There are several similarities between the policies of Hungary and the state of Texas, Justice Minister Judit Varga told online US daily The Dallas Express in an interview published on Wednesday.
“We believe in family, we believe in national sovereignty, we don’t think that mass illegal migration is a good thing for our future, et cetera,” Varga said.
The minister said the goal of her visiting Texas was “to enhance synergies between conservative politics all over the continents.”
“We need to make friendships, we need to get to know each other and find common ground,” she said. “There might be differences when it comes to details, but when it comes to the real principles, then I think we understand each other,” she said.
Concerning migration, Varga said “we respect others, and we also expect respect for our national policy, which is supported by a huge majority of voters, so this is the basis of how we implement this very strong border.” “But that only earns us slaps in the face in the centre of the European Union.”
“We are curbing mass illegal migration, protecting not only the Hungarian borders but also the external boundaries of European, the so-called Schengen border,” Varga said.
Varga suggested that the European Union’s immigration rules were no longer adequate to deal with the current situation.
“The European asylum and migration legal framework is outdated. It is not well designed for the 21st-century mass migration,” she said. It was designed at the end of the last century, and this kind of challenge was not the same which exists today, ” she said.

That is pretty delusional.
Judit might want to remember that the attorney general of Texas that wrote these laws is under indictment and will probably go to prison. She might also want to remember that the head of the conservatives, Trump, is under indictment in three separate jurisdictions with more to come, as well as being found guilty of unwanted sexual advances, this by a jury of his piers. And she also might want to remember that Matt Schlapp, the president of CPAC, is under investigation for sexual assault on a male aid. So Judit, which one is your idol?
Not to mention the sheer inhumanity of Texas leaders, in general. Just as Texas reaches hotter than hell temperatures, the Governor passes legislation to strike down hourly water breaks for outdoor construction workers. What a good “christian” he is. Yes, because like Fidesz members, Republican politicians in the USA often prohibit goodness, civility and compassion in the name of Christianity. Don’t forget, Texas has benefited from fossil fuels more than most regions in the world, now it is suffering more than most. Unfortunately, the rich will not share water, shelter and humanity with the working people. Texas leaders and Hungarian leaders are similar; in all the mean, selfish and “Christian” ways imaginable.
