Today Heather Cox Richardson reports that the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), a major force in the American conservative world, was directly funded by recently-ousted Hungarian President Victor Orban's government, support that was paid for by Hungarian taxpayers.
Speaking of this support, newly-elected President Péter Magyar said,
The state will not finance these things, neither the event called CPAC nor other related institutions such as the Mathias Corvinus Collegium and similar attached bodies. I believe the state should never have financed them in the first place, it was a crime.
US Vice President J. D. Vance spoke at the Mathias Corvinus Collegium during his recent visit to Hungary to campaign for Victor Orban.
Victor Orban, and his government, has been closely allied with Vladimir Putin's Russia for over a decade.
Today, the outgoing Hungarian Foreign Minister has been shredding classified documents.
End of True Thing 20. Opinion: We need to understand that the American conservative movement is allied with, and funded by, Vladimir Putin. And, also, they are criminals.
