The greatest political con act of all time?
Given the fact that Candace Owens has received much outrage
at her suggestion (and lost her job over the kerfuffle that followed) that Brigitte Macron, the wife of President Emanuel Macron, is in fact a man who transitioned into a "woman," it might serve our readers to understand the data behind Ms. Owens' assertion. The facts of this case are rather startling, to say the least. The video Ms. Owens linked has also long been scrubbed.
Why, if it is all fake news?So, here is a primer of the main arguments.
The questioning of Brigitte Macron's real sex began back in 2021, when the journal,
Faits & Documents, published by Xavier Poussard, began a five-part series, entitled, "Le Mystère Brigitte Macron" ["The Mystery of Brigitte Macron"].
The investigation, which had taken three years, was done by Natacha Rey and then furthered by Mr. Poussard.
By the end of 2021, there was a great buzz about all this in France.
The main arguments presented in the journal, with much documentary proof, may be summarized as follows:
1. Brigitte Macron was born a man and transitioned into a woman. There is a mysterious video from 1977, which shows a man shadowed out, calling himself "Veronique," who had begun to live as a woman.
Documented analysis shows that Veronique's voice is remarkably like that of Mrs. Emmanuel Macron (to avoid confusion hereon in, we shall only use this designation).
2. This initial hint led to a fuller investigation into the background of Mrs. Macron, whose given name is "Brigitte," and whose family name is Trogneux; the family hails from the city of Amiens. What investigators found next was rather unexpected.
There were two Trogneux children, a brother named Jean-Michel (born in 1945) and a sister named Brigitte (born in 1953). But this sister (Brigitte) supposedly died in 1961. And the photos of the sister, the late Brigitte, look nothing like the present Mrs. Macron who actually is a dead-ringer for the brother, Jean-Michel. So, what exactly is going on here? A dead Brigitte, and a Mrs. Macron who looks like the brother?
Comment: On the matter of lawsuits, the media often cites a case that Brigitte Macron brought against the two authors of
the book that forms the basis of this theory, but, curiously, that case wasn't for defamation but for 'misuse of private family photos'.
'Mrs' Macron won that case, but in fact, upon appeal, the fines issues to the authors were greatly reduced. The judge in that case also told the defendant that 'she' really ought to sue for outright defamation. But, as yet, 'she' has not...
