Convo with my friend from Hungary tonight who left after Orban’s election.

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines.

The only question here is which drug-addled oligarch we're referring to
What if there were a coup, the US government fell to a drug-addled oligarch who seized control of our money, secrets, and levers of power, and Corporate media did not report on it?
