Massive protests have erupted across France following President Emmanuel Macron's appointment of a new Prime Minister. Demonstrators in cities like Paris and Montpellier are protesting austerity measures and defense spending. The "Block Everything" movement has led to highway obstructions and clashes with police, reminiscent of previous "Yellow Vest" and farmer protests involving manure sprayers.

The new directive targets public order threats and specifically mentions practitioners of polygamy as ineligible for legal status. The hosts note the lack of international media outrage compared to similar U.S. policies.
