Marine LePen, who might be described as the Donald Trump of France*, has just been convicted of embezzlement, along with members of her party, National Rally RN. She was sentenced today, and it seems that French courts are a little more serious about consequences** than we are: a fine of 100,000 Euros (and 4.1M Euros for the party), house arrest for four years, and...
...she cannot run for office for five years, starting now.
Think of that when you eat your Freedom Fries.
* - She even ran for President, and did not win a majority, three times. Spooky!
** - By the way, if there is any doubt about the Western right wing being in bed with the Russians, the Kremlin has "condemned" the decision and Vladimir Putin has "deplored" it.
