The stars may be aligning in France as they did in America.

Fillon, a right-center Presidential candidate, is the main opposition to Le Pen, and his campaign pretty much just died totally.

Investigators are searching the French lower house of parliament as part of a probe into allegations that the wife of presidential candidate Francois Fillon had a “fake job”, a parliamentary source said on Tuesday. The raid is not taking place in Fillon’s office, a Reuters reporter witnessed, while the source said it was likely taking place in the parliament’s administrative offices. France’s financial prosecutor’s office opened an investigation last week after the satirical weekly Le Canard Enchaine reported that Penelope Fillon had been paid 500,000 euros ($535,050) from state funds as a parliamentary assistant to her husband and his successor, but that it could find no evidence that she had actually done any work.

Politicians do recover from these sorts of scandals, but not quickly enough.

He’s pretty much screwed.

And the socialists are in complete disarray.

But still – Steve Banon needs to make a trip to France.

The French election is absolutely the most important event of 2017. I mean, at least after the Trump inauguration.

The election is scheduled for April 23rd.
