“If I Gotta Explain You Wouldn't Understand” - Ed Roth

[Global Government Affairs @GlobalAffairs]

French judicial authorities raided X’s Paris office today in connection with a politicized criminal investigation into alleged manipulation of algorithms and purported fraudulent data extraction. We are disappointed by this development, but we are not surprised. The Paris Public Prosecutor’s office widely publicized the raid—making clear that today’s action was an abusive act of law enforcement theater designed to achieve illegitimate political objectives rather than advance legitimate law enforcement goals rooted in the fair and impartial administration of justice.

The Paris Public Prosecutor's Office is plainly attempting to exert pressure on X’s senior management in the United States by targeting our French entity and employees, who are not the focus of this investigation. The Prosecutor’s Office has ignored the established procedural mechanisms to obtain evidence in compliance with international treaties and X’s rights to defend itself. These procedural mechanisms are well known and used on a daily basis by judicial authorities around the world.

The allegations underlying today’s raid are baseless and X categorically denies any wrongdoing. Today’s staged raid reinforces our conviction that this investigation distorts French law, circumvents due process, and endangers free speech. X is committed to defending its fundamental rights and the rights of its users. We will not be intimidated by the actions of French judicial authorities today.

Les autorités judiciaires françaises ont perquisitionné ce jour les bureaux parisiens de X dans le cadre d'une enquête pénale reposant sur des motivations politiques et faisant suite à des allégations de manipulation d'algorithmes et de prétendues extractions frauduleuses de données. Nous sommes déçus par ce développement mais il ne nous surprend pas. Le parquet de Paris a donné un large écho médiatique à cette mesure, démontrant ainsi qu’elle constitue un acte judiciaire abusif visant à atteindre des objectifs politiques illégitimes plutôt qu’à favoriser la plus juste application de la loi dans le respect d’une administration loyale et impartiale de la justice.

Le parquet de Paris tente manifestement d’exercer une pression sur la direction générale de X aux Etats-Unis en visant notre entité française, étrangère aux faits poursuivis, ainsi que ses employés, au mépris des mécanismes procéduraux établis par les traités internationaux leur permettant de collecter des preuves ainsi que du droit de X de se défendre. Ces mécanismes et véhicules procéduraux sont parfaitement connus et utilisés quotidiennement par les autorités judiciaires du monde entier.

Les allégations ayant justifié cette perquisition sont infondées et X réfute catégoriquement avoir commis la moindre infraction. Cette mise en scène ne fait que renforcer sa conviction que cette enquête viole le droit français, constitue un détournement de procédure et porte atteinte à la liberté d'expression. X est déterminée à défendre ses droits fondamentaux ainsi que ceux de ses utilisateurs. Nous ne nous laisserons pas intimider par les mesures mises en œuvre aujourd'hui par les autorités judiciaires françaises.

France responds to Elon Musk after he called the raid of Twitter (X) offices a ‘political attack’

“Investigating child sexual abuse material isn’t controversial. Turning it into political theater is manipulation. Maybe that logic flies on some island. Doesn’t fly in France”

🇺🇸🇮🇹 Epstein invited Berlusconi to a party and Berlusconi answered:

“No thanks, at my place the food is better, and the wine is so good that the girls come back on their own, no need for kidnapping.”

Donald Trump served as a judge in a teenage model contest in 1991. The contest featured 14-year-old girls. Recently, the newspaper The Guardian discovered that the contest was a front so that millionaires could have sex with the girls.

Tesla's over inflated stock is crashing - wouldn't it be funny if it became a penny stock?

@elonmusk @realDonaldTrump Elon, congrats! You’ve finally invented the time machine! 🚀🔙 Just a little more effort, and you’ll take TSLA’s value straight back to 2021… and if you really push it, maybe even 2019! 😆📉

Nazi Elon Musk calls Poland’s leader a small man and commands him to be quiet. That’s how Musk and Trump’s US see Poland: weak and subservient.

[Vatnik Soup @vatniksoup]

An unelected bureaucrat is now demeaning Poland’s Foreign Minister.

Too much ketamine again?

[Vatnik Soup @vatniksoup]

I have never seen anyone lose their reputation as quickly as Elon Musk.

This blunder will be studied for decades.

🇺🇦📷 JD Vance’s cousin fought for over two years in Ukraine as part of the "Da Vinci Wolves." 🐺

47-year-old Nate Vance, a former U.S. Marine, joined Ukraine’s forces in 2022, saying he "saw history being written." "JD is smart, but what they did to Zelensky was a dishonest ambush. Being relatives doesn’t mean I’ll accept him aiding in the killing of my comrades." – Nate Vance.

So Elon Musk is out here calling Poland’s Foreign Minister a “small man” and telling him to “be quiet”—because nothing says strategic genius like insulting one of America’s closest allies.

Musk and Trump are speedrunning America’s fall from global leadership, all because their fragile egos can’t handle criticism.

Poland has been on the frontlines supporting Ukraine, bolstering NATO, and strengthening Western alliances—but sure, let’s pick fights with them instead.

This delusional billionaire superiority complex isn’t strength. It’s how empires collapse—thinking you’re untouchable while alienating the very people keeping you from sinking.

America’s greatest threat? It’s own arrogance.

Russian accounts claim Italy’s Meloni has switched sides on Ukraine, but nothing could be further from the truth

From what I see, she’s doubling down by proposing an Article 5 security guarantee for Ukraine even without NATO membership. Here’s what she said

Excellent summary of the current geopolitical situation.

@elonmusk The Ukraine Parliament issued a statement in SUPPORT of President Trump's pursuit of a peace treaty.

9/ Without President Reagan and U.S. financial support, the Soviet empire’s collapse would not have been possible. Reagan called the USSR an “Empire of Evil” and confronted it decisively.
