I follow the news about the Royal Family in French because I learn so many new words & expressions to describe horrible acts & people. I also recently came upon the verb foutre—a veritable treasure trove of slang phrases that would be very familiar to the ex-Prince Andrew if he had been born French.
Selon Jean des Cars, spécialiste des monarchies, qui vient de publier « La Malédiction des cadets », les turpitudes du frère de Charles III s’inscrivent dans une litanie de numéros deux catastrophiques dans les royautés.

As always with this administration, the cause of the out-of-scale disruption is—barely—legitimate.. A casual, clumsily-managed upending of other ppl's lives is more than a hallmark—it's defining. We saw J.D.Vance take an army of baggage, personnel, trucks, food just to go get booed at the Olympics.
