We're not sure why the Left chooses to lie about the riots that have been plaguing France for weeks now. It's not about "students" or education funding or rights. It's an amalgamation of far-left Antifa goons and Islamists who are working towards destroying Western civilization.
Anything else is just an excuse for that, and Scott Jennings set the record straight on his CNN panel.

"French have always rioted, that's what they do. It's largely started by students who aren't getting supplies."

"The French have always rioted, that's what they do," said Joanna Coles, Chief Content Officer of the Daily Beast. "And it's obviously not jihadists, this is French, it's largely started by French students who aren't getting enough supplies in their schools and are sort of fed up. I mean, it's actually a ground up revolt going on in France which, you know, is highly unlikely to spark revolution here."
"I saw a video today of a, what I guess was a 45-year-old bearded seventh grader who was out on the street telling this reporter that they're there to tear down the system. They're there to tear down capitalism. They're there to tear down everything as you know it. The communists, the anti-capitalists, the radicals, the anarchists," Jennings said. "They've all converged here because they're taking advantage of the situation. I will grant you that a handful of students may have been bent out of shape, but what you're seeing on the streets in France, Italy, Spain, all over Europe. The President is exactly right: it will come here, not because it's going to be ground up here from America. These international organizations are well organized and well funded. And they take advantage of people. That's what they're doing in France, and they've got shopkeepers pouring boiling water off the buildings to try to keep people from destroying their livelihoods. And it will come here if it is not stopped."

Totally a student.
The French might have a history of rioting, but they don't have a history of speaking Arabic while doing it.

Bingo.
.@ScottJenningsKY dismantles the argument that the France riots are perpetrated only by students:

That's exactly what's happening.
Scott Jennings is too smart for CNN. It's like taking candy from a baby. https://t.co/dcMTCFl3Ir

This is true.
This is example number 10 million of Democrats hearing a fake story and then encoding that fake story as religious truth for eternity, regardless of how frequently and comprehensively they are proven wrong https://t.co/Nh3pYb1rxB

The narrative is more important than the facts and the truth.
And Jennings is correct: this will happen here. We saw a taste of it with the BLM/Antifa riots of 2020.
