French President Emmanuel Macron has not outlasted every other EU leader without having a Pelosian cunning streak. Macron knows exactly what he is doing, and undoubtedly USAID/CIA operative Samantha Power is there in the background helping him execute it.
In the first round of the SNAP election, opposition leader Marine Le Pen’s National Rally party has made huge strides in becoming the predominant force in French politics. The National Rally gains around 34% of the seats, the left-wing Alliance party gets 28% of the seats, and Macron’s centrist party will suffer major loses with only 20% of the seats.
The top two candidates will now head to the second round, where Macron -who still has 3 years on his term- will deploy “operation chaos”.
Macron will instruct his centrist seats, who lost, to organize their votes for the far-left socialists, thereby blocking the National Rally party from gaining a working majority. Just like the radical leftists in the USA (Democrats), Macron’s followers will do exactly what they are told to do.
[Remember the Alaska primary?] This two-round approach was the insurance policy Macron had built into his call for the snap election.
The Nationalists will act flummoxed, stunned, jaw-agape, just like good little French Republicans. The French people will wonder what happened just like American conservatives. Wash – Rinse- Repeat.
PARIS — France on Sunday took a step closer to delivering what was once seen as an unthinkable nightmare: a far-right government taking power in Paris for the first time.
Marine Le Pen’s National Rally made big gains in the first round of a snap election that could upend political orthodoxy across Europe and beyond, with implications for markets and global security that will be hard to predict.
According to early estimates by pollsters Ipsos, the far-right National Rally is on course to win 34 percent of Sunday’s vote while French President Emmanuel Macron’s centrist alliance suffered staggering losses, coming third with 20.3 percent of vote. The left-wing alliance made a strong showing with 28.1 percent of the vote.
“The French people have shown that they want to draw a line under seven years of [Macron’s] disdainful rule,” said Le Pen, speaking at a party event in the Eastern French town of Hénin-Beaumont. “We haven’t won yet, the second round will be crucial … we need an absolute majority so that Jordan Bardella, in eight days, can be appointed prime minister by Emmanuel Macron,” she added.
According to early projections based on exit polls, Le Pen’s party is expected to get 230-280 seats in the 577-seat national assembly, the left wing alliance 125-165 seats and Macron’s coalition 70-100.
Seat projections however are conjectural at this stage and dependent on political decisions taken in the coming days ahead of the second round of voting on July 7. Macron himself is due to stay in power until the end of his mandate in 2027, regardless of the outcome of this assembly election. (read more)
The two-round election is similar to the “ranked choice” approach in Alaska. Seat projections are estimates, because the voters for the losing centrist candidates now will have a choice between the far-left and far-right. Macron will cut deals with the socialists and instruct his team to vote left.
The far-right will stomp their feet like Republicans in Congress. The National Rally party will demand reform like Republicans in Congress, and in the end, they will generally support the collective globalist goals of the Macron regime. Again, just like Republicans in Congress.
Watch.
There are billions at stake.
Macron isn’t stupid.
It’s all a game and voters fall for it all the time!
As Sundance always states “trillions are at stake”. The west needs Ukraine for its minerals, and soil. Anyone on the “right” usurps that.
Go out and plant a garden, because BRICS cannot be stopped. We’re about to become third world because our leaders are greedy, and evil.
Putin is outsmarting those stupid Western Elites. No wonder they want to start a war with him. The problem the EU Elites have is that the Russian people will willingly die to protect the Motherland, the EU Elites do not have enough of their WOK people willing to do that. And the EU and the USA are burning through cash helping a losing cause in Ukraine.
Sadly, I agree with you.
“Analysts” karp about the Russians setting up a grain exchange market while a 21st century Holodomor is not so covertly being waged in the form 1) elimination of energy and resources for food production and 2) deliberate destruction of food facilities (all those industrial fires) with whatever variant of GOF in chickens being used as an excuse to wipe out chicken populations.
The commodities exchange is already up and running. I read somewhere that they have settled on 1 gram of gold per barrel of oil, and are trying to figure out grain bushels per barrel of oil. Real tangible assets, not fiat printed crap that makes beggars kings! Nations who trade within BRICS will be able to bring their strengths to get what they need instead of being indebted to the IMF/BIS/Dollar, and having their countries wealth stripped bare! Just look at how wealthy Africa should be!
Africa is poor because the leaders of the African Countries are poor leaders. Venezuela has more oil than any other country, it was in the top 5 richest. Socialists took over and the wealth disappears into the pockets of corrupt leaders. Argentina was very wealthy and the socialist Peronists beggared the country. It is not the fiat currency nor the currency backed by commodities. No currency can stand against the corruption of socialists or Communists.
Only fools would put wealth in the socialist countries of Brazil, Russia, China, South Africa. When India looks around the room for the sucker in BRICS, I wonder who they think the sucker is?
Neither socialists nor communists invented MMT. Wealth also cannot stand when crony phony capitalists jigger the currency to enable personal theft of national wealth.
Regardless what Mosler calls himself, he is a socialist. Deficits do not matter? Apply that to your own situation. A country that imports more than it exports will run out of fools to take their worthless “magic monetary theory” money. Sometimes very rich people do not understand economics. To them money seems to grow on trees.
There’s a big difference between exploiting the fatted cow and picking through its bones.
That dumb-ass Macron still thinks he has the fatted cow to feast on.
“Macron isn’t stupid.”
But the French people may not be stupid either.
Having seen this game before, le proletariat may be not ready to continue to be invaded and raped.
This is *unlike* Alaska ranked-choice because the voters don’t have to make their second choice known yet. They can watch the scheme play out and then act.
That said, of course this is exactly how the Macron team will need to push it. They can’t afford to lose more EUrocracy now with Orban’s term in play.
I’m not sure I understand what you are saying.
Are you saying that in Alaska with its ranked choice system, that the voters are ‘locked in’ and can’t change their minds or their vote is known in the second round before and election is even held?
And if so, are there sources for that?
“In Alaska, under ranked voting, ballots are counted in rounds: A candidate can win outright during the first round of counting if they receive more than 50% of the vote. If no one hits that threshold, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated. Voters who chose that candidate as their top pick have their votes count for their next choice. Rounds continue until two candidates remain, and then whoever has the most votes wins.”
More Math, Easier Cheating.
Actually Dems’ ranked voting is a bet that there are more indies, Socialists, Greens, Moderates, Progressives etc that will eventually choose Democrat than Libertarians, Alaska Independence, Constitutionalists and indies that will vote Republican in various races.
That is exactly why they did it. Here in Nevada they have to put Ranked Choice on the ballot 2 elections in a row. If it passes twice then they change the NV Constitution and put in RC. That way the Legislature does not get their hands dirty.
So far RC has passed once. Now we get to vote on it again. Majority Rules.
Don’t tell me we live in a Republic when, in my state, they just put it on the ballot and let the majority pick even if it is disgusting and wrong. That way no one can get mad at a “representative” and vote them out. It is Majority Rules.
Ranked choice, skank choice voting needs to be excised from the body politic, or, it will leech like a parasite and kill the host.
We have ranked choice voting in Maine and it is horrible. Most people don’t understand how it works and there is plenty of opportunity for fraud.
While it is too late for 2024, it would be a reasonable goal for Maine patriots to overturn rank choice balloting as a referendum for 2026.
It’s hard to get people to vote once never mind three times for the same election.
…and Three times the opportunity for ballot fraud!
I am an Alaskan.
I was a voter in this particular election.
The strategy is simple, it splits the vote. And it worked.
It will always favor the centrist.
We are doing away with this system in the upcoming election.
It was sold to us by the establishment, and it was a costly lesson.
I never bit on it, I ran the numbers and war-gamed it.
It allows some people to vote three times, others only once. That’s an Equal Protection violation.
One Man, One Vote.
It’s called Rank Choice voting and it’s coming to the U.S. after they steal the 2024 elections
I understand Sundance’s point, though with ranked choice voting, there is no second round, as far as I understand, though, in effect, the 2nd round is built into the first round voting with the ranked choice.
In France today, some candidates (Le Pen and others) won an outright majority of their district. There is no second round vote. It is in the actual second round that things could be fungible, coupled with whatever theatrics are pending thanks to USAID Nazis and their allies in the French Deep State.
At any rate, whatever nuances, parliamentarian multiple round votes and ranked choice can drag out the completion of an election. As of today, it is not precisely sure how many seats each party actually won.
Ranked choice voting has been adopted in Maine, which explains why a once historically conservative state would have such current out and out Communist rule.
In France there are multiple rounds of voting
In Ranked Choice there is only one round of voting but multiple rounds of counting until they get a result.
Right.
The “vote” is cast once, filling out the entire form.
The “counting” rounds go on and on and on until the regime-designated “candidate” finally gets enough “votes”.
With a lot of arcane rules-n-procedures-n-stuff to distract, confuse, and sound officius.
Hope the French people will not go along this time, choosing instead to do what they do best, be contradictory.

Pepe!
Ever notice when reporting it is always “the far right” or “the extreme right” yet how often do we hear or read “the far left” or “the extreme left” in their descriptions? Kinda tells me right away the slant of the presentation.
For Eric Hoffer, the longshore man, late philosopher, the definition of a conservative is someone who “wants to keep something”, while a liberal he defined as “someone who wants something” suggesting an individual is both a conservative and a liberal…it all depends on the subject matter.
Far out! Bon soir mes amis!
Depends on who is doing the reporting.
As far a description of a conservative, Sundance has done an excellent job of describing what a conservative is.
It can be found in the menu section.
…and in this case, it is the Politico “journalist” who also equates “far-right” with “unthinkable nightmare.” Barf.
It is the same in all movies. It is always the Far Right that is talked about, never the Far Left.
That is because the far left controls the movie industry.
Where is Napoleon or Franco when you need one of them?
Will one be on the horizon?
Only time and Providence will answer.
The leftist, “revolutionary” forces must be eliminated from power and/or influence.
There is no other way.
No quarter! None should be asked.
For all the marbles.
WHile you are out looking for great French historical figures, please resurrect Charles Martel.
Truly my kind of Franc.
Don’t forget his son and grandson…. Pepin The Short and Charlemagne.
In my old country, we sort of owe them a huge debt of gratitude for their actions!
Funny thing about Franco.
I was surprised to see that people in the old country actually liked the old Caudillo.
Lower taxes, less regulations and more economic freedom.
It was interesting to find Catalans who liked Franco, but it was the working class people, petit bourgeois, working for a living, not the socialist aristocrats or the people on the take.
As if on cue…..
That’s not going to persuade “centrists” to vote for Macron next week…
When this happens in the USA later this year, people need to be prepared to shoot back.
I was just thinking along the same lines.
Coming to America. The degree will be how soon and intensity depending on who ‘officially’ wins the election.
Somebody needs to spray some orange paint on that, to Stop Oil!
Shop owners started boarding up right away. They knew it was coming.
This is all they have, destroy, burn, yell, and kill. Normal people cannot sustain this height of sensory overload day after day unless they are psychotic or schizophrenic.
And, magically, they continue to get away with it. No push back.
It is the ideology of death. Death of nations, of people, of babies, of religion, decency, and anything else worth living for.
Of course they destroy things when they don’t get their way.
As Harvey Korman said in Blazing Saddles “Their such children!”
We need more people speaking the simple truth.
I heard someone talking about the January 6th insurrection. I somehow broke that spell by asking them to explain exactly how this would have managed to overthrow the government? They couldn’t and began wonder why they made the claim in the first place.
Ou sonts les salopes du contra insurgence Samantha Powers et Victoria Nuland?
MFGA!
MFGFO !
Make France Great For Once!
well, it’s been a few centuries…
Dunno why but that almost seems like an acronym for a curse word expression.
Enfin!
I am hopeful, Maquis.
So very out of fashion such is these days.
Or so many strive to assert.
Even in the face of it all…
Fabriquer France Renouvelle!
Aide moi, Maquis!
Tu l’as, mon mec!
Do you hear the people sing? Singing the songs of angry men.
Tremblez, tyrans et vous perfides
L’opprobre de tous les partis,
Tremblez ! vos projets parricides
Vont enfin recevoir leurs prix ! (bis)
Tout est soldat pour vous combattre,
S’ils tombent, nos jeunes héros,
La terre en produit de nouveaux,
Contre vous tout prêts à se battre !
Allons enfants de la Patrie,
formez vos battaillons,
contrenu de la tiranie,
le jour de gloire est arrivé.
Pity that the French majority is for population substitution, global government, and War against Orthodox Christians. Yet Marine le Pen is already elected deputy.
What? One-day voting?
Ranked-choice voting will destroy America. Repeal of ranked-choice made the ballot in Alaska. Hopefully, Lisa Murkowski will be replaced in 2028, but I suspect she will become an independent and caucus with Democrats before then. I don’t really care much about the Europeans.
*sigh*
Well bless his heart!
Her health has reportedly been kind of shaky! Hell she may croak before 2028!🤔
The French Left is gonna have a hard time deploying their Fascist Antifa troops in Paris, what with the Olympics coming up, but it’s already started in Germany.
They’re sending them out to attack right wing Alternative for Germany (AfD).
They’ll get around to it in France, once the Olympics is over.
….” Thousands of violent far-left “Anti” Fascists stormed the streets of the western German city of Essen this weekend, trying to “shut down” the party convention of the AfD (Alternative for Germany). Politicians and delegates were attacked and hunted throughout the city, many had to be escorted by riot police to the Grugahalle center. One officer is in critical condition after being kicked in the head while on the ground.”….
https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2024/06/germany-violent-antifa-street-militia-try-shut-down/
What makes you think they won’t try to stop the Olympics? Have enough riots in Paris and Countries may decide to keep their athlete’s home.
ANTIFA is extremely violent, and begs the question, why are they not classed as a global terrorist organization?
They are not a “global terrorist organization”. They are the Globalist’s terror organization.
I guess the people in France have finally noticed that something is really wrong in their country
Mass Demonstrations and Riots by Far-Left Groups alongside Islamists are ongoing tonight in the French Capital of Paris as well as several other Cities around the Country, in Response to today’s Election Results which saw the Right-Wing Populist Party, National Rally led by Marine Le Pen make Major Gains in the French Parliament. Notice how out all of the Flags being waved by these Demonstrators, none are the French Flag.
https://x.com/sentdefender/status/1807544584462864749
And there is the ‘tell.’
The “Left” using the Islamists. Why? Because they are a tiny, insignificant, weak minority that can only succeed by subterfuge of any means.
I’m not so sure. I think the Islamists like to be used until they can take over with ever-growing numbers.
Thanks. You’re making my point.
Ah, here is when they mention “Far Left” as opposed to just the “Left” or “Centrist Left” (who are really, really nice people///). But anyone to the right of “Centrist Left” is far right or extreme far right.
Sooo disappointing…
But expected, BFAW.
It would be a real blessing if you were wrong.
Voting any more almost everywhere is like a fixed card game where the dealer always wins . Players play trying to win but can’t or they are led to believe they can win by being duped.
Its like electionopoly where the outcome depends on the roll of the dice.
That’s when tables get turned over and all the concealed guns in the room come out.
I can’t understand their elections, just, please, let me know when Macron is gone.
Macron is gay and his “wife” was born a male.
Convince me otherwise.
Zelensky and Macron finally tied the knot?? How cute! Who wore the wedding gown??
He probably borrowed Jean-Michel Trogneux’s gown
Seems to be all the rage in once otherwise western republics.
Like Obama?
Centrists are flakes. If the right wins big, the center left might vote for macron, but the center right might not. Centrists’ defining political characteristic is moving whichever way the wind is blowing and then claiming the moral high ground of being on the winning team.
There are a lot of Lefties who are angry about the wars.
The wind is not blowing in Macron’s direction.
If 60% of France votes “anyone but Macron”, that becomes a powerful rallying cry.
The best bet is always the status quo. Macron remains.
Losing big now shifts the Overton Window. Elections that break the status quo happen when the Overton Window shifts too much.
Loss of legitimacy is frequently a cause of big shifts.

Operation Chaos, as Rush Limbaugh called it, had Republicans voting for Hillary to prolong the Democrat primary. I remember it well.
It didn’t change the outcome, but it was entertaining to watch.
Le Pen just seems weak, compared to the dumpster fire France is turning into
Not quite her father’s daughter.
“BELEM, Brazil, March 26 (Reuters) – Brazil and France on Tuesday launched an investment program to protect the Brazilian and Guyanese Amazon rainforest involving 1 billion euros ($1.1 billion) in private and public funds over the next four years.
The announcement was made during French President Emmanuel Macron’s three-day visit to the South American country, where he landed on Tuesday in Belem, near the mouth of the Amazon, and was met by Brazil’s President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva.
“Gathered in Belem, in the heart of the Amazon, we, Brazil and France, Amazonian countries, have decided to join forces to promote an international roadmap for protection of tropical forests,” they said in a joint statement.
Their pledge to work together to stop deforestation in the Amazon by 2030 to contribute to slowing global warming comes two years before Brazil hosts the COP30 climate negotiations talks in Belen in 2025″

Honeymoon photos.
Get le room, pervs.
They are on the Titanic ..🌊
They’re on Viagra.
It does appear that Macron is wearing makeup for that photoshoot.
France is an Amazonian country? When did they move?
French Guiana is an overseas department of France. It shares a border with Brazil and some portion of the Amazon basin. It’s a stretch but then so is everything on the left.
I believe they are talking about the French Guiana.
So Brazil got some money, and Macron put a place mat on the BRICS table.
So the globalist solution in Brazil is to preserve and protect the rainforest.
While in the USA, the solution is to cut down the forests and bury the trees.
Both in the name of saving the earth by reducing CO2 emissions.
Makes sense ….
We’ll see how the winds blow for Macron this time around.
People are mad… I was there ( Western Europe ) and the folks are fed up with taxes and regulations. The EU is perceived as an error.
Given the vote for the EU parliament, this may be outside of Macron’s political control.
Remember, this is not a vote about French national politics but about the EU.
Things would have been somewhat fine if the Euroweenies would have stopped at the Common Market.
Orban ascends to the EU Presidency tomorrow.
UK elections on Wednesday.
Round 2 next week in France.
Europe is going through the ringer.
The corrupt always have different triggers built into the system, that allows them to maintain power and/or control. Corruption is a worldwide epidemic.
“SHOOT THE MOON!!”-“Harry”- “Up In Smoke”..
Just like Spain’s last election….
Looking at the results more closely, RN did better than I initially thought. It didn’t seem that way at first, because at the national level it did a bit less well than what polls predicted, but it seems that it’s because urban voters mobilized. In rural areas it’s a RN tsunami.

One can hide so much evil in cities.
If you have walked through the streets of Paris recently you would know France as it was once known has long been lost.
(Definitely no striped shirts and baguettes anywhere to be seen)
It does not really matter if the turd flushes down the drain circling left or right.
France has become a big turd in Europe. They are vying with Germany to be the top turd of Europe, though Germany is making some good comeback moves. The only concern with leadership of these countries is how they can erase themselves as quickly as possible from world relevance and the map.
Patriot: I noticed the serious decline of Paris back in the summer of 2015, when the Marianne statue in Place de la République was a mess of graffiti. I’ve have visited Paris many times since my first visit, as a kid, in 1970.
Scat Eye for the steer guy.
When is everyone on the right going to realize that elections are not going to change anything.
Change will only come once the right figures this out .
I am giving it to November 5, 2024.
I’ve been saying this for a long time here, and only a very few acknowledge it. Those with their heads in the sand attack me for speaking the truth.
Re “The French people will wonder what happened just like American conservatives.”
Sad but true. I’m constantly amazed at just how gullible some conservatives are.
Like the ones who think “voting hard” in 2024 is somehow different than voting in 2020?
The walls are closing in. LOL
Puke, barf, hurl the world is vomiting this toxic bile up and out. Assez! Basta! Enough!
That’s not how it is taken in France. Everyone there knows about the system and handles it the way it is supposed to be there. There’s no chaos in this. It’s how the French constitution is built.
Which one?
The French change constitutions almost as often as the Italians have a new government.
Their libraries keep their constitution in the periodicals section.
Ours is in the fiction section!
Good call. The analogy to ranked-choice voting in Alaska hammers the point home.
One wonders when Micron instead unintentionally triggers Operations Bastille, Versailles and Varennes…
I heard Versailles is on the market, rough times.
The CIA needs to be annihilated. They are the evil force in the world.
America First.
Langley.
Donc le monde.
Ya can’t vote out what was never voted in! We don’t have enough people in the Legislature to defund these entities!
The engineers of 1789 desired above all to see the institution of Republics.
So well practiced at infiltration and manipulation, nothing suits them better.
The Commune de Paris may as well have endured for all the true freedom the French really have to lead themselves.
we are to stupid and to cowardly to do anything but cry. thats the way it is. thats the way it will stay. so wtf ever we say and think makes no difference.
Somebody needs a hug!
“The National Rally gains around 34% of the seats, the left-wing Alliance party gets 28% of the seats, and Macron’s centrist party will suffer major loses with only 20% of the seats.” – Sorry, Sundance, but these percentages are of votes not of seats. The seat allocation is done riding by riding, most of it after the 2nd round, which will take place next Sunday. For now, RN got 38 seats and will fight for another 400, with a good chance to get 250 of them.
About those “RUSSIAN SANCTIONS” (a GIFT TO PUTIN from the West)…. very interesting video, Scott Ritter informs:
I believe we have reached the point where the governed just don’t care what the politicians and bureaucrats say. I predict mass disobedience from citizens at large, particularly in France.
Just choose not to comply and don’t be bullied by the name callers.
When will people wake the F up? It’s “the bad guys” who deploy the political violence.
The KKK was exclusively Democrat. Antifa is exclusively Democrat. “regular voters” sort of know but people need to SPEAK this truth.
I have to say Sundance’s conclusion as to the ending of this French drama is spot on. I’ll bet the State Department will be working feverishly this next week so the French “do the right thing”.
I watched France 24 for a while today.
The entire panel of commentators were just horrible…
The greatest threat to France is the Right.
And they just never quit saying that.
It is as if they had no regard at all for the election at all.
And they were dead-set on painting all the right-wing populists as pure evil.
Macron isn’t stupid.
But he is nasty, brutish, and short.
And gay.
People in this country should listen to Jovon Pulitzer and his take on why nothing was done about the proof of election fraud in this country.
He also said not one thing has been corrected or been done to correct all the problems in our election system and we will be seeing the same results in 2024 no matter how many more millions votes PDJT gets.

This time you were wrong. The Nationalists KILLED it!!!
The way I see it, this is where we, the American people, are at right now.
The democrats have stated that if they gain, (Nov election), a majority in congress and keep the majority in the senate, they will not certify the election. Even if Trump wins in a landslide, they wont certify him. What do we do then? A Constitutional Convention, Red states succeed,
Ranked choice works for the Dems because there really is no “center”. There is right of center, left of center, and extreme far left. The left of center will always choose extreme far left as their 2nd choice. So the left will always win.
Maybe. But the French have a tradition of taking it to the streets and using blunt force to push change. I’m not convinced they will be lulled into complacency this time.
Yeah that’s a very old trick in french politic. Kept the ‘far right’ out of power since the 80’s with the two-round system. It still doesn’t make sense for Macron to do what he did. He had a shaky but real legislative majority. At best now his party will shrink and the far left and far right will gain seats. It’s chaos for chaos sake!
