Reconnaissance de l’Etat de Palestine : selon Philippe Karsenty, porte-parole du comité «Trump-France», la décision d’Emmanuel Macron provoque «la colère de Washington», dans #LaMatinalepic.twitter.com/tzBVQ58RjG
Suite à son passage à La Matinale pour relater les réactions à chaud des membres de l'administration Trump après la decision de Macron de reconnaître un État palestinien, Philippe Karsenty est resté au QG de CNews pour apparaître dans L'Heure des Pros. Alors qu'il apparaît dès la minute 2h36, il intervient notamment à la minute 10h32-12h32 et à la minute 27h03-29h03. "Reconnaissance
de l’Etat de Palestine : selon Philippe Karsenty, porte-parole du
comité «Trump-France», la décision d’Emmanuel Macron provoque «la colère
de Washington», dans #LaMatinale"
"La decision d'Emmanuel Macron est le nom de la frustration de n'être plus rien en France, il ne peut faire qu'exister à l'extérieur" dit-il. En effet, 78% de la population française est contre la reconnaissance immédiate de la Palestine. "C'est la frustration," poursuit le porte-parole du Comité Trump France, "mais c'est aussi la soumission, mais c'est aussi la capitulation. Et le mot que j'ai entendu à Washington, le nom que j'ai entendu à Washington de plusieurs interlocuteurs, c'est «Est-ce que Emmanuel Macron est le nouveau Maréchal Pétain?»"
C'était la deuxième fois en deux jours que Philippe Karsenty apparaissait sur CNews. Un jour auparavant, il était déjà invité sur le plateau Cnews de 180 Minutes Info pour aborder le scandale concernant l'expulsion des quelques 50 étudiants juifs français (et le placage au sol de leur directrice par la Guarda Civil) d'un vol Vueling en Espagne (7:11-22h40 & 46:23-1:03:42 & 1:25:37-1:40:08), intervenant sérieusement à la minute 11h33, à la minute 20h53, et à la minute 58h40 — "d'après les retours, [il y a] dit des choses inédites et importantes."
(Philippe Karsenty reste encore plus d'une heure sur le plateau pour aborder plusieurs autres sujets; si vous voulez connaître les desserts préférés du porte-parole du Comité Trump France, dirigez-vous à la minute 6h33.)
The article on the Main Talking Points of the Latest Epstein Affair follows reports on the (often dramatic) guest appearances of three Paris-based Republicans on French TV and starts below the YouTube video.

On July 19 (a day after debating Democrats Abroad member Amy Porter on FranceInfoTV), Nicolas Conquer was invited to the BFMTV channel at 8:30 PM (4:10-18:48) to discuss the latest Epstein scandal. The ROF spokesman pointed out that if Donald Trump had known, or suspected, that his name was on the Epstein list, he would obviously never have made revealing the list a feature of his campaign to attract more voters… (This, by the way, is reminiscent of the Iraq war hysteria two decades ago: had Bush (and Blair) truly known that there were no WMD in Iraq, is it credible to believe they would have lied about the fact, using said lie to start a conflict against Saddam Hussein which they must have known would be uncovered following the allies' inevitable victory?) "Nicolas sets Laurence Haïm, and BFM Trump haters trying to claim that the GOP is broken, straight," writes Paul Reen, "with facts on the Trump-Epstein hysteria (they don’t listen needless to say)."
Three days later, Nicolas Conquer appeared on BFMTV, for a discussion on Tulsi’s release of Obama files. Noting that the TV channel is playing the 1992 videos in a loop and seems "to be competing with LCI and others on who can play it the most often," ROF's Paul Reen comments: "Typical massive anti-trump bias for calling out 'saint' Obama who can do no harm. Trump called 'Obama obsessed', jealous, racist, a threat to democracy, even a pedo. Scandalous on the part of BFM. How dare he forward a funny AI video on Obama!! Nicolas did great remaining calm and firing facts, despite being remote and given far less time than others"

"Is Epstein's Ghost Trump's Nightmare?" Later that evening (of July 19th), John Lowe was a guest at another TV Channel, TF1's LCI
channel at 22:30 PM (17:41-38:28). "In the face of 5-6 Trump
haters implying that he’s probably a pedo," comments Paul Reen, ROF's vice-president (a lawyer by trade) "did a good
job trying to explain Pam Bondi’s reluctance to publicize info from a
legal standpoint. Images from 1992 on loop of course" — i.e., 13 years before
Epstein's very first indictment.

On July 25, Erik Svane was a guest on BFMTV's BFM Soir at 11:35 PM (1:33:48-1:48:33)
Notice how the French absolutely do not want to hear any mention of Democrat sins in the Epstein affair, especially the damning fact that Jeffrey Epstein had a painting of an American man dressed as as a woman. Given the fact that the blue dress he is wearing in the painting belonged to Monica Lewinsky, it is clear that the POTUS is not Donald Trump but Bill Clinton. Notice how the presenter keeps interrupting the ROF spokesman — "let's get back to the issue at hand!" — and, at the end, as he tries to make a final point, even starts wagging her fingers at him!

Here are what I consider the main talking points of the Epstein
affair.
The Main Talking Points of the Latest Epstein Affair
Besides the fact that the (relatively rare) photos of Donald Trump with
Jeffrey Epstein were taken in the 1990s, before the latter's very first
indictment (2005) — while MSM channels seem to be playing a 1992 video in a loop in what looks like a competition on who can play it the most often — Trump cut ties with him before said indictment.
In that perspective, there are far more photos of Epstein with such luminaries as Bill Clinton. Perhaps the
most damning fact in favor of Trump that should invariably be mentioned
in any debate is that if Jeffrey Epstein had a painting of an American VIP on a wall of his Manhattan mansion, it wasn't that of Donald Trump. Indeed, given
the fact that the blue dress that the VIP — dressed as, wearing make-up as, and seductively posing as a woman — is wearing in the painting is supposed to be the one that once belonged to
Monica Lewinsky (as are the VIP's shoes), it is clear that the POTUS in question is Bill
Clinton.
There you have it. As it is highly visual, the Clinton painting is the main talking point to throw back in the face of the Democrats, and if you have no time for bringing up more arguments to make a stronger case, that is the single most important one to bring up. Again, notice how, in the video above, when I try to mention such sins on the Democrats' side (5:44 & 6:11), the TV host immediately starts interrupting me…
The general principle here is that in any interview, the media will be hard-bent on their (partisan) questions focusing on following the Democrats' "narrative," but at all times, you must think outside the box. Instead of directly answering a question about, say, the alleged birthday card of 45/47, point out the numerous times that 42 took the Pussy Express. This, indeed, explains why leftists (be they part of the media or politicians or university professors or what have you) so rarely want to debate people who are leaning right.
Here is another example of thinking outside the box. The question is not why the Donald Trump
administration is not releasing information about Jeffrey Epstein — as
Democrats are now clamoring for.
The more obvious question — certainly in view of the fact that the media (like the Dems, but we are being redundant, aren't we?) are posing as honorable truth-seekers with the purest of motivations —is, why didn’t the Joe Biden administration release the Epstein dossier for the four years that he was at the
pinnacle of the government? And, indeed, in that perspective, why didn't Democrats and MSM journalists (but I repeat myself) clamor loudly for
the president — i.e., for a member of their own party — to do so while the
child-hair-sniffer (another feature more associated with the Epstein crowd) was in the White House?
And if any Democrats had found Donald Trump‘s name on any list during
their time in power, isn’t it obvious — after ten years of innumerable
bogus indictments and sham lawsuits against "the existential threat to democracy" — that they would have released that information?
Then there is Brad Edwards
(4:54-6:46), the attorney who represented 70 Epstein victims as he
spent a decade on the case, who testified that in 2009, Trump was "the
only person who picked up the phone and said, 'Let's just talk, I will
give you as much time as you want, I will tell you what you need to
know' and was very helpful in the information that he gave"…
Do you know the name of Marcwayne Mullin?
Everybody should have the name of the Senator from the Sooner State on their lips.
Like with the French (notably, as we have seen, on their TV shows), the
Epstein affair is all that America’s Democrats are talking about:
But:
As it turns out, when the Oklahoma Republican called for the release of
all files regarding this subject, it turned out to that democrats voted
AGAINST it: “apparently, [Democrat] lawmakers were just joshing about
that whole “transparency” thing. They didn’t really want the White House
to release the documents. Otherwise, they would have fully supported
Mullins’ resolution.”
…
it’s painfully obvious what’s going on. The media’s desperate attempts
to link Trump to Epstein aren’t based on facts—they’re based on fear.
Fear of what might happen if the real truth about Epstein’s client list
ever comes to light. Fear of who might be exposed. Fear that the public
will finally see just how deep the rot goes—and that it overwhelmingly
runs through their side of the aisle.
So instead, they keep
recycling half-baked stories, grasping at birthday cards and blurry
associations, hoping something—anything—will stick to Trump.
But
it won’t. Because the facts are clear: Trump cut ties with Epstein long
before it was politically convenient. Meanwhile, powerful Democrats
wined and dined with him for years. That’s the story the media refuses
to tell—and that’s exactly why they’re working overtime to distract
you.
Do not allow the French media's (or the
American media's) obsession with the Epstein scandal hide the fact that
the main reason the Democrats are so obsessed with it is that it is a distraction
from what is the real scandal right now:
Tulsi Gabbard‘s unearthing of the Russia hoax, in which none other than
Barack Obama himself got just about everybody in his entourage and in
the government to lie in 2016-2017 about the bogus theory (begun,
indeed, by none other than themselves) of Donald Trump‘s being an agent
of the Kremlin. This, indeed, is far far worse than the Watergate
scandal of 50 years ago…
