🇫🇷 French farmers threaten 'chaos' over EU trade deal with South America's Mercosur

French farmers launched new protests Tuesday against a proposed deal between the EU and the four South American countries of the Mercosur trade bloc. The French government is strongly opposed to the deal but protesters want French President Emmanuel Macron to do more to help amid rising discontent over foreign competition.

The French government is leading resistance against ratification of the trade agreement with the Mercosur bloc of Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay that would create the world's largest free-trade zone.

The new wave of action comes after farmers across Europe, including France, mounted rolling protests last winter over a long list of burdens they say are squeezing revenue.

Dozens of farmers backed by Coordination Rurale (CR), a hard-line farming union, set up a roadblock on the A9 motorway at the southern town of Le Boulou, close to the border with Spain, blocking lorries but allowing cars through, an AFP journalist saw.

"We're going to block the A9, as well as fuel depots, ports and purchasing centres," said Serge Bousquet-Cassagne, a CR representative in the southwest.

"We want to cause chaos and food shortages," he said, adding that the blockade could last several days, pointing to "a river of fruit and vegetables arriving from Spain".

Farmers fear any agreement would open European Union markets to cheaper meat and produce from South American competitors, who are not forced to adhere to strict EU rules on pesticides, hormones, land use and environmental measures.

He said the agreement had been in the works for several decades and was "based on preconditions that are now obsolete".

📝: The EU has made agriculture very expensive with taxes on carbon emissions, on fuel, on diesel, it has encumbered farmers across the continent with strict rules on pesticides, hormones, GMOs, land use, waste management and more to ensure that groceries are of a high quality, nutritious and don't get people sick.

The adverse side effect of this is that groceries are very expensive compared to non-EU countries. When the EU liberalised trade with Ukraine, hundreds of thousand of farmers across the EU came out to protest unfair competition from Ukraine in the biggest mass unrest Europe has seen. If the Mercosur deal goes through, the farmers might just topple the EU as a whole.

At the same time, the EU must find a way to keep the prices of groceries low, while also doubling down on climate insanity and keep farmers and other unions calm.

Deteriorating

US / Iranian Conflict

Raising to AmCON 3 (Incident Probable)

Due to the following: deteriorating negotiations between the United States and Iran; the surge in the past 48 hours of “final stage” US military assets into the Middle East; vacating US personnel from bases in Syria; the “Fatwa” issued last summer by Iranian clerics in the Summer of 2025 calling Muslims around the world to rise up if Iran is attacked; the numerous reports of Iranians who have infiltrated the US southern border in recent years and the warnings of “sleeper cells” in the United States, AmRRON is raising the AmCON one level, to Level 3 (Incident Probable).

AmRRON Special Guidance and Instructions:

AmRRON will remain at AmCON 3 until further notice, and we will continuously be monitoring the situation. Additional changes to the AmCON level, and any special instructions or guidance, will be posted here, as well as through the AmRRON member Telegram Channel, the AmRRON Corps Z-Net, and the AmRRON Mobile Team App....

Satanic

If you’re a parent, this should make your stomach drop!

Every year, millions of families across America proudly display school photos of their children.
On refrigerators. In picture frames. Sent to grandparents and relatives across the country.

But here’s what most parents are never told…

Those school photos are taken by Lifetouch — the largest school photography company in America.
Lifetouch is owned by Shutterfly.
Shutterfly was acquired by Apollo Global Management.

And Apollo Global Management was co-founded by Leon Black — a name that appears in the Epstein files.

That means millions of children’s images are uploaded into databases every single year by a corporate structure tied to someone connected to Epstein.

Let that sink in!

Expensive

Reinsurance Group of America (RGA) exits its US healthcare business after a 40% price increase focused on profitability rather than market share.

I wonder what could be the cause?🤡
