đDo you like motorcycles? This is for you then. Thousands of motorcyclists rode in protest today in Paris against proposed paid street parking. When the Parisians mobilize, they really mobilize. #manifestationparis #motos

Police arrive with tear gas to break up the violence near MĂ©tro Rue des Boulets after a homemade âbombâ created a fire. Annual May Day protest march gone bad. (In case youâre wondering, yes, tear gas BURNS.) #mayday #1ermai #manifestation #paris

Oh boy, oh boy, fun times in France! Over 2000 new cases daily (100K+ active cases)ânumbers not seen since Aprilâwith most new cases in people 25-35. And Paris is a red zone again. Mon dieu, Lisa! âŠ

Residents of a #Paris neighborhood are fighting for their way of life. And this fight is centered around a small 130-yr-old bistro called #LesPipos that could fall victim to a juicy real estate deal. More here:
