You are uninformed on France politics and especially Mélenchon. He is not communist. He was a Trotskyist when he was very young but then pivoted and joined the socialist party. He held the education ministry under Chirac/Jospin government and is a committed reformist. He truly thinks election are the way to reform the current system.

FI is not classified as far left by any organism with credibility. The current FI program is less radical than the one from Mitterrand back when he won the presidency (no nationalization for example). The program is a social democrat/Keynesian one.

Despite this I still think hes the best chance for France and I think hes more radical than what their program lets on.

He also has some weird nostalgia for France imperialism claiming that he is proud France is present in all oceans for example (Thanks to France's colonies)

Having said all that I'm really fond of the guy and what he did to preserve the left in France and raise a generation of more radical militants through his Parti de Gauche and then La France Insoumise.

Everybody is tariffed as the US imposed a 10% blanket tariff. However, there is still a 2.5B USD trade deficit with Russia, so I would have expected to see more than the 10% blanket especially if we apply the apparent formula they use.

Not sure if other countries in a similar position as Russia have also been spared additionnal tariffs.

Liberals are currently governing with RN tacit approval and passing many of their texts. This would make no sense for them.

Neil: "Listen, listen" proceeds to describe what humans do to sentient beings literally fucking right now as somehow a gotcha to vegans

The guy is like a lib saying socialism is bad and then proceeding to describe capitalism as examples of said things lmao.

Last time a court gave the same verdict it was also linked to an obligation to leave the country. Valls the minister at the time simply refused to sign this order to kick him out of the country thus rendering the verdict moot.

I expect the same shit this time around.

Edit: Just read more into the case and this time the court did not require a signed order for his release.

Do you have some source regarding the transformation of the education in Ukraine post 2014 ? What I found was banning of literature written by soviet and Russian authors.

Is there more ?

Lack of education truly is fascism's and capitalism's greatest ally

If you look at the video in its entirety he spent the interview basically saying "we might vocally support bad things but republicans exist so...." by saying "the other side was talking about eating cats and dogs so why are we talking about fracking" and the short video @Parzivus@hexbear.net posted is basically the end on the interview and him just saying that when pressed by NBC about why Harris and him changed sides on the issue.

Still a massive shithead but not as incoherent as I first thought when I saw the first video.
