Good day all. With all of the news regarding the Leftard Geriatric class engaging in their No Kings protest, news of a major robbery at the Louvre in France was put on the back burner. Robbers managed to break in and steal with some of the Crown Jewels of France.
This is, of course, a breaking story. Apparently, the robbers were able to gain entry through a section that was under construction and broke into the cases holding the jewels. Here are the details we have from Fox News:
The gang of thieves who robbed the Louvre Museum on Sunday and made off with some of France’s most famous crown jewels might end up melting their loot down, an ex-FBI art crime expert said.
I don’t think the criminals are going to destroy the jewels for the gold and gem stones. That would reduce the value significantly. Considering how well planned this was, I suspect this may be another Gardner Museum robbery. 13 very valuable paintings were stolen and have never been seen again. The thinking is that the paintings were targeted by the criminals on commission by a private collector. I suspect that this might be a similar case, or they are looking to sell the jewels back to France.
Tim Carpenter also suggested the team of robbers behind the “shocking” operation were focused on treasures of immense cultural and historical value.
“This was a targeted heist,” Carpenter told Fox News Digital.
“They knew precisely what they were going for, and they understood the value and the cultural significance of these pieces,” he continued. “They also understood that this was extraordinarily important to the people of France.”
This is why I don’t think the criminals will destroy the jewels. If they did that, and were caught, I suspect that they might have a series of tragic and fatal accidents in prison. Now the robbery was especially brazen. They pulled off the job in 7 minutes in daylight while the museum was open.
According to French daily Le Parisien, the thieves, two of whom were disguised as construction workers, entered the museum after parking next to it. They extended a lift to a first-floor window and smashed it open with an angle grinder.
The time “is when the museum is kind of its most chaotic. People are getting settled,” added Carpenter.
“They breached through a window and made this really brazen. These guys are fast and moving quickly with a purpose, and they breach, and they get in there really quickly,” he added.
Now the French do have a suspect, although they aren’t naming names. However, my sources have been provided with an internal wanted poster of the prime suspect. Apparently, this isn’t his first “job.”
However, the French government has put their bet man on the case. I have no doubt that he will catch the perpetrator(s) and bring them to justice.

Makes me wonder what the security guards doing during that 7 minutes… in broad daylight.
