Generation⋅s has also chosen Jean-Luc Mélenchon for the upcoming presidential elections! A clear, coherent, and courageous political decision by Generation⋅s. By choosing to start negotiations with La France Insoumise to support Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s candidacy, Generation⋅s has opted not to confine itself to a socialist primary and to face the political reality of the moment. This decision comes in a context where the far right continues to progress and strengthen its political and institutional foothold. In the face of this risk, the division of the left cannot become fatality. It must not also lead to a dilution of the convictions of those who advocate for a profound transformation of our social, ecological, and democratic model. This is also why this decision by Generation⋅s can be considered coherent: it prioritizes the unification of the left willing to break from liberal policies around a clearly identified project, rather than the multiplication of candidacies and competing approaches. In this configuration, Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s candidacy appears, for those who defend this political line, as the only one today able to widely unify the left of rupture and offer an alternative to both liberalism and the far right. The danger would be to allow the divisions of the left to further open space for the far right, even as some convergences can be observed between certain right-wing forces and the far right. In light of this situation, building a solid, independent, and popular left alternative is more necessary than ever. So let us commend the decision of Generation⋅s. It marks a choice of political coherence: uniting the left forces that want to break from liberal policies, defend social and ecological gains, and construct a true alternative against the far right. The question is no longer about how to organize yet another primary. It is about how to build, right now, the popular unity capable of carrying a transformative left. (translated)

The cheap provocateur Gabriel Attal corrects his lie this evening. All day he has left doubt hanging to instill fear and fan the flames. His brief tenure in the Ministry of National Education was a fraud. As is his pseudo-presidential campaign now. (translated)

I met Javier Milei! To all our followers, know that he thanks us for the cultural battle we are fighting in France! In addition to this handshake that obviously filled me with joy, here are the key points I take away from his speech in Paris: To reassure investors about the stability of Argentina, he explained at length his optimism for the presidential election in October 2027: "We have made the hardest effort before asking for the trust of voters next year. If we repeat the success of last year's legislative elections, we will pass in the first round. And finally have a majority in both chambers of Parliament. Imagine what we can do with a parliament on our side, given that we made the biggest reform in history with the entire state apparatus against us. Get ready. Because you are going to witness a dazzling miracle! We have fulfilled all our campaign promises by the mid-term. Now we are tackling the so-called 'impossible' reforms. We will not return to the economic shamanism worthy of the USSR of the Peronist left. Because 70% of Argentines have understood and do not want to go back. In 2023 we had a bunch of promises, today we have a bunch of facts, figures, and successes. We are prepared for all attempts at destabilization. Political and economic. We are very optimistic. We play better than them and we will win! The Argentines choose the path of prosperity and definitively abandon that of decay. If we win, interest rates will fall, capital will accumulate, and productivity will increase very quickly. This will lead to a huge rise in real wages, a drop in poverty, and the dream of a great Argentina will become more tangible every day. We will have the greatest growth in the West. We have firsthand experienced socialist collapse. Europe is following the same path today. Argentina is now going the other way, and those who invest there now will be the big winners. So come be part of this Argentine revolution and VIVA LA LIBERTAD CARAJO!" (translated)
