Trump has PDS - Pope Derangement Syndrome

The victory of the opposition in Hungary yesterday, like the Polish election in 2023, is a victory for democracy, not just in Europe but around the world.

the courage of ordinary people @gregsargent.bsky.social

In his tirade against MAGA war critics, Trump blasted Alex Jones for calling Sandy Hook a hoax. This seemed odd. So I went back and checked. At the time Trump hailed Jones as "amazing" and rebuffed demands that he denounce lies about the shooting. New from me: newrepublic.com/article/2089...

People celebrating freedom in Budapest! This is great news for Ukraine as Hungary was a blocker on aid and potentially joining the EU. This is bad news for Israel as Hungary was a blocker for sanctions against Israel for its actions. This is great news for the world.

It’s 1:00 am in downtown Budapest at Rákóczi square. By all indications, the party is just getting started. 🔥 It’s a rather cathartic feeling getting rid of an autocrat who’s had a chokehold on the nation for sixteen consecutive years. 🙏🏼🇭🇺🕊️ #Hungary

remember this last summer? the huge crowd defying the ban on Budapest's Pride parade last summer was a rehearsal for massing together & sticking it to fascists

So happy for all Hungarians, but especially for my husband’s family in Budapest, and for family members who had to leave Hungary to finish their education after Orban shut down their university. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Massive street party in Budapest right now: huge crowds dancing, hugging, crying, and opening bottles. (Reuters)

The energy in Budapest tonight is absolutely incredible. Unlike anything I’ve seen anywhere in the world. Every bridge, metro station and street is full of celebration. Literally the entire city. Follow me if you love this

Never seen the city so exultant, Budapest Celebrations. Follow me if you love this energy and know its coming to USA

Budapest ht: @anneapplebaum.bsky.social

Today, the people of #Hungary toppled their tyrant. America, our return to democracy requires our full attention. We can see it can be done!

Well, Mike Allen just doesn't care. @axios.com @wsj.com

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.

Magyar now polling third in the Iowa caucus.

I’ll never get tired of watching people in Budapest celebrating getting rid of Viktor Orbán. I’m dancing along with the people of Hungary! 💃

The Hungarian people wisely refused to listen to these grifting scumbags.

more seriously congrats to the hungarian people for kicking that asshole out

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.

As Hungary votes, would recommend this piece about how Viktor Orban has used public money to bankroll an international ultraconservative network - including Roger Scruton cafes and €10k a month for failed Reform candidate Matt Goodwin democracyforsale.substack.com/p/orbans-brits

BREAKING: Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán has called Péter Magyar to concede defeat in today's election. With 53.45% of votes counted, Magyar's TISZA looks set to secure a super majority. A defeat for Putin, a defeat for Trump, a victory for Europe, and above all, a victory for the Hungarian people.

Hi Trump. Hi Vance. #Hungary 🥳

Times continues to circle the drain. @tylerpager.bsky.social

The Biden administration was steadfast and focused on establishing a strong economy and infrastructure for future growth. Imagine where we’d be if that plan was left in place for 4 more years.

all Vance ever wanted was to fluff trump. @nytimes.com

Pope Leo, clearly denouncing Trump and Hegseth, decries the "omnipotence that surrounds us and is becoming increasingly unpredictable and aggressive... Even the holy Name of God, the God of life, is being dragged into discourses of death.... Enough of war!" www.vatican.va/content/leo-...

we have always blocked the strait in westasia

JCPOA negotiations took almost two years. What were they thinking could happen in a day? Vance must have been pissed about Trump making him the face of this doomed process.

How stupid can you be?! So the US is going to fire missiles at allies' ships?

How the fuck is the president and Secretary of State at a UFC fight in Miami while war negotiations affecting the world economy are falling apart. And I know that MFer isn’t going to try to play golf tomorrow too.

"TRUMP IS CRUSHING IT!" - Mike Allen, @axios.com

Disgusting. All these assholes need to be removed from office and tried for war crimes before an International tribunal.

Did Iran offer to rename the Strait of Hormuz to the Strait of Trump? Because if they did that I'm pretty sure he'd let them have all the nukes they want.

“It’s difficult to cover him in a way that conveys how unhinged he is. Journalists are trained to be like, ‘OK, what did he say that was newsworthy?’ So you convey that to your audience. But in reality, when you actually watch, you see he's full of hatred, lying constantly, and very incoherent.”

that's my take. @cnn.com @jaketapper.bsky.social @mkraju.bsky.social And THEN Iran wouldn't even apologize!!! 😭

What a shock. They started something they could finish because they think they can bully their way to everything. And now they can’t bully it to an end and they have literally no other tools in their toolbox because they’re impotent little boys who don’t understand *anything* about the world.

Awww. But @cnn.com was pumping him up so much as The Peacemaker(TM)!!!!! @jaketapper.bsky.social @mkraju.bsky.social No one could have predicted he would FAIL... 🤣

Folks now raising light and hope to Magyar are possible because of the courage of crowds who came out in defiance before. Last summer, notably, people came out in full force against the ban on pride - a familiar assault on freedom in prep for the election. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j....

www.forbes.com/sites/antoni... @forbes.com Meanwhile, trump is posting video of a hammer attack and pretending to be outraged, after he incited the same kind of attack on the Pelosis.

The fact he’s bragging about it (again) means he also thinks everybody is stupid

The one thing that I've noticed is cheaper over the past year: bourbon whiskey. Thanks, Canada!

Spanish PM Pedro Sánchez: Let us not allow a new Gaza in Lebanon. In the face of violations of international law, Europe must act consistently if it wants the rest of the world to support us.

"I think that a lot of this stuff [Iran, Venezuela] that's happening now is because of the Epstein files...as a distraction because I think that they're that bad." @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social looks at Trump voters who think he’s trying to bury the Epstein story under a pile of fresh chaos.
