Italy's President was correct to refuse the resignation of the Prime Minister.

The anti-government forces within a society is what Bannon uses to build his personal wealth. They are unfit to govern.

Europe's parties that are died in the wool democracy that protects the people of the country from harm, economic downturn, and civil rights must join together to form governing bodies to end the threat of the anti-government parties.

Anti-government parties are just that, they want to dismantle government without regard to what it will do to the people. Now, these parties are finding a footing as they never have before because Bannon finds ways to promote them. Bannon is not interested in whether or not his candidates govern well with strong backgrounds, he is interested in money.

In the United States the 2016 and 2020 elections were about the anti-government movements that included White Supremacists/Nationals and even businesses that no longer wanted to pay taxes and were looking for all their money back when Trump passed tax reform.

When Trump was defeated in 2020 after turning loose a corona virus in the USA without regrets and then promoted death of citizens in advocating crackpot treatments, the election loss should be no surprise. A lot of people died because they were never educated well enough about the virus and how to live through it. Even today, Americans are still coping with variants that never ends.

Europe must look at the USA insurrection as a very real event intended to dismantle democracy and place someone, perhaps Trump, at the top of the government to rule as a king. The insurrection at the Capitol was a very real example of the anti-government element and who exactly was leading it. Bannon was riding to even greater fame amid those voters for knowing Trump's plans and able to foretell what was to happen on his podcasts and/or radio transmissions.

Bannon looked to Europe as an untouched field of money. He would go to Europe to find the disgruntled, the disenfranchised and provide for them his expertise as exampled by Trump. People in Europe, many for the first time, began to think differently about governance and provided him the monies he demanded for a change in regime shifting power, not to conservatives, but, to anti-government groups and people.

The re-election of Macron may have been something some French citizens did not want, but, they new their choices otherwise would result in a government that would turn against them and destroy their democracy. 

These are dangerous times, when citizens believe in the internet more than their human leaders. We also know through the investigation by Robert Muller the former FBI Director, that Russia votes in every country's election where freedom is a real commodity. You might almost say, that Bannon and Russia have a symbiotic relationship, each feeding off the uncertainty of people within a democracy. They created enough doubt so the people would lean into something new and different. The people wanted to try something odd, but, it might be something benevolent. That has to end.

The very countries where anti-government and extremist right wing candidates and elected representatives of the people find their power are susceptible to failure. The United States of America's governance is valued enough by the people so that the majority finally saw through the façade of the lies and reversed their beliefs in oddity and loose definitions of freedom. They stopped the dangerous course the election of 2016 put us on and put in office of the presidency a man with the most experience of any statesman in the country. In that, Americans knew the path of Joe Biden and believed in him.

I don't care if governance to form a coalition government seems messy and emotional, it must succeed. There is no doubt the voters within Europe are facing the same danger as the people of the USA. The elected officials cannot play with governance. There is too much on the line. They must govern and now. To do otherwise would be catastrophic.

Rome - Italy’s golden period of stability (click here) suddenly seemed on the familiar precipice of chaos on Thursday after Prime Minister Mario Draghi tendered his resignation in response to a revolt by anti-establishment populists within his broad national unity government.

But in a sign of how traumatic Mr. Draghi’s departure would be for Italy, the country’s president refused to accept his resignation, essentially freezing the political situation in place until next week, when Mr. Draghi will address Parliament.

The unexpected government crisis, and the theatrics and behind-the-scenes machinations, left Italy in a state of suspended animation and created a potential calamity for Europe as it seeks a united front against Russia’s aggression in Ukraine, and faces a wave of Covid infections and an energy crisis....
