#Hungary, led by an #autocrat, votes on his measure to ban #LGBTQ+ pride. The measure, sure to pass, will also provide a constitutional basis for denying the gender identities or sexual characteristics of minority groups, and allow for some Hungarians to have their citizenship suspended if they are deemed to pose a threat to Hungary’s security or sovereignty. https://apnews.com/article/hungary-constitutional-amendment-lgbtq-rights-710e5dc9005f0c802cb342f32afacbd5

John Bolton (Trump’s former national security adviser) sums up Trump’s “relationship” with Putin and Xi Jinping perfectly.

For that reason, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that #Trump’s lawyers—despite running roughshod over #Congress, the #states, the #press, & the #CivilService—were somewhat slower to defy the federal courts, & have fast-tracked cases to #SCOTUS, seeking a judicial imprimatur for novel #PresidentialPowers. The #courts, unlike the legislature, remain useful to an #autocrat in a #DualState.

CBCANALYSIS | U.S. could lose democracy status, says global watchdog | CBC NewsPossibly defying a court order. Urging his Justice Department to prosecute nemeses. Repeatedly calling the media 'illegal.' Declaring a predecessor's pardon null and void. U.S. President Donald Trump has done these things in the past few days.
"A Judge Ordered Deportation Planes to Turn Around. The White House Didn’t Listen.
A New York Times review of flight data showed that at the time of a federal judge’s order, two flights were in the air, and one had not yet taken off. "

Much of what the U.S. president has done to curb independent #media echoes the #Hungarian #autocrat Viktor Orbán’s playbook.

“‘People trying to crawl up Starmer’s arse’: the reality of MPs’ responses to DWP cuts”

@guardian @Independent @thetimes
“This lack of genuine debate around DWP cuts which could result in disabled people’s deaths is shocking, but no longer surprising from a Labour Party looking more like Reform every day”
I actually feel such disgust watching this. The US is an embarrassment and their leaders' absolute stupidity is endangering the lives and livelihoods of millions of Europeans, especially Ukrainians and those in Poland and the Baltics.
When even the New York Post calls you out.

I’m old enough to remember last month when an attempted #coup in #SouthKorea got people to #march in the streets until the would-be #autocrat was deposed.
We should do that.
