A government ban on Hungary’s Pride parade backfired Saturday as over 100,000 people marched through Budapest, far more than usual
PM Viktor Orban warned people to stay away, threatening “clear legal consequences.” But the warnings only turned a modest event into a mass rally against his government

A smart and evil man manipulated a stupid and evil man into a war against a fanatical and evil regime.

Stephen Miller serves a deranged authoritarian who thinks he is all powerful and can do whatever he wants. He is wrong. Our job as lawyers is to stand up to him and defeat him in court.
I, for one, will never bow down or seek a deal with Trump. I will stand tall and fight.

-The side facing outward, in English, tells the authorities that you know your rights.
