Nearly 300,000 French citizens took to the streets over the weekend to protest the economic policies of their president Emmanuel Macron, whose newest taxes, imposed on the French people to pay for climate change, coupled with his globalist open borders policy that has allowed the Muslim migrant invasion, causing unemployment and crime to soar across France, are the proverbial straws that broke the camel’s back and has sent citizens into the streets in a collective rage.
We reported a week ago on the “Yellow Jacket” (or Yellow Vest) protest movement that was taking hold across France. Already the most taxed citizens in the developed world, the French people have had enough and are demanding that Macron resign.
Macron’s response? He’s hiding, believing, it seems, that if allowed to run its course, the wave of protests will subside and daily life will return to normal. This may be yet another horrible miscalculation by Macron as the protests have only grown larger, more widespread, and more violent.

Many protesters across Europe are invoking the name of Donald Trump, the populist president elected by the American people to crush the globalist tyranny being forced down their throats by the likes of the UN.
The EU, fully onboard with the globalist agenda, has implemented the UN’s oppressive tyranny to the letter. From climate change to migration as a human right, the EU has been in lockstep with its UN masters.

According to BPR, “Macron went into hiding over the weekend, as 290,000 protestors raged across France. Hundreds of roadblocks were put up. A thousand people were arrested on Saturday. Polls show three out of four French people approve of the demonstrations. Many French citizens no longer consider him “a man of the people”, and his approval rating has cratered: one poll shows him at 18% approval and other polls are at 20% and 23%.
Protestors’ grievances against Macron and the French government are varied, but can be boiled down to a couple of severe national problems.
The leftist press claims the demonstrations are about sharply rising gas taxes, but the major reason is an uprising against immigration. Immigrants are not only taking available jobs from French citizens, too many immigrants are destructive, welfare-gobbling, and committing crimes against young French women. The violence level in France exceeds that of 16 other European nations, and France has become the “sick man” of Europe. French natives, and other native Europeans as well, are tired of paying the tab for African, Muslim and “Eastern” immigrants.”
Mainstream media is hiding this rebellion against the liberal leftists in Paris, France. This is the third consecutive weekend of riots against the liberal Macron administration. https://t.co/acercr0PZC

As #Paris exploded with further protests and riots this weekend over French President Emmanuel #Macron's liberal policies, France's so-called leader was hiding inside his presidential palace as the streets erupted in fury.

“Armored vehicles are patrolling Paris streets, and we are seeing these vehicles quashing protesting nationalists while they have let the middle-east and African invaders run wild. Starting with former French socialist president Hollande, the French government and the globalists, concealing the underlying problem of immigrants, have taken in more than they can swallow. The French culture is under attack from immigrants who refuse to assimilate. The French citizens have had enough, and they are blaming Macron. And, unlike Trump in America, Macron is not keeping his campaign promises. Macron thought he could steamroll rural citizens on gas taxes in order to pay the costs of climate control, leading to the recent French riots.”
Clearly, the globalists, from Soros to Barack Hussein and the Clintons to Macron, believe that there is no limit to the abuses a government may inflict upon the citizenry, that the people will simply take all of the maltreatment their elected leaders can dish out, go to bed grumbling, only to wake up in the morning and trudge off to work again, unwilling to resist the incremental injury.
“Another indication of Macron’s political stupidity was his statement in November that “Patriotism is the opposite of nationalism”. Had to laugh out loud at this insult to reality. Macron cannot grasp the fact that patriotism and nationalism are complementary, not contradictory. Patriotism is love of one’s country and nationalism is defending the interests of one’s country. Globalists are on the other side of the fence, demanding a one-world government. Globalism would cede American sovereignty to international institutions run by bureaucrats thousands of miles away.”
I agree that Macron’s “Patriotism is the opposite of nationalism” remark is simple stupidity. I disagree, however, that they are complementary. They are, in fact, the same thing. A nationalist is a patriot and vice versa.
“Let’s look at what socialism and globalist thinking have brought to France. The French government, mismanaged for years, has run a budget deficit every year since the 1970s. The French government taxes are over 46% of its GDP economic output, which has propelled France into the highest taxed nation in the developed world. It has the “second-weakest economic growth of advanced economies”, with an unemployment rate around 10%. 90% of French workers are covered by collective bargaining agreements, they get 27 vacation days and their average weekly work hours are 30. We can call this a recipe for a lousy economy. All this should serve as a wake-up call to worldwide leftist leaders, infected with politically correct “worker’s paradise” ideas they jam down citizens’ throats, while they try to lead people down the socialist road.” Read more….
