The yellow vests are not on our side. Repeat.

[Recursion]

Les gilets-jaunes ne sont past de notre cote.

This gets worse and worse the more I look at it. This is 100% a Russian-funded anti-EU movement.

Do not fall for it.

3. Yep. This is an attempt to rehabilitate Le Pen

[The Mouth]

11. Maybe worse

Putin is smarter than any of the last few soviet leaders except maybe Gorbachev. And without the CCCP around their necks they are a lot more flexible.

12. It looks like Macron, unlike our ignoramus, gave a speech to his country, saying he will back off

the increased tax burden and other costs to the populous, and apologized for ignoring the increased cost burden

Hopefully, that will put flames out.

Macron did acknowledge that it would definitely increase their deficit

I miss our French poster, who seems to be gone from DU, darn it.

10. Seemed pretty obvious but

I am sorry to see it happening. I love France, and I would never want to see the tensions worsen.
