Chicago Boy wrote that he dined the night before with a right-wing advisor to Lecornu, whom he described as profoundly disillusioned by the exercise of Macronist power. According to this interlocutor's assessment, the failure of Macronism was attributed to the political origins of its leaders, most of whom came from the left, particularly the Socialist Party, the Rocardian movement, or the CFDT, and were influenced by its values. Chicago Boy believed that this legacy led Macronist leaders to only half-heartedly pursue right-wing policies. He cited the replacement of the ISF with an IFI, which he deemed almost as counterproductive, the numerous exceptions to the pension reform that would have limited savings before it was suspended, as well as the promise to eliminate 100,000 public sector jobs, whereas their number had actually increased by 200,000. He concluded that one should never vote for the soft center. #Macronisme #PolitiqueFrançaise #GaucheDroite (translated)

The author stated that Macronists, the right, and the National Rally voted together against the taxation of the superprofits of oil companies. He added that Total had increased its profits by 72% in one year due to the war, while the population suffered from rising prices at the pump, and described these parties as conduits for corporate interests in the European Parliament. https://t.co/cHELUf6akV #SuperProfits #Taxation #Politique #FR (translated)

Philippe Murer claimed that Germany had left the Franco-German tank project after withdrawing from the SCAF aircraft program. According to him, France had thus lost 10 years of development for the successor to the Leclerc tank. He also argued that France risked losing control of Nexter, the manufacturer of tanks and the Caesar gun. KNDS was 50% owned by the French state, he wrote, but a new plan accepted by the Élysée aimed to reduce the French share to 40%. Murer accused the Macronists of betrayal and described the Franco-German defense cooperation as a disaster for France. He called for France to regain full ownership of Nexter and demanded the dissolution of the KNDS joint venture. #France #Défense #IndustrieMilitaire (translated)

Paul Vannier wrote that the National Rally voted against eight measures examined the day before in the finance committee, which, according to him, would have made the wealthiest contribute to the financing of public services. He cited the creation of a universal tax aimed at the very wealthy residing abroad, the elimination of the flat tax on dividends, two proposals to raise this tax, the tripling of the surcharge on very high incomes, an increase in the minimum tax rate on large fortunes, a measure against circumventing inheritance rights through the spreading of donations, and the deindexation of the highest tax brackets from inflation. Vannier added that the RN had voted with the Macronists. #JusticeFiscale #Richesse #ServicesPublics (translated)

He also mentioned the right, the far right, and the Macronists, before referring to a "posture" without providing further details. (translated)

"Dozens of far-left deputies sit in the National Assembly thanks to the withdrawal of macronist candidates and the central bloc during the second round of the 2024 legislative elections. The French have not forgotten it. You will also have to account politically for having given a leg up to these militants of chaos and insurrection." And she is absolutely right. #MarineLePen #Législatives2024 #Politique (translated)

Dozens of far-left deputies are sitting in the National Assembly thanks to the withdrawal of Macronist candidates and the central bloc during the second round of the 2024 legislative elections.

Attal is lying. The prefecture has just denied his fake news. His manipulation of national education staff is pathetic. The vast majority of them support the high school students with whom they are facing the consequences of the lack of resources imposed by the Macronists. #Éducation #FakeNews #Macron (translated)

The Macron government has mutilated two children in 24 hours. Not a resignation. Not an apology. Not a gesture. The Macronists indulge in ultraviolence. #Macron #violence #politique (translated)

Alert: the macronists want to charge students for registration in BTS and preparatory classes. Here are the first announcements from Lecornu, during the mobilization of high school students, to cut 54 billion from our public services. We will prevent it: censorship. #BTS #Éducation #Mobilisation #FR (translated)

Fabrice Arfi lies about everything. The height of ignominy, he manipulates a phrase from Marine Le Pen at the moment of her father's death. Marine said that excluding her father was the most difficult thing to do as a daughter, a choice she nonetheless accepted as a stateswoman. A human sentiment that Fabrice Arfi despises like 90% of the left and the Macronists because they dehumanize any member of the RN. They are monstrous. #Politique #MarineLePen #LibertéDExpression (translated)
