Hey everyone, SUMMER OF OUR DISCONTENT is out today from @aaknopf! I appreciate the love, expect the criticism, and hope this book will reach all the open-minded readers who genuinely care about achieving a healthy and robust multiethnic society once and for all. đđœ
Est ce que le pĂšre de Lola-Fleur Whittaker nâest pas le plus grand troll de lâannĂ©e 2026 ?
Selon sa fille il nâest plus dans sa vie « des annĂ©es » et voilĂ quâil poste aujdâhui sur son compte insta une photo de la petite Ă la fĂȘte de lâHuma qui sâest dĂ©roulĂ© il y a 1 mois đđ

The GRU hacked into Jared Kushner's iPhone. Dutch military intelligence (MIVD) then recruited a GRU spy who gave them access to the hacked phone. What MIVD discovered was that Kushner had access to two bank accounts --one Azerbaijani, the other Israeli --where Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and Emirati ruler Mohammed bin Zayed deposited money. It sounds like a slightly far-fetched episode of "Slow Horses," but it's real. And it proves just how eye-poppingly corrupt this administration was and continues to be as its "special envoy" decides the fate of tens of millions in Europe in the Middle East. Simply incredible reporting by Matthew Cole, drawn from his new book on Kushner. vanityfair.com/story/jared-kâŠ

This is an abominable tweet. She is *criticizing* these decent men and women for coming together to repel the marauders and protect their cityâs shops. But these are exactly the kinds of citizens healthy societies cannot function without.

Lavishly compensated darling of the French and international literary world, Ădouard Louis, who teaches in America, explicitly justifies political violence. Just an absolute moral shitshow.
đŽ Ădouard Louis : "Moi, je suis pour que l'on mette le feu aux rues de Paris ; je suis pour que l'on aille casser des choses. Faire de la politique, c'est avoir ou non du sang sur les mains : il n'y a pas de grande rĂ©volution sans dĂ©bordements."

Graphic footage, with little narration, from major French TV channel of the appalling violence, destruction, anarchy in the centre of Paris last Saturday. Worth watching from beginning to end.
The French Left/Unions demanding resignations at the channel because it only depicts violence and doesnât provide âcontextâ!

Il faut réaliser ce que cela signifie. Les syndicats censés défendre notre métier (il a fallu prendre des risques pour filmer ces images) et nos conditions de travail sont devenus des outils de censure et de pression politique.
Soutien à @LaurentDelahous et à ses équipes.

The irony of course is that the majority of the international art world sympathizes with it not explicitly supports the protesters and their causes, but it doesnât matter. No on can have anything in the context of such nihilism. People need to wake up, France has no future without its cultural capital.
#ArtnetNews: On Wednesday, afternoon, Art Basel organizers made a decision: The fair will close early, on Friday, at 7 p.m., âin light of potential demonstrations across Paris this weekend, and in the interest of safeguarding our visitors,â Vincezo de Bellis, Art Basel's chief artistic officer, and Karim Crippa, the Paris fair's director, said in email to exhibitors.

SCOOP: Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized third-party AI agents inside customer accounts, including some attempting to take actions that appear to be independent of user instructions, sources told Axios.
The findings have alarmed banking executives, who are racing to restrict access to their systems as AI moves at a velocity faster than financial institutions can respond, multiple industry and bank executives told Axios.
Several banks are now preparing for worst-case and even âday afterâ scenarios, including how to rapidly secure or restore customer accounts if things go wrong, the people said.
Several bank executives told Axios they're struggling to distinguish between human users and AI agents. One executive said banks also struggle to determine whether agents are authorized by customers or potentially operating without their permission, more akin to rogue agent behavior.

Of all the things that have been hardest to communicate in my life, this seems the most impossible: that our civilisation is not, by some law of nature, immortal. It has no right or likelihood to continue existing if it insists on committing harakiri.
The people who are welcomed onto our airwaves, work in parts of our government and lead some of our political parties include those who would burn down this country in a heart-beat. They would look us in the eyes and kill us. And we know that because they have done it elsewhere.
They don't do it at the moment because the time is not right. But when they feel it is, they will act. At which point I suppose people will have to decide whether they wish to be spectators at their own funeral pyre or not.

Paris authorities cleaned graffiti from the statue at Place de la Republique on Wednesday following a weekend of protests and riots that prompted authorities to impose an overnight curfew in multiple Paris neighborhoods. The cleanup has sparked calls to leave the graffiti in place longer as a visible reminder of the unrest, which comes six months before France's next presidential election and against a backdrop of economic weakness and surging public debt.

Comme sa mĂšre mange des biscuits parce quâelle ne peut pas payer la cantine, Lola-Fleur Whittaker (LFI) est obligĂ©e de se contenter dâun sac Bottega Veneta dâoccasion Ă 1 500-2 100 ⏠au lieu de 4 200 ⏠neuf.
On nâimagine pas la galĂšre.
La « star » LFIste du moment, qui a rĂ©ussi hier Ă presque faire pleurer dans les chaumiĂšres via une vidĂ©o, en expliquant que ses voyages de luxe câest grĂące Ă des amis riches, ceux sur lesquels LFI dĂ©gueule Ă longueurs de journĂ©es, et dont elle explique elle que ce nâest pas trĂšs grave quâils se fassent dĂ©truite leur outils de production par des manifestants.
Elle explique aussi que sa mĂšre, qui vit avec 4 enfants dans le 15eme arrondissement de Paris, un des plus chers de la capitale, est vraiment obligĂ©e de sâacheter des gĂąteaux pour manger le midi, car elle est Ă dĂ©couvert le 10/12 du mois.
Mais pourquoi donc ne pas faire comme les autres « pauvres », en allant vivre dans une HLM en grande banlieue, et en prenant chaque jour le RER ?
Quant à ses cours à 53⏠les 50 minutes, il ne lui reste que 15/20⏠en réalité, la marmotte lui prenant le reste.
Sur la premiĂšre photo, un iPhone Pro Max, le modĂšle le plus cher, et en bandouliĂšre un sac Ă 5500 balles, logique pour une femme de « gauche » en lutte contre le capitalisme et lâexploitation de lâhomme par lâhomme.
Pour les fringues et les bottes, Ă premiĂšre vue elles ne viennent pas de chez la Foirâfouille⊠on peut supposer Ă premiĂšre vue que ça dĂ©passe les 20âŹ.
Je pense quâen fait ce qui serait bien dans son cas, câest de se faire un peu oublier.
