— erstwhile a extremist left can't win in a democratic vote, abuses the legal strategy to trap his opponents said Elon Musk on Monday. “This is their standard strategy around the world.
Musk, a technology billionaire who became a close advisor to U.S. president Donald Trump, in fresh months supports the far right across EuropeWhile the White home became increasingly critical of democracy in Europe.
In February in Munich Vice president J. D. Vance gave a sharp speechin which he attacked European governments for their approach to a number of hot cultural issues. Both Vance and Musk — as well as the hard online contingent MAGA — have already identified Romanian ultranationalist Calin Georgescu as 1 of the causes of the alleged legal war after Constitutional tribunal blocked him off in presidential election in connection with allegations that his run in 2024 was supported by a Russian influence operation.
France can now become a fresh favourite subject for the American right, after a stunning court decision Torpedoed Le Pen's increasing candidacy for president of France in 2027.
Le Pen and 24 another co-indictees have been charged Illegal exit of European Parliament funds to pay for organization staff who seldom or never dealt with cases in Brussels or Strasbourg. The court estimated that in 12 years the defendants had embezzled over EUR 4 million (about PLN 17 million), of which Le Pen was personally liable for EUR 474,000.
Son of US president Donald Trump Jr., an influential voice in online right-wing circles, besides joined the discussion. “France sends le Pen to prison and forbids her from running?! Are they simply trying to prove that JD Vance was right about everything?” he asked on social media.
Le Pen was fined EUR 100,000 (about PLN 420,000) and sentenced to 4 years in prison, of which 2 were suspended and 2 were under home arrest. However, these penalties will be delayed by appealWhich, as Le Pen's lawyer confirmed, will be filed.
