Hungary set to turn screws on Soros-backed NGOs

Budapest (AFP) - Hungarian NGOs have long felt the heat under strongman Prime Minister Viktor Orban -- but they now fear that, emboldened by Donald Trump's victory, the right-wing premier will turn the screws even tighter.

First in line may be groups backed by Hungarian-born billionaire financier George Soros, whose foundation once funded the Oxford studies of a young Orban more than 25 years ago. Last week the deputy head of Orban's ruling party Fidesz, in power since 2010, said that non-governmental organisations should be "cleaned out of here".

Szilard Nemeth said that criticism of government policies by "fake" civil organisations set up to "influence politics" by Soros and others was "impermissible".

Notice how they call a democratically elected prime minister a “strongman” as if he is a dictator. I guess if you actually follow conservative policies, you’re not a legitimate leader.

Good. Soros has been disrupting countries all over the world for his own fun and profit.

He has a God complex and I hope he gets disabused of that notion really soon.

Soros needs to be held up to the public, ridiculed and demonized, and I hope that Trump starts tweeting on him. It will be impossible for the leftist media to defend him.

If he becomes to poster child of globalism to the common man, the other evil doers will take notice and retreat into their rat holes.

This one?

Oh? And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? This country is planted thick with laws, from coast to coast, Man's laws, not God's!
And if you cut them down, and you're just the man to do it, do you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then?
Yes, I'd give the Devil benefit of law, for my own safety's sake!

What do you expect? It's the aptly-named Yahoo News.

Interesting, a survivor of Progressive Leftist Indoctrination Propaganda, whom has deduced where the danger lies, how it progresses, and who is responsible for those events.

there may still be a few folks out there who haven’t an idea jsut HOW MUCH BETTER America (and Europe, and everywhere else) will be if we can only stop Soros (and put “his” money into a Recovery and Compesation Fund for all his victims)

"Strongman" Viktor Orban?

"Strongman"???

Democratically elected by a wide margin in elections arguably freer than ours.

In this context "strongman" means AFP doesn't like his non-suicide politics.

Soros needs to spend the rest of his miserable life in a small granite cell.
