Will this crisis impact our imports of French fries and French toast? Asking for a friend, a newly minted congresswoman from Queens, NY....

January 5th will now just be a larger 'yellow vest' demonstration.

He is not 'key'. It's an amorphous, leaderless, grass roots movement. If anything, his arrest makes him much more important than he otherwise would have been.

These are the 'Resistors am I correct?! 🤔🤤

Why don't they arrest the real criminals instead? Isn't that their job?

If Macron has his way, he would guillotine les Gilet Jaunes.

镇压反对党,你麻痹的美国狗怎么能这么对待民主人士!笑死

Repression
