Washington’s “Color Revolutions” in Europe
The New American ^ | Vol. 39, No. 08 04/24/2023 | Angeline Tan

Samantha Power, the current administrator for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), announced in February 2023 that she was in Budapest, Hungary, to support “democratic institutions” and “civil society.” 

Hungary, a member of the EU and NATO, has a democratically elected government presently spearheaded by conservative and pro-life Prime Minister Viktor Mihály Orbán, who won reelection to an unprecedented fourth term in a 2022 landslide victory. Notably, Orbán’s government has refrained from backing the U.S.-led strategy to exacerbate the Russia-Ukraine crisis since the latter’s onset in 2022. Additionally, Orbán’s government rejects the globalist principles of open immigration, same-sex marriage, and LGBTQ+ propaganda for minors.

Little wonder then that Power went to Budapest to help support a “free and diverse press in Hungary,” according to a post on her Twitter profile. Cutting through the globo-speak, this simply means she is working for anti-patriotic, pro-Western, and anti-Orbán values. According to the logic of globalists and their sycophants, because Hungarian voters still select, in free and fair elections, politicians such as Orbán who are disdained by Washington and Brussels, democracy is therefore greatly stifled in Hungary.

Nonetheless, Power’s assertion about the need for an independent press in Hungary — implying that the media landscape is largely controlled by Orbán’s government — is not entirely watertight. In an article in the Hungarian Review, Boris Kalnoky, a veteran journalist for Die Welt in Germany and present director of the media school at Mathias Corvinus Collegium in Budapest, had this to say:

Hungary’s media market was not a naturally evolved, healthy, and independent media environment before Orbán regained power in 2010. It was, to a significant extent, a political market, and that market had been cornered by the left. Such media as existed was as a rule connected to political parties or at least political...

NeoCons are Trotskyites and/or war profiteers. Nothing they say has anything to do with American values. They need to be removed from any position of power

Samantha Power. Hell, ANOTHER foreigner running things. They utterly infest our state department. No wonder foreign policy revolves around old world bullcrap and concerns and not American concerns.

A couple years ago, I listened to a podcast interview of Srda Popovic by Jordan Harbinger

Popovic outlined the process of “color revolution” quite clearly - albeit in his attempt to justify and popularize it.

Just listening to them talk about how “cool” it all was - I realized BOTH of them are CIA sponsored hacks.

Color Revolutions are simply another way of invading a sovereign country!

We've done it for years, and now "the jig is up!

She’s married to Cass Sunstein, a propagandist known for the idea of the “nudge” as a way to make people do what you want. They are pure evil.

I’m sorry to say it - but WE are the (neo) Marxists now

Our government is globalist, atheistic, pro-perversion, utopian, statist and “green” - and we spread subversion through covert action and propaganda throughout the globe in the name of this ideology and empire.

does that sound like anyone in the 20th century?

So you finally admit it’s not a Ukraine/Russia war, it’s a US Feral Government/Russia proxy war.

Is she a sexual weirdo, of color or NEPO - (rich powerful daddy)? Cause she sure as hell wasn’t hired based on intellect or merit.

State Department idiots in Afghanistan pushed sexual weirdness... rather than rule of law. How’d that work out? OUr ‘ideas’ were gone and buried before the last plane left with it’s tail between it’s legs.

Our former ‘friends’ will be moving away from the US because the people at the top here are NOT ONLY not up to the job - they’re stupid and corrupt.
