President Emmanuel Macron gets re-elected in the presidential election against Marine Le Pen in France. Polls show the centrist president Macron was not mainly voted in for his popularity but more out of fear of far-right candidate Le Pen.

Macron’s win triggered relief among allies that the nuclear-armed power won’t abruptly shift course in the midst of the war in Ukraine from European Union and Nato efforts to punish and contain Russia’s military expansionism. The second five-year term for the 44-year-old centrist spared France and Europe from the seismic upheaval of having populist Le Pen at the helm."

After two decades on local TV, she's the celebrity candidate—and she's using that for all it's worth. Her riffs on the hot topics of the day from COVID-19 to China to Critical Race Theory are Trump-like and are received with approval by his most devoted followers. On paper, she looks like the candidate to watch, the one who Trump might anoint as his choice to occupy the governor's mansion after the next election. Except it's not certain she's authentic and that everything she is saying now differs substantially from things she's said in the past, on the air."
