Since his election in 2010, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has transformed Hungary from a democracy into a quasi-authoritarian country. In Hungary today, elections, economic policies, and the media are warped to benefit Orbán and his conservative Fidesz Party. Orbán's government, with its consolidation of executive power, Christian nationalist and anit-LGBTQ policies served as inspiration for Project 2025, the Heritage Foundation's plan for Donald Trump's second term. Heritage Foundation president Kevin Roberts has called modern Hungary “not just a model for conservative statecraft but the model.”A new documentary film, Democracy Noir, shows how Orbán changed Hungarian politics. In the words of Budapest-based journalist Babbett Oroszi, Orbán has “hacked democracy” – quietly using the levers of democracy, rather than a violent revolution, to accomplish his aims.  The film tells the story of modern Hungary through the eyes of three three female members of Hungary's resistance – reporter Oroszi, nurse and activist Niko Antal, and Tímea Szabó, an opposition leader in Hungary's parliament. Our guest, director Connie Field, has followed Hungarian politics since the country's first years as a democracy in the early 1990s. An American progressive and award-winning documentarian, she has a shrewd eye on how Orban's actions are being mirrored in the United States. The episode also includes discussion of a new leader who observers think has a real chance of upending Orbán's hold on power in the 2026 election.LEARN MORE:Watch a trailer for the film, find out where it's being screened, or request a screeningDownload the discussion guide.Connie Field bio ABOUT THE SHOW The Making Peace Visible podcast is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin.

Le 3 octobre prochain auront lieu des élections législatives cruciales en République Tchèque. Elles pourraient marquer le retour au pouvoir de l'homme d'affaires eurosceptique Andrej Babis, et la défaite du premier ministre libéral Petr Fiala. Mais c'est un troisième homme qui jouera un rôle crucial dans ce scrutin : le dirigeant du parti d'extrême-droite SPD, Tomio Okamura. Un homme d'affaires, lui aussi, mais au parcours détonnant sur la scène politique tchèque. Hostile aux migrants, à l'aide à l'Ukraine, au « Pacte vert » et à l'UE, il coche toutes les cases ou presque de l'extrême-droite européenne. Mais son parcours et sa biographie tranche singulièrement avec ceux de Marine Le Pen, de Georgia Meloni ou de Geert Wilders. D'origine japonaise, il a passé une partie de son enfance dans un orphelinat praguois où il fut victime de brimades en raison de ses origines mêlées… Et ses deux frères, engagés, eux aussi, en politique, mais au centre et à gauche de l'échiquier politique, lui reprochent amèrement son virage ultraconservateur. « C'est un grand paradoxe de voir que le principal dirigeant d'extrême-droite tchèque, grand défenseur de l'identité tchèque, de la protection face aux migrations et aux influences extérieures se nomme Tomio Okamura, de mère tchèque et de père japonais, note Jacques Rupnik, professeur à Sciences-Po et fin connaisseur de l'Europe centrale, il a d'ailleurs tenté sa chance au Japon, mais il y a découvert que là-bas aussi, il pouvait souffrir de xénophobie ». Peluches et télé-réalité Parti au Japon à 18 ans, Tomio Okamura multiplie les petits boulots : chauffeur de taxi, vendeur de pop-corn, éboueur… Et finit par jeter l'éponge. À son retour à Prague, il se lance dans le secteur du tourisme avec des idées parfois étonnantes. « Il a cofondé une agence de voyages qui proposait d'envoyer votre peluche ou votre jouet à l'autre bout du monde pour y être photographié », s'amuse le politologue Michel Perottino, qui enseigne à l'Université Charles de Prague. « Il a aussi participé à une émission de télé-réalité sur l'entrepreneuriat et il est devenu vice-président de l'Association tchèque des agences de voyage ! », ajoute-t-il. Aujourd'hui âgé de 53 ans, l'homme d'affaires présente volontiers son parcours comme une « success story » digne d'Hollywood. Son bagout et son charisme indéniables lui permettent en tout cas de rapidement s'imposer sur la scène politique. Eurosceptique et anti-islam En 2015, il fonde le parti d'extrême droite SPD (Liberté et démocratie directe) et il engrange très vite de premiers succès électoraux puisqu'il remporte un peu plus de 10 % des voix aux élections législatives de 2017. Tomio Okamura se réclame de Marine Le Pen et de Donald Trump, milite pour une sortie de l'Union européenne et fustige le « diktat écologique » de Bruxelles. Sur l'islam, son discours particulièrement virulent le rapproche de Geert Wilders, le dirigeant de l'extrême droite néerlandaise. À partir de 2022 et de l'invasion générale de l'Ukraine par la Russie, il tient un discours très hostile aux réfugiés ukrainiens et dénonce l'aide militaire apportée à Kiev. « Le point de départ, et c'est ça qui peut être le plus important pour son électorat, c'est la très forte présence de réfugiés ukrainiens, principalement de femmes et d'enfants qu'il faut aider et qui obtiennent des allocations, pointe Michel Perottino, de l'université Charles de Prague. Ensuite, il y a un positionnement pro-russe, et un discours qui consiste à dire "faisons la paix à tout prix, et coupons les livraisons d'armes et de munitions aux Ukrainiens". Ce serait une décision très importante dans la mesure où la République tchèque a joué et joue encore un rôle crucial dans les livraisons de munitions à l'Ukraine ». Un « tournant » pour toute la région À la faveur du vent conservateur qui souffle sur l'Europe, Tomio Okamura peut ambitionner, désormais, sinon d'entrer au gouvernement, en tout cas de devenir le « faiseur de rois » du prochain scrutin. Grand favori des élections législatives qui auront lieu les 3 et 4 octobre prochain, l'ancien Premier ministre Andrej Babis est crédité de 30 % des voix et aura besoin d'un partenaire. Ce partenaire pourrait être le SPD de Tomio Okamura, crédité de 12 % des voix selon les derniers sondages. Un scénario qui serait un tournant pour le pays bien sûr, mais aussi pour toute l'Europe centrale. « Il y a actuellement un équilibre entre les quatre pays qui forment le groupe de Visegrad : d'un côté la Pologne et la République tchèque, dirigées par des gouvernements modérés, libéraux, pro-européens, décrypte le chercheur Jacques Rupnik. Et de l'autre, la Hongrie d'Orban et la Slovaquie de Robert Fico, qui sont sur une ligne nationale-populiste. Si Babis remporte l'élection et s'il forme un gouvernement avec le soutien de Tomio Okamura, il y aura alors un glissement vers Orban et Fico. Cela crée, en Europe centrale, un pôle national souverainiste fort et très hostile au soutien à l'Ukraine. Bref, cela recompose totalement le paysage politique de la région ». En attendant les résultats de ce scrutin décisif pour sa formation, une inconnue judiciaire de taille se dresse sur la route de l'homme d'affaires tchéco-japonais. Le SPD de Tomio Okamura est en effet poursuivi pour des affiches électorales ayant appelé à la haine – l'une d'entre elles montrant à un homme à la peau foncée, un couteau ensanglanté entre les dents. Selon la presse tchèque, le chef de file de l'extrême droite tchèque a déjà anticipé une éventuelle condamnation avec la fondation d'un nouveau parti qui pourrait succéder au SPD – une formation appelée, en toute modestie, Parti des soutiens de la démocratie et de Tomio Okamura.

Terza puntata dell'ottava stagione di J-TACTICS, la rubrica di radiomegliodiniente.com dedicata alla vecchia signora bianconera.La Juventus impatta nel suo primo pareggio in questo scorcio di campionato discretamente positivo.1-1 al Bentegodi di Verona.Tudor dunque divide la posta in palio come nel rocambolesco pari casalingo in Champions League col Borussia Dortmund e dopo 3 vittorie in campionato.I bianconeri passano in vantaggio con Conceicao, ma vengono poi raggiunti dal calcio di rigore di Orban nel finale del primo tempo.Col pari di Verona, la Juve sale a 10 punti, mentre gli scaligeri gialloblù di Zanetti salgono a 3 punti in classifica.Tudor propone Vlahovic al centro dell'attacco dall'inizio del match, si accomodano in panchina i nuovi acquisti David e Openda.In difesa riposa Bremer, quindi pacchetto difensivo composto da Kalulu, Gatti e Kelly.Sulla fascia destra spazio al portoghese Joao Mario.Al 19′ la Juve passa in vantaggio con un altro lusitano Chico Conceicao, che parte in slalom salta due avversari e batte il portiere gialloblù Montipò.Il Verona reagisce subito, gli ospiti bianconeri reggono e non succede praticamente nulla fino all'episodio incriminato che chiude il primo tempo: Joao Mario tocca un pallone spiovente in area col braccio sinistro e l'arbitro Rapuano fischia il rigore dopo essere stato richiamato al VAR, sbagliando tra l'altro l'indicazione dell'autore del fallo nel momento della comunicazione al pubblico.Orban dal dischetto non sbaglia anche se il suo tiro, viene toccato da Di Gregorio e si insacca in rete, 1-1 il risultato con il quale le squadre vanno negli spogliatoi.Tudor cambia le carte in tavola.Inserisce Koopmeiners per un opaco Locatelli, poi Adzic e Openda per Thuram e Vlahovic, praticamente inesistente e mal servito fino a quel momento.Ma è il Verona che fa prendere un gran spavento ai bianconeri andando a segno al '67 con Serdar, il quale si vede poi annullare per fuorigioco il gol del 2-1.Finisce dopo sette minuti di recupero con un pareggio forse sostanzialmente giusto, data una prestazione fiacca dei ragazzi di Mister Tudor, ma avvelenata da un arbitraggio scadente e mediocre da parte dell'arbitro Rapuano, il quale prima si fa condizionare da Aureliano al VAR, concedendo un rigore generosisssimo ai padroni di casa e successivamente non vedendo o comunque giudicando inspiegabilmente solo da ammonizione il colpo rifilato in pieno viso da Orban a Gatti."Mi hanno detto che non ha caricato", è stata la battuta sarcastica dell'allenatore bianconero Tudor nella conferenza stampa post partita.Di questo e altro parleremo in questa puntata!Diteci la vostra!Ecco i link dei nostri social:CANALE TELEGRAM:https://t.me/+TYOn7FZAQwet7MAtINSTAGRAM:https://instagram.com/jtactics_?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=TWITTER:https://twitter.com/RadioMDN?t=woKQltSFRUTw9qibbRZaJA&s=09

Listen, we heard Trump today at the U.N. talking crazy, but also saying Ukraine can get its territories back, and then some. As in, occupy Russia? We'll get into all that in this week's bonus show out later this week for our Patreon members. We'll also break down the crime cabal of Epstein, Trump, and Russia. More soon. For now, Happy New Year! 5786, to be precise. As Jewish families dip apples in honey and blow the shofar, we'd all do well to take inspiration: resilience is the tradition. Which is good, because democracy needs that same resilience right now. Fox News will tell you New York is a crime-hive communist brothel, while Donald Trump–the convicted felon, enthusiastic coup-plotter, and Orban fanboy–cheers on Christian nationalism like it's a Russian gift basket of underage girls. Thanks to Trump, RFK Jr.–a human centipede of conspiracies–used our tax dollars to declare war on Tylenol. MAGA and their Christian nationalist Charlie Kirk tent revival want to drag us back to an idealized 1950s where everyone smoked indoors for their health and also had polio. With MAGA using Charlie Kirk's laser light show memorial to fire up their base, we must and can fight back. That all-important work is in the states. Look to Virginia: a bellwether of the 2026 midterms. This week's guest, Shawn Werner, Organizing and Political Director of Sister District, joins Gaslit Nation to explain why the 2026 midterms start now. But will we even have elections? Here's some hope: groups like Sister District and the Democracy Security Project are training volunteers, protecting elections, and building the infrastructure we need to out-organize the new Jim Crow. Races to watch on election night, for any indication of a blue and angry red MAGA-regrets wave, include Kimberly Pope Adams in House District 82, Lily Franklin at Virginia Tech in District 41, and Leslie Mehta's campaign for the House of Delegates. Win them, and we prove momentum is on our side–and we lay the groundwork to build a victory engine to overcome Trump's desperate shenanigans in 2026. Consider this episode your official invitation to Gaslit Nation's Halloween Party with Sister District on Wednesday, October 22nd, from 6 to 8 p.m. ET. We'll be dressed up in costumes like our lives depend on it and phonebanking for Virginia. Because democracy cannot defend itself. Fight back now, because fighting back in the MAGA Gulag will be infinitely harder. For more on how to join forces with Sister District in these precious days and weeks ahead, and plant seeds of hope wherever you live, check out SisterDistrict.com. And again, don't miss this week's bonus show on Epstein, Trump, and Russia. Look out for that soon.

So where exactly is Trump's America? According to the Brookings fellow Jonathan Rauch, the world's largest economic, military and cultural power is “half way to Hungary” - the small, landlocked Central European country run by an equally small and landlocked man called Viktor Orban. For Rauch, this suggests that America is on its way to becoming the sort of pathetically petty patrimonial state that the wannabe dictator Orban is trying to establish in Hungary. But the idea of the world's dominant superpower being “halfway to Budapest” sounds more like the title of a characteristically absurd central European novel. It suggests that Trump's America is, in fact, currently lost in the mid-Atlantic. It's nowhere. And if making America great again really does require borrowing anything from a country as small and landlocked as Hungary, then I fear for the historical significance of both Trump and his MAGA movement. Surely they could come up with a more original playbook than that?1. America is Following the “Hungarian Playbook” of Modern Authoritarianism Rauch warns that Trump is deploying Viktor Orbán's four-part strategy: sue critics into bankruptcy, use regulatory power to threaten licenses, buy out media outlets, and intimidate advertisers. This represents a new form of authoritarianism that doesn't require tanks or military coups.2. The Rise of the “Woke Right” - Postmodern Tactics Adopted by Conservatives The right has borrowed from postmodern philosophy the idea that there's no objective truth, only power and narrative control. This creates a “postmodern right” that focuses on winning stories rather than establishing facts - exemplified by claims about vaccine dangers or election fraud.3. Constitutional Crisis is Already Underway, Not Coming Rauch argues we're not heading toward a constitutional crisis - we're already in one. He points to executive orders targeting political enemies and the “naked politicization” of prosecutorial systems as evidence that democratic norms have already been breached.4. 2028, Not 2026, Will Be the Real Test While Rauch expects the 2026 midterms to be relatively fair (70-80% likelihood), he's deeply concerned about 2028. The administration won't have enough time to fully implement election interference by 2026, but 2028 could see systematic attempts to rig the democratic process.5. Resistance Requires Slowing Down Authoritarian “Shock and Awe” The most effective resistance strategy is to slow down Trump's rapid implementation of authoritarian measures through litigation and civil society pushback. Early capitulation doesn't work - it only invites more demands. The key is preventing the normalization of antidemocratic behavior.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

In this episode, Olu discusses Nigeria's drop in the latest FIFA rankings, where the Super Eagles have fallen from 44th to 45th in the world and slipped out of the African top five. Just a year ago, after finishing 2nd in the AFCON final, Nigeria was ranked 28th, a reminder of how far the team has regressed. Olu also reflects on Nigeria's past dominance in World Cup qualifiers between 2004 and 2017, contrasting it with today's struggles.Elsewhere, FIFA has charged South Africa for fielding an ineligible player against Lesotho in the World Cup qualifiers. If confirmed, this could reshape Group C into a four-horse race between South Africa, Benin, Nigeria, and Rwanda. Olu also reviews standout performances from Nigerian stars like Alex Iwobi, Gift Orban, Raphael Onyedika, George Ilenikhena, Terem Moffi, Paul Onuachu, Cyriel Dessers, and Kelechi Iheanacho, as well as a look at the Under-20 World Cup squad heading to Chile.

I heard many people complain about the poor sound quality of DAB+. Dennis van Benthem of Orban, the makers of the OPTIMOD, claim that DAB can sound great even at 48 kbit/s . But it would be a mistake to feed sound processed for FM into a digital encoder. On AM and FM, radio stations may want to sound loud. It even increases coverage. The boomy sound of radio DJ voices on FM seems to have become fashionable. But we live in a digital age. Do we need processing on DAB+ or on AAC-encoded internet streams? Thnaks Dennis for going into the technical details. photo credits to Chantal Mateboer Jean-Paul Linnartz @ Radio4brainport.org

Politikversteher nennen es den „Vibe Shift“: Ob Trump, Orban oder die AfD – weltweit ist die extreme Rechte auf dem Vormarsch. Schuld daran, so der Autor Jens Jessen kürzlich in der ZEIT, sind die Linken selbst. Sie hätten den politischen Gegner durch ihre „identitätspolitische Semantik“ erst stark gemacht. „Wokeness, Diversity, Gendergerechtigkeit“, so Jessen, „sind das größte Geschenk, dass die Linke der Rechten machen konnte.“ Ist das so? Treiben woke Kulturkämpfer mit ihren identitätspolitischen Zumutungen potentielle Wähler der Mitte in die Arme von AfD & Co.? Ist gesellschaftliche Spaltung der Preis für emanzipatorische Politik? Und was ist wirklich links? Michael Risel diskutiert mit Jens Jessen – DIE ZEIT; Dr. Nils C. Kumkar – Soziologe, Universität Bremen; Lea Susemichel – Journalistin und Publizistin, Wien

Ruth Elkrief veut rendre hommage aujourd'hui aux policiers qui vont embrasser leurs enfants avant le coucher et qui se demandent s'ils ne seront pas à l'hôpital demain soir. Et pourtant, ils ne seront pas sur la frontière ukrainienne, ni à Gaza ni sur aucun front de guerre. Ils seront face à des centaines d'enragés, des Black Blocs qui n'ont d'autres buts que de détruire et de semer le chaos. Elle estime qu'il faut remercier ces policiers à l'avance, car ils vont permettre aux manifestants de défiler dans le calme. Pascal Perri a expliqué comment la colère diffuse, qu'on sent dans l'opinion, se matérialise dans les rayons des supermarchés. Il a rappelé, en passant, qu'une journée d'activité en France équivaut à 8 milliards d'euros. Donc, si demain, par exemple, on perd 10% de ce chiffre d'affaires, l'État aurait un manque à gagner de 800 millions d'euros. Depuis le début de l'année, la tendance à la consommation en quantité a augmenté, mais les Français n'ont toujours pas digéré les chocs d'inflation que nous avons subis. Pour Pascal Perri, les stratégies d'achat ont évolué. Il constate une fragmentation de la consommation aujourd'hui. Le 11 juin dernier, le Parlement hongrois a adopté une loi sur la protection de l'identité locale. Le texte était entré en vigueur le 1er juillet 2025. Elle donne à chaque municipalité le pouvoir de contrôler ceux qui peuvent s'installer sur son territoire. Selon le gouvernement Orban, cette loi vise à protéger les communautés locales contre les "niveaux incontrôlés d'immigration interne et d'acquisition immobilière à des fins d'investissement".  Abnousse Shalmani trouve que ce texte est tellement flou et se demande comment il va être appliqué. Du lundi au vendredi, à partir de 18h, David Pujadas apporte toute son expertise pour analyser l'actualité du jour avec pédagogie. Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Die Demokratie verabschiedet sich leise: Institutionen werden ausgehöhlt, Eliten diskreditiert und Feindbilder installiert, sagt Extremismusforscher Peter Neumann. Ein Podcast vom Pragmaticus.Das Thema:Die da oben, die sind nicht das Volk. Das sind die Eliten, die Bürokraten des Deep State aber sicher nicht wir, das Volk – so denken viele und strömen zu rechtspopulistischen Parteien. Es ist ein weltweiter Trend. Dabei folgen viele rechte Parteien einem Drehbuch, das Viktor Orbán in Ungarn vorgibt. Feinde von innen, Feinde von außen und das Versprechen, dass alles anders wird, sind gemeinsame Muster.Das polarisiert Gesellschaften, die Spaltung lässt sich auch an der Sprachverwirrung erkennen. Was ist rechts, was links, was von beiden radikal? Wo sind die Grenzen zum Faschismus und was hat das alles mit Nazis zu tun? Bedeutung verändert sich. Das ist Teil der Demokratiekrise.Unser Gast in dieser Folge: Peter Neumann ist ein deutscher Politikwissenschaftler, Professor für Security Studies am King's College in London. Er beschäftigt sich mit Extremismus und Terrorismus. Eben ist sein neues Buch  erschienen, das er zusammen mit Richard Schneider geschrieben hat.Dies ist ein Podcast von Der Pragmaticus.

Van az, amikor nem fogod meg a párod kezét, mert túl sokan néznek, meg azt sem akarod, hogy úgy nézzenek rád. És van az, amikor a miniszterelnököd be akar tiltani. Amikor a kormány bejelentette, hogy nem engedi a Pride-ot – sőt, törvényt is hoztak ellene –, még a legkitartóbbak is elbizonytalanodtak. Aztán több mint 350 ezren vonultak végig a városon. Békésen, szabadon. Mi történt a háttérben? Milyen belülről, amikor minden megborul?

Van az, amikor nem fogod meg a párod kezét, mert túl sokan néznek, meg azt sem akarod, hogy úgy nézzenek rád. És van az, amikor a miniszterelnököd be akar tiltani.Amikor a kormány bejelentette, hogy nem engedi a Pride-ot – sőt, törvényt is hoztak ellene –, még a legkitartóbbak is elbizonytalanodtak. Aztán több mint 350 ezren vonultak végig a városon. Békésen, szabadon.Mi történt a háttérben? Milyen belülről, amikor minden megborul?

El primer ministro de Hungría, Viktor Orban, opina que los líderes de la Unión Europea utilizan el conflicto de Ucrania para encadenar financieramente a sus países miembros y, de esta forma, subyugarlos y despojarlos de su soberanía. Enfatizó que Bruselas está haciendo un último esfuerzo para preservar su esquema actual.

Premier przegrywa w sondażach, ale jeszcze nie przegrał wyborów. To szczwany lis - mówi ekspert. Nawet gdyby jednak Orban przegrał, to on nie tylko wprowadził nową konstytucję na Węgrzech, ale obudował ją tak zwanymi ustawami okołokonstytucyjnymi, które można zmienić tylko kwalifikowaną większością dwóch trzecich, o które, jak wiemy, bardzo trudno w demokracjimówi prof.

C dans l'air du 27 août 2025 - Trump : la dérive dictatoriale ?« Beaucoup d'Américains aimeraient avoir un dictateur ». Cette phrase prononcée par Trump ce lundi n'a pas manqué de faire réagir. Beaucoup voient une dérive autoritaire chez le président américain, qui pourtant dit « ne pas aimer les dictateurs ». Son amitié avec Poutine, Orban ou encore Bukele, le président du Salvador, indique pourtant le contraire. D'autant que les signes de dérive se sont multipliés récemment, comme avec le déploiement de la garde nationale pour "nettoyer" un Washington "envahi par les gangs", ou sa volonté de rétablir la peine de mort dans cette ville.Mais c'est aussi la tentative de limogeage d'une gouverneure de la Fed (la banque centrale des États-Unis) qui inquiète. Trump a cherché à virer Lisa Cook sur des allégations de fraude pour un prêt immobilier personnel. Ce renvoi accentue la pression sur cette institution indépendante. Trump avait prévenu qu'il était disposé à "virer" Lisa Cook si elle ne démissionnait pas elle-même. "Je ne démissionnerai pas", avait fait savoir l'intéressée dans un communiqué.Derrière cette affaire, la tentative de reprendre en main la politique monétaire américaine. Trump multiplie les coups de force interventionnistes envers la Réserve fédérale depuis son retour à la Maison Blanche. Le président américain, qui ne cesse de réclamer une diminution des taux d'intérêt par la Fed, attaque sans relâche son président Jerome Powell dans l'espoir d'accélérer son départ, et de le remplacer par une personne plus proche de lui. Cette institution tenant tête à Trump devient un symbole de résistance.Pendant ce temps, l'électorat pro-Trump continue de soutenir celui qu'ils estiment être le défenseur d'une majorité blanche déclassée. C dans l'air est allé dans le Wisconsin à la rencontre de ces Américains inquiets dans l'avenir, mais ayant l'espoir que Trump redonne sa grandeur à l'Amérique.Alors, jusqu'où ira la dérive autoritaire de Donald Trump ? Pourquoi celui-ci est-il en guerre contre la Réserve fédérale ? Qui sont ces Américains pro-Trump qui se sentent méprisés ?LES EXPERTS :Nicole BACHARAN - Historienne et politologue, spécialiste des États-Unis, éditorialiste à Ouest FranceLaurence HAIM - Journaliste spécialiste des Etats-UnisGallagher FENWICK - Grand reporter, spécialiste des questions internationalesCorentin SELLIN - Historien spécialiste des États-Unis, chroniqueur aux Jours

BUDAPEST: ORBAN COMPLAINS OF THE EU DEAL. VICTORIA HERCZEGH. 1949

From BBLs to American Eagle Nazi Aestetic, this is a banger. Heavy International coverage from the Pad Thai scuffle in Thailand and Cambodia, to new "revolutionary" incentives in Ukraine and Russia, Putin not stopping in Ukraine is back in the Mainstream minds, Moldova and Georgia fall among the mix. The EU Tariff Deal pops into the discussion as well as Trump's new deadline. Some kids in NYC figured out how to steal $17 million in 3 days, and a couple of white people want to return to the land.

Take a look at Conducttr's services and its crisis exercise software at: https://www.conducttr.comThis is a conversation with Szabolcs Panyi, a Hungarian investigative journalist. I wanted to talk to Szabolcs because something remarkable has been happening in Hungarian politics. Viktor Orban, the prime minister who has ruled Hungary for over almost two decades is now for the first time ever, losing by a large margin in the polls to a new challenger. The elections are less than a year from now and it's starting to look more and more likely that Viktor Orban's rule might be coming to an end. And so we discuss why - who is Orban's new challenger, why is he able to succeed where so many before failed, and what would his victory mean for Hungary but also for Russia, Ukraine and European politics at large. 

Fresh off its award-winning run in Europe, Democracy Noir arrives in the United States as a very timely documentary film about how Viktor Orbán politically reshaped Hungary. It paints an incisive portrait of how Orbán used a free and democratic election to install authoritarian rule, enjoying widespread approval from Hungarian nationalists as well as from conservatives around the world inclined to his illiberal views. He changed the constitution, took over the courts and the media, and dismantled the rule of law. Admired by Donald Trump and the Heritage Foundation, Orban's influence helped shape Project 2025 and the current policies of the Republican Party. Democracy Noir tells this story through the activism of its three subjects: opposition politician Timea Szabo, journalist Babett Oroszi, and nurse Nikoletta (Niko) Antal. It details how unchecked power can quickly remove rights that once were taken for granted, and it shows how three women come to terms with their country's unravelling social and cultural landscape. Studying the recent history of another country whose political trajectory mirrors your own can bring clarity to your situation.

A state funeral has been held in Iran for military commanders and nuclear scientists, killed during the 12-day conflict with Israel. Also: Budapest Pride march draws huge crowds in defiance of Orban legal threats.

With the world on the brink of another war, there's no one more essential to hear from than Anne Applebaum, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian and author of Gulag, Iron Curtain, Red Famine (which cites Andrea's grandfather, a Holodomor survivor), Twilight of Democracy, and Autocracy Inc. In this urgent conversation, we go to the frontlines of authoritarianism, from MAGA's playbook at home to Putin's alliances abroad, from Orban's Hungary to the rising threat of war with Iran. We begin in Poland. In 2023, a broad democratic coalition ousted the far-right, anti-LGBTQ+ Law and Justice party, which had spent years eroding democratic institutions. But in a razor-thin presidential race this year, that same authoritarian force clawed its way back. The takeaway? Democracy isn't a destination. It's a constant, high-stakes battle. “Everybody always wants to write the story of populism and say that it's over, or it's here for good, or we're finished, or we've won. And that's not what the story is going to look like,” says Applebaum. “This is the ongoing struggle that all of us will be in, probably for the next few decades, maybe into the foreseeable future. The argument about the nature of the state is now here with us. And neither one side nor the other has achieved a definitive victory, I would say, either in Europe or in the United States.” Then, Iran. Trump launched airstrikes without congressional approval or public debate, risking another U.S. war. Many in the Iranian opposition welcome blows to the brutal regime, but without strategy or legality, this is more of Trump's lawless chaos. Meanwhile, Putin watches. His alliance with Iran is not ideological, but tactical, with one shared mission: destabilize democracies and sow chaos worldwide. Applebaum discusses how Hungary became the MAGA model, what Poland's resistance can teach the U.S., and why the fight for democracy is far from over. This isn't a time for hope alone. It's a time to act. Because autocracy isn't resting. And neither can we. Want to enjoy Gaslit Nation ad-free?

Did betrayal doom Constantinople in 1453, or was its fall an inevitable clash of empires? In this insightful episode of the Jeremy Ryan Slate Show, we take a deep dive into one of history's most pivotal moments—the fall of Constantinople.
