CENTRE - VAL DE LOIRE : Centre-Valois, Centro-Ligériens, Centraliens... quel nom donneriez-vous aux habitants du Centre-Val de Loire ?
▶️ Eh bien au risque de casser l’ambiance, je propose "habitants du Centre-Val de Loire", de même que si on me pose la question pour mon département, je réponds "Je suis du Loiret", préférant utiliser cette solution plutôt que le gentilé préfabriqué Loirétain que je trouve un peu crétin 😄

Centre-Valois, Centro-Ligériens, Centraliens... quel nom donneriez-vous aux habitants du Centre-Val de Loire ?

Le président de la Région a annoncé vouloir doter les habitants d'un nom avant la fin de l'année 2026. Mais comment bien choisir ? Nous avons donné la parole aux habitants.

One by one,
white-collar criminals have marched to the White House, bleating their fealty to Trump
– and 🔥watched their prison sentences evaporate as a result.

🔸There was #Charles #Scott,
a Virginia businessman sentenced earlier this year for manipulating stock values and defrauding investors at a lighting company
– and who Trump later freed.

🔸A pair of reality television stars, #Julie and #Todd #Chrisley, were caught out evading taxes,
sentenced to three years in prison as a result
– before Trump decided to pardon them.

🔸#David #Gentile was a former private equity head,
convicted last year for conspiring to defraud investors
(along with his partner)
to the tune of some $1.6bn,
receiving a seven-year sentence as a result.

But just days into his prison term,
Trump announced Gentile’s sentence would be commuted, and that he could walk free.

The latter decision was remarkably galling.

💥Gentile and his colleague had defrauded a staggering
10,000 different victims:
⚠️parents and grandparents with little to their names,
some of whom saw their entire life savings wiped out.

“I’m totally disgusted, because it wasn’t only myself,”
one of Gentile’s victims said after Trump’s move.

“It was my elder mother in her nineties and my sister as well… We all got defrauded.”

Thanks to Donald Trump, 2025 was a good year … for white-collar criminals

Why would the Trump administration choose to set aside consequences from criminals whose actions threaten the stability of the broader American economy?
