Far-right figurehead Marine Le Pen has been banned from running for political office for five years after being found guilty of embezzling European Union funds, in a politically explosive ruling that has shattered her hopes of winning France’s 2027 presidential election.
Lol, no.
Alt-right is already declaring her a martyr and firing up their base. Even Russia chimed in, proclaiming European democracies as fake now. With absolutely zero self-awareness. Navalny-who?
I refuse to believe they lack self awareness. They just choose to embrace the hypocrisy in order to fuck with us.
Who with a working brain pays any attention to Russian talking points? They were flooding the zone with shit long before Bannon claimed credit for the idea.
