A French court sentenced former President Nicolas Sarkozy to three years in prison for corruption and influence peddling, but suspended two years of the sentence. He was found guilty of trying to illegally obtain information from a senior magistrate in 2014 about an ongoing investigation into his campaign finances. CNN's John Vause discusses the sentencing with European Affairs Commentator Dominic Thomas. #CNN #News
Former French president sentenced to prison
Heres hoping it sets a precedent for sending ex presidents to prison.
Chinese News Network CNN for Chinese by China can cry me a river, if they think President Trump is going to prison, WON’T HAPPEN ! 🤯
@Don Nwzad Yeah, don’t want to set a precedent for the rich to be prosecuted for their crimes, eh?
Well done on getting the CNN TLA wrong. Im sure you’re immensely proud of yourself. I’d give you a lollipop, but I recently visited some fox news videos and handed them all out to the dullards posting there.
Ttis yes

‘Prison’ for him is one year staying in his mansion while wearing an ankle bracelet, during an era where most of us have to stay home anyway. It’s hardly a punishment.
Hey USA: Follow this example.
@SPΛϾΞ ЯΛϾΞЯ sympa, avant je rêvais d’aller aux states depuis Trump plus tellement 😉 mon émission préférée c’est last week tonight, cela m’a ouvert les yeux sur beaucoup de problèmes que l’on ne voit jamais dans les films d’Hollywood . Et puis depuis 2016 je regarde les chaînes d’actu fox, CNN etc et je vois comment enlever la fairness doctrine a été la pire chose qui pouvait arriver à une démocratie. C’est abusé les mensonges que l’on entend a la télé américaine, quand je regarde Tucker , hannity , gutfeld et compagnie je peux les fact checker en temps réel tellement leurs mensonges sont flagrant et pourtant presque 50% des américains les croient et pense regarder des infos et pas des commentateurs complètement biaisé . Ça arrive en France aussi hélas comme d’habitude on suis l’exemple Americain . Tu fais quoi aux states ? Et où ?
@Kwuti *je suis entraineur d’une equipe de football (soccer) j’habite a costa mesa en californie je suis nee et j’ai grandi a lyon ma femme est americaine , je connais tres bien fox news et leur propagande c’est que des fake news pour effrayer la droite* // je suis content que tu sois lucide et que tu prend fox news au second degre ////t’habite ou ? tu fais quoi dans cette vie ? //////

@Daniel D we removed the few that we found. The government is still full of them, and their existence in our government doesn’t require your belief, lmao
@Daniel D Brennan is a known Marxist. Obama appointee. The government is still full of people just like him. Again, your belief is not required for their existence. May I suggest crying about it? Lmao
Here comes the American counterpart.
@natalie garavagno *je suis entraineur d’une equipe de football (soccer) j’habite a costa mesa en californie, je suis ne a bruxelles et j’ai grandi a lyon ….// t’habite ou exactement? la nicoise ravi de discuter avec toi!*

We need to start making lists of all politicians who commit treason!
Proof of media only tells you what they want. Look at this video how they don’t even say anything about this blatantly false statement. If you still only watch mainstream news you are being fooled.

@Joel Ortiz another fake story from dump land?
@carey jernigan I don’t post fake stories. I don’t have evidence for everything I post. I don’t know which one you’re looking at but look at my channel and you’ll see the top four videos are real and truthful. You just say that cuz you don’t have any evidence to refute what I’m saying. You’re not everything I post is from a senate hearing or one of your mainstream media I don’t even tell the truth
*FRENCH GUY HERE , BONJOUR LES AMericains>>> SARKOZY IS THE EQUIVALENT OF A REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT IN FRANCE (like trump or nixon) HE IS SENTENCED TO ONE YEAR IN HOUSE ARREST(can’t leave his house) AND TWO YEARS SUSPENDED BUT HE CAN APPEAL THE DECISION and he got two other trials coming up in march and december so stay tuned*

@william dowden yet you provide no proof just an allegation – “trust me because I said so”. No.
You’re fake news and an embarrassment.

@Camel toe in chief that still isn’t a citation for anything. I genuinely would like to see them…….
@marc bergevin why don’t you say he is an honest person.
America: we can’t hold ex leaders accountable..
France: hold my le beer
@My True Crime Library The only parts i understood were: “American, manipulator, ex-president, & idiot.” Good enough.
@Angael Tartar Rose you did good 👍
🤣🤣👍🏼🤣🤣
Hold my bière.
@My True Crime Library let’s hope Con-ald meets the same fate
We can give Trump a French boyfriend.
@Mr. White He is next little donnie babbie friend.
@Lloyd Christmas your sister is on drugs. Do any of you liberals have the balls to say anything you say on the internet in real life?
@Mr. White He next bucko/
No, Putin will not be pleased!!!!
@Beachside does TDS make TDS sufferers repeat things? I think the Food Channel just posted a video……maybe make a Trump comment on there, too? “Bucko”? Haven’t heard that one in decades……..

Hello
@canadian aviator Biden 2024!
Those are good news, because once it’s shown that a major European country can send a former head of state to jail, more American judges may be encouraged to do the same here… Let’s hope for the best!
He will never go to jail…
Biden was attacked by passers-by https://youtu.be/QHtqhvoFenI omg!!
Hopefully !
@Andrea B Trump has involved/ implicated everyone in Georgia in his extortion attempt who had the authority to give him a pardon. Whoops. So, yes, these charges of vote extortion will stick.

The next time an American crack jokes about France “surrendering”, perhaps they should be reminded of this; they didn’t surrender to their corrupt leader like USA did with Trump and the Republican party….
@renideo and continued losing
@The Island Division lol Weekend at Bernie’s too.
No you are wrong in France they always surrender to their corrupt leader. It’s only communication.
Maybe there are prosecuted by the justice but they are never condemned or they appeal the decision…
@Perkelenaattori I’m French and I agree with you , and what’s funny is this whole. Hate France , from the Right in the US came after the French said your war in Iraq is total BS and there is no way we’re going there ( 5000 French troops were in Afghanistan ) sand the Right went Nuts , so on one hand they trash the same military that they are mad they are not going with them in Iraq, if the French army is so bad , why were they so mad

America, are you watching?

America is emptying its second pint of French Vanilla Ice cream, so no
America should learn a thing or two from France
@ranna neumann More like France is naive and will be a Muslim ran country when the muslims choose when they want to take it!
@Joe Dementia Kid SmellDo you actually believe all that old trumpaganda???? Brainwashed any?
@Joe Dementia Kid Smell Watch the History without France the US you will never have won the Independence War in 1781

Hmm. So presidents aren’t above the law… Could’ve fooled me..
Everyone everywhere is corrupt. Everybody is into something.
This was in France, not the USA
@ranna neumann when did I say it was in the US?
France is showing the US how to do it? Come on now!
And i hope they take the lead as or world leader.
France influenced our Founding Fathers political philosophy before the American revolution , Voltaire, Raynal, Montesquie…..They stood by our side against British colonial rule with a Friendship Treaty. Yes, they are showing us how it’s done. No one is above the law.
Don’t forget when we warned you about Iraq and you guys went ahead with the whole Freedom Fries think
Ttis yes
https://youtu.be/zFJ2AN_CZH8

Wait!! Being condemned and going to jail are two different things. In France the politicians never go to jail. France is not really a good example unfortunately…
Oh an ankle bracelet. So bad. Meanwhile, half of america is behind bars for trees
@hector herbert you believe spin.. sad.
none of what you said was actually true.
@David Ashton wow, lmao, another one.. i am not even a christian. I watched the moon landing live when it was televised in 69…. and the flat earth psyop has been around since then too, even before. you suck at assessing people. as much as all your leftist comrades do in this thread.
@David Ashton c’est toi le connard.
@Jeany Luisa yes these are dull grey days and only getting darker with the comrade pinko in chief bending over for Xi to plant one in there… laugh now because you will be crying very soon. commie.
@Angael Tartar Rose untrue.
This is how no one above the law looks like. Watch and learn America.
@Easy Money Your liberal media will not mention the Bi-Dunce family, but they already have 3 criminal investigations, all leading back to “The Big Guy” — and he just took office in January 🤣
@Stephen Kershaw lmao convicted of what? you must be new to how rich people do things in this country. The absolute worst possible scenario will be if he settles. He will toss whoever a couple bucks and go on his way. Then you soft liberals will cry about it….mark my words lol.
@Mike Ditka by the way GRAND JURY CRIMINAL INDICTMENTS aren’t settled ya moron. One can only settle in civil matters….dementia donny is going down and there’s nothing you can do about it creampuff
@Stephen Kershaw who said a grand jury indictment was handed down? LMFAO….and sorry soy boy…you can stop projecting now…everyone knows dementia boy is biden. Now do yourself a favor and go lay down, your TDS levels are spiking again.

If only our courts had the same integrity!!!! Wishful thinking.
