Imagine what America could accomplish if it had that much unity.
We can provide security, stability, and a high standard of living for everyone. To do this, we need to build the *Creative* *Society.* And it can be done in a peaceful and legal way.
The project is implemented by volunteers in 180 countries. Creative Society is supported by presidential candidate of the US, 2024 – Robby Wells.
Yes president Trump would have been re-elected.
We need pension and salary laws for the U.S.

Is Melissa Bell a legend or what?!! The tear as was nothing to her who has been meters away from rockets and grenades exploding. She never ceases to amaze me — oh, and she is articulate, informed and factual…just breath-taking.
Yes, literally breath taking. These reporters think they are the story.
She’ll be replaced by someone younger and even more clueless.
@Zelda Smith Man,you were SO close with the opening to your reply. “Yes,literally,breath taking,” is exactly the response that comes naturally to the original comment. Had you left it right there,you would’ve got a big,thumbs-up from me with laughing emojis. But,you lost me with your cynicism in the next two lines,albeit may hold true in future casts.
GO FRANCE GO. This is history in the making.
😡👍💪💣💥🔥
*HAPPY MAY DAY EVERYONE!*
Happy fill in the ethnic group for pandering month
😡😁😂💣💥🔥
“I realize how hard it is to breath and to talk with all that tear gas, so, talk to me Melissa!” LOL!!
Citizens, notice who the police fight for.
this is hardly a rukus and miles away from a fight… This is sutch a light touch no one is intimidated or diminished
“oh, we protest just about anything, and you eventually get used t the tear gas” – French person explaining to me why they protest.
✊️united we bargain, divided we beg✊️
The French appreciate a good protest.
It reminds me early stages of peaceful protests in Ukraine in 2014. Let’s hope that democracy going to be victorious again! 👍
Stand strong. Rage against the machine!!!
The people worked their whole lives for their pension. Don’t take it away from them. Mr. Macron, if you can afford to pay for French nuclear forces and aircraft carriers, you can maintain people’s pensions.
PEACE AND LOVE FOR ALL THE WORLDS ***AND UNIVERS ****AMEN
Now that theyve established a precedent, they’ll find excuses to keep increasing the age
Go, go, power to the citizens of France! 👍👍
For Americans watching: President Macron wanted to increase the retirement age. He was voted down democratically in parliament, so he used a special measure to override parliament and do it anyway. It was a test to see if he could stamp on democracy. And French people take democracy VERY seriously.
Vi…too bad america doesn’t take democracy serious.please try to hold on and fight.
I love that you have to explain it to the American audience. It just shows that the entire world is aware that the majority of Americans don’t really have any idea or seem to care very much about what’s happening in the rest of the world,as we’re all wrapped up in our own little bubble,over here.
They are also protesting against the WEF.
Retirement age raised from 62 to 64. If only we could be so lucky.
