Show Notes
Marlon takes a solo look at who might support a Bruno Retailleau run for president in 2027. He’s flying high in the polls and in the regard of French billionaires who also want Le Pen to win.
And a quick look at the 2026 Paris election. The Socialists still have a good position, but they’re facing serious challenges from the radical left, and from Rachida Dati, the conservative LR Culture Minister who’s a long time opponent of the city’s current mayor, Anne Hidalgo.
All that and more on this edition of Flep24/7!
