The La France Insoumise leader made the quip while pushing for a parliamentary probe into Epstein's French ties, including uninvestigated emails held by authorities. Critics from Interior Minister Laurent Nuñez to Socialist senator Laurence Rossignol condemned it as antisemitic, playing on Jewish name stereotypes. Mélenchon dismissed the backlash as a diversion from accountability demands, with LFI calling it a political cabal amid left-wing rifts.

Key Takeaway

At a Lyon rally, Jean-Luc Mélenchon mocked the pronunciation of Jeffrey Epstein's name, twisting it into 'Epstine' and 'Frankenstine' for laughs from supporters.

In February 2025, Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, leading the Department of Government Efficiency, slashed USAID contracts worth tens of billions, paused operations, and cut 1,600 staff, folding much into the State Department. Critics cite modeled estimates of millions of deaths by 2030 from halted aid like vaccines and food, with one post by Mohamad Safa drawing 22,000 likes by comparing the toll to Gaza's 45,000 and Ukraine's 600 child deaths. Defenders call USAID wasteful, with only 10-30 cents per dollar reaching recipients, while courts have ruled parts of the cuts unconstitutional and DOGE has since disbanded.

Key Takeaway

One year after Elon Musk called USAID cuts feeding the agency into a 'woodchipper,' a post claims those moves have killed more children than in Gaza and Ukraine combined.

On the New Statesman podcast, Dominic Sandbrook argued that 1950s and 1960s politicians like Harold Macmillan gained empathy from evening reads of 19th-century fiction, such as Trollope, unlike today's screen-filled nights. He suggested this 'hinterland' produced better leaders amid a shrill political landscape, a view echoed by Aaron Bastani and Michael Gove. Critics pointed to era flaws like the Suez Crisis and Soviet spies, questioning if reading alone ensured strong governance. The clip revives calls for leaders with depth beyond briefs.

Key Takeaway

Imagine prime ministers unwinding with Anthony Trollope novels instead of policy briefs or social media. Historian Dominic Sandbrook misses that era's reflective leaders.

Pieter Garicano argues in Works in Progress Magazine that Europe's rigid dismissal protections—like 62 months' salary in Spain or €167,000 per worker for Opel's 2014 factory closure—deter firms from high-stakes bets in EVs, AI, or space tech. While Volkswagen outspends U.S. rivals on R&D, it sticks to safe improvements rather than breakthroughs, and economists link this to Europe's lag in AI chips and mRNA vaccines. Critics cite studies showing protections can spur innovation, plus successes in flexicurity models like Denmark's, but many call for reforms to boost dynamism without sacrificing social stability.

Key Takeaway

Europe boasts educated workers and solid infrastructure, yet incomes have fallen 20 percent behind U.S. levels since 2000. A new article pins the gap on strict firing rules that make bold risks too costly for companies.
