C'est du Sartre, ce n'est pas tout jeune, mais je trouve que cet extrait reste pertinent, surtout en cette période de "noyer la zone sous la merde" comme le stratégise Steve Bannon.

France: le gouvernement et ArcelorMittal s'opposent au projet de nationalisation voté par l'Assemblée
Le gouvernement français et ArcelorMittal ont réaffirmé, vendredi 28 novembre, leur opposition ferme à toute nationalisation des actifs français de l'aciériste, au lendemain de l'adoption en première lecture à l'Assemblée nationale d'une proposition de loi LFI en ce sens. Le texte risque fort d'être retoqué par le Sénat.

New in PN: MAGA's Epstein gaslighting is unsustainable
"The Epstein files are a 'hoax,' Trump says — a lie made up by Dems to make him look bad. Yet somehow, at the same time, there’s nothing in them that could make him look bad — b/c if there was, Biden would have released them. So which is it?"

Confirmed: Earlier this morning a photog overheard agents inside the parking garage say “dismissed,” believed to be calling off their planned mass raid.
A source tells me they had planned for *hundreds* of agents to flood Canal St. They got flooded instead.

Everyone should read this terrifying thread about Hegseth’s published views wrt war crimes. It’s pretty fucking radical …. We needed to hear about this in his confirmation hearing.
A chapter in Hegseth’s book is literally titled “More Lethality, Less Lawyers.”

La France, un pays de rentiers qui devrait taxer plus les gros héritages
L’ascenseur social par les revenus du travail n’existe plus en France. C’est la richesse des parents qui détermine celle des enfants. D’où l’idée de taxer davantage les héritages des riches qui échappent largement à l’impôt, pour remettre une dose de justice dans le système.

Creating a military conflict with Venezuela gives this administration a legal "hook" to invoke the Alien Enemies Act. In other words, the foreign war is being manufactured in order to facilitate court deference for its domestic mass deportation policy. It's a Stephen Miller Special.
