Italy Rebukes EU, Elects Right-wing Government

In an election that many in the mainstream media are hysterically likening to a “return of fascism,” the Italian people delivered a stark anti-European-Union statement. On Sunday, a right-wing coalition led by Giorgia Meloni and her Fratelli d’Italia (Brothers of Italy) party received enough votes to form a government. Meloni and her party are openly skeptical of EU policies.
The snap election was triggered by party infighting, which led to the collapse of Prime Minister Mario Draghi’s government in July.
The Brothers of Italy Party, which Meloni co-founded in 2012, led all vote-getters in a crowded political landscape, gathering 26 percent of the vote nationally. Meloni’s coalition includes the Lega (League) party of Matteo Salvini, which garnered approximately nine percent, and the Forza Italia (Forward Italy) party, considered more moderate than the others, receiving about eight percent of the vote.
A new government will be formed in the coming weeks.
Left-wing forces have seen their numbers dramatically decline since the 2018 election. The center-left Democratic Party scored about 19 percent, with its allies scoring another seven percent altogether. The populist Five Star Movement, which was the dominant party in 2018, saw its numbers decline radically, only receiving about 15 percent of the vote.
Meloni will be Italy’s first female prime minister. She is a fierce defender of the natural idea of marriage between a man and a woman and would like to see Italians increase their birthrate rather than populate the country with more immigrants. She is anti-abortion, and against the teaching of so-called gender ideology in schools.
“It’s a victory I want to dedicate to everyone who is no longer with us and wanted this night…. Starting tomorrow we have to show our value … Italians chose us, and we will not betray it, as we never have,” she said Monday.
Meloni dedicated the victory to “all the militants, managers, supporters and every single person who — in these years — has contributed to the realization of our dream, offering soul and heart spontaneously and selflessly.”
“We won’t betray your trust. We are ready to lift Italy up.”
“I say the losers are those with nothing better to do than come here and insult us while we talk about what we can do for the Italian family. But above all, I say the embarrassing ones are not us. The embarrassing ones are those who support practices like ‘womb for rent,’ abortion at nine months, and blocking the development of children with drugs at eleven years of age. That is embarrassing,” she said.
So, naturally, the Left and the EU see her and her party as “fascist.”
Sunday’s election represents a huge shift in Italian politics. In 2018, Brothers of Italy received only 4.5 percent of the vote.
Meloni will take over the government of a founding member of the EU, the bloc’s third-largest economy.
Meanwhile, EU leaders have promised to rein in any untoward behavior of the new Italian government. In a chilling warning days before the election, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen spoke of consequences should the new Italian government not toe the EU line.
Speaking at Princeton University in the United States on Thursday, von der Leyen issued a veiled threat to any right-wing Italian government.
“My approach is that whatever democratic government is willing to work with us, we’re working together,” the European Commission president said. “If things go in a difficult direction, I’ve spoken about Hungary and Poland, we have tools.”
Von der Leyen didn’t expand on what those “tools” may be.
Other European leaders were slightly less vicious than von der Leyen. French President Emmanuel Macron, who survived a right-wing challenge of his own from Marine Le Pen in April, issued a conciliatory message.
“The Italian people have made a democratic and sovereign choice. We respect it,” Macron said. “As a neighbor and friend, we must continue to work together. It’s as Europeans that we will succeed in overcoming our joint challenges.”
Perhaps the most fascinating aspect of Meloni’s win is how quickly mainstream media in the United States were to cast her victory as Benito Mussolini’s second coming. CNN called the coming government “the most far-right government since the fascist era of Benito Mussolini,” and The Atlantic referred to Meloni’s election as “The Return of Fascism in Italy.”
It’s almost as if the American Left wants there to be a fascist government in Europe.

Italy: Populist Brothers of Italy win sweeping majority, smeared by globalists as ‘fascist’

Italian voters have spoken: enough of globalist chaos; environmental lunacy creating a bad economy built on an unrealistic green agenda; open-door, unvetted immigration; rigid Covid mandates; and diminishing personal freedom. Giorgia Meloni’s Brothers of Italy coalition party has captured a sweeping majority in Italy. It’s being widely smeared as the most right-wing government since Mussolini. Other coalition members include Matteo Salvini’s League, noted for its opposition to an open-door immigration policy, and Silvio Berlusconi’s Forza Italia.
Here’s what Italy can immediately expect, based on the stated policies of the incoming government:
A review of rules on public spending and economic governance. Meloni has stated that her focus will be on “investments to boost Italy’s chronically weak economic growth but pledged responsibility in managing its debt-laden public accounts.” And as a fiscal conservative, she added: “I am very cautious.” She has also criticized the EU for its lack of foresight in pursuit of a green economy at any cost, accusing the EU of failing “to craft policies that would ensure available, affordable energy supplies. Sky-high energy prices, she declares, “have forced businesses and families down to their knees.”
The Brothers of Italy party is being attacked as far-right, “anti-democratic” and a threat to personal freedoms, but the truth is that globalist governments have themselves proven to be the worst threats to democracy and personal freedom while accusing the Right of everything they do. It is globalists today who are the exponents of the socialist ideology and who are willing to use violence to cancel our freedoms (especially the freedom of expression) and drive capitalist economies into the ground.
The Leftist Atlantic, in an article titled The Return of Fascism in Italy, asserted….
Meloni would also represent continuity with Italy’s darkest episode: the interwar dictatorship of Benito Mussolini.
Ridiculous. Just as Hitler was socialist (the Nazi party was the National Socialist German Workers’ Party) yet is frequently referenced as “right-wing,” Mussolini was also a socialist, called “right-wing” when both were violent socialist Leftists.
Meloni refused to join Mario Draghi’s national unity government in February 2021, opposing his “tough coronavirus measures, notably the so-called Green Pass requiring workers to be vaccinated.” Meloni is also tough on open-door migration. Italy has been overwhelmed by North African Muslims illegally swarming in, and Draghi was lukewarm on the issue. AFP stated that Meloni’s party’s “anti-immigration positions and the protection of Italy from ‘Islamization,’” and also quoted Meloni as saying: “there is no room for nostalgic attitudes of fascism, for hypotheses of racism and anti-Semitism.”
The Associated Press describes Meloni as having a message that blends Christianity, motherhood, and patriotism, while the Qatar-owned Al-Jazeera says that her party “calls for the defense and promotion of Europe’s “Judeo-Christian” and classical roots.” Meloni has also been criticized by the Left for being anti-abortion.
A government that supports Judeo-Christian principles, rejects unvetted illegal migration and rigid COVID mandates and is Eurosceptic sounds like a government on the right track. No wonder the Left is going heavy on the “far-right” and “fascist” smears.
Globalist EU leaders are now worried about a shift in the EU’s balance of power, as it should be, and about a Meloni alliance with Hungary. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has already congratulated Meloni on a “well deserved” victory.
