Marine Le Pen has been banned from running for public office for 5 years effective immediately after she was found guilty, along with 8 other officials from her party National Rally, of embezzling EU Parliament funds.

This means she will not be able to run in the next presidential election in 2027

She has also been sentenced to four years in jail (two of which are suspended jail terms)

@randahl no law will stop #diaperdon from going against a #court order, he has decided he is above the law, we already seen this in the deportation case. In a working #democracy he would be #impeached but #gop has decided to give the president free hands to do any type of atrocities.

Let see he will try to prevent the midterms or his powers will be taken from him.

A serial #car #thief has been sent to #jail and banned from #driving after stealing and crashing an #EV converted #VW #Kombi ( Typ2) in #Powys #Wales worth £65 000 as he couldn't handle the vehicles acceleration and skidded on manure on a country road (alas, the vehicle was written off)

(incidentally this seems to be a *really* quick turnaround for a Crown #Court case, from #arrest (and #remand) to jail barely within a month?)

Former Spanish military man who spied on Assange for the CIA is investigated for falsifying evidence.

Since his arrest in September 2019, David Morales has denied any involvement in the wiretaps against Assange.

Months later, he reversed his statements and told the first judge to oversee the case at the National Court that it was the former Ecuadorian ambassador to London who had ordered him to record the conversations.
