Pablo Echenique thanked the members of Podemos in the regions who, as he wrote, had negotiated in good faith, while the Frente Amplio negotiated behind their backs with the PSOE for the Senate. He also accused progressive media of spreading lies and contributing to demoralizing them. He also thanked those who defended both his political project and, in his words, "the facts and reality" on social media. Echenique stated that Podemos could push for an independent project from the PSOE and without compromises, after Sumar had disintegrated in just three years. He argued that this autonomy would allow for denouncing the rearmament, the handing over of the CGPJ to the PP, the corruption of the PSOE, and, he said, the protection of the interests of rentiers. He also highlighted the joint candidacy of Irene Montero and Gabriel Rufián, whom he described as the left-wing leaders with the most recognition and appeal at that time. The Podemos leader anticipated that media pressure would increase and accused the media of publishing false polls that would attribute votes from other parties to the Frente Amplio. He stated that this coverage was due to the fear of a left that did not obey orders or accept agreements for a few senators. He urged his supporters to move forward and pointed out that on Sunday, November 29, voters could decide at the polls. #Podemos #Izquierda #Elecciones2023 (translated)

Julio Rodríguez stated that a lot of courage was needed to maintain coherence and perseverance in politics, and he recalled a phrase he attributed to Camus about how sometimes courage had no reward.

Javier Tebas Medrano said that the CSD was studying taking action on its own regarding some of his statements and requested that, before doing so, the complete text be read and precedents reviewed. He explained that he had criticized communication methods that he related to propaganda techniques used by Goebbels, but he had expressly excluded any ideological comparisons and any reference to the Madridista fanbase. As a precedent, Tebas recalled that Florentino Pérez stated on May 12, 2026, that he could have won 14 more leagues and that they had been robbed from him, and that, when talking about the Negreira case, he said that they were still the same referees. According to Tebas, those statements were published on Real Madrid's website and the referees had denounced them. He also noted that AS published on September 21 that the instructor proposed archiving the federal file for considering freedom of expression. Tebas asked what criterion was applied to some statements and not to others, and insisted that, although the channels and responsibilities could be different, institutional coherence should be required. He requested that the criteria be explained and applied independently, and asserted that freedom of expression should not depend on the surname of the speaker. #LibertadDeExpresión #Deportes #CSD (translated)

Antoine Léaument wrote that the RN reproached them for their coherence. He claimed that his camp did not change its program to please the ultra-rich, unlike the RN, and that it positioned itself on the side of the people rather than the privileges associated with money. https://t.co/pIRCuMt5ID #politique #justice #égalité (translated)

Jean-Luc Mélenchon wished Pope Leo XIV a prompt and solid recovery after his surgery. He felt that disagreements about worldviews should not overshadow the fact, in his opinion, that the pope had recognized secularism at the Élysée, while addressing the President of the Republic. Mélenchon stated that Leo XIV had provided a definition in line with European conventions on the public practice of religious rites, a definition that he claimed was rejected by all French right-wing parties. He considered that this recognition marked a break from Pope Pius X's opposition to the separation of Church and State, and that it ended a long period of confrontation between the Catholic Church and the Republic. The other issues, he believed, fell under legitimate controversies resolved by French laws. #Laïcité #République #PapeLéonXIV (translated)

Paul St-Pierre Plamondon recalled that four years ago, when the Parti Québécois had only three elected members at the swearing-in ceremony, he had told his friend Pascal Bérubé that one day the lily would bloom again. He indicated that 59 party members had now taken an oath to the Constitution of Quebec. He stated that the elected officials would serve all Quebecers, whether they voted for the Parti Québécois or for another party, and that they would focus on their interests, needs, and priorities rather than on the next election. He acknowledged that a government could make mistakes while promising to demonstrate authenticity and transparency. Plamondon said he wanted to gradually reduce the cost of living, regain control of public finances by addressing waste and bureaucracy, and freeze the salaries of elected officials and leaders of state-owned enterprises until a return to budgetary balance. He also promised to refocus the state on healthcare, education, the protection of the population, and culture, as well as to halve homelessness in Quebec. He presented these measures as a way to restore trust in the state and government before resuming the debate on Quebec's national future. He defended the idea that Quebec should adopt all its laws, negotiate on its behalf with its international partners, and manage its entire budget independently, and then concluded with a call for freedom and a free Quebec. #Québec #Politique #PartiQuébécois (translated)

Emmanuel Macron reminded that ten years ago, some believed it was impossible to produce electric batteries in Europe and thought the French automobile industry could not compete on a global scale. He stated that France now has four gigafactories, produces hundreds of thousands of electric vehicles, and manufactures the batteries for the R4 and R5 in the country. According to him, these advances support employment and the economy while contributing to climate goals. During the Paris Motor Show, he outlined three priorities: protecting the industry, accelerating electrification and reindustrialization, and strengthening European sovereignty. He presented the agreement made between the European Union and China as a step against unfair competition, particularly in hybrid vehicles, and indicated that more than 40% of vehicles sold in September were electric. He also emphasized the investments made as part of France 2030 and expressed his desire to continue efforts, especially in autonomous vehicles. Finally, Macron stated that France is moving forward with its German partners towards an agreement aimed at reconciling decarbonization, competitiveness, and protection of the industry. He defended the goal of producing vehicles and their components in Europe and called for continued decarbonization without deindustrialization. #Industrie #Électrique #Souveraineté (translated)

FRENCHRAPUS presented several claims that he said were made during the demonstration on October 17. They concerned, in particular, purchasing power, with increases in wages, an adjustment of the minimum wage, and a reduction in prices, as well as education and studies, with better conditions, more resources, and more places at university, a reform of scholarships, and a re-evaluation of Parcoursup and MonMaster.

Bonheur Muamba called on Lord Chris to demonstrate consistency and not distort the facts by supporting the regime. He wrote that public payments should, in his view, be based on certified documents and rigorous controls, including the verification of compliance lists, and not on mere online statements. He added that promoting national entrepreneurship did not justify the automatic validation of claims. He asserted that the rule of law desired by President Félix Tshisekedi also applied to the economy and that the Deputy Prime Minister of Economy, Daniel Mukoko Samba, was simply applying the law, which required an audit, verification, and compliance certification before any payment. Muamba also stated that equality before the law concerned all oil operators and urged his interlocutor to adhere to Congolese laws rather than what he termed social media blackmail. #RDC #Économie #Droit (translated)

To those who hoped to see the centre-right divided, today we respond with facts: we are united, cohesive, and determined to carry forward the commitments made to citizens.

Manu Jove supported the Deputy Secretary of State of the United States, Sarah Rogers, and argued that a joke or a meme on social media should not be taken to court because, in his opinion, it violated freedom of speech. He also deemed both the complaint against Gordo Dan from the Islamic Center and the one presented by DAIA against Rebord, which had already been dismissed, as inappropriate. Jove stated that Javier Milei rejected one complaint and at the time celebrated the other, attributing this difference to a logic of "friend-enemy" and to the lack of coherence of the president. #LibertadDeExpresión #RedesSociales #Política (translated)

At the same time, we introduced rules designed to favor the stability and parliamentary coherence of any government, regardless of its political color. Because whoever wins the elections must be able to govern, and whoever is elected must answer to the voters who elected them," Meloni added. #ReformaElectoral #GiorgiaMeloni #EleccionesAnticipadas (translated)
