Thousands of supporters gathered in Paris for a rally led by Marine Le Pen's party, the National Rally, in response to her conviction for embezzling public funds. The rally, which had all the markings of a campaign rally, was a show of populist defiance aimed at France's institutions, with chants of "Marine Présidente!" and "They won’t steal 2027 from us." The reaction to Le Pen's conviction has been sharply divided, with many outside the party seeing it as legitimate accountability, while National Rally supporters denounce the ruling as politically motivated and attempt to convince voters that the legal system itself can't be trusted. This event took place on 04/06/2025 at the following location: Paris, France.
