Magyr just announced Hungary is creasing funding for CPAC. The US one.

Why was Orban funding CPAC? We know he's been distributing money all over Europe to far right parties and candidates (likely on behalf of Russia).

"Magyr just announced Hungary is creasing funding for CPAC. The US one."

Wrong. There's a Hungarian CPAC.

Or maybe on behalf of Soros? Why not stick with tried and true CT nuttery?

Hungary is half of a former empire. It has the same noblesse oblige stakeholders in the former British Empire has. So the Hungarian Conservative movement supported ideologically aligned groups elsewhere.

Still does. The break with CPAC is just a consequence of understanding US conservatism is incompatible with European conservative views.

I would not expect Hungary to break with its European brethren. Magyar is cut from the same cloth as Orban after all.

US organisation, local Hungarian meeting.

N.b. that's just the pretext for the payments. Like how they funnelled money to a UK rowing journalist by "licensing" his name for a chain of cafes.

You are mirroring my sentiment exactly. What value added did that CT provide?

If this was 1842 and International Socialism wasn't a thing, I might share your disdain for like-minded political movements in different countries collaborating with each other.

"Or maybe on behalf of Soros?"

Soros would be Biden's EDRI and CEP funding schemes, designed explicitly to advance their causes in Eastern European judicial systems and "democratic institutions".

Hundreds of millions of dollars to advance the Soros playbook in multiple nations, including Ukraine and Hungary.

Putin funneling cash to various proxies is well documented, hardly a conspiracy theory.
