“Generation Identity” dissolved by the government
Alongside her studies, Thaïs d’Escufon campaigns for the group ” French action“. A political movement present in France which is oriented towards nationalism and far-right royalism.

She was then regularly invited to media outlets often oriented towards the extreme right. It is important to specify that this group was dissolved by the French government in 2021.
Dramatic turn of events! The RN was “surprised” to learn about Thaïs d’Escufon’s past… From September 2020 to January 2021, the far-right activist was community manager for Sébastien Chenu, leader of the National Rally. A contract that did not last long between the two parties since Chenu said he discovered the young woman’s activism during her appearance on the TPMP show. He therefore ended their collaboration. Finally, Thaïs d’Escufon became columnist of Cyril Hanouna in his new radio show on Europe 1 called “On marche sur la tête” from August 2024.
