PARIS, France – In a move straight out of the radical environmentalist playbook, France’s so-called Constitutional Council just overturned the will of Parliament and the French people by annulling the suppression of ZFE ... “Low Emission Zones.” These are the hated climate lockdowns on wheels that ban older, affordable cars from entering major cities, fining working-class drivers into oblivion while elites glide around in their taxpayer-subsidized EVs. This decision, handed down on May 21, 2026, censored key parts of a law meant to simplify economic life and give French motorists a break. The “Sages” (the Wise Ones – what a joke) ruled that scrapping the ZFEs was a “legislative rider” with no direct link to the bill’s original purpose. Translation for Americans: unelected bureaucrats in robes just nullified a democratically passed reform because it didn’t fit their green agenda. Here’s where it gets truly infuriating for anyone who values democracy and competence. Unlike the U.S. Supreme Court, where justices are mostly top-tier legal minds with decades of rigorous experience, France’s Constitutional Council is stacked with political appointees – often loyal insiders with zero requirement to be actual jurists. No law degree needed. No judicial experience mandatory. Just political connections. These ZFE zones force drivers to buy expensive new vehicles or pay daily fines just to go to work, visit family, or run a business in cities like Paris, Lyon, or Marseille. It’s class warfare: wealthy urban greens virtue-signal while truckers, tradesmen, and rural commuters get screwed. Sound familiar? It’s the same insanity California and European elites are forcing on everyone else. This is exactly what the American left wants to do here: use unelected judges and bureaucratic « wise men » (Fauci, EPA, federal courts) to impose policies the people keep rejecting at the ballot box. https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2026/05/supreme-court-france-goes-full-eco-fascist-declares/ For years, Americans were told newer cars would be harder to steal. Smarter security and keyless entry were supposed to usher in a new era for car owners. Instead, car theft is becoming faster, quieter, and far more sophisticated. Federal prosecutors in Washington, D.C., recently charged six people tied to an international theft ring accused of stealing more than 100 vehicles in the D.C. area. It's how they did it that should make us all concerned: a simple handheld device that can reportedly program a new key fob directly into a vehicle’s system — sometimes in about a minute. No broken window, no smashed ignition, no dramatic Hollywood-style escape. Just unlock the vehicle, program a key, and drive away. https://www.theblaze.com/align/gone-in-60-seconds-how-high-tech-thieves-can-steal-your-car 
Supreme Court of France Goes Full Eco-Fascist: Declares War on Working-Class Drivers to Protect Sacred Climate Lockdowns:
...Current president? Richard Ferrand... Richard Ferrand has no university degree. ... A former journalist and insurance executive turned career politician, he has zero formal legal training — yet he now sits as President of France’s highest constitutional court.
...Former presidents even get lifetime seats – a bizarre holdover that lets retired politicians keep meddling.
