Here in America, we have been watching for some time now the lawfare waged against Donald Trump by the Biden administration, and it is a very effective and powerful tool. But lawfare exists in many other nations like, say, France for example. In an amazing display of coincidence and irony, Emmanuel Macron’s main rival, Marine Le Pen, a woman who has vexed him time and again, is now under investigation for ‘illicit campaign financing’. If convicted, she could serve jail time. C’est magnifique, Mr. President Macron, I am sure you had nothing to do with that.
