BREAKING: Marine Le Pen's headquarters RAIDED by police in 'scandal' investigation
Express Co. (UK) ^ | Feb 20, 2017 | Peter Allen

A team of anti-fraud officers entered the building in Nanterre, the Paris suburb, while the 48-year-old Front National leader was on her first ever official visit abroad, in Lebanon.

An investigating source said: "A raid is underway. Its aim is to find evidence related to the ongoing enquiry."

A spokesman for Ms Le Pen immediately accused them of carrying out a "media operation whose goal is to disturb the course of a presidential campaign".

Rather remember the “Song of Roland.”

It figures. Drudge website reports she’s rising to the top of the polls.

Excellent summary of the forces that plague the west. The nation-state is the main target of these forces. Trump. Le Pen, Farage, Wilders & the rise of Brexit are all targets.

That would work too to get rid of the Muslims, but I would rather Le Pen survive.

Well, if so. It is time for Trump’s Hammer.

As per the Daily Mail article from a week ago she gave her bodyguard some bogus parliamentary position (EU parliament, not French parliament, as she is an MEP) to the tune of 6,000 or 8,000 euros/month.

Really dumb move while she’s trying to stick it to the EU. What, they weren’t going to try to dig up some dirt on her?

Should’ve stayed squeaky clean. Who does she think she is? Hillary?

Not sure why you appear to think embracing the historic epic of the French would hurt Miss Le Pen. What she needs is a great rallying of the French people, determined to regain control of their own destiny. Roland is to historic France what William Wallace is the Highland Scots--or St. Patrick is to the Irish. By contrast the French Revolution morphed into a pursuit of egalitarian fantasy--the mother of the present malaise in the West.

(Slogans, useful to demagogues, as opposed to the multi-generational process of heritage building.)

The French seem to have their own set of RATs.

So, Marine Le Penn is in Lebanon heh?

If she wants to see the future of France, Lebanon is about as good of a place to go.

There’s a popular saying these days:

Beirut was once the “Paris of the Middle East”

Today, Paris is the “Beirut of Europe”

More likely they want a list of her major supporters so they can start twisting arms and breaking heads.

They want to homogenize the general population. Racially, religiously, and economically.

Carbon Credits will be the currency, Muslims will be the enforcers and given free run over the general population.

All executive level government workers will be feudal lords and the California Mega wealthy and the Techno Giants are the aristocrats or beautiful people. The scions of the Ivy league legacies will become the prince and princes where are politicians come from.

I really expected Obama to arrest and raid Donald Trump and his campaign organization. Why didn’t he? I don’t know. I think think he had the cooperation of military leadership up and until that point but once he crossed that line he was on his own.

Carbon credits were the way they were going to expunge the middle class. The final blow. Billions of dollars spread around the world....
