🚨🇷🇴ON THE GROUND: ROMANIA — CANCELLED VOTES, SILENCED VOICES & THE FIGHT TO BE HEARD In Romania, the election wasn’t stolen in broad daylight. It was muted. Managed. Manipulated. The conservative camp, bruised from a banned frontrunner and last year’s cancelled vote, surged forward anyway. Then came the Telegram bombshell. French intelligence tried to censor conservative accounts. Too late. Suspicion became confirmation. EU pressure tilted the scale behind closed doors. George Simion, Romania’s Trump-like candidate, faced a tough arena. His campaign promised transparency, foreign capital, and a national reset. But media bias and systemic resistance made clear, the machine never let go. Yet the movement didn’t end. It roared louder. Simion became more than a candidate. He became a reckoning. The diaspora watched. Europe tensed. One question echoed: was this ever a free vote, or just the illusion of one? This is On The Ground. 02:29 – "Against human nature to annul elections!" How desperate elites shatter democratic norms when facing popular uprising. 03:55 – "We're on the verge of bankruptcy!" Romania's economic collapse exposes decades of mismanagement by establishment parties. 04:35 – "We have lots of minerals but we're poor!" Natural resource wealth squandered while citizens flee economic devastation. 05:10 – "Mainstream media are political activists, not journalists!" European press revealed as propaganda machine protecting failed establishment. 08:44 – "If they stay abroad, their children won't be Romanian!" Demographic time bomb as millions abandon homeland for survival. 09:45 – "People appreciate Spain's health system, that's why they stay!" Healthcare collapse drives mass emigration as basic services fail. 12:47 – "Globalists trying to push us away from traditional values!" Cultural war against faith, family, and national identity exposed. 15:22 – "We have to get rid of this poisonous EU ideology!" Brussels' destructive policies blamed for national decline and social chaos. 17:43 – "This is about fundamental values and common sense!" Grassroots movement represents deeper rejection of elite-imposed decline. 19:59 – "What happened wasn't loud, it was calculated coordination!" Quiet establishment manipulation exposes broader threat to European democracy. Source: @iosefinapascal @FilosofiaPolti @AnamariaGavri14 @ericbolling @georgesimion

🚨🇨🇩ON THE GROUND: CONGO — REBELS, RUINS & THE FIGHT TO REBUILD | PART 2 In Part 2, we walk the streets of Goma—where daily life unfolds between uncertainty and hope. We meet the students chasing dreams on dusty campuses, the traders navigating chaos to make a living, and the families holding it all together in the face of constant change. This is where the Congo River Alliance begins to take shape—not in headlines, but in conversations over plastic chairs and roadside fires. Where rebels speak of rebuilding—not with slogans, but with schools, roads, and safety. From war-scarred hills to classrooms buzzing with ambition, this is the side of Congo most never see. A land rich in minerals—and richer still in people refusing to give up. This isn’t just about rebels or politics. It’s about a country finding its way forward. This is On The Ground. Hosted by @EricBolling and reported by @Visegrad24. 00:00 — “History lives in the body.” Congo’s mineral wealth has only brought blood. 01:13 — “Ask when it went wrong? The answer is always the ground.” 03:12 — 70% of the world’s cobalt. $2 a day to live. The cruel math of extraction. 04:38 — “There’s no army. No justice.” Nangaa says Congo is a failed state. 06:28 — A nation where the government vanishes—and rebels fill the vacuum. 08:39 — “Tshisekedi is a professional liar.” Allegations of repression and tribal rule. 11:21 — What is a failed state? No police, no administration, no trust. 13:00 — Civilians say it plainly: “Everyone’s to blame.” 15:59 — Ceasefire rejection: “We were never even invited.” 17:02 — War crimes allegations? “Where we are—there’s peace.” 19:45 — “We’ll start with a census.” A rebel plan to rebuild the state from scratch. 21:10 — “The world protects Kinshasa—to keep Congo weak.” 22:27 — “No NGO ever built a nation.” Why Nangaa backs business over aid. 24:16 — “We’ll build it ourselves.” A call for Congolese resilience over dependency. 26:06 — Security. Food. Water. Dignity. A rebel blueprint for national rebirth. 27:55 — “This regime lied. We won’t.” The promise of transition. 29:04 — “Our voice is small. But it’s growing.” 29:50 — “We’re not here to solve it. We’re here to show it.”
