Interrogé ce mardi sur le cas Rachline sur France Inter, le vice-président du RN Sébastien Chenu botte lui aussi en touche : “Je fais pas la police de la photo. (…) C’est pas ça le fond, c’est la politique que défend David Rachline.”
Le RN fait la chasse aux « brebis galeuses » mais refuse de voir une de celles qui mène le troupeau : son vice-président David Rachline peut donc s'afficher avec un militant néonazi multicondamné sans susciter la moindre réaction de son parti.
Vice-président du parti et proche d’un néonazi : au RN, le tabou David Rachline
Le maire de Fréjus ne cache pas sa proximité avec Logan Djian, un ancien leader du GUD condamné à plusieurs reprises pour violences. Pourtant, aucun des cadres du RN interrogés ne juge nécessaire de …

Huge props to Mamdani for just saying outright in the White House that he's a democratic socialist next to the president whose base is frothing at the mouth at the idea of war against the left. That really takes guts.
Q: Are you affirming that you think President Trump is a fascist?

MAMDANI: I've spoken about--

TRUMP: That's okay. You can just say yes. I don't mind.

NEW: Trump's "National Security Strategy" remains unpublished.

But sources gave us a taste:
—Obsession over the health of Western civilization
—Rage against the “erasure" of European culture due to migration
—Aim to boost MAGA-aligned political parties abroad

…and much more:

Trump’s Unpublished National Security Strategy Is Stephen Miller’s Far-Right Wet Dream
The president’s new national-security draft document rants against migration and cultural “erasure” – and endorses far-right political parties abroad, sources tell Zeteo.

How about we shut down the government for this very popular and specific goal and then, hear me out, we hold out for like a month and a half and then, ok this part is important, after a watershed election where we ran the table, ONLY THEN, fold and don't get the one thing we said we wanted.

Devastating poll that should serve as a wake-up call for the parties of the French left as they continue to argue amongst themselves. 22 % of respondents say they sympathize with the RN, compared to 8% for Socialists, 8% for La France Insoumise, 5% for Greens. www.lemonde.fr/politique/ar...

Frustrated that a single mention of Martine Vassal in an English-language article requires so much explanation. Yes, she's the head of the département (what is that?). Yes, she's also the head of the metropolitan government (what is that?). Yes, she's also running for mayor of Marseille.
