The SCOTUS decision means we just have to vote harder to re-elect Biden as king of the US

Reminder of what the consequences are with the far right on the precipice of taking power in France

Le Pen clearly wants her candidates to be careful of saying most radical stuff rn. If they win in a week, expect laws within weeks to privatize public radio and TV, and other public services; & priority will surely be a harsh immigration bill. Le Pen wants to end birthright citizenship for one.
