A Republican-led U.S. House Judiciary Committee report from February 3, 2026, claims the European Commission held over 100 closed-door meetings since 2020 to push social media platforms into tightening content moderation before elections in seven countries, including Romania, Slovakia, and France. It alleges the pressure under the Digital Services Act aimed to demote conservative or populist views on migration, gender, and EU policies. EU officials reject the accusations as nonsense, saying the DSA combats illegal content and election risks while protecting users and democracies. The report has fueled calls in Romania for snap elections after the court's annulment and rescheduled vote.

Key Takeaway

Populist Călin Georgescu stunned Romania by leading the first round with 22% of the vote on November 24, 2024—only for the court to annul it over alleged Russian interference.

The 26-year-old Egyptian, who joined City for £59 million last year and scored eight Premier League goals in his debut season, has played just 206 league minutes this term with no goals.

Virgil van Dijk headed Liverpool into a 1-0 lead at Sunderland's Stadium of Light, assisted by Mohamed Salah, but Gakpo drew sharp criticism for wasteful play alongside Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike.
