đź‡đź‡ş Hungarian elections
Orbán’s 16-year reign has come to an end. In his brief speech, he pledged to take on an opposition role and said, “We will never give up!”
Historic. #Magyar calls out the #Orbán propaganda machine for what it is, live on state television. The host is speechless. Great to have YouTube's automatic realtime translation. #Hungary

Hungary’s election next week is likely to be the country’s most consequential since the fall of communism — but it won’t be a fair contest.
Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has seen to that.

A great moment to be in Budapest…
In fairness, naming a place that is not currently working and causing problems throughout the world after himself is as inadvertently introspective as Donald is ever going to get.
for sure, congratulations to magyar. but the real heroes imo are those in civil society & journalism & rank-and-file opposition & academia who have fought against the disintegration of rule of law, the weaponization of the courts/media, & so much more for so long. đź‡đź‡ş
