FREE MARINE LE PEN!

Reverse this monstrous criminal conviction against the French oppositional party Rassemblement National! Restore free elections in France!
After the first major electoral success of the oppositional party Rassemblement National (RN), which has been defamed and discriminated against for decades and has even been cut off from standard bank loans, the Tribunal de Grande Instance in Paris (comparable to a county court in Germany) has now, on March 31, 2025, passed a scandalous judgement against this party, which criminalises it in an unprecedented manner and, if it is not lifted, means nothing less than the end of free elections in our neighbouring country:
Twenty-four RN members and employees received prison sentences, many amounting to several years, fines and years of ineligibility (withdrawal of the passive right to vote), including Marine Le Pen herself, who was sentenced to four years’ imprisonment, a fine of € 100,000 and ineligibility for five years. Additionally, the party itself was given a two-million-euro fine. And finally, those convicted must pay three-and-a-half million euros in "compensation" to the European Parliament.
To sum up: two dozen prison sentences, ruinous new debts of more than five million euros (!) and the exclusion of leading party representatives from the elections are intended to force the very pariah status on the Rassemblement National, which had been brought about by its marginalisation by the relentless smears of the media and the antidemocratic French majority voting system which they had just, for the first time, managed to break away from by means of decades of perseverance against the (near-) universally hated Macron and the oh-so-left-wing Mélenchon, who joined forces with him against the RN, and thereby render the votes of more than ten million people who had voted for the RN last summer null and void!
As if that were not already enough, the court, on its own authority (a so-called "discretionary decision"!), robbed Marine Le Pen of any effective legal redress, because it had also ordered the immediate enforcement of her ineligibility that had been imposed as part of the conviction, meaning that she is not permitted to take part either in the next presidential elections (2027) or the parliamentary elections (2029)! This means that the appeal she had lodged against this is without suspensory effect and she is not allowed to stand for election, even though the unjust first-instance decision is not legally binding and the presumption of innocence is still valid in her case. Since Marine Le Pen is well in front in all opinion polls for the next presidential elections, that means nothing less that a court having the impudence to ban the people from electing Marine Le Pen as the next President of France, i.e. abolishing free presidential elections in France!
The path of Romania towards dictatorship, where arbitrary actions by the judicial system have also led to the people being banned from electing first Diana Șoșoacă, then Călin Georgescu as State President, is now also being followed by France:
The – as President Trump fittingly put it - "witch hunt against Marine Le Pen", who is now being cursed and having insults spewed at her along the lines of “seven-figure fraudster” by the unison press and television media of the EU/NATO states consists in a criminal proceeding which has been dragged out over ten years and more (the alleged events nearly all took place more than ten years ago, some of them more than twenty!) with the following arbitrary construct:
The horrendous sentences handed out to Rassemblement National were imposed solely because it had made use of some of the parliamentary assistants of its MEPs in Paris (or other French cities) instead of in Brussels or Strasbourg and this use was broader in thematic terms than strictly referring to the EU agenda, but always exclusively for political party work and always with a full complement of working hours. That’s all. Not one cent of the salaries these assistants received from the EU budget was used for private purposes, not a single working hour less performed than paid for with these salaries. In these proceedings, which had been ongoing against her for more than ten years (!) under this pretext, Marine Le Pen had repeatedly pointed out that the EU parliamentary assistants were only able to be involved effectively in the political opinion formation of the people in this way – which is, for example, the foremost responsibility of a political party under German law (Art. 21). Because on the one hand, the RN MEPs had been treated like lepers by the rest of the MEPs representing the cartel parties for decades (the uniparty of SPD/CDU/Greens and their equivalents in other EU countries) and by means of a cordon sanitaire (a “firewall”, a propaganda word for morons used in Germany for the unjust treatment of the AfD) systematically kept away from committee work and even largely the right to speak, i.e. condemned to inactivity. On the other hand, because of the undemocratic set-up of the EU, its parliament does not have that much to say to start with (it has neither the right of legislative initiative nor the right to nominate the “EU government”, the Commission, i.e. neither of the two core rights of any genuine parliament), and for this reason effective European policy can only be executed via the strengthening of national parliaments and the corresponding national government participation, in other words, exactly what Le Pen’s party used its EU parliamentary assistants for, and they, of course, also accompanied the MEPs on their trips to the EU parliamentary meetings in Brussels and Strasbourg and also did the work necessary for this. So the idea of these being “fictitious employment contracts” is a lie.
This method of employing EU parliamentary assistants was also declared openly by the Rassemblement National in every case (even in its official organigram!) and was generally known, and it is also in keeping with the practice that has been widespread among other members and parties in the EU parliament for a long time and which has hardly ever been of any interest to the EU Bureau of Parliament in other instances. In the case of the RN, too, it slyly allowed this working method to continue for ten years with open eyes, but then suddenly, on the orders of the SPD functionary Martin Schulz, who was President of the European Parliament at the time, demanded massive return payments going back nearly ten years (!) from 2014. And then, only another ten years later (!), did the French judiciary press charges for alleged “misappropriation of funds by state officials" (Art. 432-15 Code pénal). Now in French criminal law, “state officials” can, of course, only mean French state officials, and with this additional arbitrary act of suddenly extending this punishability to encompass the officials of international organisations such as the Universal Postal Union or, as in this case, the EU, the nulla poena sine lege principle was also violated on account of its unpredictable novelty. And so, now, Marine Le Pen and her 23 convicted companions are being treated as if they were serious criminals who lined their pockets with millions, and handed out dishonouring and livelihood-destroying prison sentences and astronomical fines and exclusion from public life!
Reverse this draconian sentence against Marine Le Pen and all the other convicted representatives of the Rassemblement National! Restore free elections in France!
We adopt the words of Hungarian Prime Minister Victor Orbán as posted on "X":
Je suis Marine Le Pen
and also the words of American president Donald J. Trump, who wrote on "Truth Social" about Marine Le Pen on 4 April, 2025: It is the same 'playbook' that was used against me (...) I don't know Marine Le Pen, but do appreciate how hard she worked for so many years. She suffered losses, but kept on going, and now, just before what would be a Big Victory, they get her on a minor charge that she probably knew nothing about – Sounds like a 'bookkeeping' error to me. It is all so bad for France, and the Great French People, no matter what side they are on. FREE MARINE LE PEN!

Politically Motivated Disgraceful Verdict Against Marine Le Pen – Yet the “Quality” Media Are Howling
On July 7, 2026, the appellate court handed down its ruling against Marine Le Pen and, shamefully, upheld the first-instance criminal verdict despite some mitigating factors. As a reminder: In April 2025, Marine Le Pen, along with 23 other members of the Rassemblement National (RN), had been sentenced to exorbitant, livelihood-destroying prison terms and fines; above all, however, she was stripped of her right to stand for election for five years, thereby simultaneously the French people were deprived of their right to free elections. Yet the RN had by no means, as the “quality” media claim, “misappropriated EU tax money,” but rather employed its European Parliament assistants in exactly the same way as numerous other MEPs do – albeit without being harassed for it. (The whole rigged infamous farce can be read about in the main article above.
The verdict against Marine Le Pen is now as follows: three years in prison, two of which are suspended and one to be served with an electronic ankle monitor (the first-instance ruling was four years in prison), a €100,000 fine, and ineligibility for 45 months, 30 months of which are suspended (the first-instance ruling was five years). However, since the first-instance ruling regarding the disqualification from holding office was enforced immediately, the 15 months of ineligibility has already elapsed, and Marine Le Pen can run as a candidate in the next presidential election in 2027 (albeit possibly with a humiliating electronic ankle monitor that severely restricts her freedom of movement and thus her ability to campaign).
Following the ruling, Marine Le Pen stated that this would restore the freedom to vote to French voters. However, the main reason for this ruling appears to be that, despite her criminal conviction in the first instance, Marine Le Pen’s approval ratings among the public hardly declined, and she continued to lead her rivals in the polls as a presidential candidate. The political background – the abolition of free elections, as recently seen in Romania – would have been too obvious. Thus, the appellate court’s ruling – which remains arbitrary, life-destroying, and politically motivated never the less – was intended to shroud the tip of the iceberg in clouds, but nothing more. After the first-instance ruling, Marine Le Pen had stated that she would not run for office while wearing an electronic ankle monitor. However, this condition was upheld in the appellate ruling. Yet immediately after the verdict was handed down on July 7, 2026, Marine Le Pen declared that she would now, after all, stand as a presidential candidate – a move that sent the mainstream media into a frenzy, as they had been banking on the RN’s replacement candidate, Jordan Bardella, since he, a spruced up “son-in-law” type, on the one hand, does not have the same roots in the French population as the political veteran Le Pen, and on the other hand, also lacks her (albeit, regrettably, often incomplete) abilities (unlike Le Pen, he lacks the “license to drive political heavy-duty lorries,” as Le Figaro recently fantasized – whatever that may mean). With Bardella, there was a reasonable prospect that either no RN representative would become president or that the RN platform would be watered down over time. In this respect, one can only hope that Marine Le Pen will indeed run as a presidential candidate.
The chaste state whore taz (July 8, 2026, the only German newspaper directly funded by taxpayer money) spewed venom and bile: “She [Marine Le Pen] doesn’t give a damn about morality,” (the taz, the paper for massacres against Serbs, killing Russians, and – morality...) and laments that the courts are not “protecting the republic from a person who handles public funds so recklessly and criminally.” Well, anyone who doesn’t condemn the financial coup by Merz & Co. – which will cost German taxpayers hundreds of billions of euros in real terms over the coming decades – and at the same time holds out their hands for money, should better keep their filthy mouth shut when it comes to fabricated “embezzlement” charges.
The appellate ruling, too, remains a political, dishonoring unjust verdict!
