"If we really can't find a solution, and if the League truly wants to play an identity game and run alone, it wouldn't be a tragedy." The words of Alessandro Sorte, Lombardy secretary of Forza Italia, open a diplomatic crisis in the center-right seeking an agreement on the mayoral candidate for Milan. #Milano #Primarie #Centrodestra (translated)

I say: never again wide agreements. Guest at the Foglio party, Elly Schlein sends a clear message like never before to the factions of her party that push her to withdraw from the challenge for the premiership against Giuseppe Conte, making way for a "third name" (like the mayor of Rome Roberto Gualtieri) more attractive to the so-called "moderates." #Politica #Primarie #Progressisti (translated)

"We have reached barbarism, animality: we shoot a human being as if it were a public spectacle. We have gone back ninety years, to the last time a man was hanged in public in the United States. It is truly shameful." With these words, Vincenzo De Luca, in his usual weekly Facebook live address, comments on the decision announced by U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, whom he referred to as "the slicked-back one." What is happening in the United States with the current ruling group at the helm of the country is pushing the world towards levels of barbarism and loss of fundamental human values that leave us truly shocked." The mayor of Salerno describes the announcement as a return to practices that the United States had abandoned for almost a century, and harshly criticizes the Trump administration: "What is happening in the United States with the current ruling group at the helm of the country is pushing the world towards levels of barbarism and loss of fundamental human values that leave us truly shocked." We will have a political season that will record the further fragmentation of the political landscape of our country. Every election campaign eve sees the birth of new lists, new groupings, all that series of nonsense and hypocrisies that serve simply one purpose: to guarantee a candidacy to as many people as possible – he continues – I happened to particularly observe "Civic Project." I called it "Civic Opportunism": it is a way to try to create spaces for candidacy. That’s all." De Luca then comments on the eve of the Italian electoral season, targeting the political formation promoted by Alessandro Onorato, which continues to gather support even in Campania, including from regional councilors so far close to the former president of the Campania Region: "We will have a political season that will record the further fragmentation of the political landscape of our country. I have been repeating for decades that there is a condition of total anomaly in Italy. When you need to make political choices on major issues (healthcare, transportation, taxation, justice, foreign policy), you can have two different positions, three, four, five hypotheses for solving problems or lines on which to position yourself to tackle the issues. But you can’t have twenty lines of economic policy, twenty healthcare policies, twenty transportation policies." They pretend to contribute to the governance of the country, but in reality, they are great charades and initiatives of opportunism that simply serve to open spaces for the candidacies of a few characters in search of an author." #VincenzoDeLuca #Elezioni #PoliticaUSA (translated)

The mayoral candidate of Milan, Salvatore Varano, portrayed himself with black skin, declaring himself the Italian Obama, while facing a conviction for false invoicing and launching a campaign for Palazzo Marino, promoting a series of committees for his civic project. #Milano #Elezioni #Politica (translated)
