Marine Le Pen, the leader of France's far-right party, was found guilty of embezzlement, leading to international support from right-wing leaders. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban declared solidarity with her by saying, "Je suis Marine!" Many right-wing figures, including Donald Trump, criticized the ruling as politically motivated. Trump's comments referred to it as a 'witch hunt' and a violation of free speech. Other leaders, like Elon Musk and Dmitry Peskov, echoed sentiments regarding the abuse of legal systems by the left to undermine democracy. This event reflects a significant polarizing moment in global politics.
Je suis Marine! Hungary's Viktor Orban posted on social media after France's far-right leader, Marine Le Pen, was found guilty of embezzling European parliament funds and barred immediately from running for public office.
The Witch Hunt against Marine Le Pen is another example of European Leftists using Lawfare to silence Free Speech, and censor their Political Opponent, this time going so far as to put that Opponent in prison.
When the radical left can't win via democratic vote, they abuse the legal system to jail their opponents, wrote Elon Musk.
The Kremlin's spokesperson, Dmitry Peskov, described the verdict as part of a broader pattern of European capitals trampling over democratic norms.
