A PBS reporter tonight on the News Hour at 23 min referred to Poland's new dictator government which is replacing an independent minded judge with a government appointed stooge as "the populist government." That is an obscene hijacking of the word by goons. The real "populists" were the Polish people outside protesting!

If Poland and Hungary don't want to be a part of the EU and NATO anymore, they should be kicked out and they can join Putin's empire again!
