it really is remarkable *how mild* the op-ed that she wrote was. It really shouldn’t matter what she said, but I think they chose to make an example of her precisely *because* she didn’t do anything remotely wrong. They wanted to show they could do this to anyone.

Thank you!

Two Lessons from Hungary for 2026 and 2028 Unity and accountability.

I think there are two key takeaways for Americans from Peter Magyar’s ouster of Orbán:
