Vannacci boccia l’ipotesi di diventare ministro: «Il mio scopo è un altro» New

Vannacci boccia l’ipotesi di diventare ministro: «Il mio scopo è un altro»

Ospite di Falsissimo, il programma YouTube condotto da Fabrizio Corona, Roberto Vannacci attacca la maggioranza, accusandola di "aver amministrato un fallimento", tradendo i valori del centrodestra. Il leader di Futuro Nazionale dice la sua sui partiti di governo: a partire da Forza Italia, "non è più un partito di destra", passando per la Lega che "ha perso l'anima", fino a Fratelli d'Italia "un partito annacquato". Tra i temi al centro dell'intervista l'ipotesi di un'alleanza con il centrodestra. Nonostante i primi segnali di arresto, i sondaggi mostrano Vannacci attorno al 7,5%, sopra i due alleati di FdI. Se la premier Giorgia Meloni lo chiamasse offrendogli ad esempio di fare il ministro dell'Interno dopo le prossime politiche, l'ex generale risponderebbe: "Mi dispiace". "A me con il libro sono arrivati i soldi, non tanti, ma sono arrivati", spiega. "Ho visibilità ma non ho cambiato la mia vita e non ho nessuna voglia di andare a fare il ministro dell'Interno. Io voglio dare un futuro diverso alle mie figlie. Il mio scopo non è fare il ministro dell'Interno né della Difesa". "La mia vita è stata servizio alla patria, ai miei uomini. Non ero là per fare i soldi, ma perché credevo in quello che facevo. È la stessa cosa che faccio ora con la politica", prosegue. Poi la critica a Meloni: "Ha cambiato il suo atteggiamento, io invece ho un approccio completamente diverso, io sono quello che sono e quello che dico. Se vi va bene bene" . Vannacci dice di avere "pochissimi contatti con i politici" , di non aver mai incontrato il presidente del Senato Ignazio La Russa, co-fondatore di FdI. "Da quando faccio politica non l'ho mai incontrato mentre l'ho conosciuto nella mia precedente vita da militare". Meloni finora ha evitato il più possibile di dedicare attenzione all'ex generale. Le occasioni in cui la premier ne ha parlato sono state sostanzialmente quelle in cui ha dovuto rispondere alle domande dei giornalisti. Anche durante gli interventi in Parlamento ha rivolto dei messaggi a Futuro Nazionale senza mai citarlo direttamente, a differenza di quanto avviene invece con gli avversari di centrosinistra. "È una sua scelta", commenta l'ex generale. Poi l'intervista entra nel vivo, con i punti fermi del programma di Vannacci. "Questo è circo", dice a proposito del video di Vladimir Luxuria che al Vco Pride si inginocchia per implorare il campo largo di restare unito e battere così il centrodestra. "Svilisce la politica". Il ddl Zan "è stata un'assurdità: inseriva una manipolazione della giustizia e della legge". Sull'apertura di Forza Italia sul tema dei diritti civili dice "questa non è la vera destra" ed "è uno dei motivi per cui sono uscito dalla Lega". "Quando mi sono visto un esponente della comunità lgbtq invitato a un evento di partito a fare propaganda ho detto 'questo non è più il mio partito'". Vannacci parla di presunte "lobby gay" che metterebbero in campo delle strategie per "ottenere il potere". Secondo l'ex generale, Forza Italia è un partito che è cambiato e il responsabile è la famiglia Berlusconi, Piersilvio e Marina. "Io non lo riconosco più come un partito di destra, l'80% dei voti di Forza Italia in Europa è uguale a quelli del Pd". "A che titolo parla Marina Berlusconi dal momento che non ha nessun ruolo nel partito? A meno che non accettiamo che FI è un partito diretto dall'editoria e dalla finanza". Piersilvio Berlusconi "non si è espresso come Marina in realtà", precisa, definendo la figlia dell'ex premier "un'usurpatrice". Sul divorzio con Salvini spiega che "l'idea era quella di cambiare la Lega, intanto cercare di capirla perché io vengo da un altro mondo e la mia intenzione era quella di portare la Lega sulle mie posizioni. Tant'è che mi ero inventato il verbo 'vannaccizzare' la Lega", aggiunge, rivelando che prima dell'entrata nel Carroccio "c'erano stati dei contatti con Fratelli d'Italia ma non sono stati convincenti". Quanto alle nostalgie verso il Ventennio, Vannacci si giustifica così: "Io richiamo la Decima Mas perché è stato un glorioso reparto della Marina militare con eroi dimenticati che hanno fatto la nostra storia. Dopo l'8 settembre 1943 quello che ha fatto è stato raccontato in determinati modi, ma sono successe tante altre cose. Io quando faccio riferimento alla Decima Mas principalmente mi riferisco a quella di prima dell'8 settembre 43. La storia non può tornare, che torni il fascismo o Mussolini sono tutte balle. Io non voglio uno stato di polizia ma uno stato di legalità", aggiunge. Poi si arriva alla remigrazione. "Bisogna capire di che cosa si parla, uscire dall'impianto degli ultimi anni. È stato sempre accostato alla destra radicale come sinonimo di deportazione. Non è questo", sostiene. "Remigrazione è il sacrosanto diritto di un popolo autoctono di difendere la propria cultura e identità", aggiunge. Putin lo definisce "un grande leader" e alla domanda se ha mai ucciso qualcuno nella sua vita da ex generale replica "non rispondo a questa domanda perché è una cosa personale". "Mi porto dietro tantissimi ricordi, mi ricordo ogni attimo, li rivivo ma non ne parlo con nessuno, non ne parlo con mia moglie, né con le mie figlie o gli amici, raramente lo faccio con le persone che hanno vissuto gli stessi eventi". In chiusura, il leader si presta al gioco proposto da Corona di descrivere con un aggettivo i diversi protagonisti della politica. Si comincia con Beppe Grillo "un comico che non fa ridere", Giuseppe Conte "un furbo", Elly Schlein "inadeguata", Giorgia Meloni "carismatica", Ignazio La Russa "storica", Ilaria Salis "impresentabile", Silvia Salis "una che recita". E poi una sfilza di giornalisti, da Bruno Vespa "istituzionale" a Marianna Aprile "livorosa", passando per Corrado Formigli, Tommaso Cerno, Daniele Capezzone e altri. Infine, nell'ipotesi in cui trionfasse alle elezioni, Vannacci dice che non chiamerebbe Giorgia Meloni per trovare un'intesa ma aspetterebbe prima una sua telefonata. "Aspetterei che il telefono suonasse. Non mi autoinvito mai da nessuno, è il padrone di casa che invita", chiude.

"I met him when he was only 14 years old when he was cast as Walter White Jr., a part he played with such joy and enthusiasm.Mitte played Cranston's on-screen son (AMC)"Born with Cerebral Palsy, he never - ever - allowed that challenge to be an excuse for anything. He met the demanding shooting schedule head on with great determination.Cranston went on, describing Mitt as 'always listening to the advice that his TV parents (Anna Gunn and myself) gave him', adding, 'but being a teenager, sometimes mischievously ignoring the counsel in order to learn the hard way…""He was one of the stars of a hit TV show - but still a kid. That kid was pretty raw when we started shooting the pilot in February of 2007, but little by little we watched him grow into a really fine actor."Cranston celebrated Mitte’s activism, noting that he was a 'vocal advocate for performers with disabilities', adding that Mitte 'was the head of a philanthropic organisation with a focus on helping the disabled community'."All that promise and potential now is such a loss," the Malcolm in the Middle actor continued.Cranston and Anna Gunn played Mitte's on-screen parents (Andrew H.

I think there’s still a big step for the White family. There’s always more to be told. But you got to tell it right."During the same interview, Mississippi-born Mitte also discussed Breaking Bad having 'set the bar' for his career."I just want to top Breaking Bad, that’s the hardest," he explained.

Gaia e Stefano muoiono dopo lo scontro con un camion sul Perugia-Bettolle

Una giornata di lavoro si è trasformata in tragedia lungo il raccordo autostradale Perugia-Bettolle. Gaia Stronati, 20 anni, e Stefano Marrese, 21 anni, sono morti ieri pomeriggio all’ospedale di Perugia a causa delle gravissime lesioni riportate in un violento scontro stradale avvenuto poche ore prima all’altezza di Passignano sul Trasimeno. La notizia del loro decesso ha profondamente scosso le comunità marchigiane di Castelbellino e San Severino Marche, città d'origine dei due ragazzi. I due giovani, colleghi di lavoro nel settore della consulenza per forniture energetiche, stavano viaggiando insieme a bordo di una Opel Karl. L'impatto con un mezzo pesante si è verificato lungo un tratto caratterizzato da uno scambio di carreggiata per cantieri in corso, compreso tra le uscite di Passignano Ovest e Passignano Est, dove la circolazione stradale era momentaneamente incanalata a doppio senso di marcia. Lo scontro con il camion è stato estremamente violento e non ha lasciato scampo all'utilitaria. Per liberare i corpi dalle lamiere accartocciate dell'abitacolo è stato necessario l'intervento dei Vigili del Fuoco. Trasportati d'urgenza dalle ambulanze del 118 al nosocomio perugino, i due ragazzi sono stati subito ricoverati nel reparto di Terapia Intensiva in condizioni critiche, ma il quadro clinico è precipitato nel corso del pomeriggio fino al decesso. Gaia Stronati era nata e cresciuta a Jesi e risiedeva con la famiglia a Castelbellino Stazione. Dopo aver conseguito il diploma al liceo artistico Mannucci, aveva intrapreso il percorso lavorativo insieme a Stefano Marrese, residente a San Severino Marche.

Bryan Cranston mourns Breaking Bad co-star RJ Mitte, who died at 34

Bryan Cranston (right) shared his shock and sadness online (Picture: AP) Bryan Cranston said he is in ‘deep despair’ following the death of his on-screen son and Breaking Bad co-star RJ Mitte. TMZ reported that the actor died by suicide in Texas on Monday, October 12, with police launching an investigation. ‘It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of beloved actor, philanthropist, and passionate disability rights advocate RJ Mitte,’ his reps said. Mitte rose to fame in his role as Walter White Jr in the Emmy-winning series, and used his platform to advocate for disability rights from his experience of living with cerebral palsy. In an emotional Instagram post, Cranston said the pair had exchanged text messages in recent weeks and tried to arrange a catch-up. He wrote: ‘I’m in deep despair as I write this tonight. RJ Mitte, my sweet son on Breaking Bad, has died. The actor was only 34 years old (Picture: AMC) ‘I met him when he was only 14 years old, when he was cast as Walter White Jr., a part he played with such joy and enthusiasm. Born with Cerebral Palsy, he never – ever – allowed that challenge to be an excuse for anything. ‘He met the demanding shooting schedule head-on with great determination.’ He added: ‘Always listening to the advice that his TV parents (Anna Gunn and myself) gave him – but being a teenager, sometimes mischievously ignoring the counsel in order to learn the hard way… He was one of the stars of a hit TV show – but still a kid.’ Mitte, real name Roy Frank Mitte III, was an actor and producer who started his career in entertainment playing minor roles in sitcoms such as Everybody Hates Chris and Hannah Montana. He made a name for himself in 2008 after landing a lead role in hit crime series Breaking Bad, starring as the son of mild-mannered high school chemistry teacher Walter White, who transforms into a ruthless drug kingpin. Mitte’s cause of death is yet to be confirmed by the medical examiner (Picture: Getty Images) Mitte first appeared in the series aged 15 and had a recurring role until its conclusion in 2013, featuring alongside Hollywood stars such as Cranston and Aaron Paul, as well as Anna Gunn, Bob Odenkirk and Dean Norris. Norris, who played Mitte’s uncle and DEA agent Hank Schrader on Breaking Bad, described the actor as a kind of son to him in a tribute on his social media. ‘Oh my God! Was working (and) just found out about RJ. I am heartbroken,’ Norris wrote. ‘Though RJ didn’t play my TV son, I always looked out for him as a young kid on set. He was a sweetheart of a young man and will be greatly missed. This is so heartbreaking; I can’t believe it. Thinking of him and his family.’ Paul, who played drug user turned drug dealer Jesse Pinkman, said in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter: ‘I am at a loss. I am heartbroken over this news. RJ, I love you, my friend. You will be missed. And to whoever happens to be reading this, please know you are loved, and you are not alone. Always remember that.’ Need support?

Michael Dell shares children’s thank-you notes after Susan is mocked over White House appearance New

Michael Dell shares children’s thank-you notes after Susan is mocked over White House appearance

Published 04:12 13 Oct 2026 GMT+1He was joined by appalled X users and outraged prominent figures Michael Dell, founder of Dell Technologies has taken to social media in what appears to be a bid to defend his wife from internet trolls.Susan went viral after she appeared in a clip showing her in the Oval Office on October 7 with Donald Trump standing alongside her husband to comment on a $6.25 billion pledge they made towards helping 25 million children build a $250 financial foundation, the Daily Mail reported.Susan said, “To every child across the country, these accounts are for you. We believe in you.”Despite the generosity of the act, internet users were quick to seize on her appearance as an opportunity to mock her red dress and general look.AdvertConservative commentator Mike Cernovich summed up the controversy when he defended Susan on X, “The Dell family gave 7 billion dollars directly to American children.“And instead of gratitude, there's much discussion of a 62-year-old woman's looks.”The Dells met the President at the Oval Office (Photo by Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images)Michael Dell himself seems to have joined the defence of his wife by sharing posts online in support of her.One was from an X user called Feisty Floridan who said, “My grandson got 250 dollars in his Trump account from Susan Dell. Please leave that woman alone. Thank you Susan.”Michael Dell also shared a post by another X user called Wingfoot, who said, “It’s truly insane how evil and full of themselves people are.“I signed my kids up and wasn’t expecting to get anything as we live in a wealthy country and city.“Out of the blue $250 showed up from Dell for both of my boys. I will go out of my way to support them now, who else has”.Trump’s son Eric also took to X to defend Susan via a post, “People are awful. Susan and Michael Dell just put $6.25 billion into Trump Accounts for 25 million kids so they’ll have something waiting for them when they grow up—one of, if not the largest private donation in American History.“The response? Vicious attacks on her.“I’m tired of this nonsense. Very few people have done more for philanthropy. It’s disgusting and it has to stop.“Susan, on behalf of the overwhelming majority of people in this nation: Thank You!! You are incredible!”Michael Dell also shared some examples of the fan mail his family had received, which appeared to have been written by children.One message read: “Dear Dell Family, Thank you for the money in my Trump bank account. I'm very glad to be saving for my future.”Another wrote: “I'm grateful for the money you added to my Trump account, Thank you for helping me save for my future.”The couple’s donation has been paid into Trump Accounts, which also receive a $1,000 taxpayer-funded deposit for eligible children.” Capitalise Trump Accounts.“They’re putting up a lot of money,” said Trump in July, referring to the Dells’ contribution.Featured Image Credit: (Photo by Anna Moneymaker/Getty Images)Topics: Donald Trump, Social Media

Oglas Plakati su se pojavili kao aluzija na nedavni incident u kojem je, prema tvrdnjama pokreta "Kreni-promeni", Šapić njihovoj odbornici Tanji Mićić slomio nos. Na plakatima je preko Vučićevog lica istaknut natpis "ZAŠTITNIK", dok preko lica i imena Aleksandra Šapića stoji reč "SILEDŽIJA".Pokret "Kreni-promeni" tvrdi da je reč o direktnom fizičkom napadu i priložio je lekarski nalaz o povredama. Šapić je oštro negirao optužbe, tvrdeći da nije udario odbornicu, već da se branio.Osvanuli plakati "Ujedinjene siledžije - Aleksandar Šapić siledžija i Aleksandar Vučić zaštitnik siledžije" u Beogradu. https://t.co/z5gT9EjoH7— Kreni-Promeni (@KPromeni) October 12, 2026Povodom slučaja oglasio se i Aleksandar Vučić, ocenivši da je Šapić kao javni funkcioner morao da se skloni i snosi odgovornost. Šapić se dan nakon incidenta izvinio Vučiću i Srpskoj naprednoj stranci zato što je dozvolio da bude uvučen u takvu situaciju.Za sada nije poznato ko je postavio plakate širom Beograda.
