More “protests” that look like riots broke out today in several regions throughout Europe as the socialists and communists take advantage of the street antagonisms and looting opportunists.
Areas throughout France, Albania, Spain and Italy are seeing some of the most consequential street battles with police and rioters. CBS reported a few hours ago that more than 1,000 people have been arrested in France so far today.
FRANCE – Nearly 1,000 people were arrested in nationwide protests in France, Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez said Saturday, after demonstrations over the high cost of living and the country’s education system earlier in the day remained largely peaceful.
Nuñez said the number of arrests is expected to rise significantly. He said marches “passed off well” in cities, but police officers found themselves confronted with “an extremely elevated level of violence” from “ultra-left” groups later in the day. Nuñez said some shops and businesses had been looted, but “the scale was far smaller” than a week earlier, when some 3,000 businesses were damaged or looted.
He said police acted more rapidly and conducted more pre-demonstration checks. Businesses and shopping centers had also been better protected. Earlier Saturday, the interior minister said police had confiscated weapons including metal balls, lead pellets, fireworks, slingshots, steel balls, improvised weapons, a katana and airsoft weapons, he said.
The French Interior Ministry said about 410,000 people participated in about 298 protests around the country. Union organizers from the General Confederation of Labor put the number at around 800,000. An explanation for the discrepancy was not immediately available. (read more)

What bugs me the most about this stuff is how the media TOTALLY avoids even trying to figure out who is organizing and funding this.
There is nothing spontaneous about any of it.
“There is nothing spontaneous about any of it.”
EXACTLY.
Media here in America wait, with anticipation, for the stuff over there to start HERE.
They will say the same stuff this time they said last time.
Fire everywhere with the anchors saying “mostly peaceful” demonstrations.
Communists!
Nice one, Betsy.
I’m tasting prominent smoky notes, in this bold new French offering.
Hoping it’s not corked 😎
Nominal corkage fee.
😉 👍🏻
Nope. Stuffed with a rag, which gives a lovely earthy mouth feel. Plus, such an on trend presentation.
C’est magnigique!
Magnifique!
Ain’t assimilation grand??
Flambe Molotov!
Are those hints of pepper and petroleum too?
Mais oui! Plus, a rather bold envelope of body odor. So inventive!
Plus, the cute little fuse poking out. A fresh take on the cocktail umbrella…
It pairs well with spicy North African food.
Cute! The Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée must be upheld!
EU Law of course…harsh penalties for infractions.
So it’s not a Grand Cru riot? 😎
That is perfect, Betsy!!
Curfews stringently enforced notwithstanding, I saved it for a time which we all knew was coming.
You won the internet today with this. I can go to bed now. lol
The media is just as much the enemy of freedom, so of course they won’t do their jobs.
Soros, Obama, EU themselves.
Musk should have Grok ID it and publish it. If the media didn’t acknowledge it, the public will eventually.
Blue sky is a train wreck because the left doesn’t know how to drive safely. X is still the place.
The same person handing their talking points is the same person organizing the news event. They know who is writing the check for both.
I don’t know why the police don’t use SKUNK SPRAY! It can be shot from fire hoses from tanks mounted on trucks. And they could put dye in it. Pretty effective.
Kid gloves never work and there is but one way to deal with this garbage and it’s called deadly force
Actually what should happen is every piece of garbage arrested should be immediately sent to the front in Ukraine since the same people are behind both disasters
100%^^^
Because they don’t want to be effective.
Exactly. A show of force. And the vibrant newcomers know it.
They could do many things…
If they truly wanted to.
After all, the world’s most famous skunk IS French 🙂
Eau de Pepe Le Pew! A new exciting fragrance created especially for communists!
LOL, love it!
Mon cheri!
That would stink up the whole city for weeks. Not fair to the residents and business owners.
Doesn’t the marijuana that the protesters smoke already stink up the city? I have users on both sides of my house and actually have to close my windows.
But you’re right. It would stink for sure.
Nope, live ammo is the only way to stop this stuff. Not pretty effective, VERY effective.
These riots are coming to a blue zoo near you if you live in or around a city.
Well, there’s that military weapon that causes terrible heat (???) – one of which I’ve read has been deployed to our Southern border, I guess in anticipation of that huge horde marching its way up.
That brings us to the definition of perfume, another French creation.
Read an article on another site today talking about scared Parisians buying up self-defense weapons.
Buried in the fifth or sixth paragraph halfway down the page it said guns and other lethal weapon weapons are strictly for forbidden.
Good luck with those spray repellent devices!
Buy guns now because the Left wants to disarm us. Never let it happen here.
Useful idiot is going to find out real quick when the head choppers inevitably betray their allies of convenience.
Traitors are always the first to go, makes perfect sense.
No shortage of useful idiots….
Looks like Zalinskyy.
Does the eu have a modeling studio?
No brains left in their heads
Or as Don Henley once said:
“We’re being treated to the wisdom
Of some puffed up little fart
Doing exactly what I used to do
Pretensions to anarchy and art
He speaks the language of a warrior
He mounts his misinformed attack
He wears the clothes of a dissenter
But there’s a logo on his back”
This can’t be coordinated; not in a million years. No way….
Sarcasm. Sarcasm, folks.
lol. First comment predictably blames…. Russia!!!
Not President Trump???? 🤔
Well, there’s a change.
“russian hybrid warfare to destabilise Europe”
Either the stupid is that thick or he’s a fellow commie.
The odd thing is that the Soviet Union was communist and now Russia and the former members of the Soviet Union are not, unless I misunderstand something.
Weird….
My working hypothesis is that the surviving Bolsheviks (Vicky Nuland and her ilk) are seeking their revenge against the surviving Stalinists (of which Putin is one) to retake their motherland and remake it into their original Communist utopia. And then exploit the riches to further their global ends of a Unified Global Tyranny under their control. (Insert SDs famous pic of the walled city with the small settlement outside).
I saw that.
Moron.
Oh, so it’s “Rioters” now, and not “Students” is it??
Once upon a time, I too studied Kant and played a cello. My mother shelled out a hard-earned five bucks a week for those music lessons. I also tutored middle-aged students. Neither they nor I — and certainly not my Mom — ever rampaged through city streets in protest of some perceived lack. The only time we converged in the streets was to march in the Fourth of July parade behind the Philadelphia Mummers:)
And I digress. He’s protesting over the lack of philosophy courses? Seems like he’s got Marx and Engels down pat.
Parody I’m sure, Fionnagh. “Norman lineage”??
Wouldn’t surprise me to learn the author is a Brit…11/10 👍🏻
…The brightest and the best, wouldn’t you say?
I can’t study Kant…
…but there’s always room for cello!
Always….
Feral Amish?
Tanned Man. He gets around.
Potato/Potahto…
…”from an ancient Norman lineage.” Too funny! SMH with a big smile on my face.
Spain, France, Italy people on the rampage. Who pays them. Evidently they have no job to go to.
we pay them with our taxes.
Probably a PAID hobby…..Soros has lots of “walking around money” 🙂
Fools!
Proverbs 18:2
“A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.”
No one’s coming to your rescue this time. Uncle Sugar’s sitting this one out.
Pass the Grey Poupon.
And the pepperoni.
and the paella.
Hat tip. My favorite dish ever.
And garlic butter for the extra-large Escargots.
… but of course!!
Someone drank all of my damn Sparkling Discontent. Can anyone spare some Riot? I know it is asking a lot. lol
Until I see burning mosques, it’s all coordinated red/green jihadi-socialism to tear the country apart. Nothing organic about it.
It’s also ANTIFA, Anarchists and NGOs. It’s totally coordinated by the Far Left.
Yeap.. l been watching off & on throughout
the day and much of that “clap clap clap clap
anti fachista” being screamed about…
Also notided that while a rioter was being
held under arrest, there was a guy a few yards
away speaking in perfect American language,
form and traits, telling the police to let the rioter go.
So yes, there are “visitors” there, and I am sure from
many countries.
Eyes Right…
There are organized Commies in the Italian cites. I am Italian and I hate these Commie POS. Most Italians are happy to see them get their heads beaten in.
👍
Arrest everybody wearing a mask.
looks like Planet of the Apes
Looks like the Saint Floyd “peaceful” protests…
Of course, they’re also funded by the same groups.
It does make one think about what we are seeing occur in Europe and the perspective of the “ruling elites” concerning the looting and wanton destruction.
In zoos, foraging is considered an enrichment activity so that captive primates can live happy and healthy lives. However, in the wild, when bands of primates forage on the territories of rival groups, it can lead to aggressive encounters.
In societies based upon justice, accountability, and the rule of law, looting is a criminal activity and participants are treated accordingly.
Mostly peaceful.
Only the news fit to print…
The BBC agrees…
They want the EU destroyed by 3rd world invaders who are taking directions from globalists organizations within the EU.
10 minutes with the proper tools and this would stop
Europe needs to treat the rioters like the police did during the 1968 Democrat Convention in Chicago.
The left love their slogans….
I have one for them….
VOTE BLUE AND THIS CAN BE YOU…
Yeah, they don’t like that….
NO MERCY!
No Merci Beaucoup
The “new” Jacobins need to receive what the “old” Jacobins did – the “National Razor.”
They think hard-core communism is the answer to high prices and lack of opportunity etc? it would be funny if weren’t so tragic.
Who is allowing this to happen right during/before the US midterm elections?
Is it warning the US what will happen if we don’t vote the “correct” way? It seems counterproductive to the end goal.
Or has the entire thing gotten out of the original instigators of this? Kinda like the US democrat party now taken over by DSA?
As it turns out the CCP propaganda dept. isn’t really that bright. Lol, who would guess they would be campaigning for the GOP? We are living in a Clown World. Thank God for President Trump, who will not allow this BS here.
Wow. Seeing the ‘Grill de Vincennes’ brings back a few memories, though at the time, it was not yet so culturally enriched.
Lived for an autumn in Montreuil-sous-Bois, at the edge of the ville de Vincennes, near the peripherique east of Paris.
These are not French protests of the past. This is terrorist warfare against a people and their nation.
Italy also has insane Far Left ANTIFA, Anarchists and NGOs. See the moron laying down in front of the Police truck in one of the X videos. I wish the truck would have run the POS over but the Communist MSM would make them into a Martyr.
I am guessing that guy will be in some serious pain right about now… that cop was poking his side with the baton repeatedly. I hope it REALLY hurts! 😀
As an Italian I am happy when these POS Commies get brutalized. Most are actually wimps.
This will happen inside the USA before Trumps second term is over with , there are recordings of the communist left saying it will be much worse than the summer of 2020 . My question is what happened to finding out who was responsible and holding them accountable ?
This is the guy that is supposedly behind last weekend’s riots and looting in Milan. Il Tempo is a pro Right newspaper.

Translation
Antagonism, Islamism, and ProPal. The true face of Youssef Siher, the mastermind behind the “October 17th Movement.”
by Gianni Di Capua
October 24, 2026 – 4:29 PM
Youssef Siher is the name of the man who is presumably leading the “October 17 Movement,” founded last week to continue the marches and street violence “until the fall of the Meloni government.”
Far from being uneasy: behind the facade of social demands lies not the profile of an outcast but an unsuspecting representative of the integrated intelligentsia. Born in Brescia and of Moroccan origin, he is a freelance journalist for Il Fatto Quotidiano, and graduated in Political Science from Milan with a master’s thesis on Islamic movements in Morocco and their relationship with the monarchy. His resume includes significant experience, not only as a Research Trainee at the ISPI Observatory on the Middle East and North Africa, but also as a student representative in the Academic Senate and president of the Muslim University Students.
However, his social media channels speak for themselves, where the seemingly calm and institutional image he displays in newspapers and professional circles gives way to radicalism. In a post dated September 2025, he shares photos of a barricade separating a pro-Pal march from law enforcement. The accompanying caption reads: “The day will come when we will break that glass wall behind which you hide.” Another post shows people kneeling in prayer in the street in front of a banner reading “against imperialism and Zionism, with the Palestinian resistance,” which he adds: “We do not give up, we win or we die.”
There is no shortage of invectives against Israel, renamed a “Zionist entity,” and messages of historical revisionism against the Jewish Brigade which, he declares, “does not belong to the Italian resistance.” Finally, in the aftermath of the Hamas massacre of October 7, he wrote: “I am Palestine.”
A perfectly integrated profile, hiding radical ideals. He is now under investigation by the Milan Prosecutor’s Office for incitement to crime, apology for crimes, and organized violence at public demonstrations (a new crime under Article 420-bis of the Criminal Code), aggravated by the use of information technology.
“Police in Milan have arrested a 30-year-old man considered the alleged ‘mastermind’ of the ‘October 17th Movement’ and the Instagram account on which violent actions were organized in Italy’s major cities. He is close to the pro-PAL movement, has connections with anti-PAL circles, and is a freelance journalist who has collaborated with a well-known national newspaper and a major research institute.” Interior Minister Matteo Piantedosi wrote this on social media after Youssef Siher was taken to the police station.
We have and use guns.
Our military, now restored, uses guns too.
They may try…
Unfortunately that didn’t happen in the Summer of 2020. The Far Left knows their aligned Communist MSM will claim Martyrdom. Have to remember they have successfully pushed that there is no such thing as the Far Left and only the Far Right.
It is far better to put these thugs into prison for 10 years than to eliminate them in the streets and make them “martyrs.” Thankfully the US now has arrangements to use prisons in other countries, so we don’t have to worry about a potential shortage of prison cells in the US.
Naw, let’s make them martyrs….
I would take that too.
LULZ at people thinking the mil will be on the side of the people.
Women are getting their permit to carry concealed and buying handguns in record numbers, here behind enemy lines in Massachusetts.
All ages.
I see it at my gun club, where there is a waiting list for membership.
Also training up with shotguns on the trap and skeet fields.
With Our Lion as President I doubt individuals will need to do more than protect their own families and businesses.
As an aside, I’ve noticed the price of 9mm ammo is creeping up….
Re: “This will happen inside the USA before Trumps second term is over”
Yes, very likely after the mid-term voting takes place…
The dims/commies plan riots, destruction, and chaos while the vote counters in several states count and recount votes until the dims/commies “find” enough boxes, sacks of “misplaced” ballots to overcome the republican voter turnout…
Re: ” My question is what happened to finding out who was responsible and holding them accountable ?”
Our “government” knows full well who is responsible but is sorely afraid to hold them accountable as evidenced by: 643 days, NO arrests and NO indictments of certain big wig traitors…
Justice doesn’t matter at this point……
Keeping the loonies out of power is ALL that matters…..
Steady your loins and VOTE!
It may be your last chance to….
NO MERCY!
I voted today… Held my nose and voted straight repulsican in effort to help President Trump win the mid-term elections…
Justice may not matter to you, but it does to me…
If you really think justice doesn’t matter, I feel sorry for you…
The Gates of Vienna and Little Green Footballs blogs, back when the latter had an anti-jihad orientation, predicted this twenty years ago.
The latter had one of the bloggers pass away awhile back. Things change
My dad predicted this while I was growing up in the 60s……
col macgregor (now a heretic for criticizing trump’s wars) was predicting it a few months ago.
A version of Camp of the Saints
Camp of the Saints scaled down for the 30 second, soundbite world. One can only hope this graphic comic version gains a foothold here.
Round the “peaceful protesters” up with the military and march them into the outdoor stadium for immediate deportation.
It’s an Islamic invasion aided and abetted by the treasonous Left.
Bullets are way cheaper and far more effective than jailing these Bolsheviks. “Dispatch” them all and the problem goes away quickly.
One wonders if this French Useful Idiot woke up after the “undocumented persons” she said she’d always supported looted and smashed up her store. In the video that went viral she looked completely bewildered.
Moaning Lisa
Moaning Lisa
Men have named you
You’re so like the lady with the mystic smile
Is it only cause you’re stupid
That they blame you
For that Moaning Lisa
Strangeness all the while
Do you smile to tempt
A muslim, Moaning Lisa?
Or is this your way to hide a broken heart?
Many thieves have been brought to your doorstep
They just steal there
And you die there
Are you dumb,
A dim-wit, Moaning Lisa?
Or just a cold and lonely, useful idiot?
Another scuffle.
From what I
m reading, this is planned for us after the midterms. Supposedly starting the 10th in DC. No point in trying to understand what they are protesting as its not really a protest. This is a new war tactic with the intent to overthrow governments.The usual election fraud will go on from the usual culprits, because no solutions have been allowed to secure the integrity of our elections, thanks to John Thune & his subservient RINO sycophants. It seems predictable the riots are being planned to start off when any attempt is made to investigate fraudulent voting. It seems to be getting set up to be a repeat performance of 2020 since none of the ringleaders of the 2020 fraud were ever prosecuted and put in prison. I’m old enough to remember when not one court in the land, not even the Supreme Court would hear any of the cases on election fraud evidence in 2020.
Even if the GOP maintain the majority in the House and Senate, the riots will probably still go off because the Democrats are already screeching about President Trump planning to rig the elections, and this is the narrative their lying propaganda media arm will be bleating 24/7 while the red/green anarchists get the riots going in full gear. Expect this to continue through the rest of Trump’s term and prepare.
I predict the riots will start in CA, which is where election officials have already been put on notice that they will be subject to criminal prosecution if they willfully allow the known non-citizens ballots to be counted in the election results. ICYMI, CA election officials admitted they have no method to verify the citizenship of people who register to vote as a US citizen on their DMV forms and CA then allowing them to vote is all based on “the honor system.” It is completely illegal for non-citizens to vote in CA. The Feds have done cross checks with federal data bases and have confirmed that so far at least 20,000 mail-in ballots went out to known non-citizens. They had asked CA to sequester those ballots but Newsom told them to pound sand. Unfortunately, as soon as election officials separate the ballot from the it’s mailer during the counting process, there is no longer a way to track the ballot. So the feds should be allowed to monitor the counting, but predictably, CA is blocking this.
Everyone should demand to the DOJ that CA federal election results not be certified until a forensic audit is done. The fraud that is going on in CA is a violation of every citizen’s right to free and fair elections.
They aren’t funded and international funding will not only be blocked and confiscated but recipients will be punished. Trump’s admin is all over it here. As much as there are politicians craving for things to happen, they won’t because most still require pay.
“Nothing is more common than for a free people, in times of heat and violence, to gratify momentary passions, by letting into the government, principles and precedents which afterwards prove fatal to themselves.”

Just a bunch of crazy kids that are getting pysched for Steelers vs Saints tomorrow. NFL SUCKS
CBS, “remained largely peaceful.”
Guess that’s the new “mostly peaceful protests” language.
Somewhere in the French military is an ambitious colonel or general. And he’s calculating as to whether he can successfully overthrow Macron, stop the riots and proclaim himself emperor of France.
Where is present Macron presently?
He seems to have taken a leaf out of president Zelensky’s playbook?
When things get hot at home go and travel the world speaking to leaders pretending you are working for your country.
And Karen Bass when the fires broke out.
At least one day, Macron was taking in a Celine Dion concert
I won’t say I’m an optimist at this point in my life but I think this unrest spreading “over there” may motivate more independents or indifferent MAGA’s to turn out.
“….some 3,000 businesses were damaged or looted.” None of which were mosques or Arab businesses.
I don’t understand.
Overwhelmingly over-matched requires live rounds.
One volley, watch ’em flee.
Tragic, but necessary.
Nope…not one….
If your gonna do war…do it right…..
Sound weapons…turn them to mush….
I stand corrected.
The police could go full blown Tiananmen Square to put down the rioters.
The ultimate paymasters and organizer of these “student protests” will recognize the message and understand.
But I doubt whether any of the useful idiots in media or universities would grasp the connection because they have never learned how communism actually works in the real world.
Singham=chinese money
I bet the thousands of rioters they arrested were released after a few hours and back at the scene for more destruction.
Pray for sanity, pray for protection from evil.
I’m getting tired of their language twist, as usual.
They are not protestors, just as they are not migrants.
But as long as the chaos is mostly peaceful, what’s the problem.
This is why the sound cannon and heat ray was invented.
Not on the Evening News…
“Proportionate Response” has a lot to answer for here.
It caused the deaths of many of our soldiers in warzones, and is causing untold damage and the ruination of the lives of innocent people.
Start breaking arms and legs, crack some kneecaps and leave them on the street until the mob disburses. Watch how quickly the whole thing stops.
So I have heard and seen the illegals, and I’m told this is due to high prices and poor schools. Ok what’s the real truth? Why are regular europeans, not just leftists seem to be in the crowds, why are regular people tearing their countries down?
What about the NFL game?
Those who organize and pay the “rioters” know that the NFL is super woke. Not a problem 😎
French can’t count their shriveled prunes and get the same number twice.
Personally I think they need a Kent State moment. That might send a message. But we all know France is spineless to up the ante.
NATO was formed to counter communism. Either NATO can develop a counter strategy, or it should be disbanded before the communists take over.
I don’t think the historical narrative has changed. What happens if we compare what happened in countries where communism took over before they took over?
Why can’t people simply state this plainly? These are violence by design and with intent. The intent is to destabilize, demoralize and to demand the government which has been showing all of this intentionally to “assume more power to stop it.”
Honestly, people involved in organizing these things deserve the death penalty. If the death penalty fits when a person of a certain mindset kills another, then how about the death of a nation or the culture of civilization? The nation and the culture should be able to defend itself.
After all, we know what happens when people aren’t allowed to defend themselves. Is a Western civilization as an entity any less deserving?
