French Court Lifts Ban on Le Pen Standing for Next Presidential -- But Slaps Her With House Arrest That Will Prevent Her from Campaiging Outside Her Home
NIGEL FARAGE RESIGNS HIS SEAT IN PARLIAMENT

First: Nigel Farage has resigned over his personal finances scandal, which I naively assumed was a lot of smoke and partisan nonsense.

Revealed: Nigel Farage secretly funded by convicted criminal
The Reform UK leader did not declare benefits including staff, security and housing by crypto-gambler George Cottrell, our investigation reveals

Beege Wellborn writes that Farage could have accepted these payments from "generous friends" if he disclosed them -- but apparently, he did not.

Farage appears to have broken MPs' rules by failing to declare that Cottrell provided funding for his operation in the year before his election.
We can also reveal that:
• The Reform leader received "in kind" benefits ranging from his back office to his private security, staff, transport and accommodation.
• Cottrell recruited and paid three staff to transform Farage's social media presence, producing content on immigration, human rights law and political correctness, and that promoted Reform...

Well, this stinks. Though I know a lot of #Based people have been very much against Farage, who they claim is a soft liberal who actively promises to not deport all the migrants. They prefer the Restore movement, led by Rupert Lowe, who led that private inquiry into the grooming gangs.

What happens to Reform now? I don't know.

Meanwhile, in France, the lawfare against Le Pen continues.

The ban on National Rally leader Marine Le Pen running in the 2027 French presidential election was overturned by the Paris Court of Appeal on Tuesday; however, other aspects of the ruling may still derail her campaign.
After over a year of waiting, the appeal court finally issued a ruling on the eligibility of three-time candidate Marine Le Pen to stand again in next year's race to replace Emmanuel Macron.
Le Pen faced a five-year ban from standing in any election in Europe over alleged embezzlement of European Union funds intended for her party's use in the EU Parliament, which were claimed to have been used to pay for party operations in France.
On Tuesday, the Paris Court of Appeal reduced her sentence from five years' ineligibility to 45 months, with 30 months suspended. This means that from the initial ban issued in March of last year, her 15 months of ineligibility would expire well before the April 18th vote next year, Le Figaro reported.
However, the court also handed down a €100,000 fine and sentenced her to three years in prison (suspended) and one year of house arrest with an electronic monitoring tag, which would likely severely limit her ability to campaign.
Le Pen had previously stated that she would not run for the presidency if she were subjected to electronic monitoring by the court. She has previously stated that if she is prevented from running, she would back her long-standing deputy, Jordan Bardella, to run in her place.

Below, Farage attempts to rally the faithful.

Farage has a long history of saying that Islam is the future of England, positively.

He was good on Brexit, and he's been coasting on the reputation ever since.

I'm one of them, but I'm not necessarily "against Farage." He was good on Brexit, he's done a great deal for his country, and his voice belongs in whatever coalition emerges on their Right.

But he's a British establishment stalwart, and their immigration policies are at odds with the anti-globalist Brits they attracted with Brexit, and common sense, for that matter. He is absolutely not the guy to purge the country of its Arab poison. It has to be someone else.

She was going on about how she never knew how many rules she was unconsciously following every minute of every day until the rules were removed.
Example: "you can't have dinner now because it 4pm. But I'm hungry now. But you simply can't. It's against the rules. But in America, there are no rules--do what you want when you want."
"well, I'm an American now" as she eats a sandwich in her car.

But I was wrong. It solves four.

Their other problem of course was masculinity. Well, a strong young energetic message is masculine by nature - so it solves their fourth major problem too.

But keep thinking the most powerful party in the most powerful country on earth is being stupidly lost to a bunch of rando extremist upstarts that happen to agree with the power brokers on every single thing except maybe who gets rich and who gets shot first.

I wasn't aware of this, but North Africans refuse to use garbage cans, receptacles or bins. What they do is just throw the trash (any trash) out the window, off their balcony etc. and let it accumulate below. You can't see the grass anymore. Rats run wild enjoying the dirty diaper smorgasbord. And, no one cleans it up. It just festers.

The EU and UK are nothing more than a curiosity at this point, which is why I mentioned the former. They are finished, and rather than spending our energy hoping or assisting them, we should be focusing on the US and a various attempts to do the same here.

This reminds me of a scene from The Patriot.

Susan, the littlest daughter, refuses to speak to Mel Gibson's character. She does, though, tell Heath Ledger - her older brother - how much she hates her dad and hopes he never comes back.

Heath Ledger tells Mel Gibson that 'Susan says she loves you, and misses you, but understands why you can't be here right now.'

Mitch had a hard time saying anything at all during a scheduled press conference. No way he said all that from his 'I'm brain dead, maybe dead dead' hospital bed.

@ScottJenningsKY
I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning, the senior Senator from Kentucky. He’s still recovering in the hospital. We talked for just shy of 20 minutes … about IRAN, UKRAINE, the unfolding situation in MAINE, my visit to the TR Presidential Library, and even a little bit of Senate history. I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.

I just do not fully understand the motivation of so many leftists to being so permissive of illegal immigration.

Posted by: Earl Schlobodowicz at July 07, 2026 01:21 PM (+48wn)

Because ALL commie cocksuckers have the same goal, the total destruction of Western Civilization. And unrestricted illegal immigration inevitably leads to that goal. The commies don't care about building a utopia, that's just the lie they tell moderates to keep them quiet, before they get the chance to shoot those kneeling moderate Kulaks in the back of the neck.

And yes, this is how every leftist commie cocksucker thinks. Including your nice, Birkenstock-wearing neighbor who brings arugula salad to your neighborhood barbeques. Just ask him, he won't bother hiding the fact that he wants to kill people like you.

A Midtown high-rise was dramatically evacuated during the Tuesday morning rush when massive beams in the under-construction building started buckling -- caving in several floors and sending bricks raining down on the street under the crushing strain.

The 38-story commercial building at 235 E. 42nd St. near Second Avenue was cleared around 8:11 a.m. when panicked construction workers spotted two faulty support beams bending and starting to give way on the 21st and 22nd floors, according to the NYPD and FDNY.

The terrifying slow-motion collapse appeared to stem from ongoing construction involving the addition of at least 10 floors to the building, which is being converted from offices to apartments, sources said.

125 Ace, you're misunderstanding the Nigel Farage situation.

He's not resigning in shame or becuase he did something scandal-worthy. He's "resigning" and then immediately running for re-election to the same seat, merely t prove that the scandal i a nothing-burger. He presumes (and he's probably right) that he'll easily win re-election, and with that get a fresh stamp of approval that the public does'tt care about the "scandal,' and he can thus "put it behind him."

Truth is, the scnadal is very weak and ridiculous. He didn[t receive ahy gifts when he was actually in parliament -- he just got some "in-kind support" (transpaprtation, etc.) from some rich dude while Farage was a private citizen, which is noot illegal or scandalous. But because of obtuse election laws, some of the in-kind support happened within a year of Farage later getting elected, so therefore he could be deemed to have "not reported" it. Very weak. He's holding the new election to show the world that the public doesn;t give a hoot about this trivial issue.

The precarious situation prompted surrounding buildings – including a nearby school with roughly 400 children – to be evacuated for fear more of the structure would topple, Mayor Zohran Mamdani told reporters.

“What they have found thus far is that there are structural issues with the building,” he said.

“I would say that beyond that, just for those in the immediate area to follow the instructions of those on the ground, we have seen evacuations not only of the building, but of surrounding buildings, as well as a nearby school. And I believe those actions are appropriate at this time.”

165 Didn't they learn that before Western Civilization all the world was a craphole?

These are the people who literally believe electricity comes from outlets, food comes from grocery stores, and water comes from the faucet. There is no conception of all of the things men (and I do mean men) do to make those things possible, and therefore no mind is paid to what happens when you eliminate all of those men. Things were always as they are now, and they shall be that way forever.

🚨 President Trump is seemingly BEYOND fed up with Europe's BS

"With all the money we spend to help them with Russia.. we don't have to spend ANY money. We could remove ALL of our soldiers out of Europe, because as you probably noticed, Europe is a VERY different place than it was 20 years ago."

"It's MUCH different, and they better be careful with immigration and energy. If they're not careful with those two things, you're not going to have a Europe anymore."

198 Word.

This morning, New York Times columnist Michelle Goldberg concedes she was completely fooled by the hype around Platner:

Last October, when stories about Platner’s tattoo and Reddit posts first broke, I went to Maine to write about him. I tried to convey what I saw: a campaign that was electrifying angry Maine voters. But I deeply regret that, impressed by Platner’s political charisma, I wrote that he was “nothing like the edgelord caricature I encountered online.” If anything, he seems to be significantly worse.

I do not say this lightly: If Platner fooled you, maybe you should find something to do with your life besides writing columns about politics. Because the U.S. political landscape is full of creeps, cretins, con artists, crooks, and cads of every kind, and it always will be. If the media has any useful role to play in our system, it is to look beyond the spin and the campaign-crafted image and to tell the world who these candidates really are, warts and all, so the electorate can make an informed choice.

He would’ve been our Governor during Covid, kept us locked down, and the country would’ve never been the same.

The reason he almost won was b/c deep blue Broward County kept “finding” votes weeks after the election.

The vote fraud was stopped, DeSantis cleaned up our elections, and he won by almost 20% in 2022.

234 174 I have a brother whose wife managed to collapse the house trying for that " open floor plan". I saw what she did and grabbed the family and left. She cut out 3 tripple stacked 2 by 6 supports holding up the rafters across almost a third of the house. I was amazed it hadn't fallen down yet. It took about another month and a nice Nevada windy day.

I told him we want to see him back at work as soon as possible.

I have a buddy that was one of the functional alcoholics. He was drunk all day every day for over 30 years. He would stop at the quick check each morning and grab a couple of 60 ouncers on his way to work. On top of that he popped all sorts of pills whenever he had the cash for them. It finally caught up with him and he had a series of cardiac issues last month. He says he is sober now. Time will tell I guess.
