This document critically examines the career and background of Christine Lagarde, the current President of the European Central Bank and former Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The author, Pedro M. Ormazabal (also known as PMO), questions the legitimacy of Lagarde’s educational achievements, suggesting inconsistencies in the timeline and number of degrees she claims. The text highlights her early career at the U.S. Capitol as a congressional assistant to Representative William Cohen and her time at the Holton-Arms School in Bethesda, Maryland, speculating about CIA involvement. It details her rapid rise through the ranks of the international law firm Baker & McKenzie, where she specialized in labor, anti-trust, and mergers and acquisitions, eventually becoming its Chair.

Lagarde’s political career in France is outlined, including her roles as Minister of Foreign Trade, Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries, and crucially, Minister of the Economy, Finance and Industry. During her tenure as Finance Minister, she oversaw the government’s response to the 2007-2008 financial crisis and was recognized by the Financial Times as the best finance minister in the Eurozone.

A significant portion of the text focuses on a French court conviction for negligence related to a €403 million arbitration deal involving businessman Bernard Tapie in 2007, during which Lagarde approved a large payout from the French Ministry of Finance. Despite being found guilty, no penalty was imposed, and it was not recorded as a criminal record. The author argues this demonstrates a pattern of impunity and questions the definition of “negligence” in this context, suggesting it was akin to theft.

The article also delves into Lagarde’s personal background, her family (including her father, Robert Lallouette, and mother, Nicole Carré), and her relationships, particularly with Wilfried Lagarde, Eachran Gilmour, and Xavier Giocanti. The author suggests a connection to British peerage through her maternal grandmother and a sugar magnate family, the Lalouettes of Mauritius, and speculates about hidden family history.

Crucially, the text asserts that Lagarde is Jewish, citing her participation in a Jewish event at IMF headquarters during Chanukah in 2015, alongside prominent figures like Luis Alberto Moreno (President of the Inter-American Development Bank (IADB)), Stanley Fischer (Vice Chairman of the Federal Reserve), Ron Dermer (Israel’s Ambassador to the US), and Keith Hansen (World Bank Vice President for Human Development). This event, chaired by Rabbi Levi Shemtov, is presented as evidence of Jewish influence within international financial institutions. The article also references the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks and the January 2015 attacks on Charlie Hebdo offices and a Jewish supermarket in Paris.

The author concludes by questioning the appropriateness of Lagarde’s appointments to prestigious positions like IMF Managing Director and ECB President, given her conviction and alleged background, drawing a parallel to Ursula von der Leyen, the President of the European Commission, and her association with the Talmud.
