(0554) Morning all, the morning after the eclipse the evening before. (0623)
5. Our brief eclipse
4. Attacks on churches
3. DAD at 1465
a) France 2027 Presidential Election: Marine Le Pen, a family above the rest. It felt like a family gathering, a sense reinforced by the presence of Marine’s older sister….
b) Adieu, Paris? Global financiers are wary of possible Le Pen presidency. [An interest anti-LePen article. An attempt for a Liz Truss 2.0? But MLP is a much stronger political figure.]
c) French newspapers file complaint against Google over AI summaries blamed for 38% traffic loss.
d) Europeans have become accustomed to one of the greatest achievements of the post-war era: food simply being there. We enter a supermarket expecting not merely potatoes, but several varieties.
e) The second wave is already forming. Thousands of Moroccans gathering near the Spanish border again. After what just happened in Ceuta… you’d think Spain would be ready. I’m not holding my breath.
2. Basketball, anyone?
