    Viktor Orban, Hungary’s strongman, right-wing prime minister, soared to reelection victory on Sunday with a powerful supermajority in parliament — precisely the margin he needed to continue an overhaul of the country’s democratic constitution and system of checks and balances. On Monday morning, hours after the election results were announced, Orban’s representatives announced one of the first orders of business: What they are calling the “Stop Soros” bill is designed to crack down on liberal nongovernmental organizations, think tanks and other institutions that, in the eyes of the government, have worked against their agenda and on behalf of the migrants...
  • Globalist pearl-clutching over nationalist Viktor Orban's sweeping victory in Hungary election

    If you judge Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and his Fidesz party by their enemies, then their sweeping victory yesterday, winning a third term, was a triumph for good. Reuters calls him a "strongman" in its report of his victory, a term usually reserved for undemocratic dictators. The Associated Press settles for "conservative" as its headline adjective – no compliment in its lexicon, but accurate. But the journalists are being outdone by globalist politicians in Western Europe. The AP reports: Luxembourg's foreign minister says Germany, France and others should weigh in against what he calls a "tumor" of scaremongering after...

    The victory could embolden Orban to put more muscle into a Central European alliance against EU migration policies, working with other right-wing nationalists in Poland and Austria, and further expose cracks in the 28-nation European Union. The European Commission said it was looking forward to working with Hungary on many challenges. On Monday, a spokesman for Fidesz said one of the first laws to be passed by the new parliament could be legislation that would empower the government to ban NGOs that support migration and pose a "national security risk". The proposed legislation, dubbed "Stop Soros" by the government before...
  • George Soros Decries Hungary's PM Orban for Anti-Semitic Attacks 'Reminiscent of the 1930s'

    * Soros says he had been targeted by an administration "stoking anti-Muslim sentiment and employing anti-Semitic tropes reminiscent of the 1930s."* In July, Prime Minister Viktor Orban launched a nationwide television and billboard advertising campaign accusing Soros of devising Europe's refugee influx.* The Hungarian premier has often vilified Soros, whose ideals are squarely at odds with Orban's view that European culture is under an existential threat from migration and multiculturalism.Hungarian-born billionaire George Soros is denouncing a propaganda campaign waged against him by the government in his native country. Soros, whose political views are in stark contrast to Budapest's ruling Fidesz...

    Hungary will defend its tough new laws on non-governmental groups all the way to the European Court as the EU legal action against it was barely worth discussing, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said on Friday. The European Commission on Wednesday stepped up procedures against Hungary over restrictions on foreign funding for non-government groups which are seen as a way to target financier George Soros, a longstanding opponent of Orbán. Orbán, a fierce critic of perceived bureaucratic overreach from Brussels, said the document was a “laughing stock” and added his government would treat it as such in its reply. The EU...
  • Viktor Orban: European Union Is Following ‘Soros Migrant Plans’

    Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has claimed the European Union are implementing migration plans designed by left-wing billionaire Geroge Soros to bring in a million migrants per year to Europe with the help of his army of NGOs. Orbán claimed the EU and Soros wish to bring in the one million migrants annually to create an EU immigration force to undermine the national sovereignty of member states, Die Presse reports. According to Orbán, many heads of government across Europe agree with his government’s policy on migration but will only say so in private. He also said that because of the...

    Israel's foreign ministry has issued a statement denouncing U.S. billionaire George Soros, a move that appeared designed to align Israel more closely with Hungary ahead of a visit to Budapest next week by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Soros, a Hungarian-born Jew who has spent a large part of his fortune funding pro-democracy and human rights groups, has repeatedly been targeted by Hungary's right-wing government, in particular over his support for more open immigration. In the latest case, Prime Minister Viktor Orban has backed a campaign in which Soros is singled out as an enemy of the state. "Let's not allow...

    I warned you last week that Hungarian President Viktor Orban would have to be judged by the merits of his actions and watched VERY carefully. I said this because, as I noted in my article, President Orban was a protege of George Soros’s Soros Foundation, and, how given that George Soros is playing a key role in this “refugee crisis,” it seems very odd that Orban is so opposed to the “refugees,” yet at the same time, Hungary is the port of entry for most of them. I also noted another person in my article who was part of the...
