Marine Le Pen: Predicted Winner BANNED From French Presidential Election By Court Order w/ Former MEP Jerome Riviere – Ask Dr. Drew – Ep 472
05 Apr 2025
Marine Le Pen is the frontrunner for France’s presidential elections – but after a judge sentenced her to a 5-year ban from politics, she may be barred from running at all. If a judge can bar a leading candidate from running, is their country really a democracy? On Monday, a French court sentenced Marine Le Pen to a 5-year political ban, finding her guilty of embezzling EU funds for her National Rally party. The immediate ban, upheld during appeals, will reportedly block her from the 2027 presidential race. Le Pen called the ruling ‘authoritarian’ and claimed it violates the rule of law, and has vowed to fight the ruling. According to CNN, “The court’s presiding judge, Bénédicte de Perthuis, said Le Pen’s actions amounted to a “serious and lasting attack on the rules of democratic life in Europe, but especially in France.”” Jerome Riviere is a French politician, lawyer, and entrepreneur. He served as a Member of the French Parliament for Alpes-Maritimes from 2002 to 2007 and later joined the National Rally, becoming a Member of the European Parliament in 2019. He led the French delegation of the Identity and Democracy group until 2022, when he supported Éric Zemmour’s Reconquête party as Vice-President, leaving in 2023.

Full Episode
I have a lot to discuss today. The last half of the hour, we'll be talking to Justin Gardner, the founder and chief marketing officer of Active Skin Repair. We'll tell you more about that then. But first is Jerome Riviere. He's a French politician, lawyer, entrepreneur. He was a member of parliament. 2002 to 2007, he joined the national rally, became a member of the European parliament in 2019.
Led the French delegation of the Identity and Democracy Group until 2022. So he is going to give us a report about what's going on in France, both from the standpoint of how the European Union and France in particular is reacting to the tariff shocks and the other shock to the French system. Marine Le Pen, the leading candidate for presidency, has been subject to lawfare.
I heard them coin the term judicial dictatorship in France. And she is barred from even running for five years. And tell us about that and more. There it is. It's an earthquake. I tell you it is a political earthquake. And people aren't paying attention to it here. It's a big deal. Be right back. Our laws as it pertain to substances are draconian and bizarre. The psychopath started this.
He was an alcoholic because of social media and pornography, PTSD, love addiction, fentanyl and heroin. Ridiculous. I'm a doctor for five months. Where the hell do you think I learned that? I'm just saying, you go to treatment before you kill people. I am a clinician. I observe things about these chemicals. Let's just deal with what's real. We used to get these calls on Loveline all the time.
Educate adolescents and to prevent and to treat. If you have trouble, you can't stop and you want help stopping, I can help. I got a lot to say. I got a lot more to say. I'm excited to bring you a new product, a new supplement, Fatty. I take it. I make Susan take it. My whole family takes it. This comes out of, believe it or not, dolphin research. The Navy maintains a fleet of dolphins.
And a brilliant veterinarian recognized that these dolphins sometimes developed a syndrome identical to our Alzheimer's disease. Those dolphins were deficient in a particular fatty acid. She replaced the fatty acid. and they didn't get the Alzheimer's. Humans have the same issue. And we are more deficient in this particular fatty acid than ever before.
And a simple replacement of this fatty acid called C15 will help us prevent these syndromes. It's published in a recent journal called Metabolites. It's a new nutritional C15, pentadecanoic acid, it's called. The deficiency that we are developing for C15 creates something called the cellular fragility syndrome.
This is the first nutritional deficiency syndrome to be discovered in 75 years and may be affecting us in many ways, and as many as one in three of us. This is an important breakthrough.

And as I said, Jerome Revere will be here in just a second. Hey, Caleb, before I move on here, I want to just fix my collar for one thing. But the other thing is I'm wondering if we can tell people where to get the long-form interviews of what we did at the White House with the cabinet-level officials. I don't think people have seen the Linda McMahon interview.
