a stable alternative to Gwadar. Islamabad’s offer comes after Tehran and Delhi signed a significant deal, opening a trade corridor between India and the energy giant Uzbekistan. Munir has also offered the US a major rare earth metals deal, with access to resource-rich areas inland from Pasni, such as the massive Reko Diq fields (at 28.97191, 62.43301).”

Macron won’t hand power over to the socialists. His entire political trajectory has been to put France on the road to nationalist fascism, anti-“migrant” and anti-muslim pogroms, concentration camps for non-conformists and “l’wokisme” as they stupidly call it overseas. Nothing keeps the nation-state together like an internal enemy to hate and despise. Multiculturalism has to give way to nationalist monoculture for the benefit of French capital, who will use this raw material to create legions of cannon and drone fodder for another inter-European war.
The working classes of Europe have a choice: socialism or barbarism. Many have opted for barbarism. I hope they don’t get what they want to vote for, for their sake.

Only a couple of days left on this lets see what Vucic is made of – no matter what happens the coup against Vucic will continue.
 
“Serbia is unlikely to receive another US waiver from sanctions targeting its oil sector due to its partial Russian ownership, Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic said on Sunday, adding that the nation could soon face a fuel crisis.
Washington has granted Belgrade several temporary exemptions from additional restrictions it imposed in January on the NIS oil company, in which Russia’s Gazprom and Gazprom Neft together hold a majority stake. The most recent waiver, issued on October 1, is valid for just one week.
Vucic said on national television on Sunday he believed that no last-minute reprieve was forthcoming, unless he nationalized NIS – a path he said he was reluctant to take.
“We have been working on it for 10 months, we are trying to find a solution and still there is none,” the Serbian leader said. Should a crisis unfold, he added, the country would face a gasoline price hike, but the situation would not be as dire as in the 1990s, when people had to “pour fuel from bottles or buckets.”
Serbia has resisted Western pressure to fully align its foreign policy with that of the European Union, even as it seeks membership in the bloc. Brussels and Washington have repeatedly nudged Belgrade to sever its energy ties with Moscow, a key historical partner. The Vucic government has also accused Western nations of fueling mass protests in Serbia.”

I see the NY Times first reported that Macron named his cabinet then the NY Times reported  Lecornu resigned less than 24 hours after forming his cabinet. That’s NY Times consistency in reporting for you. IMO, Macron will hold onto his office no matter how bad things get until he loses the 2027 elections as there doesn’t seem to be any other way of ousting him alive. Of course, if no government can be formed then no legislation can be passed, the most critical being the budget. Yandex AI suggests the following:”President Macron now faces three options: naming a new prime minister, dissolving parliament and calling fresh legislative elections, or resigning.”
 
We know he won’t resign, and elections will only worsen his position, so his only hope seems to be in appointing a PM whose budgetary proposals stand a chance of being enacted.

It’s impossible to turn France into outright fascism because it is already there. Macron is a perfect incarnation of fascism, officially defined as the fusion of economic and political power. At least the French Far Right pay lip service to getting things done in the name of the people, although they too are most likely to end up being bribed into submission by big business and finance.

On the term “right” having become a self-serving non-label by the powers that be / institutionalized left.
 
I sadly read here quite often that Le Pen and whoever is “far right” or “extreme right”, topped off by Damocles’ sword of imminent “fascism”; that Orbán and the newly elected Czech pres Andrej Babiš are either “extreme right” or “ultra right”, take your pick; and that there are now three far-extreme-ultra right factions in the EU parliament.
 
(By that same twisted logic, Trump, Netanyahu, and Putin are all somehow “literally Hitler” at once, while Zelenskyy is cast as a sainted freedom fighter — a narrative that, unintentionally yet effectively, ends up rehabilitating Hitler himself, the very opposite of what it claims to oppose.)
 
In these hyper-postfactual and polarized times, the MSM commentariat apparently has drifted so far aleft, that anything, well, common sense and critical of #green/#woke/#war is now considered “right”, prefixed by the adjective of choice to enhance disgust towards an audience thought naïve and dim.
 
Do they really think people still believe all those globalist, anti-libertarian, quasi-“socialist” money transfer policies applied in the EU, UK and U.S. over the past 20+ years made the average voter better off at the end of the month, that they should be grateful and elect these same failures over and over again? Own nothing and be happy? And how more “fascist” than the convid lockdown regimes, that of Two-Tier Keir or that of Ursula-will-cancel-your-election can a “democratic” government become?
 
Leaving these misleading “left” and “right” labels out of the discussion might help focus on the real issues.

I find our local situation too depressing to follow, it is too close. We just had a parliamentary election and the labour government is still in power, with Stoltenberg as finance minister. It could hardly be worse.  We have a solid economy, but therefore a juicy target, and they are hell bent to destroy it. I voted for Glenn Diesen’s FOR party which officially got 0.03% of the vote. I don’t know what it is but we are very provincial up here, we live in a replay it seems. We will only follow where others lead I think.
 
I can’t speak for Sweden. We used to be very close (the languages are rather similar). I don’t understand the logic of Sweden entering NATO, I suspect some form of blackmail. I mean, they murdered Olof Palme in 1986, so why not? I have gained some respect for Greta Thunberg on her Gaza activism, even though I despise the climate stupidity.
 
I see optimism from the large Gaza protests in southern Europe, especially Italy and Spain. Apparently there are similar protests in The Netherlands. I am looking for signs that governments in western Europe may fall, I had some hope for Meloni initially, but not anymore. Meloni, Macron, Starmer & Merz all need to go, not to mention the whole EU structure with VdL. A popular uprising is required.

Republicofscotland  58,
 
I read an article yesterday on that subject, [on a site banned here].  Not quite clear what the Pakistanis are up to with this, as “they say” it does not include military basing.  I don’t know if this is the wink-wink nod-nod routine, real or a rerun of Lucy holding the football for Charlie Brown.
 
Since Iran’s Chabahar is exactly the type of port that Russia has sought for centuries and Iran needs a comprehensive defense pact with Russia [and not what’s in place now] it would seem to this observer that this deal could-of/should-of been struck by now but, alas no.  Iran still smarts from the Russo-Persian-wars 1651 – 1828.  If only England could have  been as intransigent with their former enemy, the upstart USA in WWI.
 
Clearly, I my view this obstinance on the Persian’s part as ill advised as it puts Iran at risk of attack by Israel and it’s subordinate, the USA.  The resources required by Iran, with perhaps the exception of SAMs, can be deployed by Russia’s without disrupting their efforts in ex-ukrainia.
 
Iran’s Chabahar port could become a strategically vital part of a Russo-Persian-empire, one that would end the effectiveness of the neocolonialists endeavor in the Baltic.  Quite a coup for Russia but, what would Iran get out of the deal?  This would be valuable to  the Persians in that Russia would be willing to fight for it’s only oceanic-warm-water-port…a nuclear umbrella is a nice thing to have on a rainy day…eh?  And the odds of the neocolonialist ensconced in DC/London/Jerusalem ever allowing an intact Iran to trade freely are exactly 00.oo%.  Iran’s Mullahs need to fuhgeddaboudit…capiche 🤌
 
I suspect, Pakistan’s elites, ever the call girls looking for an easy dollar, sees the US returning to it’s full-time-sugar-daddy role while the elites make some extra cash on the side with China.   Never one to underestimate the English/Anglo-School-boy-crowd, I am sure the English would just love it if they could pimp-out Pakistan to the Charlie Browns of DC.

Full ack! To second my thoughts on the “right” label (#86), Meloni is a prime example of how even a “right” candidate can and will fall victim to the system’s machinery, achieving effectively nothing, if their country is subject to the Berlin-controlled ECB shadow regime. Pure EU blackmail in action in the best ugly tradition of Wolfgang Schäuble who even pressured the Swiss out of their Bankgeheimnis. Meloni won’t be reelected for sure.

Thank you, I get some much needed strength from people speaking like you do in #86. All the best to you.

On your recommendation I watched the Crooke and Judge Nap chat  and suggest others find the time to do it as well. Crooke also explains the situation with Iran. Very dark times.

find the old book
II. The First French Revolution
Illuminism in France—Cagliostro—Mirabeau—Intrigues of Prussia—The Orleanistes—The Reign of Terror—Clootz and Internationalism—Robespierre and Socialism—The plan of depopulation—After-effects of revolution.
Two years before the suppression of Illuminism in Bavaria its adepts had begun their work in France. The “magician” Cagliostro, generally reputed to be a yahoo from Sicily, had been enrolled as an Illuminatus in Germany. According to his own account given in the course of his interrogatory before the Holy See in Rome in 1790:

Right.  Robespierre, Macron what’s the difference?  Possibly the laziest historical analysis yet!
