Italian PM Giorgia Meloni and Tech Billionaire Elon Musk Dating?

After claiming on television that young Italian women who go out late and get drunk expose themselves to rape, Giorgia Meloni's partner has drawn criticism. The accusation of victim blaming against Andrea Giambruno, a television host who has kept a low profile ever since Meloni was elected prime minister last autumn, made the front pages of major Italian newspapers on Wednesday.

<p>Italian&nbsp;Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and her sister Arianna Meloni have both embarked on legal action this week, with the former targeting British rock band Placebo and the latter taking on a newspaper cartoonist.</p>

<p>The defamation suits have ignited a storm of controversy, shedding light on the intersection of politics, artistic expression, and freedom of speech in Italy, as reported by AFP.</p>

<p>Giorgia Meloni&nbsp;has launched a lawsuit against Brian Molko, the lead vocalist of the renowned rock band Placebo.</p>

<p>The legal action comes in response to Molko's scathing comments during a performance in Italy in July, where he branded Meloni as "racist," "fascist," and a "piece of shit."</p>

<p>Simultaneously, Arianna Meloni, Giorgia's older sister and a potential candidate in the upcoming European parliament elections, has taken legal measures against a left-wing Fatto Quotidiano daily cartoonist, Mario Natangelo.</p>

<p>The basis of this suit is Natangelo's cartoon that depicts Arianna Meloni in a compromising situation with a Black man.</p>

Morning news brief: Meloni wins Italian election, Trump didn't watch TV on Jan 6 & more

<p>Italy's right-wing leader Giorgia Meloni, whose Brothers of Italy (FdI) party came top in Italian elections, said that the voters had given a clear mandate to the right to form the next government. She is now on a course to guide Italy's right-wing government since World War II.&nbsp;</p>

<p>It is certainly expected that Meloni will get the nod from the head of state to form a new government. She also called for unity to help confront the country's many problems as, after the exit poll results, she said that they are a "starting point, not a finish line".&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the provisional results from Sunday's general election, Meloni's party topped the polls with almost 26 per cent of the vote. The results showed that an alliance of right-wing parties have a clear majority in both houses of parliament.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Meloni's coalition allies, Matteo Salvini's right League and former premier Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia, lagged behind her in the polls.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Notably, full results are not due until later Monday. However, the centre-left Democratic Party, the coalition's main rivals, conceded stating that it was a "sad" day.&nbsp;</p>

She is now on a course to guide Italy's right-wing government since World War II. It is certainly expected that Meloni will get the nod from the head of state to form a new government. She also called for unity to help confront the country's many problems as, after the exit poll results, she said that they are a "starting point, not a finish line". According to the provisional results from Sunday's general election, Meloni's party topped the polls with almost 26 per cent of the vote. The results showed that an alliance of right-wing parties have a clear majority in both houses of parliament. Meloni's coalition allies, Matteo Salvini's right League and former premier Silvio Berlusconi's Forza Italia, lagged behind her in the polls. Notably, full results are not due until later Monday. However, the centre-left Democratic Party, the coalition's main rivals, conceded stating that it was a "sad" day.

It is from tomorrow that we must prove our worth," the 45-year-old Meloni told the party faithful early Monday morning. "You know better than me that data is not final, but it seems to me, from the first projections, that we got from Italians, on this national election, a clear indication. The clear indication for a centre-right government led by Brothers of Italy," she added.

She also said, "It's important to understand that if we will be called to lead this country we will do that for all.
