10th straight week. This is big and it isn't limited to Paris. Macron is in trouble.
If it was that big why not a wide angle view?
Let me check with the provider and get back to you.
Yellow is the new black...
Tell me again why 10 straight weeks of civil unrest in France is a good thing?
Because Macron’s government is the focus of their discontent.
Because somewhere, somebody must start to resist the global power grab by the leftist elite.
“Macron is in trouble”.... with his Human Global Warming Bubble?
Hoping the arrogant socialist in disguise resigns.
Me too. I despise him.

Yes, I saw that and maybe that’s why today’s protest is so large? What is really amazing is the media blackout. Macron, as a fellow traveler, is getting cover from our presstitutes.
Paraphrasing a protester:
The elites continue to raise taxes because they worry about the end of the world. IM worried about the end of the monthtwelve times a year!
Everyday people see the money they need to live from one month to the next taken away to feed the elites kleptocracy under the guise of saving the earth.
Even your over-taxed Frenchman has finally had enough!
Did anyone say, let them eat cake yet?
Feed just cut off - Sputnik & Ruptly both down?
Ruptly has multiple feeds. I’m on one now.
I found it. thanks
That is exactly what these Yellow Vest protests are: resistance to Globalism. That is my opinion. It is having an effect around the world. However, I think Trump started it. Brexit fits in there somewhere.
Need to encourage/support them.
France had a Socialist government for five years before Macron, so I don't think the yellow vests particularly mind leftist governance.
Polls also show that support for Marine Le Pen's new party, the Rassemblement National, topped out in December at 24% and the average Frenchman is tiring of ongoing civil unrest.
This means there is great potential for the yellow vest movement to back fire politically on the French right...which I'm sure is what Macron is counting on.
