Deviating From the Law to Forever Sabotage and Silence the Law-Abiding

[French Dissident and Populist Leader] Marine Le Pen has been banned from running in the French presidential election in 2027. That is the headline — no metaphor, no nuance, just the hard [guillotine] blade falling.

They have not defeated her in the arena of debate or vision. They have simply locked the gates. The queen is removed from the board while the game continues, rigged, trembling with fear of her return.

This is not just a courtroom. It is a theater of ritual execution where she stands condemned. A drama unfolds, stripped of the honesty of tragedy. The victim is more than a political figure. She embodies a nation’s revolt. The French courts, acting as instruments of a supranational entity, have declared their verdict: Marine Le Pen, guilty of daring to resist. They allege that between 2004 and 2016, she “misused” approximately €4.5 million by employing assistants who purportedly served her party, the National Rally, rather than engaging in “legitimate parliamentary work.” Yet, the true specter haunting this proceeding is sovereignty itself.

The stripping of her passive voting rights is no minor legal footnote. It is the deliberate dismantling of the people’s right to choose their leader. The timing reveals a calculated act of sabotage, targeting those who challenge the prevailing liberal-leftist orthodoxy. The judiciary intervenes precisely when national stakes are high and the challenger articulates the voice of the people. Le Pen bleeds where relics remain inert. Her appeal is anticipated, yet such appeals often reverberate as futile gasps in chambers where verdicts are preordained.

We have witnessed this pattern before. The name Georgescu lingers like smoke in the annals of political betrayal. Recall him — the Romanian patriot who dared to wield the people’s language, demanding that Brussels bow to Bucharest. And beyond Georgescu, the image of Codreanu — the Captain — stirs in the shadows, a martyr whose memory still strikes fear in the heart of the bureaucratic empire. Georgescu, like Codreanu before him, refused to kneel, and for this defiance he was exiled from the democratic illusion. He stood on the brink of victory until the machinery of the European Union turned against him. Legal instruments were manipulated, bureaucratic paragraphs invoked, and overnight he was erased from an election he was poised to win. No tanks rolled through the streets. The EU required only parchment and procedural cunning. Brussels remained indifferent. Europe consumes its progeny without remorse. Georgescu’s appeal also amounted to naught as everything is manipulated and fake.

GK Chesterton on adultery:

"The revolt against vows has been carried in our day even to the extent of a revolt against the typical vow of marriage. It is most amusing to listen to the opponents of marriage on this subject. They appear to imagine that the ideal of constancy was a yoke mysteriously imposed on mankind by the devil, instead of being, as it is, a yoke consistently imposed by all lovers on themselves. They have invented a phrase, a phrase that is a black and white contradiction in two words - ‘free-love' - as if a lover ever had been, or ever could be, free.

"It is the nature of love to bind itself, and the institution of marriage merely paid the average man the compliment of taking him at his word. Modern sages offer to the lover, with an ill-favored grin, the largest liberties and the fullest irresponsibility; but they do not respect him as the old Church respected him; they do not write his oath upon the heavens, as the record of his highest moment. ...

Why Are So Many Americans Moving to the Southern Hemisphere?

Opinion by Lau Vegys:

America's problems aren't fixable with patriotic sentiment. They're mathematical realities that don't care about your flag-waving.

The national debt recently hit $37 trillion. By 2033—the same year Social Security's trust fund runs dry—we're looking at debt exceeding $50 trillion. Interest payments alone will consume nearly half of all tax revenue.

At that point, the Federal Reserve will have no choice but to print tens of trillions of dollars to bail out the Treasury. The resulting inflation will make the early 1980s look like a picnic.

And of course, as I mentioned in a recent piece, whether it's $37 trillion now or $50 trillion in about eight years, the headline number is just the tip of the iceberg.

Add it all up—Medicare, Social Security, federal pensions, and other off-the-books promises—and the real financial hole the U.S. government faces is closer to $150 trillion. That’s nearly $1 million per taxpayer.

None of These "Migrants" Were Listed in The Immigration Figures

The Guardian reports that 15,000 Afghans were relocated to the UK in a secret scheme, while Breitbart reported that nearly 24,000 Afghans were brought in, with the British government earmarking £7 billion to secretly house and import them.

The UK taxpayer has no choice but to pay up, while government transparency was lacking.

Whether all these Afghans were vetted remains unknown. Given the reputation of the UK along with many Western countries, the vetting process for migrants is nearly nonexistent, and highly questionable in this case in particular.

Also, in the spring of 2023, while Rishi Sunak was prime minister and many UK military families had no heat or hot water, the government continued to host illegal migrants in plush hotels, at the cost to taxpayers of $8.5 million USD a day and rising. And while homelessness was up over 27% in Britain, illegal, mostly Muslim migrants from the Middle East and Africa, were royally served in those plush hotels. Now it comes to light that in...
