A quick rundown of this product’s key features:
On May 14, 2017, Emmanuel Macron came to power in France. A year earlier, the 39-year-old was completely unknown to the public. A media blitzkrieg was waged to sell the French on the couple he formed with “Brigitte”, an attractive teacher he had seduced when he was 17 and she, 36. But the chronology didn’t add up, and the story was rewritten many times, until the admission that when he met “Brigitte”, Emmanuel Macron was…14. And “Brigitte’s” past remained inaccessible, as if she were someone other than who she claimed to be. A mysterious individual who had become “Brigitte”…

Title: We have much to unlearn! Get busy investigating, the time is now.
Review: Candace Owens did not write this book. Instead, in cooperation with the author, Xavier Poussard, she is bravely presenting this investigative work to the world. Two editions have been produced, one in French and one in English. Candace has stated that all proceeds from both editions go to the author. Candace also produced a video series based on Poussard’s work. She named her series the same as the title of Poussard’s book — “Becoming Brigette”. The book and the video series were released in February of 2025 (as I write this now, the video series is in progress).Candace is credited with having the courage to present the work of Xavier Poussard. The depth of bravery involved is hinted at if you ask yourself, “But why can’t the author publish his own book in France, his country?” Indeed, a good question. It turns out he currently cannot even safely live in his own country, let alone get the book published there. Candace has said that any act of courage on her part pales in comparison to what has been required of the investigators and journalists in France who dared to take on this story.Of course, for one to really understand the level of bravery achieved by Xavier Poussard, as well as Natacha Rey, another key investigator that Poussard references extensively in the book, one must thoroughly understand the investigation itself. To do this, I highly recommend you read the book and watch the video series (published on her YouTube channel as well as on her independent platform and website.)I cannot imagine comprehending this book without watching her video series, and I cannot imagine watching her series without having the book to help keep track of all the complex details. The story is so multilayered and complex that it takes this two pronged approach.Poussard’s book is very well researched, extremely detailed with many footnotes, and professionally presented. I do agree with those that say it needs some editing. My main suggestion would be to add text that bridges between chapters. The typos may be due to translation issues, or a very rushed job, probably both. I think it may have been translated by AI. I loathe typos in published books, but in this case the somewhat sketchy manner of presentation only added to the excitement of reading something that reveals such explosive information, the kind that is normally kept well hidden. Given that this is exceedingly timely information, it has the feel of being appropriately urgently produced.As an investigative journalist, Xavier Poussard clearly exhibits enormous amounts of rigor and tenacity. He worked on this investigation for eight years.Tragically, free speech rights are currently being strongly squelched in France. Candace is able to speak openly from the U.S. She presents Xavier’s research clearly (not an easy feat!) but in practical terms cannot present all the information in video format. Thus, the book is a must-read.This is not escapist “true crime” literature about an old and dusty case. This is cutting edge, real-time, must-read, political dynamite.Thank you to Xavier Poussard and Natacha Rey, as well as many others who have investigated the Macrons and have suffered for that act of courage. You are showing us the way. ❤️*****UPDATE added a few days later: I have now read the entire book and have watched up to episode 6. This episode is special because for the first time ever (in any media in any country, I believe) Xavier Poussard shows his face and voice on camera. He is much younger than I anticipated. This is a must watch episode.When this episode went live it “broke the internet”, and Candace’s new website, also! The website experienced intense DDOS attacks just as she told viewers to switch over to her website (she published the majority of the Poussard interview on her website). Viewers couldn’t get the video to play properly for quite some time (this was not the first time her website was attacked, see below).I am so glad I had already read most of the book before watching Episode 6. It is an understatement to say that this story is complex and I often feel overwhelmed by all of the names, as well as by the sheer insanity of it all. The book only adds to the complexity, but still it helps immensely in terms of comprehension.I don’t recommend skipping the other episodes and jumping to the interview with Poussard — you will spoil your journey, as well as get confused, I guarantee it.My recommended “best way” to approach this as a newbie would be to order Poussard’s book and, while waiting for it to arrive, watch ALL of Candace’s YouTube videos on this topic — even going back BEFORE the official series starts (use both the “live” tab and the “videos” tab on YouTube, she does most of her shows live).Those earlier videos are very valuable to watch in order to understand the progression of Candace’s own understanding, and ease yourself in to the complexity of this investigation.This is not a subject that you can skim over and then have an opinion about. Please, no!Importantly, if you choose to watch her earlier videos you will be able to watch Candace react to the Macron’s sending two key letters to her. These letters have become a part of the ongoing saga.A sitting G7 president sending a US journalist a 100 page letter to her home in Tennessee, with a note attached stating “do not make this letter public”, is a remarkable act. This was essentially a cease-and-desist letter. Candace told her viewers that things may have turned out differently if they had not sent this letter. Because instead of being intimidated or cowed by their legal move, as was clearly intended, she was incensed and even more determined and focused.Candace decided to read key portions of the letter to her millions of viewers in one of her live shows. 😁 Attempting to squelch her free speech rights from all the way across the pond only made her furious enough to dig her heels 👠 in deeper.Fortunately for Candace, the fact that they wrote directly to her allowed her to then have a direct line of communication to the Macron’s. In her letter responding to theirs, she requested that they answer 21 basic “yes or no” questions (to see the questions watch the first video of the series). These are questions that anyone could easily answer in order to exonerate themselves from malicious slander. They were presented clearly in a list in her letter.She gave the Macron’s a good window of time to respond to her letter before publishing her series. They neglected to respond at all. Thus, they obviously did not answer any of the included questions. Crickets!They did eventually write her a second letter (via email) just before she was to finally publish her video series. This second letter was not a late response to her letter with the questions — it didn’t answer any questions at all. It was designed to dissuade her from proceeding to publish her series. (She refers to this as a “preservation letter”.)In response to this second letter from the Macrons, she read most of the contents of it live on her show, just as she did with the first. If they had answered even one of the questions it could have possibly caused Candace to not publish, or at least may have delayed, her airing the series.Obviously, Candace did go ahead and publish her investigative series as well as present this book to the public. By the way, each hour-long episode in the series was produced live, which is exceptional. The audience was glued.Just before the release date of the series approached, her brand new website experienced intense and sustained DDOS attacks lasting several days. She told her viewers that the attacks were traced to be originating primarily from France, and she showed screen-shot evidence of this.Around the 20th of February, after the YouTube series had aired in full, the Macrons dared to claim that they never saw or received the 21 questions written by Candace! Wow. They had initiated contact with her, not the other way around. By stating this denial they of course admit current awareness of the questions, but so far have still not answered any of them. More crickets.The potential effects and implications of this ongoing investigation are astounding and profound and quite obviously very broad and international in scope. The word “seismic” comes to mind. If the harm done was not so EPICALLY serious it would be very entertaining, an enthralling mystery to ponder — many people have commented that it is better than any series on Netflix. But this is very serious and it is quite shocking.That apparently is what we all need right now — a good “shock and awe” to wake ourselves up from the thousands-of-years-long dream of ignorance, which has entranced us into a stupor.I am impressed that so many millions of people are ready and willing to absorb this kind of disturbing information. Look at Candace’s view numbers as evidence, and this book has become a bestseller in certain categories. Evidently, we are ready to face a lot of deep, dark stuff.I believe the very same strategies and techniques and trickery described in this book have been used for thousands of years. Master illusionists.But we hold the power to see through these illusions. Humanity can disabuse itself of engrained, destructive patterns that are based in fear, always use violence, and involve profound deception. The whole mess is propped up only by our own ignorance. Perhaps the ignorance was, ultimately, created for profoundly deep and complex reasons. Perhaps it was actually a creative act, a purposeful endeavor, a chosen path to explore for a few millennia for good reasons. Perhaps it was all ultimately unnecessary. That’s a deep topic to ponder and debate. But in any case, most seem to agree that the suffering is too much, the ignorance must end, and we are remedying the ignorance and ready to face ugly facts, such as those presented in this book. The outside world is a projection of mind and we are changing our minds. The world must in turn change. Change the mind, change the projection, change the world.*****UPDATE: Candace just published the series finale (episode 7 , titled “Epilouge”). She presents some of her own speculation, instead of sticking to “just the facts ma’am” as she did in all of the previous episodes.There are definitely firm conclusions to be made about the Macrons, and these are presented in the book and video series. But much is left unresolved as of yet, which only makes sense given the immense depth and breadth of this constructed illusion. And all illusions connect with other illusions! This is an international illusion.Read the comments on her channel and you will see that Candace has developed a very diverse international audience (almost 7 million subs on X, 4 million on YouTube). Millions are watching her video series and reading this book by Poussard. You can’t put this toothpaste back in the tube.This investigation prompts deep questions, one of which is: “Are some of our world leaders trained and prepared decades ahead of time and then placed in power… and how does that all work?” Ancient questions, modern times.And … as Candace likes to say… “that’s all I am going to say about this subject!” (And then she usually ends up saying more, like me, ha!)UPDATE: And here I am in March 2025, to add that Candace said in one of her recent shows that she is thinking about extending her “Becoming Brigitte” series. Just thought I would pass that on!UPDATE: Today, March 17th, 2025, Candace clarified that all of the proceeds from the sale of both editions (French and English) go to Xavier Poussard. She also said the French edition has been ranked number 1 in France (on Amazon, I presume) for several weeks. She also showed a clip of her series being covered in a broadcast on a major Russian news channel discussing the controversies surrounding the Macrons.

Title: I don’t like being lied to
Review: Those who have the misfortune of being terminally online and/or frequenting anonymous imageboards started coming across memes about Brigitte Macron, the ‘wife’ of French President Emmanuel Macron, a few years ago. They were funny memes but that’s all it was for me – make a dumb joke, laugh at a dumb joke, and move on.Fast forward and the French journalist Xavier Poussard has written quite the investigative series on whether or not Brigitte Macron was born a man, and thanks to the collaboration with American podcaster Candace Owens, you can read the same details. It’s riveting stuff.Pros: you will get a wealth of information, a dizzying cast of characters, and (eventually) a presentation of evidence (chief of which is a picture of Jean Michel Trogneux, age 18) that very convincingly lays out the case Brigitte Macron was born Jean Michel Trogneux, and some time in the 80s took on the identity of his sister and lived as her thereafter. Lots of disturbing implications about pubescent male grooming, whereabouts of real Brigitte Trogneux, and gay incest in the first degree of the direct line ensue.Cons: there’s a lot of typographical errors. A LOT of them. It seems as if the English text was translated using AI. Sometimes words are obviously wrong and there’s an abundance of small punctuation or spelling mistakes. More annoying is the investigative journalist format. Because it’s so difficult and time consuming to get accurate data, it seems like journalists can’t resist including everything possible, making the thread sometimes pretty hard to follow and making the reader wish Poussard would just get to the point already. Chaos, by Tom O’Neill, has exactly the same problem, just even more so.These aren’t huge problems, though. If you’re already suspecting the news lies to you, that headlines are largely fake, then Becoming Brigitte is right up your alley. Read it. Draw your own conclusions. Vomit at the stories of the French aristocracy if you must (it’s truly sickening sometimes). When you’re done, you won’t look at Mr. and Mr. Macron the same way again, and the very mention of the Rothschilds will make you suspicious. Congratulations, you’re now on your way to your very own tinfoil hat.Good hunting

Title: Grab a highlighter and a notepad!
Review: “Becoming Brigitte” is a page turner that will leave your eyes burning and your mind reeling! This is not a once-and-done read. You’ll need to go slowly through the book, pausing to reflect upon all the mainstream media has force fed you, digesting the carefully assembled information included in this book. Xavier Poussard has carefully noted his sources and Candace Owens is bringing new life into the saga with her podcast “Becoming Brigitte”.I could not wait to hear the end of this story – and apparently we haven’t reached the end as Mr. and Mr. Macron are still leveraging their might to keep this happily ever after story from becoming public knowledge. Why, Mr. and Mr. Macron? Surely in an age of acceptance of the LGBTQIA+ culture you can’t be ashamed of your union! Maybe it’s the connection to all of your friends mentioned in the book. But Jeffrey is dead and Ghislaine is in prison in the USA, so how could they possibly harm you? Oh, I forgot, maybe it’s the statute of limitations… or the family ties that bind… or… fill in the blank; it could be any number of things.One thing is for certain. If Mr. and Mr. Macron decide to bring their pe****st show on the road and come to the USA, I’ll have a front row seat at that courthouse in Tennessee to watch the world implode.Great work Candace! Exemplary investigation Xavier! This isn’t over yet.

Title:
Review: A thorough, well-researched investigation into the massive, decades-long coverup of this alleged “love story” which is actually far more sinister.This goes so much deeper than “who cares, it’s just a trans love affair.”No, they are surrounded by sinister characters who delve into illegal, gross behaviour, and they are together leading a country under false pretenses. Read the book and watch the podcast!!!

Title:
Review: This book is difficult to find in France. It is a puzzling chase to find out who is really this pseudo-lady. There are so many layers of grey area, that slowly it appears that there is something wrong with Brigitte Macron. The question that comes to mind after the elusive chase is that there is indeed something to hide, but after finishing the book, you wonder – why not come with simple proofs. Only her family has the answer and who in the family? What is funny is to discover that it is quite possible that the Algerian government has an answer and possibly some proofs of what happened. That would expose the French President to blackmail from Algiers, and that would explain many things . That is why the book is printed in Italy, has no French publisher while the writer of the book lives in Milan, out of reach of the French police.

Review: Ce livre est incroyable et pourtant… Le travail d’investigation remarquable que Xavier Poussard avait réalisé dans Faits & Documents, complètement occulté voire discrédité par les medias français, a convaincu la belle Candace Owens de parier sa carrière journalistique sur ce qu’elle appelle “l’affaire du siècle”.XP parvient à expliquer avec beaucoup de clareté au monde entier le contexte et les ramifications d’une affaire qui fait trembler la présidence et leurs complices.Ce livre restera dans l’histoire, chaque famille devrait en avoir un exemplaire pour mémoire.
