New in PJ Media:
Marine Le Pen was leading in the polls for the 2027 French presidential election, but that doesn’t matter anymore: on Monday, a judge in Paris found her guilty of misappropriating European Union funds. She has been sentenced to prison (although she will apparently not serve her sentence behind bars but by the practically equal humiliation of wearing an ankle bracelet, as if she were a career criminal whose whereabouts needed to be constantly monitored), a substantial fine, and most significantly of all, a ban on political activity for five years. That means that she can’t run for president in 2027. Not coincidentally, Le Pen is also the chief critic of France’s leftist political elites and their open borders policies.
Sound familiar? It should. It looks as if the French political establishment has succeeded where the American political establishment failed, although they both tried essentially the same tactic: framing their principal opponent for various crimes so that he or she would either be barred from running for president or rendered so noxious in the eyes of the voters that a once-appealing candidate became unelectable.
The American left managed to get Trump for an array of bogus crimes: misdemeanors elevated to felonies, especially for the occasion, and a liability judgment for sexual abuse based on the implausible and unsupported claims of a fantasist that required the extension of the statute of limitations to bring the case. Nevertheless, they didn’t succeed in getting him banned from running for president or imprisoned. In France, the authoritarian leftists have fared better. Le Pen has no right to appeal her sentence, which means that her political career is essentially over, and the French left can breathe easy for the foreseeable future.
Le Pen’s political career has been ended for supposed crimes that involved, according to a Monday report in The Spectator, “misusing European Union funds.” Yet “the judge accepted that there had been no personal enrichment on the part of Le Pen or her co-accused,” and ended her political career anyway because “a ‘system’ had been set up in 2009 that ran until 2016” that supposedly allowed Le Pen and other defendants to set about “subverting democracy.” The French leftist elites, you see, are saving “our democracy” by barring the main contender for the presidency from running for the office.
Once again: does this sound familiar? The Spectator adds: “Coming just two weeks after Cǎlin Georgescu was disqualified from running in the Romanian election, the judgment will also reinforce the impression among a growing number of Europeans that it is the EU elite subverting democracy.” No kidding, really? “Inside every progressive is a totalitarian screaming to get out,” said the renowned ex-leftist David Horowitz, and here we are. The left is afraid that it can’t win elections anymore, and so we saw all the lawfare against Trump, and now they’ve eliminated the threat of Le Pen. This won’t be the last of the left’s undemocratic actions, either.
There is more. Read the rest here.
Billy says
Leftists are partnering with Islam’s Muslims against all Non-Muslims to help ultimately gain totalitarian power and control. Still, Muslims have their own totalitarian goals as taught in the Quran(Quran 9:5,29,111 and more).
Islam, a Terrorist-Criminal Enterprise, and its predatory believers continually fund, promote, and practice ideological subversion, propaganda, bigotry, discrimination, deceit, supremacy, segregation, hatred, violence, and terrorism as taught in Islamic Law and in Islam’s Quran, and Muslim actions should be legally challenged with a multi-faceted force of Western Laws like Muslims wield against Americans and Westerners(Quran 9:5,29; 49:15; 60:4 and more).
Like a Foreign Terrorist Organization(FTO) designated by the USA Secretary of State, Islam is a MUSLIM TERRORIST ORGANIZATION(MTO) fighting against Non-Muslims and NOT A PEACEFUL religion under Western Law because Islam funds, teaches, and promotes a Terrorist Criminal Organization with Muslims as Terrorists for Allah(Quran 9:5,29; 49:15 and more). Under Islam and Islamic Law, Muslims have the legal right to terrorize Non-Muslims because neglecting this QURANIC DUTY is a Crime against Allah; Jihad means warfare against Non-Muslims to ESTABLISH ISLAM’S RELIGION(Quran 3:151; 9:5,29,111; Muslim Law Manual: “Reliance of the Traveller”, o9.0 and more).
More specifically, Islam, a terroristic-destructive way of life, is a Muslim Terrorist Ideology and Murderous, Criminal Enterprise of intolerance, continuous war, discrimination, segregation, supremacy, genocide, polygamy, propaganda, deceit, hatred, incitement, sedition, rape, terrorism, and violence against all Non-Muslims as taught in the Quran(Quran 2:216; 4:65,89,95; 5:14,64; 8:12,39,74; 9:5,21,29,36, 41,49,73,88,111,123; 21:92; 49:15; 60:4 and more).
Westman says
Maybe an Empire ender for France?
Le Pen may be thankful in the long run that she won’t be in charge when France stumbles into its WW3. Macron was airing his testosterone at Russia along with Starmer, demanding the “coalition of the willing” to backup Ukraine. Can the new French government resist? Are globalist lefties war mongers? Would Muslims join?(sure…) Of course, it’s just a planned sneaky trigger to drag in the US when the French or Brits get clobbered. It seems Starmer is having second thoughts to the old stiff upper whatever.
Russia is responding with 140,000 new conscriptions to end the war on its terms. It’s disheartening to watch the West slide into a mess that could be lethal to all of us over a contest in the Slav family. It’s like getting in the middle of a couples fight and suddenly feeling a high-heel in the back of your head.

The scent of familiarity is in the air.
On July 14, with no other parties remaining, the Nazi government passed the Law Against the Establishment of Parties, which stated, “The National Socialist German Workers Party constitutes the only political party in Germany.” Anyone attempting to establish a party other than a Nazi Party would be “punished with penal servitude up to three years or with imprisonment or with imprisonment of from six months to three years.”
Back to the future! I am thinking there is some genetic mutation that has infected the leadership of European countries. A mutation the leads them to do the same bad things again and again.
Meanwhile in America, President Trump is Hitler, Elon Muck is Hess, all of their supporters are Nazis.

Phil Copson says
To help you out here, Tgusa – the main points of difference between 1930’s Nazism and today’s Leftists is that one group believed in taking total control of society / staging incidents in order to demonise the opposition / banning political parties / using the media to spread propaganda / imprisoning dissenters / driving Jewish students and professors from the universities / carrying out hideous medical experiments / allying with Islam / and having a war with Russia – and the other lot were Nazis.

The Left have already proven they won’t fight against Islam…but rather increase it, until it will be impossible to remove…even with warfare…Europe will become Iran or Pakistan.
They are now waging war on the only parties willing to deal with the problem of migration and Islam…so basically, they’re going to get conquered by the worst dregs of humanity, unless there is a Revolution against their authority.
What’s really sad in all of this is that I think the Left are totally blind to what they’re doing-they just want to hold onto power and they think the next Hitler will come out of the right-wing parties…not realizing that they actually are the present-day Nazis/Fascists.
And history won’t remember how all of this resulted in an Islamic takeover. 50 to 100 years from now, they’ll just say we were “weak” without pointing out that in fact it was a self-caused, needless injury.
All of this could’ve been avoided if they stopped the boats, banned Islam, remigrated the unwanted people that are here…now Europe and the West are reaching a tipping point, where if Muslims continue to increase their numbers and take positions of power-it’ll be near impossible to defeat them without a determined civil war.
See the problems in India and the Mideast…that is what happens when Muslims become a sizable minority in your country or majority. Kidnappings, rapes on an industrial scale, riots, more demands for Islamification, etc…it’ll be a total nightmare…esp. for women/girls.
If Marine Le Pen cannot be allowed back into politics, her party will go on and then there is Eric Zemmour who is tougher than Marine. It’d take him a decade or so to build up his party like the National Rally did…or they could appoint him as the new leader of RN (fingers crossed).
Either way, France is in deep trouble…potentially this could be the last election they have to turn the situation around peacefully…otherwise they’ll fall deeper down that Islamic/African hell hole.

That varies depending on what day it is. Have you noticed how quickly the left in the USA has switched sides on many issues? They are anti EV and pro big pharma. They are anti responsible financial practices and pro fraud and waste. They went from me too to pro rape. They say they are antifascist but are pro islamofascist. They are pro dialogue but will attack you if you disagree. They are pro democracy but only if you vote the way they expect you to. They are anti America but pro Hamas. Feel free to add to that list. I’m sure there is more that I overlooked.

As I wrote, tgusa, I believe they absolutely **know** they are committing evil acts and working for evil against the rest of us.
If someone takes their key and scratches the side of a new car, they know they are doing wrong. It’s the same with these people promoting islime and lawbreaking by “students” and “professors” everywhere. They know it’s evil.
The women are aware that they don’t wish to be raped….and by a gang of vile, stinking mozlums….but they boohoo at the idea these mozlums will be deported or sent to the pen.
And the males know they don’t want their wives/daughters raped, and they don’t want a knife in the back, but’ they’ll bend over backward to make it possible for the vile rapists and murderers to have the freedom to pursue their ‘culture and religion.’

The jihadists took over Syria with Turkey President Erdogan’s arms, training, and cash.
According to an article published in the Trkiye newspaper on Monday March 17, 2025, “Turkey will train the country’s army in two military bases it will establish in Syria.”
The same newspaper reported that “Turkey and Syria will sign a joint defense agreement. According to the agreement, which is expected to be signed soon, Ankara will help Syria if Damascus faces a sudden threat.”
Story continues below advertisement
The Trkiye newspaper also informed the government’s plan to have fifty Turkish Air Force F-16 jetfighters nest inside the new bases to support and protect the ISIS arm -Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS)- from collapse until a new Syrian air force is established, according to the paper.
The American embassy in Syria has warned all U.S. citizens to leave the country due to “the increased possibility of attacks” during the Eid al-Fitr holiday at the end of March, which marks the end of Ramadan in the Muslim world.The embassy posted a notice to its website late on Friday cautioning citizens of potential attacks targeting “embassies, international organizations …
I am screaming for help in Syria who is now controlled by ISIS. Starting from Al-Sharaa who is an ISIS leader who is acting as a new president. He announced the government today and he put his fellow ISIS leaders inthe main cabin positions like the Ministers of Defense (Murahf Abu Qasra), Foreign Affairs ( Asaad Al Shibani), Interior (Anas Khatab), Justice ( Mazhar Alweiss), Energy ( Mohammed AlBashir). All of them are well know ISIS Jihadists.
The Minister of interior, Anas Khatab, has multiple Jihadist books. One of them is called: Islam is a religion of JIHAD. It was dedicated to the JIHAD leaders including Osama bin Laden, Ayman Al Zwahiri, Abdullah Azzam, Abu Mus’ab Al Zarqawi and Mustafa Setmariam Nasar. Genocide in the Syrian Coast: A Cry for Justice
What is happening in the Syrian coast against the Alawite community amounts to genocide in all its forms: physical, biological, cultural, economic, and political.
Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, led by al-Jolani, is carrying out systematic extermination practices including:
– Mass executions and field killings with tens of thousands of victims, including women, children, and the elderly
– Arbitrary detention of more than 30,000 Alawites subjected to torture in al-Jolani’s prisons
– Daily kidnappings, especially targeting women
– Destruction of religious shrines and prohibition of religious practices
– Economic marginalization, dismissal from jobs, assassination of academic elites, and shutting down service institutions
All these crimes are documented in hundreds of videos confirming that the new Ministry of Defense is responsible for these atrocities, where members and leaders from Hayat Tahrir al-Sham and affiliated factions appear boasting about their crimes against Alawites.
Despite similarities with previous international genocides (Rwanda, Srebrenica, Yazidis) that prompted international intervention, the international community still remains a spectator to the Alawite tragedy.
The pressing moral question: How many children must be slaughtered, how many women enslaved, and how many young men must be butchered before the world takes action?
Today we await a strong moral stance from the Security Council to stop these brutal massacres.
We hope the world’s conscience awakens before it’s too late… every passing day means more bloodshed and lives lost!
“The European Commission will provide new humanitarian support to Syrians, both inside Syria and in neighbouring countries, for an amount of €235 million for 2025. Following the collapse of the former government in Damascus, the EU is working at all levels to boost humanitarian aid delivery, including through launching Humanitarian Air Bridge flights.” — European Commission, January 17, 2025.
“International donors on Monday pledged almost $6.5 billion in aid for Syria, hoping to encourage the new leaders of the conflict-ravaged country toward a peaceful political transition after the ouster of President Bashar Assad in December.
From my sources on the ground.
“There is undeniable media distortion and a deliberate effort to obscure the scale of atrocities here. The casualty figures being circulated (both for fatalities and injuries) are entirely unrealistic. The actual death toll ranges between 70,000 to 100,000.”
“The Syrian coast massacres against the Alawites and the Christians did not stop. Also, Kurdish girls and women, Alawite girls and women are kidnapped from Jableh, Lattakia and Homs, taken to unknown destinations, no one knows about anything.”
From confidential sources:
While the killings persist, their scale has diminished.
They now occur sporadically in different areas, claiming roughly 50 to 100 lives daily through kidnappings and executions.
Can you fathom over 50,000 civilians slaughtered in just two days?
All in the name of *jihad*? It’s beyond horrifying.
We pray this nightmare never repeats.
Personally, I believe your work may have saved my life, and the lives of countless others who are still here today.
Without your relentless efforts, the jihadists would have reached us and massacred us all.
There is undeniable media distortion and a deliberate effort to obscure the scale of atrocities here. The casualty figures being circulated (both for fatalities and injuries) are entirely unrealistic. The actual death toll ranges between 70,000 to 100,000, but these numbers are systematically suppressed for multiple reasons, including:
1. Foreign Complicity: The Turkish and Qatari governments are actively supporting the new jihadist-led Syrian regime under the terrorist leader Ahmed al-Shar (alias “al-Golani”). This support includes a coordinated media disinformation campaign to downplay casualty numbers and falsely attribute crimes to factions loyal to the former Syrian government—a narrative that is utterly false.
2. Systematic Cover-Ups: The jihadist regime is erasing evidence through horrific methods: burning victims’ remains, dumping bodies at sea, and burying them in mass graves. They strictly prohibit documentation of casualties, and all entities involved in medical aid or body recovery are complicit in this cover-up, operating under the regime’s authority.
3. Suppression of Truth: Journalists and activists here risk execution or forced disappearance if they attempt to document these crimes. This climate of terror makes verifying accurate figures nearly impossible.
That said, Pamela, entire villages and neighborhoods have been wiped out. In some cases, 100–300–1000 individuals per village were executed—sometimes targeting only men, other times massacring entire families, including women and children. For example, the residential district of [ Hay al-Qusur ] in Baniyas (Tartus Province) was completely eradicated. This is not an isolated incident; hundreds of villages and urban areas have suffered similar fates, proving the death toll is catastrophically high.
I will continue investigating and attempt to compile verified lists of casualties. I’ll also keep you updated on developments that could support your reporting. Let me emphasize: **I have no political allegiance**. My sole aim is to expose the truth.
However, I must insist on **absolute anonymity** for the time being. The jihadist factions here have perpetrated unspeakable atrocities—they would not hesitate to eliminate me if my identity were exposed
This cemetery is dedicated to the victims of the genocide perpetrated by al-Julani’s terrorists in the city of Baniyas on the Syrian coast. I hope you will send international committees to investigate and verify these massacres.

If Mr. Macron had a shred of integrity, he would respond by issuing a Presidential pardon, always assuming that he is empowered to do so, because this is so obviously a stitch up. Other than that, my thought is to wonder whether there is any agency with established expertise in public accounting that could go over the accounts with a fine-toothed comb, to see whether they really do fall foul of the law in the way that is claimed. Also, if this is merely a procedural mistake on Le Pen’s part, as appears to be the case, then it is unlikely that she is the only one, and finding a few more might lead to a review of the official line on the matter.
