“There's a big difference between France and the U.S. In the U.S., immigrants must work to live. In France, they're taken care of by public finances.

French politician and leader of the National Rally party, Marine Le Pen has shaped modern French politics through her advocacy for national sovereignty and opposition to mass immigration. Her career spans decades of public service, including roles as a member of the European Parliament and a candidate in multiple presidential elections.
