“As a matter of urgency, we will provide a loan backed by the EU budget.
This will address the urgent financial needs of Ukraine.
And Ukraine will only repay this loan once Russia pays reparations.”
Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic agreed to let the scheme go ahead as long as it was agreed that they would not be held financially liable for the loan...
“This plan would have dragged Europe into war and imposed a financial burden of 1000 billion [Hungarian forints] ($3 billion) on Hungary. We succeeded in protecting Hungarian families from this,” he said...
“If Ukraine is unable to repay the loan, those European countries will have to cover the repayment,” Orban said...

Things like these… 1. Outlaw Subscription Scams: 2. “Dynamic Pricing” Scams: 3. Corporations Buying Up Houses: 6. Speak American: 7. Baloney Fees: “Resort fees,” “convenience fees,” and “we just want more of your money fees” are out of control. Mandate that every mandatory charge be included in the base advertised fee... 8. Planned Obsolescence: Remember how your mom's lime green refrigerator from 1974 was still cooling away in 2014?.. 9. Young People's Home Loans: We want young people to buy houses...Give married couples – we want them married – in their 20s a $5,000 credit if they buy a home. And give them a kicker for every kid during their 20s. 10. Catastrophic Health Insurance Policies: Young people should be allowed to skip all the bells and whistles and just get covered for if they get hit by a bus. Yeah, you’d have to pay for your own check-ups, but you’d be surprised how reasonable they are when the doctors know they’re getting cash or a credit card upfront...

Amid the partisan polarization, there is a two-to-one plurality for less migration vs more migration. Just 18 percent of citizens want legalized migration to be increased, while 35 percent want it decreased or zeroed.
Twenty-five percent said the number should not be changed, even though establishment outlets rarely described the actual inflow of legalized migrants each year. Under Joe Biden, the inflow of all migrants was roughly level with the number of births.
An illegal migrant obtained a commercial license in the sanctuary state of New York before allegedly causing a deadly highway accident in Tennessee earlier this month.
Yisong Huang, a 54-year-old Chinese national involved in a horrific multi-car pile-up in Tennessee on Dec. 9, entered the U.S. unlawfully in 2023 and was released by the Biden administration, according to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Despite having obtained a commercial driver's license (CDL) by New York State officials, Huang failed an English language proficiency test following the crash.
Under Joe Biden's administration, the FBI staged a SWAT-style raid on President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago home in Florida.
Now a report is revealing his administration was told there was no basis for probable cause, meaning the raid was illegal and they knew it.
And they did it anyway.
The Digital Markets Act (DMA) and the Digital Services Act (DSA) have become tools of economic and political aggression, masquerading as consumer protection.
All of this, of course, under the European guise of “protecting democracy.”
President Trump’s administration has, thus far, taken the right tone, characterizing the EU’s recent fine on X as an assault on Americans.
What the EU is doing is nothing less than an extraterritorial power play meant to export European censorship norms into America...
As a particularly timely example,iRobot filed for bankruptcy this week, and a Chinese supplier will take control of the company. Three years ago, Amazon, one of the companies listed as a “gatekeeper” under the DMA, had offered to acquire iRobot.
However, EU regulators, with the support of the Lina Khan-led FTC, blocked the potential deal, arguing that it would limit competition.
EU regulations have led to the bankruptcy of an American company, and Chinese companies will have greater market control...
