the incredible fate of Joe Biden

 ",

The Obs

, in One, wonders if he can " 

heal America

 " and

La Croix L'Hebdo

how he can " 

reconcile

 " it.

A question, answers but also and above all the same remark, asked as well by magazines such as

Le Point

or

La Croix L'Hebdo

 : the causes of the election of Donald Trump four years ago are still there.

Le Point thus underlines that the defeat of the latter " 

leaves intact the causes which made his election possible: the break-up and the impoverishment of the middle classes, the explosion of inequalities, the rise of insecurity and violence

 ".

So ?

So, like many songs of the liberal press in the world, replays Point this week the same broken record, preaching the need to " 

rebuild a capitalism of production rather than financial rent

, directed

Le Point

a inclusive society, a democracy based on a community of citizens sharing the same values ​​and the same project.

A twist in business news this week.

Ziad Takieddine, main accuser of Nicolas Sarkozy, clears the former French president:

He changed his version, this sulphurous businessman met by

Paris Match

in Beirut, in his native Lebanon where he took shelter from the French justice which sentenced him last June to five years in prison. .

And to drive the point home, this delinquent on the run also gave an interview to BFMTV.

What he said to the judges, before whom, under oath, he accused Nicolas Sarkozy in the case of the alleged Libyan financing of the latter's electoral campaign during the 2007 presidential election, was only " 

what the judges wanted to hear,

 ”Ziad Takieddine told

Match

.

Now, the one nicknamed Zigzag Takieddine, as his versions of the affair are numerous and contradictory, tells

Paris Match

that “ 

Nicolas Sarkozy did not receive the 5 million euros from me.

There was never any money for his campaign.

All I did was give 5 million

(dollars)

in cash to Claude Guéant at home, at home

(…)

It was in 2005

 ”.

As the weekly notes, " 

at this stage, we went from a delivery in 2007 to a payment in 2005 and euros have become dollars

 ."

Nicolas Sarkozy, it was to be expected, reacted immediately.

The truth is on the way

 ", rejoiced the former president " 

who treated a few days ago Takieddine of

" patented moron "

and

" liar "", recalls Mediapart, stressing also that Paris Match is the " 

owned by the Lagardère group of which Nicolas Sarkozy is a member of the supervisory board

 ”.

This online newspaper also reveals

the content of several “ 

limpid and explicit

 ” emails, states Mediapart, emails related to this case and proving, according to this site, that “ 

Nicolas Sarkozy lied concerning the reality of his relationship with his shadow man Thierry Gaubert, who in 2006 received half a million euros from an offshore account from the Gaddafi regime before withdrawing part of it in cash in France

 ”.

Cantor of hydroxichloroquine, Professor Didier Raoult again has a problem with his peers

:

It is

Paris Match

who revealed it, the Society of infectious pathology lodges a complaint for " 

breach of the duty of brotherhood and use of non-validated treatments

 ".

According to this magazine, “ 

this week, Didier Raoult received a registered letter from the departmental council of the Order of Physicians telling him that the complaint would be forwarded to the disciplinary chamber.

This extremely rare and unthinkable decision two months ago can lead to a delisting,

 ”

warns

Paris Match
