When he gets a little break from his almost non-stop warmongering over the Ukraine conflict, French President tries to do a bit of work on his country’s manifold problems – but unsurprisingly, he finds his government to be a mess.
The latest in an endless list of crises is the new report into the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood in France.
Expected for publication on Wednesday (21), it has been delayed after the report was leaked to conservative media.
IN the document, it is stated that the Muslim Brotherhood goes to great lengths to push its fundamentalist agenda across France and Europe.

Politico reported:
“A visibly angry Emmanuel Macron blasted his ministers during a defense cabinet meeting Wednesday after a botched release of a report into the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood in France, according to a high-ranking government official.
A second official, who, like others quoted here, was granted anonymity to speak candidly, said the French president accused his ministers generally for not coming up with adequate solutions to counter the threat posed by the Islamist group.”
But Macron’s anger seems directed to Interior Minister Bruno Retailleau.
“Many in the French government have attributed the leak to Retailleau, a hardline conservative whose popularity has skyrocketed since joining Macron’s minority government in September. Retailleau on Sunday scored a landslide win to become the next leader of the Les Républicains, the historically dominant French center-right party relegated to political purgatory after Macron’s 2017 election upended French politics. Early polling indicates he could be a serious contender in the 2027 presidential election were he to run.”
Retailleau has publicly accused the Muslim Brotherhood of ‘trying to tip French society into Sharia law’.
Sources tell POLITICO that Macron threw a ‘fit’ at the meeting.
“The bickering is another sign that the attention of those in power has moved away from Macron toward the wide-open presidential election set to take place in fewer than two years, especially with Marine Le Pen of the far-right National Rally’s prospects in turmoil after her embezzlement conviction. She has repeatedly professed her innocence and could be allowed to run if an appeals court rules in her favor next year.”
When will Retailleau break with Macron and start his campaign ahead of the presidential election? Seems like it will be soon.
