Of Roberto Pecchioli Cicero to your domo is the title of a famous speech by Marcus Tullius Cicero, with which the great jurist requested the restitution of the land on which his house stood. It has remained proverbial as an expression of blame for those who defend an exclusively personal cause, it could be an accusation made against the author of these notes, who writes a praise of duties having worked as a customs official. At least we will give ourselves credit for mastering the subject, returned to the fore following American President Trump's decision to impose heavy duties on imports of solar panels from China and washing machines and other household appliances from South Korea.
It is our belief that the US measure is correct and re-establishes a principle of political supremacy, or the national interest, on naked globalizing reason. America first, America first, it seems equally right to us as a desirable "Italy first" from our rulers. Passing by, We remind you that the import of solar panels has led to various scams against the Italian state in recent years. The EU did not place tariffs on Chinese-made panels, who soon became monopolists on the market, and Italy granted reduced VAT to 10 percent for those who did not limit themselves to marketing the manufactured goods, but he took care of its installation or made direct use of it. This is just an anecdote, The concrete fact is that the imposition of duties is one of the most important expressions of a State's economic policy, ultimately, of its concrete sovereignty. Read More

One of the great tragedies of our time is the abandonment of the working class by the white liberal progressive left. It is no longer the working class that is the victim and Wall Street, the big banks and the capitalists to be the executioners. Today the perpetrator is the white working class and the victim is everyone else. Somehow, the working class, whose incomes and opportunities have shrunk for three decades, a class that has no politicians and has also been abandoned by the Democratic Party, he is the powerful exploiter who pushed aside the billionaires and dominated America in their place. How likely is the mistreated working class, branded by Hillary Clinton as “Trump's deplorables”, is the one that governs America? Read More

In the morning, The Press (and who if not) reveals “a US Senate report” that exposes Russia's interference in our upcoming elections 4 March. There is “suspicion, taken from an article in the Telegraph, that the Northern League also took money. «While there is no known evidence – the report continues – that M5S has received funds from sources linked to the Kremlin, an Italian security official told Business Insider that “some of our parties are vulnerable to infiltration. They don't have the experience, antibodies, to counter such formidable intelligence services".
The evening news broadcasts hint at these interferences by Moscow. And right after they show, in video, Macron's interference in our elections: dramatic and comically shameless. “Italy enters an electoral period and I would like to underline how happy I was to work with Gentiloni, its action in Italy, in Europa, with the presidency of the G7 and the UN Security Council it allowed us to start a new dynamic", said the Rothschild man. And fearing that I hadn't been clear: “It will be up to the Italian people to express themselves, but allow me to say that the EU has been very lucky to have Gentiloni in these last few months. My hope is that we can continue the work we have started".
It is democracy at the highest point of its maturity, the one that brings us to the elections. Where a neocon newspaper-megaphone can throw slander against the League and 5 position (“there is suspicion…”, “while there is no evidence…”), in the finest mainstream journalistic tradition, we all recognize that these are not called "fake news” nor interference. It is the new frontier of democracy, who is defending us with every means against "the populists" and "the sovereignists". NThey don't have votes, if the Party doesn't help them.In such a fully mature and developed democracy, it is inevitable that there are circumstances that, to the naive and crude populist, they may seem mysterious. Like the issue of “safe seats”, of "armored seats".
For example, title from a few days ago: “The Bonino intends 10 safe places, the Democratic Party offers it to him 4. The Radicals set the price for entering a coalition with the Dems". Or yesterday's: “Renzi gives safe seats to Casini and allies”, or for Dagospia: “Renzi entrusts Pierfurby with an armored PD seat”: “The one from Bologna, historic red stronghold. A Christian Democrat candidate with the left" in the aforementioned stronghold.
A real storm of questions arises for the naive. It shouldn't be the other way around? I am trying to say: they shouldn't be Bonino and Cappato, and even more so Casini, to bring "their" votes to the Democratic Party which needs them so much? Because instead they are the ones who need the votes of the Democratic Party, and Renzi "locks" them in polling stations where he knows they exist (Still?) PD voters who mechanically, if the Party orders it, a scolopendra or a centipede also votes?
From this question a thousand others arise: do you want to see that Bonino and Cappato, Tabacci and Casini, they have no voters? That, left to compete freely in the free democratic market, no one votes for them? But then: because Renzi absolutely wants them with him? What do they need them for??
The mind wanders into the arduous secrets of truly mature democracy. Casini, ensconced as he has been for decades in the Rome that matters, with a former father-in-law who is the richest property developer in Italy, at least he doesn't have his own safe and numerous enough "clientele" to not have to fear screwing, if it is exposed to popular suffrage? And Bonino and Cappato, so much media, omnipresent in the battles for "rights" welcomed by the press with emotional participation, so loved by advanced journalists, and even blessed by El Papa – well, they need the votes of their chosen companions?
If not, they would end up in nothing? They would return to private life? They would disappear from Parliament, dai talk shows, by "government alliances" paid for with posts and secretariats?
At this point, the naive person is tempted to address his fellow voters in Bologna directly, of Emilia, with their “safe seats”, and beg them: companions, free us from these here! It is in your power! Realize, no one votes for these, if not you! It would be so easy... Don't feel the harsh wind of political independence on your face, which enables the people to free themselves from their oppressors? Don't feel the thrill of voting for ransom instead of servitude? To make it work, once, democracy in the most basic sense? Put a hand on your conscience and vote according to your conscience! The compensation But here it is, as soon as the word "consciousness" was pronounced, the naive comes to his senses and sees how naive he was. Who, it is not a matter of opinion or "conscience". Who, we are in the exchange vote. You must compensate Casini because he took the Party out of trouble when Renzi put him at the head of the Banking Commission, and closed the investigation without your detriment. And not only that: the voters of the safe seats in Emilia know that they must make the Party and its system of power last as it is, because it is in their interest. The most concrete interest: otherwise they would lose us personally: money, jobs. Almost all of these "work" in the Coop Rosse system, that we have seen one billion orders for school cleaning secured, and the billion or so passes through the infamous houses to the detriment of earthquake victims, huge unpunished scandal. Without Renzi and Casini, without Boschi and Tabacci in government, these orders are taken by others, never be.
In short, comrades of the "safe seats", when one loses naivety he understands that the Coops are equivalent to the Mafia. They don't shoot? Right, because they are not opposed. They don't have police on their tail, policemen, prosecutors. On the contrary, they are covered. Only yesterday it became known that Renzi allowed his good friend De Benedetti a profit from 600 thousand euros, warning him in advance of the "reform" of the cooperative banks, and what the judiciary does? “Opens a file” yes, but not against the two cronies for insider trading, but rather against unknown persons for "violation of official secrecy": this crime news had been buried in the Commission's papers (of Casini), and an unknown person dared to reveal it! Scandal. At breakfast with Matteo, to dinner with Boschi.What then, right in parentheses: those 600 millions that Renzi made De Bendetti earn with the tip-off, must be added to the others 600 million than De Benedetti's company, Sorgenia, he borrowed from Montepaschi and never paid back: first of the large insolvent debtors and billionaires, who ruined the Sienese bank and left the bill to be paid to the small Trinariciuti.
I also have to correct myself: I said that the PD System doesn't shoot, because not opposed. Don't shoot, but when necessary, there are people capable of committing suicide to a non-silent employee. And only months later, when foreign newspapers talk about it, here's the PM who didn't find anything strange about the images: “The two men have already been identified, they will be resented".

Already. For the neo-mafia that "safe seats" everything is allowed. Even the Minister of Education without any education, put there only to pass gender in elementary school. To Lorenzin who delivered the little Italians to Glaxo, and denounces Codacon, which documented that thirteen of them died; and then he has the courage to write against Salvini: “ The League is playing for a few more votes on the health of Italians, on the health of our children. Italy must be vaccinated from the incompetent". They speak covering their mouths.She, on the other hand, is competent... Now with Bonino-Tabacci, the genetically modified monster, in your majority, with the Christian Democrat Casini, and tomorrow by allying yourself with Berlusconi as "Europe asks of us", you are remaking – or rather you have already perfected – The Center, the great swamp that he governed” at the time of the DC colluding with the PCI, divider, opaque, author of the "strategy of tension" because "anti-fascism" was the glue and alibi that legitimized the most criminal governments of an era. Because those who have power no longer even need an ideology, of a conscience. In short, the total Democratic Party, which is all because it occupies all positions, globalized liberalism and nihilistic individualism, complice del Big Pharma come del big business, Macron Europeanism…. Perfect for today's Italy painted by Marcello Veneziani: “older, except facelift and transplant: a little sluttier, a little more thief, culturally of the left, morally fake bigoted and also trans, civilly uncivilized, essentially paracula".
Alberto Bagnai the Century of Italy, but also the SEL website (find the differences), but also the Sardinian Union, but also the AGI, but also Milano Finanza, but also many others, they released a few days ago…
Gradually the evening news gave new news on the scandal of the houses for earthquake victims, I reassured myself: Tomorrow, you'll see, a flurry of arrests begin. It is the second winter that…

“The EU must undermine national homogeneity… migrant societies adapt more readily to those coming from a different cultural world… it is crucial for economic growth”. As I said in thearticle of 27 December, This is the central idea of Peter Sutherland, the man Bilderberg and Goldman Sachs that El Papa put at the head of his body in favor of mass migration.
Obviously it is also the idea of "Francesco"; like Boldrini, of Senator Manconi (“Let's welcome them all!”), of Gad Lerner and all the media-humanitarian leftists and the merciful neo-Catholics: the sense of belonging to a historical community to be safeguarded is a "selfish" attitude, and worse, an obstacle to increasing prosperity; the rejection of the mixing of populations and "cultures", and the unlimited opening of borders, as well as an illusory regressive reflex (because "there is no alternative" to globalization), produces closures and therefore decline.
