France Finds Out

I don’t see what the French are complaining about. As long as it’s not open war, it doesn’t count and there’s nothing to complain about, right?

High-speed train traffic in France was disrupted on Friday, just hours before the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics following a series of “malicious acts” including arson and cable theft, according to the country’s state railway operator SNCF.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), the company said at least three TGV lines had been damaged, including the Atlantic, Northern and Eastern routes. A group of saboteurs set fires and stole cables at the Courtalain, Pagny-sur-Moselle, and Croisilles junctions of the high-speed network. Another attack was foiled in Verginy on the South-Eastern line.

The operator said “a large number of trains are being diverted or canceled,” while the company’s CEO Jean-Pierre Farandou estimated that at least 800,000 travelers would be affected by the disruption. In a statement, SNCF asked all travelers who can postpone their trips to do so or use the classic (non-high-speed) lines until TGV traffic is restored. Repairs have already started, but are expected to continue until at least Monday.

“It is truly appalling. It is playing against the [Olympic] Games, playing against France,” Minister for Sports Amelie Oudea-Castera stated.

How dare they! It’s always fascinating to see how Clown Worlders seem to find it impossible to believe that anyone is ever going to hit them back. They’re like legalistic children, always trying to create new rules and redefine existing terms in ways that restrict others while allowing them to get away with anything they want, consequence-free.

Perhaps it was the Russians, perhaps not. There are certainly no shortage of people in France, some of them even French, who are extremely unhappy with what passes for the French government these days. And regardless of who is responsible, it is eminently clear that all of the Clown World-run societies are going to collapse into chaos, some sooner, some later.

Corrupt Like a Commissioner

We’re going to have to update the old simile, because US Senators haven’t got anything on EU Commissioners when it comes to corruption. Senators at least have to face elections from time to time, and they come much cheaper than anyone would imagine.

The EU Commission concealed details of multibillion-euro Covid vaccine deals with pharma giants Pfizer and AstraZeneca without legitimate reason to do, the European Union’s second highest judicial body has found.

The ruling by the bloc’s General Court covers purchase agreements struck by the EU Commission in 2020 and 2021, at the height of the pandemic, and worth “approximately €2.7 billion” ($2.95 billion), according to the court’s statement published on Wednesday.

In 2021, MEPs requested access to the documents detailing the terms of the deals to make sure that the public interest was protected and the members of the EU negotiating team had no personal conflict of interest. Brussels bosses only provided them with partial access to redacted documents and refused to reveal the identities of the negotiating team’s members.

Brussels promptly reacted to the judgement, which came just two days before a European Parliament vote on Ursula von der Leyen’s bid for a second term as the EU Commission head. She has controversially claimed she deleted key SMS messages between her and Pfizer CEO Albert Bourla, and will be the subject of a European Court of Justice ruling on the matter expected this year.

It’s always fascinating to see how the biggest champions of “our democracy” are unelected elites whose number one priority is thwarting the genuine will of the people and taking advantage of their position to enrich themselves and their masters. Once more, we see the inversion that is always redolent of satanry.

Free Press in the “Democracies”

The Germans are already going totalitarian. No wonder German corporations are heading for the exits. Keep these precedents in mind when the pendulum keeps swinging and they start crying about free speech and freedom of the press.

A decision by the German government to ban a “right-wing extremist” magazine may be linked to an interview it conducted with Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, she has suggested.

She made the claim on Tuesday, hours after the crackdown on Compact magazine was announced by Berlin. The move also affected associated companies and individuals. The 80-minute interview with Zakharova was published last Saturday.

“Apparently, people in the German Interior Ministry watched the interview on Monday. And on Tuesday the newsroom was raided, and the publication was banned,” the spokeswoman said.

She included a selection of her quotes that she believes Berlin may have found objectionable, including: “Germany does not get Russian natural gas for the sole reason that the US has prohibited that.” Later in the day, she uploaded the full video of the interview on social media, saying this was a precaution in case the original becomes censored.

The German government targeted the monthly magazine with the ban, along with its associated online TV channel, as well as other entities and individuals. Search warrants were executed on Tuesday in Brandenburg, Hesse, Saxony, and Saxony-Anhalt, targeting the properties of leading contributors, managers, and main shareholders, it said in a statement.

It’s certainly going to be amusing to hear the screams when media institutions start being banned and the properties of leading contributors, managers, and main shareholders are targeted by governments around the world because someone interviewed an Israeli government employee or a US corporate executive.

The terms of future engagements are being established. When new rules are introduced, don’t hesitate to play by them. But the collapse of the European Union can’t come soon enough for the good of the European peoples.

Those Violent Swedes

One little-known benefit of mass immigration is that it cuts down on all those nasty tourists:

Two British citizens have been found shot dead in a burned-out car in Sweden in a horror case police are now investigating as a double murder. The bodies were recovered after firefighters were called to the scene of a blaze on a dirt road in the Fosie industrial estate in the coastal city of Malmö on Sunday.

It is believed that the victims rented a car at Copenhagen Kastrup airport before they were found in the nearby Swedish city across the border.

They are understood to have been shot before the car was set alight, local media reports.

At this rate, it won’t be too long before travelling to Sweden will become as unthinkable as travelling to Afghanistan.

UPDATE: For varying degrees of “British”.

Barbarians at the Gates

I mean, they’re quite literally at the borders and killing border guards with spears:

A Polish border guard was killed last month by a group of spear-throwing migrants as they attempted to cross the border into Europe, as officials say a surge in arrivals through Belarus is Putin’s latest war tactic against the West.

21-year-old Sgt Mateusz Sitek from the Polish village of Nowy Lubiel was killed after a group of migrants reportedly from Africa and the Middle East attempting to cross the Polish border hurled a volley of makeshift weapons at officers. Several more were injured during the clash.

The improvised weapons appear to have been made out of tree branches and steel blades taped to the top.

If migrants are a war tactic against the West, shouldn’t Angela Merkel be arrested for war crimes? Whatever happened to “welcome refugees”?

Fake Democracy in France

When the parties change but the policies remain the same, what you have is neither a democracy nor a republic. It’s just democracy theater, or as they say in France, le théâtre de la démocratie factice.

Today it is impossible to imagine any of the ultra-left repeating the words of Georges Marchais, the leader of the French Communist Party, in 1980: “It is necessary to stop both illegal and legal immigration. It is totally unacceptable to allow more and more migrant workers into France when our country already has 2 million unemployed French people and immigrants who have already settled here.”

Today, the number of unemployed has reached almost 5.5 million, the amount of legal and illegal immigrants has increased tenfold, but the left does not see this as a problem and devotes itself primarily to fighting ‘all discrimination’. The Socialists seriously discredited themselves during the government of François Hollande, who positioned himself as ‘the enemy of international finance’ but did very little to protect the poor, presenting the ‘marriage equality’ law as his main achievement…

Opponents can be as radical as they like in words, but when it comes to action they are unable to offer a real alternative to the policies of their predecessors. This can be seen in other European countries where ‘extremists’ have been in power. The French far-right and far-left have toned down their criticism of Brussels and, if they come to power, a relatively smooth integration into pan-European structures is more likely than an attempt by Paris at radical reform (as the representatives of the National Rally and the leaders of France Unbowed recently insisted). The statements and actions of the opposition may be vibrant and demonstrative, they may cause riots and protests, they may lead to internal chaos. But they are unlikely to be able to break the general development trend.

The economist Frederick Farah has pointed out that “over the past few decades, we have seen that whatever majority is in power, it implements roughly the same policies, leading to the deterioration of working conditions and stable employment, the dismantling of public services, increased poverty, the reduction of the country’s industrial base, strategic vulnerability and the rise of populism.”

This is why the sovereign nations are finally winning the rhetorical battle against Clown World and its fake democracies, false freedoms, and inverted rights. Seventy years of empty promises and false assurances have not brought about the shiny, sexy, seculartopia of the future that convinced the people of Christendom to abandon their traditions, their faith, and their cultures, but have instead delivered invasion, poverty, depravity, and soon, military defeat.

Reality always trumps rhetoric over time.

Macron Raus

France is finally beginning to realize that the mainstream political-media complex is far worse for the French than the “extreme right” of which it is always warning, as the rest of the continent moves steadily toward a nationalist revival.

The French right-wing National Rally (RN) party and its allies have secured the lead in the first round of snap parliamentary elections, winning over 33% of the vote, according to final results published by the Interior Ministry on Monday.

President Emmanuel Macron called early parliamentary elections after the RN’s strong performance in last month’s vote for the European Parliament. The force formerly led by Marine Le Pen and now by Jordan Bardella won 30 of the 81 French seats in the EU legislature.

In the latest poll following the first round of voting in France on Sunday, the newly-created left-wing New Popular Front (NFP) finished second with 28%, while Macron’s centrist Ensemble bloc won 20% of the vote. The RN and NFP have secured 37 and 32 seats respectively in the 577-strong legislature, while Macron’s party has received just two. A candidate needs to receive over half of the vote to win in the first round. If none does, any candidate who reaches the 12.5% threshold enters a run-off which will be held on June 7.

The next challenge for the French will be to prevent the RN from turning around and embracing more war and more immigration like Meloni did in Italy. But whether the RN embraces their duty or not, it is clear that the people of Europe are done with the decades of multiculti propaganda and the pendulum is beginning to swing back with a vengeance.

How Clown World Lost the Plot

The answer is that the retarded second- and third-generation elites genuinely believe the falsehoods that their evil, but more intelligent predecessors preached:

In May 2023, Reuters reported that the EU had approved $1.61 billion to buy out Dutch farmers whose cattle were deemed overly enthusiastic with their belching, peeing, and defecating. The farmers then started a political party called the Farmer-Citizen movement, backing the anti-establishment Geert Wilders, whose party won the general elections in November 2023, then went on to a second place finish (and a six seat gain) in the EU vote.

In Germany, as farmers and truckers gathered at Brandenburg Gate in Berlin to protest the EU establishment’s crushing bureaucracy on everything from climate change to Ukraine, the misplaced priorities and inability to make ends meet resonated so loudly with the average German that 69% of them backed the protest movement – which would explain the second place finish of the anti-establishment party (the AfD) attacked by the establishment as being in cahoots with the farmers. Turns out that a whole lot of Germans were, too.

In France, 90% of voters backed French farmer protests and were disgusted when Macron showed up at the annual Paris International Agricultural Fair with a bunch of riot squad goons who unloaded their tear gas on presumably innocent cows (although who knows, maybe they were silently setting off some planet-killing farts) while he ran from an initial confrontation with angry farmers. And well, what do you know. It turns out that 90% support for the farmers roughly translated into 93% of French communes voting for the National Rally in the EU elections.

Surely it’s all just a big coincidence. Who knew that messing with people’s food and livelihood while focusing on costly ideological priorities that are mainly of interest to the little elite cabal in charge would ever be the recipe for regime change?

And speaking of self-inflicted wounds that the clowns are inflicting upon themselves, a rather big financial bomb just went off in Japan.

Today the proverbial canary stepped on a neutron bomb inside the Japanese coalmine, because according to Nikkei, Norinchukin Bank “will sell more than 10 trillion yen ($63 billion) of its holdings of U.S. and European government bonds during the year ending March 2025 as it aims to stem its losses from bets on low-yield foreign bonds, a main cause of its deteriorating balance sheet, and lower the risks associated with holding foreign government bonds.”

Regime Change in France and Germany

Macron has already waved the white flag and called for parliamentary elections. Now Germany’s government is almost certain to collapse in the aftermath of the European elections:

Germany’s ruling coalition has been roundly beaten by opposition parties in Sunday’s vote for the EU Parliament, coming in behind the conservatives and the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, according to exit polls. Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s center-left Social Democrats (SPD) received around 14% of the vote, down from 15.8% in 2019, marking their worst results in decades, according to early forecasts from ZDF and ARD based on partial counting.

The conservative center-right main opposition, the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) and the Christian Social Union (CSU), is predicted to take first place with around 30%.

The AfD rose to second place with around 16%. The ultra-conservative Eurosceptic party has lobbied for cutting off deliveries of weapons to Ukraine and ending the sanctions on Russia, calling for peace talks instead. Despite several scandals in the run-up to the election, their support has grown by almost 5% in the last five years.

Literally no one in Europe outside of Poland and the Baltics wants to fight Russia, and the only reason they do is because they think the USA and the larger European countries will do the fighting for them. The idea that failure on the battlefield was going to cause Putin to lose popularity and power was never anything more than pure projection and neocon wet dreams, as we’re now seeing the inevitable result of NATO losing its proxy war against the Russian-supported Donbass militias.

The sooner the Europeans break with Clown World’s totalitarian convergence and restore economic relations with Russia and the rest of BRICSIA, the better it will be for the planet.

Snap Elections in France

MACRON ANNONCE LA DISSOLUTION DE L’ASSEMBLÉE

Après le score historique de l’extrême droite aux europeénnes, Emmanuel Macron convoque des élections législatives le 30 juin et le 7 juillet

Le Monde is reporting that due to the historic success of what is considered “the extreme right” in the European elections, French President Macron has dissolved the National Assembly in order to launch new elections at the end of June.

I suspect this may be in order to hold the elections before Russia defeats NATO and the people of France turn entirely against Clown World.

UPDATE: Macron tonight suffered a major defeat after Marine le Pen’s National Rally party took home a projected 31.5% of the vote following the country’s European Union elections. His Renaissance party meanwhile suffered one of the worst ever defeats for a party in French government, taking just 15.2% of France’s vote.
