A bit shocking it has come to this that European countries have to warn their LGBTQ+ citizens to use caution when travelling to the US as if they were travelling to e.g. Uganda, Gambia or Sudan: www.thepinknews.com/2025/03/25/e...
European countries urge LGBTQ+ travellers to use caution when travelling to US
European countries including Denmark, Germany and Finland have warned LGBTQ+ tourists to be careful when visiting the US, in the wake of President Trump's anti LGBTQ+ executive orders.

Trump on his cabinet members using Signal to text war plans to a reporter: "I don't know anything about it. I'm not a big fan of The Atlantic. To be it's a magazine that's going out of business. But I know nothing about it. You're saying that they had what?"

History repeats itself - without mass protesting, Niemöller's poem will ring true again:
"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists (...)
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."
"First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Just hours after President Trump called for the impeachment of a federal judge who ruled against his deportation of hundreds of Venezuelans over the weekend, House Republicans introduced a measure to do just that.

Viktor Orbán’s attempt to ban the Hungarian Pride march is one of the strongest examples yet of his Fidesz party’s efforts to win back extremist voters as its rival surges in the polls.
Orbán tries to ban Pride in Hungary as polls show rival surging
