Grok: - Christopher Rufo shares a video of California IHSS caregiver Chaquan May recounting how SEIU Local 2015 representatives locked her in a room during program orientation, hovered over her, and pressured her to sign union dues authorization out of fear. - IHSS is a taxpayer-funded Medi-Cal program paying family members and others to provide in-home care for elderly and disabled individuals, with SEIU 2015 collecting an estimated $150 million yearly in dues from providers across the state. - The account aligns with multiple documented complaints and lawsuits alleging SEIU coercion tactics, difficult opt-outs, and automatic deductions in the IHSS program following the Janus Supreme Court ruling on non-consensual fees. > A California resident says the SEIU "in-home care" union locked her in a room and coerced her into paying union dues. Experts say the taxpayer-funded program is rife with fraud—and the unions are collecting nearly $150 million each year from membership dues.

Well, it’s over. Fidesz lost; Orban has conceded defeat. However, it looks like Tisza did not win a supermajority, so many Orban-era constitutional reforms will remain. ---

It’s worth bearing in mind that Magyar is ex-Fidesz. For instance, > Magyar announced that a Tisza-led government would stand by Hungarian people and Hungarian companies and, from 1 June 2026 until further notice, would permit zero importation of non-Hungarian guest workers from outside the European Union. Also, > doesn’t support Ukraine’s “fast-track accession to the EU” and that “Hungary should opt out” of the 90B loan to Ukraine as “Hungary is in a very difficult financial situation.” ---
