I think Greg is correct, but Americans need to be aware that Magyar’s Tisza government is aggressively going after every Fidesz official, removing them, using every lever of the state to yank them out of power. This is far more aggressive and rapid than anything proposed in the US so far.

As someone who stayed, it’s both. Liberal/left discourse hollowed out completely as people left, which gave the false impression of a cultural shift, and that drove some people to the right because they can’t distinguish between real life and Twitter.

Household debt at a record high. Student loan defaults at a record high. Credit card debt at a near record high. Meanwhile, corporate profits are the highest they’ve ever been. CEOs are paid 325x more than their typical workers. U.S. billionaire wealth is up 30% in a year. It's unsustainable.

John Driscoll built a multibillion-dollar healthcare company by doing something most CEOs won't: Paying his workers a living wage. Now he's calling for a $25 minimum wage, because he's seen firsthand what happens when workers get paid a fair wage. connecticut.news12.com/2026/09/21/a...

An unlikely voice calls for $25 minimum wage – a former healthcare CEO from Stamford
John Driscoll, of Stamford, was CEO of CareCentrix and head of U.S. health care for Walgreens. His new book, "Pay the People!" argues that higher salaries equal more profitability – not less.

There is an absurd amount of money being funneled into local PDs, sheriffs' offices, state highway patrols, etc. through this program. The federal govt. is dangling billions in DHS and DOJ funding (primarily from OBBBA + this year's reconciliation bill) to encourage agencies to participate.

The logic of collective resistance is sound. Absolutely infuriating that institutions, industries, even law firms caved to this convicted, malignant narcissist President. NO Kings & the people in Minneapolis have shown the way. We all have a voice in November to add to the “collective resistance.”

ICE cannot do what it’s doing without local law enforcement. They need their manpower and infrastructure. That means if you want to stop ICE you are going to have to confront police collaboration and police power. I’m sorry but progressive hopes of avoiding this conflict are a recipe for failure.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.
