🚨🇺🇸 It seems we're in the midst of a GOP civil war... Which side are you on?

This exchange between the current Hungarian foreign minister and Lavrov should quite literally never be forgotten

Hungary’s election campaign is closing with Viktor Orbán on the defensive and a visible groundswell forming around Tisza, and the two events last night showed that. In Székesfehérvár, Orbán spoke to around 3,000 supporters in a town square. In Budapest, 120,000+ people packed Heroes' Square for a seven-hour concert, officially a civil society event, not a Tisza rally, but the connection was obvious. Orbán's campaign has ended defensively. The early fear messaging that Ukraine will drag Hungary into war and that Tisza is Kyiv's proxy didn't land the way he needed it to. By the final week he'd shifted to a softer argument: no Hungarian money for Ukraine. More durable, but less emotive. And he's been busy firefighting the Orbán-Putin phone call transcript showing him offering to help Russia "in anything," and the Szijjártó recordings showing him briefing Lavrov on EU meetings. Tisza, meanwhile, has added a new dimension to its closing argument. Beyond corruption and collapsed public services, the campaign has started to show the regime breaking down from within. Szabó Bence, a serving National Investigation Bureau detective, went public describing how intelligence services ran a fabricated operation against Tisza's IT staff. Army captain Szilveszter Pálinkás, until recently the public face of military recruitment, described the defence forces in moral freefall and revealed that Orbán's son had planned a Chad mission projecting 50% casualties. Both appeared on stage at Heroes' Square on Friday night. Today is the last campaign day. Hungary has no electoral silence law, so both sides are still actively rallying as I write this. Polls diverge wildly and the result is genuinely uncertain, but the momentum is clear. ---
