Occhio al "The Movement" of Salvini with Bannon
by

Salvini closed a crucial week of his political and government struggle with a bang: becoming the most important man in the newly formed sovereignist formation inspired by Steve Bannon, “The Movement”, can count on a European level. A counter-move probably much heavier than the same Facebook video that literally sent the center-left opposition into madness (but also some government allies...), in response to the judicial siege of the Genoa prosecutors (on the League's accounts) and Agrigento and Palermo (on the Diciotti question) who in recent days seem to have sounded the charge for the final attack on the Ministry of the Interior.
The announcement of Salvini's membership of the creation of Trump's former advisor must immediately be placed in an international and electoral context: Bannon is weaving the threads of a sovereignist aggregation across the Old Continent in view of the European elections in May. And in fact he is touring Europe in suitable company. Read More

"Sequestro di persona". The desire of the prosecutors to put Salvini on trial
by

The robes like Saviano. The Northern League member: go ahead and do Clash with Fico: «He wants to be the minister?»
Of Patricia Tagliaferri
The Agrigento Prosecutor's Office is evaluating whether to hypothesize the crime of kidnapping against unknown persons for the affair of 177 migrants held hostage by Diciotti in Catania.
But Salvini doesn't retreat an inch. On the contrary, counterattacks: «I'm here, I'm not unknown. My name is Matteo Salvini, I am Minister of the Interior and I am tired of seeing fake refugees in Italy. Landings have reduced by 32 thousand since I have been in the ministry, but it's not enough for me. The NGOs have understood that for sea taxi drivers it is no longer air. I have broad shoulders and I think I have the support of most Italians and legal immigrants. Investigate me, put me on trial".
Salvini speaks with a live Facebook broadcast, authorize i 29 children on board to go ashore, but the others don't, everyone inside, at least until Europe strikes a blow. Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte also aligns himself, calls the EU into question, accusing it of having "abandoned Italy to itself" and asking for a "strong and clear response". There is now an open conflict on the Diciotti case. Not only between Matteo Salvini and Roberto Saviano, who continue to argue heavily via Twitter, but also within the majority itself. Because on the one hand the Minister of the Interior does not show any concession, the President of the Chamber Roberto Fico distances himself. «Migrants must be able to disembark», tweet, effectively marking a fracture with the government ally, who suggests he limit himself to being president of the Chamber: «I am the Minister of the Interior», he replies. But the heaviest attacks on the number one of the Interior Ministry come from the author of Gomorrah, who addresses him as "Minister of Mala Vita". «He swore an oath on the Constitution – writes Saviano – and if he violates it in a blatant way as he is doing with the Diciotti ship it is no longer politics but subversion".

Of Sergio Rame
From pain to anger. The transition is immediate. Sui social network, and especially on Twitter, Anger is being vented at this time against the Benetton family.
Media lynching is, Indeed, started soon after the first statements by ministers Luigi Di Maio, Matteo Salvini and Danilo Toninelli against the company Motorways for Italy that, through Atlantia, it is in fact controlled by the Benettons. “Now you will wear a red shirt for the victims of Genoa?”, writes a challenging user Oliviero Toscani That last 7 July had demonstrated against government policies of closing the ports to boats loaded with illegal immigrants.
Several hundred tweets. One after the other. All popped up a few hours later the dramatic collapse of Morandi bridge on the A10 motorway. Social networks are unleashing themselves against the Benettons by posting, just as the death toll increases hour by hour, several shots that portray a smiling and complete family group. In other posts, a photomontage was published in which Toscani is seen holding a photograph of the collapsed bridge in his hand. “Now you will wear a red shirt for the victims of Genoa?”, a user writes to him referring to the demonstration of 7 last July in support of illegal immigrants who land on the Italian coasts.
