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.

Liverpool beat Sunderland on Wednesday night, but the victory came at a cost when midfielder Wataru Endo, filling in at the injury-hit right-back position, suffered a serious ankle injury and was stretchered off. Manager Arne Slot said the injury looks bad and expects Endo to be out for a long time, praising his mentality for staying on despite the pain. This marks the latest blow in a cursed right-back saga since Trent Alexander-Arnold's departure to Real Madrid, with Jeremie Frimpong sidelined until late February, Conor Bradley out until August, and others like Joe Gomez battling knocks—seven players have tried the spot this season, all hitting problems. Fans vent frustration over the endless injuries and suspensions at the position.

Key Takeaway

Wataru Endo twisted his ankle badly in the 68th minute, needed oxygen on the pitch, and was carried off in tears while playing right-back for Liverpool.

On February 8, 2026, Erling Haaland's stoppage-time penalty gave Manchester City a 2-1 comeback win at Anfield, Liverpool's first home loss to them since 2015, dropping Arne Slot's side to sixth with 39 points from 25 games. The nostalgic clip from March 10, 2024—a 1-1 thriller—showcased Klopp's high-pressing game, with Alexis Mac Allister's penalty equalizing Bernardo Silva's opener amid chances from Darwin Núñez, Luis Díaz, and masterful midfield work by Wataru Endo. Fans praised the electric intensity and Díaz's work rate, contrasting it with Slot's more cautious approach that has left Anfield quieter and the title defense struggling, with just one league win in 2026.

Key Takeaway

A video from last year's intense Anfield draw against Manchester City brought back memories of Liverpool's relentless style under Jürgen Klopp—just days after a painful home defeat to the same team.

Critics highlight Diallo's lack of efficiency in scoring and creating chances, including a late-game pass to Sesko instead of shooting, while supporters note his 2 goals and 2 assists in 15 Premier League games under manager Ruben Amorim. The discussion references Mbeumo's recent assist and Sesko and Mbeumo's four goal contributions each in their last five appearances.

A viral clip from Manchester United's 2-1 defeat at West Ham on October 27, 2024, shows Dalot blazing over from a Bruno Fernandes through ball, a blunder that ramped up pressure leading to Ten Hag's sacking days later. Fans darkly humor that the miss also doomed Amorim, fired in January 2026, though some defend Dalot's smart runs. Now steady under interim boss Michael Carrick—with new signings Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha to sharpen finishing—United head to the London Stadium on a three-win streak, aiming to bury the memory.

Key Takeaway

Diogo Dalot's shank from six yards out in last year's West Ham loss feels like a ghost returning tonight. Fans joke it cost Erik ten Hag and Ruben Amorim their jobs.
