🔴CITTÀ MILITARE | LEVANTE LIVE
Cinquecento militari in più per le strade di Milano, con poteri che potrebbero avvicinarli a quelli della polizia. È la risposta del governo alle proteste contro il carovita del 17 e 18 ottobre. Nel frattempo il ministro della Difesa Guido Crosetto riconosce alla BBC che la maggioranza degli italiani è contraria agli aiuti militari all’Ucraina, ma aggiunge che non si può cedere all’opinione pubblica quando si ritiene che sbagli. Nelle tesse ore, Pete Hegseth è andato in visita improvvisata da Netanyahu, Raul Castro rischia di subire il trattamento Maduro e il segretario di Stato Rubio ha lasciato l’Asia occidentale per arrivare in India.
Stasera a #Levante parliamo di militarizzazione: delle strade, dell’informazione e delle menti, a partire dalla scuola.

Trump attacks ‘migrants and communists’ as he tries to exploit France unrest
President at Kansas rally tries to turn protests into cautionary tale for US as Republicans face midterm losses
As Republicans confront mounting political headwinds ahead of November’s midterm elections, Donald Trump is attempting to turn unrest in France into a cautionary tale for American voters, recasting the demonstrations that began as student protests against crumbling schools and the soaring cost of living as evidence of the dangers of immigration and the erosion of western civilization.
At a rally in Kansas on Monday evening, Trump described France as a once-great nation that had been “conquered, looted, and burned to the ground by migrants, jihadists, and communists”.

What Trump’s Comments About France Say About Him
This is an edition of The Atlantic Daily, a newsletter that guides you through the biggest stories of the day, helps you discover new ideas, and recommends the best in culture. Sign up for it here.
You might imagine that, given the imminent midterm elections, a spluttering war in Iran, and his sinking personal approval, Donald Trump has enough to worry about. Not so. The president has been posting prolifically on Truth Social over the past two days about protests in France. “The migrants have taken over France. They must CLOSE THE BORDERS, FAST!” he wrote this morning. Trump’s reactions don’t tell us a great deal about the protests or about French society, but they do reveal three things about Trump.
First, Trump’s favorite mode is punditry. Even as the world’s most powerful man, he frequently seems to prefer watching TV and shooting opinions from the hip to engaging in governance. This explains why he continued to give freewheeling briefings, full of his own speculation and medical advice, while the coronavirus swept the United States in 2020, and it might be one reason he’s fixated on France at a time of political peril for his own party.
Second, and related, Trump can’t resist meddling in other countries’ affairs, engaging in behavior that previous presidents would have concluded was inappropriate. The U.S. government has long worked to covertly influence foreign elections, and in some cases encouraged or fomented coups. But presidents have mostly avoided issuing public endorsements or other interventions in partisan politics overseas, two things Trump loves to do. He endorsed the prime minister of Japan for reelection, backed a right-wing candidate for president of Poland, placed tariffs on Brazil for prosecuting his ally Jair Bolsonaro, and lent his administration’s credibility to the reelection campaign of Hungary’s then-President Viktor Orbán. (Orbán lost.) This weekend, he endorsed embattled Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Trump’s blaming of immigrants in France amplifies the platform of National Rally, a far-right party with fascist roots that is ideologically aligned with MAGA and has its best shot yet at capturing the French presidency for the first time next spring.
But U.S. interference abroad tends to produce some pushback. Leaders and voters in sovereign countries may not like a superpower telling them how to live—especially in a nation such as France, which still sees itself as a global player. Apologists might contend that Trump’s meddling in foreign politics is a sign of strength, projecting American power worldwide, but the brush-off Trump received when begging for international assistance in the Persian Gulf showed the cost of treating allies dismissively. Trump’s approach to the protests is notable because for years, he seemed to get along with French President Emmanuel Macron better than with almost any other foreign leader, a bromance sealed with history’s most awkward handshake. Their friendship seems to have cooled more recently, in part because of tariffs and Trump’s antagonism toward Ukraine. (Notably, the Kremlin is also using France’s protests to score political points.)
Third, Trump views all forms of protest—at least those with which he disagrees—as inherently illegitimate. The violence in France warrants concern: This past weekend, the country saw some of its worst riots in decades; shops were looted and landmarks were destroyed as rioters seemed to take advantage of the mass marches. But in his posts on Truth Social, the president does not simply condemn the violence—he suggests that the riots must be the work of foreign seditionists. The protest movement was in fact sparked by domestic concerns, particularly demands for better funding for the nation’s school system. Macron, in contrast to Trump, has said that many protestors have legitimate demands, even as he has fiercely condemned violence, which he blames on “troublemakers from far-left fringe groups.”
Authoritarians see any popular resistance as a danger to their power, which is why the autocratic Russian regime and the aspiring strongman Trump are united in condemning French demonstrations. And as nationalists, they must also blame the danger on outsiders, even though French authorities have not made any link between immigrants and unrest. “Western liberals imported the third world into France and other countries in the name of diversity and compassion,” Vice President Vance posted on X this weekend, along with a clip of the city hall in Limoges, in the old province of Limousin, burning. “They ignored fundamental questions of assimilation and compatibility. They were told it would lead to this and they didn’t listen.” This was not only a missed opportunity for Vance to blame literal limousine liberals for the riots; it was patently absurd. The French don’t need outsiders to teach them how to rage in the streets. They’ve been doing it for centuries. (Trump, an aficionado of Les Misérables, might not have made this mistake.) To the extent that migrants are involved in these protests, it is proof that they have assimilated fully to the French way of life.
Suggesting that Trump and Vance might be wiser to focus on getting their own house in order than to look overseas would be easy, but it misses the point. This weekend, while Trump was posting about French protests, Americans were participating in thousands of “No Kings” demonstrations around the country and Trump’s “border czar” was insinuating that Ilhan Omar, a Democratic lawmaker who is a naturalized citizen, committed immigration fraud. Trump’s attempts to delegitimize protest and whip up xenophobia aren’t ultimately about France. They’re about the United States.

Evening Read
The Minimal Requirements for a Society Free From Fear
By Adam Kirsch
In 1989, the year the West won the Cold War, Francis Fukuyama published an essay announcing “the end of history.” He wasn’t claiming that historic events would stop taking place; what was over, rather, was the debate about the meaning of those events. Since the Enlightenment, Western thinkers had believed that history was progressing toward a final destination. According to communism, the engine of progress was class conflict, and history would end in the creation of a classless society. With the failure of the Soviet empire, Fukuyama argued, this idea had been discredited. Only one alternative remained: It was now clear that the “end point of mankind’s ideological evolution” was “the universalization of Western liberal democracy as the final form of human government.” There would still be disagreements within liberalism—Fukuyama named religion and nationalism as likely fault lines—but there could no longer be any disagreement about liberalism.

🔴SUD BLOCCA NORD BRUCIA | LEVANTE LIVE
Il Sud si ferma senza spaccare niente e sparisce dai telegiornali; Milano brucia per una sera e apre tutte le edizioni; la Francia conta 2.400 arresti e un presidente che dice «niente lo giustifica». Tre piazze, una sola crisi: il conto della guerra arrivato nel pieno di un camion e nella spesa di una famiglia. E un’informazione che sa raccontare la rabbia solo come ordine pubblico, perché la fame costringerebbe a spiegare il conto.
A Levante questa sera, lunedì 19 ottobre 2026, Margherita Furlan dialoga con Lorenzo Maria Pacini, filosofo politico, Alessandro Volpi, storico dell’Università di Pisa, e Michele Putrino, filosofo.
Il Sud fermo da una settimana: gasolio a 2,30 euro, sconto accise scaduto il 6 ottobre, 434 milioni di credito d’imposta mai arrivati alle imprese, scaffali vuoti in Molise e Puglia, un tavolo con Salvini convocato solo dopo i supermercati a secco
Un miliardo per gli stipendi dei magistrati che Meloni dice di non voler firmare, cento milioni cercati per l’autotrasporto, quattordici miliardi l’anno per il riarmo: la gerarchia del bilancio letta da Alessandro Volpi
Milano, Torino, Bologna: sedicenni convocati su TikTok, 28 arresti e 141 agenti feriti in una sera; la parola «maranza» di Salvini e il lavoro che fa, togliere la questione sociale e mettere l’etnia
Francia: dal liceo di Créteil con le classi da 36 a 550.000 persone in piazza, il municipio di Limoges in fiamme, Macron che rinvia e i sindacati che rispondono «la gioventù non aspetterà sei mesi»
La risposta penale: la cauzione per chi manifesta proposta dalla Lega, i genitori che pagano i danni dei figli chiesti da Darmanin; lo Stato che non tiene il prezzo del gasolio ma mette un prezzo al dissenso
Fiorello al Tg1: «la luce deve essere accesa anche al Sud». Perché la compostezza non fa notizia e il saccheggio sì, da Arendt a Gramsci, con l’autocritica della controinformazione
Che cosa guardare nelle prossime settimane: il tavolo del 20 ottobre, lo sciopero generale e la giornata dei portuali del 30 ottobre, lo sciopero studentesco europeo del 20 novembre
