Charles de Gaulle

Delaware.

Or I'm thinking of Charles de Gaulle crossing the Seine.

Who's the lone

survivor? No, there are more than one survivor of Titanic.

He'll show

up dressed like Charles de Gaulle.

Aaron Rodgers makes history, breaks his tie with Peyton Manning for third all-time in career passing touchdowns with 540.

Pittsburgh's defense grinds out a gritty international victory.

The central bloc,

that is to say the center right and the center left, which has governed this France since the after-De Gaulle period.

They say, look at what will happen if Le Pen is elected.

It will be horrible.

And the punishment for each offense includes possible fines, possible jail time, seizure of property, and being banned from the U.S. for life.

Just like Canada banned President Charles de Gaulle of France for life, after he interfered in Canadian politics back in 1967.

Yeah, those are some severe consequences.

And while the U.S. is issuing severe diplomatic warnings, we got to look at how Mark Carney is handling this threat of retaliation.

And in fact, you know, at the height of the Cold War, the French decided that they will not trust us.

You know, there was a famous meeting during the Berlin crisis between President Kennedy and President Charles de Gaulle of France, in which De Gaulle asked, will you trade New York to save Paris? And Kennedy diplomatically remained silent.

And this silence was enough for France to turbocharge the development of its own independent nuclear weapons that remained sovereign.

So I think what we're seeing now is there are two levels of this.

In 1968, the riots in France were really not that unlike our 1960s upheaval.

The country was having its baby boom, a tripling of the number of students in schools at that time, and President de Gaulle, who was a World War II hero to his generation, was in his 10th year in office, and as youth has wanted to do, they'd had enough of the old man, and they were flirting with new heroes like Mao and Che and Uncle Ho and all that.

And those 68 protests, you'll be shocked to know, got out of hand and there was looting and a mess and it spiraled out of control.

And more recently, you may remember something called the Yellow Vest protests of 2020.
