Bio Notes

SOURCE-CITED via Reuters, Politico, DW, NYT, Le Monde. French billionaire, founder of Smartbox. Belgium-based tax exile. Devout Catholic. Runs Périclès project: €150M over a decade to fund far-right meta-political infrastructure in France. Internal documents exposed by L'Humanité: targets 'socialism, wokism, Islamism, immigration.' Goal: influence 2026 municipal elections and 2027 presidential election. Connection to Theodemocracy: same operational pattern as TPUSA billionaire donor infrastructure (Foster Friess, Uihleins) — laundering billionaire political influence through grassroots-appearing vehicles. Jenny Gage's 'Life Take Two' thesis connects directly: organization as vessel for extreme wealth. Also connected to Israeli MFA / Clock Tower X operation via the meta-political infrastructure pattern. Internal documents proposed Hungary field trip 'for inspiration' and 'operational consultancy' for National Rally to win 300 cities. Top lieutenant François Durvye advises Marine Le Pen and Jordan Bardella. Risks 2 years prison + €7,500 fine for initially refusing to testify.
