Since Trump's re-election, the author has grown less interested in political lies than in their strange lack of consequence. Certain moments in American political discourse recalled the black cat scene from The Matrix: an anomaly appears, the system glitches, and then everything continues as if nothing had happened.
He calls this Infosclerosis, not a shortage of information, but its saturation. When the flow never stops, the mind no longer processes; it consumes.
NO KINGS! collects fifty-two chronicles written in real time between November 2024 and April 2026, the election, Signalgate, the war with Iran, presidential pardons, the demonstrations of April 12, 2026, when eight million Americans took to the streets.
A book for readers who want less a summary of the news than a way to read it.
Every chronicle is grounded in documented facts, public statements, and accessible primary sources. Quotes attributed to public figures are drawn from official statements, press conference transcripts, archived social media posts, or reports from reference media outlets. The complete list of references is available at the end of this volume.
This is not a work of investigative journalism, nor a political essay in the classical sense. It is a testimony, that of an observer, a French expatriate, who chose to name things in real time, chronicle after chronicle, in his own voice, convinced that naming is already an act of resistance in an era designed to make reality indiscernible.
