They Gave MAGA a Safe Haven. Now They’re in Retreat.
Balázs Orbán, a former influential Hungarian government official, now faces a diminished role after the April election defeat of his former prime minister Viktor Orbán. The network of think tanks and institutions he chaired, including the Mathias Corvinus Collegium, which hosted MAGA figures like Tucker Carlson and JD Vance, is under pressure as the new government investigates Fidesz.
