Smack-Down! Hungary Pushes Back Against Obnoxious US Ambassador, by Daniel McAdams

Those Hungarians are a plucky bunch. From Daniel McAdams at ronpaulinstitute.org:

Biden’s Ambassador to Hungary, David Pressman, is a particularly odious specimen in a long line of obnoxious US residents of Szabadság tér since the end of Hungary’s subjection to Soviet control in 1989.
