And then the airport for Berlusconi, the famous last words of the Right on the French successes, the anti-vax and the lucidity of Joe Biden. Even in the last few days our politics has said all sorts of things. Read them all, if you dare
The new, unmissable chapter of the social feud between Vittorio Feltri and Maurizio Gasparri; that time when Boccaccio and Petrarca founded Fratelli d’Italia; the Democratic Party and Silvio Berlusconi’s airport “orgies”; the euphoric tweets of the Italian right before the second round in France (spoiler: they sang victory slightly early, a disaster); all this between no vax winks, audio censorship, various and sundry sfascisms. This is the new Stupidario, let’s go.
Feltri vs. Gasparri (and Tajani) – Chapter II
Vittorio FeltsFdi exponent: “Tajani and Gasparri are two incapable and arrogant people who lick the political plate because they don’t know how to do anything else”
Gaspari: “I am not used to licking anything. At most, ice creams on the go. Certainly not the soles of generous publishers. Courage, once you were admired, today you are pitied. By the way, every now and then he stops by the Region”
Felts: “Poor Gasparri, retire, you’re disgusting”
Gaspari: “@vfeltri had her phone stolen and a joker wrote crazy things in her name. Carer already notified”

Whistles and applause
Rai, applause instead of boos for the minister Sangiulianohere’s who manipulated the Taobuk video. The protest against Schifani was also cut. Viale Mazzini: the fault of the director of the Taormina festival. Self-censorship for the funding of the Region and public television.

Scaccabarozzi had judo
“It makes me smile the alleged intelligentsia that continues to attack Minister Sangiuliano, myself, the representatives of Fdi and the political right. It is an unbearable ideological racism, we can’t take it anymore, we will never be children of a lesser God! Our pantheon is not a segregated pantheon. We do not refer to esoteric circles or film clubs of an introverted intellectual circuit, as part of the left. You studied our identity in Italian anthologies at school. We are Petrarch, Boccaccio, Dante, Machiavelli. Let them face it! We represent the majority of intellectuals, writers, musicians, painters, sculptors, artists, dancers. We are Italian beauty, and we are proud of it. We are second to none!”
(The President of the Culture Commission of the Chamber, Federico Softduring a debate at a Fdi party in Rome – July 7)

Happy ending
“Should all of Milan be dedicated to Silvio? I can understand that. Why the airport? In my opinion, it doesn’t do him justice. Why not dedicate a massage center with a happy ending to him? Or why not dedicate a place set up for orgies to him? Or, who knows, a nightclub.” With a Facebook post Greta CogotDem and new vice president of the Biella city council has unleashed a storm on the figure of Silvio Berlusconi
(Corriere Torino – July 8)

Stalingrad Street
Galeazzo Handbookdeputy minister from Fdi: “The PD deems it ‘inappropriate’ to name an airport after Berlusconi in Milan. However, it deems via Lenin, via Marx, via Togliatti, via Stalingrado as in Bologna to be very appropriate. Who has to deal with the past?”
Replica @maxcoccia: “Perhaps she who dresses up as a Nazi?”
E @AlekosPrete: “As inappropriate as naming a street after Father Marcello, sentenced to 2 years for reconstituting the fascist party, responsible for squad attacks together with his comrades from the FUAN. Neo-fascist who declared: ‘MSI and AN linked by a feeling that united MSI to RSI’. #matrix”

“Biden? Lucid until mid-afternoon.” This is how the President’s staff tries to preserve him.
