French Revolution

Two-thirds of the people of France would support ending the ‘Fifth Republic’, as President Emmanuel Macron continues to fail to restore order.

How can the land of Liberté become just another spavined satrapy of the globalist technocratic elite’s biosecurity panopticon nightmare?

The French Revolution was the screech of a mob, much as we are seeing in several of our own cities and towns today. So let’s review this absurdly celebrated event.

Chaos erupted in France as thousands of protesters flooded onto the streets of Paris to mark Bastille Day.

Zach Dasher, nephew of Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson, joined SirusXM host Stephen K. Bannon on Monday’s edition of Breitbart News Daily to discuss the Cannes debut of Torchbearer, which counts both Bannon and Dasher among its production team.

Monday on his radio show, Glenn Beck called Breitbart’s Milo Yiannopoulos “Goebbels” and  denounced one of his recent articles as “one of the more evil stories I have ever read.” He blasted Breitbart for “pushing … poison to the republic.”

July 4th marks the climax of the American Revolution, remembered with fireworks, family, and fun. But this year, there are three other revolutions that overshadow our own. The first is the French Revolution. Unlike the Americans, who preserved their religious
