"La stratégie jupette, ça marche" : sidérée par la réflexion sexiste d'un élu à Toulouse, Maguelone Pontier témoigne https://t.co/mbl5Hmy2n2

[David Smith @digidavey]

She was 27 years old.
And in her final minutes alive, she tried to comfort everyone else.
On September 11, 2001, a young woman picked up an Airfone on a hijacked plane and spoke eight words her family has carried for the rest of their lives:
“This is going to be so much harder for you than it is for me.”
Her name was Honor Elizabeth Wainio.
Everyone called her Lizz.
Two days earlier, she had been in Paris.
She had just returned from Europe — a long-anticipated trip filled with joy. She attended a friend’s wedding in Florence. She walked the Champs-Élysées. She stepped into a church and lit a candle for her grandmother.
She once told her mother that if she ever got to see Paris, she could die happy.
She was 27. A rising district manager for Discovery Channel Stores. Driven. Organized. Warm. The kind of person who lived quickly because she believed there was so much life ahead.
On the morning of September 11, 2001, Lizz boarded United Airlines Flight 93 in Newark, bound for San Francisco.
There were 40 passengers and crew onboard.
At 9:28 a.m., four hijackers stormed the cockpit.
The plane violently dropped 700 feet. Screams filled the cabin. Passengers were forced to the rear of the aircraft.
But something happened on Flight 93 that changed history.
Through phone calls placed from seat-back Airfones and cell phones, passengers learned the unimaginable truth: planes had already struck the World Trade Center. The Pentagon had been hit.
This was not a hostage situation.
It was a coordinated suicide attack.
The people onboard understood before it was too late.
In the chaos, someone handed Lizz a phone.
“Call someone you love.”
She reached her stepmother, Esther.
Her voice, according to family accounts and later investigations, was steady. Clear. Not hysterical. Not broken.
She was trying to protect the person on the other end.
“It just hurts me most,” she said, “that this is going to be so much harder for you than it is for me.”
Pause there.
A 27-year-old woman, facing death at 30,000 feet, worried more about her family’s grief than her own fear.
They spoke for several minutes — about four, according to reports. They breathed together. There were no dramatic speeches. Just love carried through static.
Then Lizz said something else.
“I’m gonna be with Grandma.”
Her grandmother had lived near rural Pennsylvania — not far from where the plane would ultimately crash. Lizz could not have known that.
But in that moment, she found comfort in reunion.
At 9:57 a.m., passengers made a collective decision.
They were going to fight back.
Flight attendant Sandra Bradshaw told her husband she was boiling water to throw at the hijackers. Passenger Todd Beamer prayed the Lord’s Prayer with an operator and said words that would echo across a stunned nation:
“Let’s roll.”
Lizz’s final words came just before the counterattack began.
“They’re getting ready to break into the cockpit. I have to go. I love you. Good-bye.”
At 10:03 a.m., Flight 93 crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
Investigators later concluded the hijackers were likely targeting either the U.S. Capitol or the White House. Because the passengers resisted, the aircraft never reached its intended target.
The 40 passengers and crew were later awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in recognition of their courage.
Today, the site is preserved as the Flight 93 National Memorial.
There stands the Tower of Voices — 40 wind chimes, each tuned to a distinct note. When the wind crosses that quiet Pennsylvania field, the chimes do not blend into one sound.
They remain separate.
Individual.
For years, Lizz’s father would call her cellphone just to hear her voicemail greeting. One day, the service was discontinued. The message was gone.
He later said losing her voice a second time felt unbearable.
At the memorial, he listens for a particular chime.
“That’s my daughter,” he says.
Honor Elizabeth Wainio’s story is not only about how she died.
It is about how she chose to live her final minutes.
She had just seen Paris. She had just lit a candle for her grandmother. She had plans. She had momentum. She had a future.
And when the worst moment imaginable arrived, she did not ask for comfort.
She gave it.
In a day remembered for smoke and terror, there were also phone calls filled with grace. There were strangers who became allies. There were ordinary people who refused to surrender quietly.
Thirty thousand feet above the earth, a young woman chose love over panic.
And because of people like her — frightened, human, brave — history shifted.
We remember her.
We remember all forty.

🚨🎙️ Jürgen Klopp on Gianni Infantino’s plan to sell stakes in the FIFA World Cup;

🗣️"Look, I try to stay out of the politics, I really do. But at some point, you just have to ask: who is actually thinking about the game here?

"Gianni Infantino comes out with this idea to sell twenty percent of the World Cup to private equity investors, and I just shake my head. It’s always about more money, more games, more commercialization. They want to hand out twenty million dollars to every federation to buy votes, but what about the actual sport? The World Cup isn't a tech startup you can sell stakes in to the highest bidder on Wall Street. It belongs to the players and the fans. But as usual, the people making these decisions are sitting in air-conditioned offices, miles away from a football pitch, treating a hundred years of history like an investment portfolio.

"And then UEFA comes out and says, 'Oh, football has a soul, we will boycott!' Come on. Give me a break.
"I’ve been criticizing UEFA for years about the Nations League, the bloated Champions League formats, and squeezing the players until they break. Now suddenly they want to act like the guardians of traditional football? It’s laughable. UEFA isn't angry because football is being commercialized—they’ve been doing that themselves for a decade. They’re just angry that FIFA found a bigger bag of money and didn't leave a cut for them.

"It’s two giants fighting over who gets to keep the wallet, while the players and supporters are left in the middle, completely ignored. We keep adding tournaments, adding money, adding investors—and nobody stops to ask if the product on the pitch will even survive it."

🚨 SENATOR OF PARAGUAY, CELESTE SINEZOR OPEN LETTER TO KYLIAN MBAPPÉ:

The problem is between you and me. I have never said anything against France. On the contrary, I stand with France. I studied at a French school from the age of 2 until I was 17, where I completed my education. I am who I am thanks to the Collège de l’Immaculée Conception and the education it gave me. We sang La Marseillaise and honored the French flag alongside our own. I speak French and I love visiting France. Last Christmas, I spent the holidays with my family in Courchevel, and we welcomed the New Year in Saint Tropez. This has nothing to do with France. The problem is with you.

Your arrogance and contempt angered me long before the match, when you said, “If we have to put our hands in the dirt, then let’s do it.” We are not stupid. We understood perfectly that by “the dirt,” you meant the Paraguayan team, and the Paraguayan team represents all of us. Then you said you were going to remove our makeup. We understood that too. All of Paraguay remained silent, myself included. We endured it.

During the match, your arrogance was obvious. Your contempt for every Paraguayan player was clear, as if they were beneath you. Without even covering your mouth, you shouted, “La concha de tu madre,” an extremely offensive insult in Latin America, and you know it.

Finally, you showed complete disregard for the health of our goalkeeper. That is something you simply do not do. Respect between rivals after a match is almost sacred, in war and in peace, in defeat and in victory. Yet you refused to shake his hand and shouted your victory in his face. In a single moment, you displayed contempt, arrogance, and poor manners. It hurt me, it hurt my entire country, and it hurt deeply. France should hold you accountable because it is a nation of honor, with centuries of history and savoir faire.

My posts were written in the heat of the moment, with my blood boiling, the blood of a mixed heritage, a beautiful blend of Indigenous and Spanish ancestry that runs through my veins. I wrote them while watching you mock those extraordinary Paraguayan players who fought as equals until the final whistle. However, I immediately regretted responding to you with the same insults that I myself receive. I realized I was repeating the very behavior I despise, so I deleted the post. I understand that my words offended you because humiliation hurts.

Now I demand that you also retract your statements and apologize to me. I will not tolerate your violence either. You do not know me. You have no idea who I am, and you have no right to say that I AM A DESPICABLE WOMAN, UNWORTHY OF THE OFFICE I HOLD.

I am a Senator of the Paraguayan Nation, elected by the people. Before that, I was a National Deputy, also elected by the people. Thousands of Paraguayan men and women voted for me and consider me their voice. My foremost duty is to speak for the Paraguayan people, to say what they cannot say, and to defend my country with my life if necessary.

I represent my country because I was freely elected. I was chosen in democratic elections to help make its laws and to be its voice. You have no idea what it means to be elected to defend your nation and represent its people.

Who are you to call me unworthy or despicable when you do not even know me? This is blatant gender based violence. This is political violence against a woman who earned her position through the democratic vote of her people. You insult me because I am a woman. You attack my dignity as a woman and as a political representative.

Retract your statements, honor your French citizenship, and apologize. Otherwise, I may pursue legal action for gender based violence.

Celeste Amarilla
Senator of the Paraguayan Nation

Pas de chiens de traîneau cette fois... juste 15 vrais soldats français, motivés comme jamais, qui crient en choeur :

[Radouan Kourak @radouan_kourak]

Est-ce que je suis raciste ? Non. Et je vais vous dire pourquoi. Le vrai racisme aujourd’hui, il vient de cette gauche qui traite les gens comme moi d’« arabe de service », de « Bounty », de « traître à sa race » parce que j’aime la France, parce que je suis patriote, parce que je refuse le communautarisme. Ce sont eux les haineux. La vérité, c’est que la France est un pays de race blanche et de culture chrétienne. Ce n’est ni un gros mot, ni une provocation : c’est un fait historique. Et vouloir préserver cette identité, ce n’est pas du racisme. C’est de la fidélité. De la loyauté. De la reconnaissance. Il est temps de remettre les choses à l’endroit.

En réalité, je me fiche qu’on me traite de raciste, car je sais que je ne le suis pas. En revanche, je déteste sincèrement le racisme, sous toutes ses formes. Et c’est précisément parce que je l’ai vécu que je me permets d’en parler : pas le racisme fantasmé de ceux qui voient le mal partout, mais le racisme réel, celui que j’ai subi venant de ceux qui prétendent lutter contre lui.

Combien de fois m’a-t-on insulté d’« arabe de service », de « Bounty », de « bougnoule qui a retourné sa veste » ? Toujours par des gens prétendument antiracistes. Ce sont eux les vrais racistes. Ils essentialisent les individus à leur origine. Ils n’acceptent pas qu’un Français issu de l’immigration puisse aimer la France, défendre ses valeurs, refuser le communautarisme… Leur tolérance s’arrête à ceux qui pensent comme eux.

Je le répète : je me fiche de la couleur de peau. Ce qui compte, c’est le comportement. En France, on vit à la française. On respecte ses lois, ses mœurs, sa langue, sa culture. Cela ne veut pas dire qu’on rejette les autres cultures. Mais elles ont leur place dans la sphère privée, pas dans l’espace public au détriment de notre identité nationale.

Et oui, il est essentiel que la France reste la France. Si demain la France cesse d’être majoritairement française, si sa culture, ses paysages humains, sa mémoire, son âme disparaissent, alors ce ne sera plus la France. Ce n’est pas un détail. C’est une question de civilisation. La France , ce n’est pas une simple zone géographique : c’est un héritage, une continuité, un peuple.

Je suis un enfant de l’immigration. La France m’a tout donné : une éducation, des droits, une liberté, une dignité. Je lui dois tout. C’est à nous, issus de l’immigration, d’être à la hauteur de ce pays qui a accueilli nos parents. L’immigration n’est pas une chance pour la France. C’est la France qui est une chance pour l’immigré. Dites l’inverse dans n’importe quel autre pays, et vous comprendrez vite ce que je veux dire.

Ce que je défends, ce n’est pas la haine de l’autre. C’est l’amour de la France. L’assimilation n’est pas un rejet : c’est une main tendue. C’est un projet. Un idéal. Un pacte. Et ce pacte est aujourd’hui brisé, à Paris comme ailleurs, par une idéologie du « vivre-ensemble » qui ne produit que de la séparation, du bruit, de la violence, du rejet…

Il y a bel et bien un grand remplacement culturel en cours. Si l’on veut continuer à vivre en France, alors il faut vivre comme les Français. Sinon, il faut avoir l’honnêteté de vivre ailleurs. Ce n’est ni haineux ni radical : c’est simplement du bon sens.

La France est sans doute le pays le moins raciste du monde. Mais c’est aussi le seul pays où on vous traite de raciste dès que vous êtes fier d’être français. Je passe beaucoup de temps à l’étranger, je suis journaliste, producteur mais aussi entrepreneur, je voyage beaucoup et je vous le garantis : dans tous les pays du monde, le patriotisme est une évidence. Il n’y a qu’en France que cela pose problème. Et c’est précisément cela que je dénonce.

Je continuerai à dire ce que je vois, à décrire ce que je ressens, même si cela dérange. Parce que je n’ai qu’un camp : la France. 🇫🇷💙
