"Only love can save this world. So I stay. I fight, and I give... for the world I know can be. This is my mission, now. Forever." -- Wonder Woman, 2017
Magyar calls on the figurehead head of state Tamás Sulyok, as well as all high justice officials and other high officials appointed by Fidesz to resign immediately or they will be removed by the new government.
He also announces a constitutional reform and that Hungary is joining EPPO.
Orbán's electoral crushing is a far greater achievement than most people outside Hungary realise.
He systemically consolidated power for 16 years, fixed the electoral map, abused govt power for political purposes & censored media.
The hurdles that Hungarians overcame for this moment were immense.
"Congratulations to the Hungarian people, who...reject[ed] authoritarianism & corruption at the ballot box, & to Péter Magyar & the Tisza party on a decisive victory. Today’s result is a win for democracy, in Hungary & around the world." - Rep. Don Beyer (D-VA08) bluevirginia.us/2026/04/sund...
Péter Magyar victory speech:
"We want to make a country where no one is persecuted because they think differently or because someone loves in a different way to others."
He may not have campaigned as a liberal. But this is a huge change of direction and rhetoric from Orbán’s anti-LGBTQ+ crusade.
BREAKING: Hungary just saw a stunning political shakeup. Opposition leader Péter Magyar says Prime Minister Viktor Orbán personally called to congratulate him on his victory, marking the imminent end to Orbán’s long grip on power.
Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal.
Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November.
It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).
No more debate—just a historical fact. This presidency isn’t a failure; it’s a collapse. Record incompetence, zero accountability, and damage that will outlive the term. Worst. President. Ever.
The Trump administration has deported hundreds of people, including children, long-time U.S. residents, and those without criminal records to countries they are not from and without due process—even after courts ruled that this is illegal.
I’m pushing for an investigation.

Trump must be removed from office. He has no capacity to do the job, and he’s destroying the US and the world with incoherent flailing. He thinks he can bully and blackmail the whole world and will start WW3 or nuke someone eventually. He absolutely cannot he allowed to continue.
Choosing an utterly charmless dick as your nation’s diplomat in delicate geopolitical negotiations turns out not to have been so smart. Who could have guessed? Apparently, not stupid Donald.
Kaine: "You don't sucker punch somebody in a bar and then blame your buddies when they don't join the fight with you. If the president wanted the support of allies, he should've respected them instead of putting tariffs on their economies and trash talking them."
A new live tracker has been set up called "Trump's Take" and it currently shows the criminal President has used the presidency to rake in more than $2 billion.

This is how Ukrainians celebrated Easter today 🐣
Don't show this to Anna Paulina Luna! she insists that we "banned Christianity," and its going to be awkward 😁
If Eric Swalwell can be investigated for SA
Why can’t Trump?
Hilary and Bill Clinton testified and as Former President Clinton had to appear doesn’t that mean Trump has to as well?

Today marks 58 years since the Civil Rights Act of 1968 was signed into law by Lyndon B. Johnson, prohibiting discrimination in the sale, rental, and financing of housing.
It combated practices like redlining, which denied Black Americans access to mortgages and homeownership.
As the four astronauts stood side by side, linked arm in arm, Hansen said, "When you look up here, we are a mirror reflecting you, this is you."
"It's a special thing to be a human, and it's a special thing to be on planet Earth," said Commander Reid Wiseman.

These are the women who made Artemis II possible.
The last time the US landed on the moon in 1969, women couldn’t get a credit card without a co-signer.
Also- they made the calculations to make that happen too.

#BlueSkyVets The Artemis II mission stands as a watershed moment in the history of human space exploration, and unprecedented "firsts".
The most significant was the flawless piloting executed by Victor Glover, the first African American to pilot re-entry.

It’s funny to watch more and more high-profile conservatives suddenly realize that Trump is a sleazy and corrupt opportunist with no morality. The vast majority of us were well aware of this over 15 years ago. Sheesh.
The economy is a disaster, people in power won’t provide pre or postnatal care and are punishing women who even MISCARRY, gee I wonder why young people aren’t itching to get pregnant and churn out babies.
Fox News doc on lower fertility rate: "The problem is teens and young adults, from ages 15-19 the fertility rate is down 7%, and it's down 70% over the last two decades, meaning we're telling people that are young not have babies, to wait until they're in a more stable life situation"
A message from NASA astronaut Christina Koch who has now arrived safely back to Earth: "To everyone who has been following my journey, I want to sincerely thank you for your continued support — it truly means everything. Being part of the Artemis II mission is a personal milestone...
