French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin said that authorities made nearly 200 arrests on Thursday while hundreds of thousands of fed-up workers protested in the streets of Paris and other cities.
Unofficial numbers tallied up to 800,000 people unwilling to the government’s illegal extension of the retirement age from 62 to 64. As a result, labor union leaders fear more violence is on the way.
“This is a response to the falsehoods expressed by the president and his incomprehensible stubbornness,” said CFDT Union Deputy Secretary General Marylise Leon in a statement. “The responsibility of this explosive situation lies not with the unions but with the government.”
Protesters targeted transportation depots, railways, and fuel refineries, which have led to fuel shortages in West and Southeast France.
Black Bloc protesters have caused damage in parts of Paris, making passage nearly impossible.
On Friday, Intellihub founder and editor-in-chief Shepard Ambellas Tweeted: “Epic! French riot police join common folk in protest.”
However, rumors exist that government officials staged many protests in controlled film shoots. Therefore, Lez Luthor will appear on the Shepard Ambellas Show on Friday to give an uncensored Intellihub special report.
The investigative journalist Tweeted the following message and images on Friday: “The Police did NOT join the demonstration (iv heard these ridiculous alt media rumours from folks not even in Paris); they did their jobs and cleared the path ahead. The Demonstration went down a straight road towards ‘Place De La Concorde.’”
“I decided to head to the endpoint and check out the place where I assumed ‘Rioting’ would take place, Place De La Concord.”
Please watch the Shepard Ambellas Show at 7 pm Eastern/6C on ATN.live. Lez Luthor will join us live from the scene in Paris, France, to report the absolute truth.
