‘Time to Drain the Swamp’ – Orban Says ‘Everyone Knew’ EU was Corrupt Before Scandal
Breitbart ^ | 12/17/2022 | Jack Montgomery

Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán says the massive corruption scandal in the European Union should be used as an opportunity to “drain the swamp” in Brussels.

An ongoing corruption scandal at the heart of the European Union has seen a Vice President of the European Parliament arrested, among others, and the offices of two human rights organisations shuttered, as Belgian law enforcement probe officials possibly being paid off as part of an influence operation by the sharia-governed State of Qatar, which is hosting the still-ongoing World Cup.

Evidence pictures shared with the Associated Press by Belgium’s Federal Judicial Police show literal briefcases filled with cash —  “a portion of the 1.5 million euro dollars found and seized by Belgian police in Brussels,” according to the news agency.

“This EU summit has been marked by the arrest, on corruption charges, of the left-wing vice-president of the European Parliament. Everyone knew that Brussels was full of corruption, but now it’s reached the stage at which the police have had to take action,” commented Prime Minister Orbán, in the EU power centre himself for an end-of-the-year European Council meeting, in comments shared on Facebook, an official translation of which has been seen by Breitbart London.

Orban is right, but as Trump discovered, the swamp and its creatures are powerful and will do anything necessary to avoid being drained.

I love Orban, b/c everyone on the left despises him.

When they formed the EU I predicted the next war in Europe. It’s well over due.

Proving once again, when like-minded individuals assume power, corruption is inevitable.

See locally, the uniparty.

Orban has done a good job for Hungary. Most importantly he has kept out the Muslim invaders and helped the Czechs and the Poles do the same. We could use a man like him here.
