“Free Marine Le pen!”

With this dull call, it is strange in the fact that the French leader of the far right walks the streets of Paris, President Trump entered the Allies’ policy, condemning her belief this week on charges of embezzlement and her disqualifications of candidates for public function.

The condemnation was “another example of European leftists who used Lawfare to silence free speech,” Mr. Trump wrote about the truth of Social. Elon Musk, his assistant billionaire, drove home: “Free Leo pen!” Mr. Musk echoed on his social media platform x.

More than an extraordinary American intervention in French politics, statements have neglected tremendous evidence against Mrs. Le Pen, who has been convicted of assistance in orchestraing for many years of redirecting system of European taxpayers’ money to illegally compensate for acute financial difficulties in national rally foreigners in France.

For the US president and his team, as well as the angry choir of supporters Le Pen at home, her case became part of a strong campaign to undermine the separation of powers and reign of the law. Vice -President JD Vance and others accused the liberals of using the law to suffocate the end right and abolish the democratic choice.

Mrs. Le Pen will speak on A great national rally demonstration Sunday in Paris under the flag “We save democracy!” The national rally was founded in 1972 as a national front, the anti-Semitic party of fascist roots, her father Jean-Marie Le Pen. It was long considered to be a direct threat to the democratic rule of the Pete Republic, before Mrs. Le Pen went to transformation.

She is a fed in the French presidential election in 2027, but she will not be able to run if she does not provide a milder judgment on the appeal. The Paris appellation court, accelerating the proceedings, said that the decision would be expected to be rendered by the summer of 2026. However, it is far from clear that this verdict will go on a journey.

The court sentenced Mrs. Le Pen to four years in prison, with two suspension, and the other two that would be used under the form of home custody. Under this judgment, it would not be placed behind bars. For now, Mrs. Le Pen’s appeal puts her sentence on hold.

Mr. Trump, who said that France had put Mr. Le Pen “in jail” and censored, none of them are true, compared her treatment of his own in the hands of the “Lunacius and Losers.” He faced indictments, verdicts and criminal cases on his way to victory in the Presidency last year.

“They get her under a smaller accusation that she probably didn’t know anything,” Mr. Trump said. “It sounds like a ‘bookkeeping error.”

In fact, the dismissals of the evidence produced on the trial and described in detail in The judgment of more than 150 pages Located Mrs. Le Pen in the center of a complex system was developed into three legislative bodies from 2004 to 2016, which used a “auxiliary” job in the European Parliament to finance their party in the European Parliament. People in these “jobs” worked for a party in roles such as a security guard Mrs. Le Pen or a personal assistant.

She denied all the charges, saying that people involved were political assistants, not employees of the European Parliament, although they paid them the funds of the Assembly. The Chairman, Judge Bénédicte de Perthuis, viewed her as a cavalier, one of the reasons she thought she was capable of similar works if they were not forbidden to nomination in public function.

According to the judgment of the Court, June 2, 2014, Jean-Luc Schaffhauser, a former national rally MP in the European Parliament, wrote Wallerand de Saint-Sist, a former party treasurer. “What Marine asks us to do is the equivalent of signing for fictional jobs,” he said. “I understand Marine’s reasons, but we will burn because we will surely be carefully viewed as such a large group.”

On the same month, Mr. Saint-South was written by Mrs. Le Pen, showing the difficult financial situation of the party, the court said. “In 2013, monthly costs were 100,000 euros more than expected,” as a result of missions, admission, travel and conferences, he said. “We will only get a significant savings thanks to the European Parliament.”

These “savings” were close to $ 4.8 million during the time the scheme went on the way. At the same time, in 2014, Mrs. Le Pen, using her ties with President Vladimir V. Putin from Russia, provided a loan from the Russian bank in an extremia to throw out the party.

French courts, acting according to the laws adopted and Strongly supported by Mrs. Le Pen Over the past 15 years, in response to public anger over political corruption, they have strengthened their views on cases involving distinguished politicians, including Nicolas Sarkozy, a former president.

AND 2017.Former premiere, she is relaxed to an investigation by parliamentary jobs involving his wife and several children. He was convicted in 2020, but his case still undergoes an appeal.

While the certificate and disqualification of Mrs. Le Pen is in accordance with this development, they are unique in the ban on the leading presidential candidate.

This lit political passion and led to an intense discussion that launched “democracy” and “peoples” against the law, even if the state was almost certainly headed for autocracy.

“The verdict is a difficult, serious decision awarded a long disqualification of Mrs. Le Pen,” said Anne-Charlène Bezin, a senior lecturer at the University of Rouen. “There has never been anything like this in the fifth Republic. But is it an anti -democratic? Obviously not. The functional judicial system independent of political power is a sign of healthy democracy.”

An poll In the newspaper Ouest-France and the IFOP Institute of Dialing this week, they found that 64 percent of the French supported the capacity of the court to immediately prohibit convicted politicians to run for duty. At the same time, a poll The court worked and IFOP found that 49 percent of people believe that Mrs. Le Pen should be allowed to run for the president.
