The State Department has authorized $700,000 US taxpayer dollars to fund Hungarian media outlets that oppose Prime Minister Orbán’s conservative government, which is pushing back against the European Union's policy of mass migration. He also is exposing the European politicians who Soros has called “reliable allies”. [...]
