Election interference? Czech billionaire accused of changing headline to favor of Macron in French magazine

“Anger or chaos?” was the headline France’s Marianne magazine editors chose to publish ahead of the second round of the French presidential election.

However, Czech billionaire Daniel KƙetĂ­nskĂœ, the magazine’s main shareholder, saw it differently and changed it to: “Despite anger, avoid chaos,” in a headline change which clearly sympathizes with the incumbent French President Emmanuel Macron. Employees objected to this in a statement issued on Tuesday, however, according to the editor-in-chief, it was a simple editorial change.

The revised headline for the magazine issue toi be released today, just days before the second round election vote, caused a stir. The photo remained the same — focused on the eyes of the two candidates, Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen. But the message is completely different.

According to the editors, this amounts to an interference with the independence of the media.

“This intervention by our majority owner, Daniel KƙetĂ­nskĂœ, represents a serious attack on Marianne’s editorial independence,” Marianne Society of Editors wrote in a statement. “It happened even though (KƙetĂ­nskĂœ) personally, and even twice, promised the journalists that he will respect this basic principle. Until now, he has done so.”

This statement was shared by Marine Le Pen who thanked the journalists for drawing attention to editorial interventions in the media. The editorial staff of Marianne however refused any idea that they want to side with anyone, according to Czech news outlet Irozhlas.

KƙetĂ­nskĂœâ€™s growing French portfolio

On Wednesday, the editor-in-chief of Marianne, Natacha Polony, released a statement in which she claimed the editorial management decided on the change independently. The Thursday issue will thus be released with the headline: “Despite anger, avoid chaos.”

Polony justified the headline “with respect to the citizens’ extreme dissatisfaction with the system.” She added that this has provoked support for Le Pen whose rise could “cause disorder and deepen disagreements” often evident in French society. When choosing the headline, she considered both the opinion of the editorial board and of the CMI group in which KƙetĂ­nskĂœ is a majority shareholder.

KƙetĂ­nskĂœ also owns a part of the French Le Monde daily and has a 5 percent share in the TF1 broadcast network. KƙetĂ­nskĂœ has not made any comments on the issue.

“A good church is a burning church”: Anti-Christian graffiti discovered in Foix, France

This is the third time that the outer wall of the abbey church of Foix (photo)has been damaged. Incidentally, the town priest suspects that it is the work of a single person. During the Easter weekend, he discovered that the following had been written in spray paint: “A good church is a burning church”. The priest immediately informed the mayor Norbert Meler, reports France 3 RĂ©gions on Wednesday April 20.

The latter had the wall repainted by the city administration on the same day. He deplores an “attack on public property, on things that belong to everyone and that we pay for with our taxes”, but does not want to go into detail about the content of the message because he fears political appropriation a few days before the second round of the presidential elections, according to France 3 RĂ©gions. He assures that a complaint will be filed, as it is every case when graffiti is discovered. Father Edouard de LaportaliĂšre wants to remain lenient: “I thought it was a cry of suffering. It is certainly a suffering person who must find this means of expression. It’s a pity there are no alternatives,” he said.

He claims to have recognised this writing, which ” had been found on buildings in the community before, urging people not to believe in the church”. He invited the person he described as “suffering” to speak to him. According to a parliamentary report published in February, 857 anti-Christian incidents were counted in 2021, mainly involving damage or theft related to religious buildings.

Germany’s Inflation Surpasses 30 Percent – Highest Since 1949

Presidential debate: Macron ‘arrogant’ but more convincing, Le Pen ‘closer to the French’

On Wednesday 20 April, Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen faced off during a televised debate that attracted 16,5 million viewers. After two and a half hours of exchanges on the subjects of purchasing power, ecology and immigration, BFMTV conducted a survey of a sample of 650 people.

The results of the Opinion 2022 survey carried out by the Elabe institute showed that the President of the Republic was judged more convincing by 59 percent of those polled, compared to 39 percent for the candidate of the National Rally.

The study also stressed that Emmanuel Macron had more qualities necessary to be president of the Republic, 53 percent against 29 percent for Marine Le Pen. Some 19 percent of respondents were unable to decide between the two candidates on this question. On the other hand, the Head of State lost points by being judged by 50 percent as the most arrogant, against 16 percent for Marine Le Pen. The latter was considered by 37 percent to be the closest to the concerns of the French, compared to 34 percent for Emmanuel Macron, and the one who could change most things by 51 percent, compared to 29 percent for her opponent.

Marine Le Pen reminded Emmanuel Macron of the 600 billion euro debt, “two thirds of which have nothing to do with Covid”.

They will face each other at the ballot box on Sunday, April 24.

Grand Mosque of Paris urges Muslims to vote for Macron and defeat Le Pen

Top Islamic organizations are racing to line up the vote of France’s Muslim population behind Emmanuel Macron for Sunday’s second-round vote.

According to the rector of the Great Mosque of Paris, Chems-Eddine Hafiz, “abstention from voting and the blank votes will strengthen the far-right wing.” In a video statement posted to social media, he also claimed that “malicious forces are speaking out today calling for the banishment of Muslims.”

“How to react to this malevolence that is becoming commonplace and taking hold in people’s minds?” he asked before answering his own question: “By voting in the continuity of the Republic.”

“To vote means to exist. To vote means to assure the future generation the dignity and pride that we do not have the right to mortgage (like) our children’s future by remaining passive witnesses of an imminent political disaster,” Hafiz added.

The Grand Mosque of Paris is not the only high-profile Muslim organization backing Macron in the election, with the Organization of Muslims of France also calling for its members to vote for Macron on Sunday, as reported by CNews.

Hafiz warned that there are some who are promoting “hateful and misleading” speeches against Muslims before encouraging people to vote for the candidate of La RĂ©publique en Marche.

The Organization of Muslims of France claimed it was aware of the laws governing political neutrality required by their mission, but also said it is crucial to act as “responsible citizens.”

Le Pen has consistently spoken out against mass immigration and has even promised a referendum on immigrationshould she win the presidency. With France’s Muslim population growing each year, both through immigration and births, the Muslim voting bloc has become powerful. In order to ensure that immigration from the Middle East and North Africa continues unabated, they have a vested in interest in a Macron victory, even if he is not their ideal candidate.

The endorsements of the incumbent French president were made via two press releases published on April 13, and April 15.

France: A Paris city council employee who converted to Islam and Majid, an underage Algerian, are put on trial for planning an attack in the vicinity of the ÉlysĂ©e Palace

The defendants, arrested after an unprecedented police investigation, were brought before the Paris Special Court for allegedly planning an attack near the ÉlysĂ©e Palace.

This is the culmination of an operation that began in 2019 and required an extraordinary effort by various police and intelligence agencies. Five people were brought before the Paris Special Jury Court on charges of “criminal terrorist organisation”. They were radical Islamists and planned an attack for which they targeted the area around the ÉlysĂ©e Palace.

The 39-year-old Alexandre B., an employee of the Paris municipality who converted to Islam, publishes heinous videos of Daech and collects information to obtain weapons. The Parquet National Antiterroriste launches an investigation and the DGSI is able to carry out a cyber-infiltration: It is carried out by an agent who calls himself “Abu Mohamed” and introduces himself as an admirer of the Islamic State.

A new protagonist, Karim B., also appears. He calls himself “Allah’s Samurai” and is described as a dangerous schizophrenic who writes notes justifying the murder of women and children. He lives in a foster home in Chelles in the department of Seine-et-Marne and has convinced his educators that he is deradicalised. (

An election went well in Europe, and George Soros is not happy

By Andrew Benjamin

The E.U. is corrupt, tyrannical, autocratic, and undemocratic.  It expresses the very characteristics of which it has accused Hungary, Poland, and its leaders.

On the take, bribed, spiteful, woke, and unjust, the E.U. has come unhinged after their plans to dominate Hungary’s people failed after the elections of March 3.

One of the key players aligned against Hungary is the billionaire oligarch George Soros, who backs a well funded web of NGOs, media, and lobbyists.  Uncle “Gyuri” has been clear about his desire to punish Hungary using the E.U.’s sanctions mechanism: “I call on the EU to make Hungary a test case.”

Hungary’s two sins?

  1. Hungarians want Soros to harass some other people.
  2. Exercising democracy.

Globalists have proven themselves repeatedly to be authoritarian tyrants, unhesitatingly purveying propaganda to justify their positions. Soon after Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban won a landslide victory (his fifth), the EU frothed with rage. As the EU is unhappy with the election results, it is preparing to sanction Hungary. 

The E.U. called Hungary’s unwillingness to take a knee “Rule of Law breaches” — laws made up on the fly, with advance knowledge that Hungary has no way not to breach them.  Take the E.U.’s objections to the 92% results of a referendum — direct democracy and the will of its people — that ends the sexual indoctrination of its children by the selfsame E.U.’s chosen pedophiles.  Ninety-two percent of the people chose how they are to be governed.  The E.U.’s bureaucrats agree that the Dutch P.M. who rules another nation should decide the outcome of Hungary’s elections.

“As far as I am concerned, then there is nothing left for them in the EU,” Rutte said.

“The goal is to force Hungary to its knees regarding this issue. They have to understand that they are either part of the European Union and the community of shared values we are,” Rutte added, Euronews reports.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no “shared European values” promoting the teaching of transgenderism and homosexuality to non-consensual pre–sexual activity children.

Just two days after Viktor OrbĂĄn’s internationally supervised electoral triumph, George Soros’s paid off and miffed E.U. puppets, the European Parliament, and its court, which had bet on a different outcome, announced that the E.U. would impoverish Hungary by withholding E40 billion in COVID relief and reconstruction funding.  The Hungarian nation was entitled to these by virtue of its having contributed its part to the E.U.’s wealth.

Hungary participates in the euro economy and gives more than it gets.  The 40 billion is Hungary’s money.

The E.U. has learned nothing from Brexit.

Hungary has.

Brussels will pay a price for trying to queer Hungary’s children, the movement headed by the intolerant queer Dutch P.M. and his “greens.”  The E.U. will fail to replace Hungary’s churches and synagogues with mosques, and Hungary’s population with Syrian Muslims.

Listen up, E.U.: Hungary has never taken a knee and never will!

Hungary was destroyed in two wars in the 20th century.  It is not willing to be destroyed again.  Hungarians fought off two Ottoman wars and refused to be subjugated.

Hungary will remain neutral in Ukraine to avoid a bigger penalty than the E.U.’s.  Being laid to waste and rubble in a new war right next door is the bigger penalty.

Whereas in other E.U. nations women are regularly being molested and raped, Jews spat on, beaten, and killed, and their property vandalized, Jews in Hungary are safe.

Hungary remains neutral in the Ukrainian conflict.  There is the potential of Russian genocide against the 200,000 ethnic Hungarians in Transcarpathian Ukraine, a situation that is unique to Hungary.

Maybe the Dutch P.M., who wants to “queer Hungary’s children” can take that chance with his own, but Hungary will not.

By holding up forty billion euros in COVID and reconstruction funds, the E.U. has been extorting the Hungarian people to vote for the E.U.-approved candidate, or deprive Hungary of infrastructure, roads and bridges, hospitals, medical care, food, and schools.  The money owed is not welfare payments, as the E.U. publicized it.  Participation payments for Hungary are after wealth transfers to the E.U. that Hungary made in commerce — far more in benefits than the E.U. returns to Hungary.

The welfare of children is more important to Hungary’s parents than the perverse desires of deviants, freaks, pedophiles — and gay Dutch prime ministers.  OrbĂĄn intends to stop these degenerates at the school door who would groom Hungary’s children.

The E.U.’s sexual fluidity mental illness will cost NATO, too, because Hungarians are not kneeling in their sandbox, either.  Hungarians who must hate Viktor OrbĂĄn (according to the global media) have voted again, for the fifth time, in the fifth landslide election, to reinstate their dictator, tyrant, and autocrat.

If the E.U. or NATO weakened eventually, they would only have themselves to blame.  After all, that is exactly what the Kremlin wanted all along — a weak NATO that won’t stand up to Russia.

Remember, Hungary didn’t take a knee to the Russians in 1956, either.

No nation will allow the extortion of its people by the unelected bureaucrats of Brussels.  For years, the Soros-bought E.U. has waged war against Hungary’s democracy, independence, economy, currency, media, citizens, history, legacy, security, and culture.

Their games have just ended — just not in the E.U.’s favor.
