PARIS — The Paris prosecutors’ office opened an investigation into the campaign financing of far-right leader Marine Le Pen’s presidential bid in 2022.

The probe, which follows a preliminary inquiry, was opened last week over suspicions of embezzlement, forgery, fraud and a candidate on an election campaign accepting a loan, the Paris prosecutor’s office confirmed to POLITICO.

In 2022, Le Pen — then making her third attempt to win the French presidency as National Rally leader — got 41 percent of the vote in the second round, losing to incumbent President Emmanuel Macron.

All over the world, when the Left gains power they immediately take up the tactics of the old Soviet Union.

Everyone should read “The Gulag Archipelago”.

If the cops and military cared about France, all this sh*t would be over in a day or two and they’d have the ability to get the country cleaned up.

The United States??? Yeah.

But it all starts at the local level. That’s where all the cheating happens. And that is where the people matter more than the cops or military.

But it appears, even some of the supposed ‘Constitutional Sheriffs’(Lamb in Az) arent as constitutional as they portray themselves.

But there has been a few Sheriffs that have went public with ‘suspicious activity’ only for their findings to be ignored.

I expected this to be one of the first actions after the election. They will continuously harass the RN with lawfare just like they are doing to Trump here, the AfD in Germany, and the uniparty will do to Farage in the UK.

We do not really live in liberal democracies anymore but "managed democracies" that are really oligarchies.

Yet another political prosecution begins by a fascist government.

The leftist regime that took power in Brazil in 2022 is also prosecuting Jair Bolsonaro, the previous president, who was a conservative and a friend of Trump.
