Today's 🇪🇺Parliament vote has transformed the government of the EU.
🇪🇺President Von der Leyen's party has abandoned the centrist governing majority. We now have a new coalition driving EU policy.
A huge victory for Meloni, Le Pen, Wilders & Orban

Fascism will not be defeated by trying to distinguish between "economics" or "kitchen tables" & bodily autonomy.
The ability of young women and girls, most of whom were poor, to say "no" to what is being presented as well-paid work seems relevant to both Epstein et al and economics.

No one really believes that Trump is not a rapist of numerous women and girls.
The Right has been redefining rape as miscegenation since Trump came down the escalator, ranting about "Mexican rapists" — while he was being accused of being a serial rapist & all-round creep.
Been a long decade.
