This should act as a warning and a red pill to anyone who supports the EU. Sometimes you don’t have to say anything. These people are openly telling us what they are doing. Here is a collection of Tweets and videos from the EU themselves:
Poland and Hungary
For breaches of EU law, we pursue legal action against Member States for failing to comply with their obligations: https://t.co/1GPlj6yw4x pic.twitter.com/Wm9Eqkqpka

It is time to stop Orban’s crackdown on freedom of speech. I support Momentum referendum against Orban’s NGO law. If he wants to be part of the EU, he must follow European rules and values https://t.co/mhbF0Wbckt

Poland could still be a leader in Europe, but has degraded itself to the gang of Orbàn and its illiberal societies. Kaczynski has copied Orbàn by politicizing the constitutional court, curtailing the civil society, muzzling the free media #EPlenary

As in the case of Hungary – we need to activate article 7. Now. Not to punish Poland, but to save its European legacy. Not to punish the citizens of Poland, but to punish those politicians who want to destroy this legacy #EPlenary

We will never accept any sanctions against Polish citizens themselves. It is better to divert EU money from the Polish government directly to the Polish civil society, to Polish cities, to Polish people who must never be the victims of Kaczynski´s reactionary agenda #EPlenary

Alt-right politicians such as Orban, Trump and Farage have found a new
antichrist: George Soros. Their propaganda reminds me of our darkest
days in our European history. Judge for yourself. https://t.co/2EZJ0PxmsY— Guy Verhofstadt (@guyverhofstadt) November 30, 2017
Shocking that all households in Hungary continue to receive this populist anti-migrant, anti-Soros propaganda from #Orban. pic.twitter.com/ttz5IgOaNn

.@StandUpUSEurope posted this to show how the EU has been the eternal scapegoat since its creation in 1958. Now again Orban & @Nigel_Farage claim the Union is run by Soros. Fake news as efforts to take Europe down. But they will fail. Support for Europe grows every day! 🇪🇺 pic.twitter.com/rm2uB64R5y

Jerusalem:
-President Trump's announcement has the potential to send us backwards to even darker times than the ones we are already living it.
-Only realistic solution= 2 states. Jerusalem as capital of both.

Migration
The EU needs to offer an alternative to perilous journeys by opening safe and legal pathways for those in genuine need of protection.
This will require Member States to resettle a further 50,000 vulnerable refugees by May 2019.#MigrationEU pic.twitter.com/mHUV1Y1D23— European Commission (@EU_Commission) December 7, 2017
