Will the EU now, finally, crack down on the illiberal regimes in Poland and especially Hungary?

The highest court in the EU has cleared the way for doing so, now let's hope it will really happen.  Money, as usual, talks very loudly and may produce real reforms in these countries.

(Recall that school desegregation in the U.S. did not start really happening until more than a dozen years after the Brown v. Board of Education decision, and only when the federal government announced it would withhold federal education funds from school districts not in compliance!)
