🇷🇴 The man Romania elected to be their President was arrested, and now his wife, mother of two kids, is fighting for her husband’s release.
Less than 2 years ago, Călin Georgescu won the Romanian Presidential election by a wide margin, with zero marketing, no backing by the establishment, just the popular vote of the Romanian vote.
The establishment went into crisis mode, trying to figure out what to do next. Their solution?
They cancelled the entire election, barred him from running again, created what looks like bogus charges against him, and jailed him.
This is in ROMANIA, a member of the EU that considers itself a democracy
To give you an idea of who Călin is, the first interview we did together was in his small living room, which is connected to his kitchen. No fancy palace, no security, just a humble family home with his wife and 2 young kids.
The second time I interviewed Călin was remotely when he was first arrested. He warned me back then that the establishment will keep going after him until he’s in jail, and he was right.
It’s the same playbook playing over and over again. ‘They’ did the same thing to Trump, they failed. ‘They’ did it to President Bolsonaro, and it is failing as we speak. And now ‘they’ are doing it to Călin Georgescu.
And if the world does nothing, ‘they’ will keep doing it. As former EU Commissioner Thierry Breton blatantly said in an interview: “We did it in Romania, and we will obviously have to do it if it is necessary in Germany.”
The Fmr EU Commissioner blatantly telling the world that the same thing they did in Romania they will repeat in other EU countries.
I spoke with Cristela Georgescu about the latest in the case against Călin, how their children watched their father being HANDCUFFED, and how her family is being FOLLOWED and their privacy VIOLATED.
And after my conversation with her, one question stands out:
What happens when a country continues to hold elections, calls itself a DEMOCRACY, and promises its citizens FREEDOM... but those challenging the authorities believe those very promises are being used to conceal their persecution?
That's the warning Cristela Georgescu wants the world to hear.

🇷🇴 Romania canceled its presidential election, jailed the man who WON the first round, and now opposition leader George Simion says he might be NEXT!
I spoke with Simion about the extraordinary situation unfolding in Romania... It's really shocking.
In November 2024, Călin Georgescu stunned the political establishment by winning the first round of the presidential election.
Two weeks later, the Constitutional Court ANNULLED the vote over unproven allegations of foreign interference WITHOUT evidence!!!
Now Georgescu is behind bars, ordered into 30 days of pretrial detention over an alleged €1.1 million fraud.
But Simion insists the case is politically motivated, and he believes the crackdown won't stop with Georgescu:
“After Călin, I will come next.”
Simion says prosecutors have opened 7/8 criminal cases involving his party's leadership, and the pressure is now extending to their families. The playbook is clear: try to break the people on the other side so that they eventually give in...
Georgescu's wife and father-in-law have been summoned for questioning, while the daughter of one opposition MP and the wife of another have also come under investigation.
And then there's BIG BROTHER!!
He says intercepted private conversations involving Georgescu were leaked to the press, including remarks criticising Simion himself.
He believes the intention was to turn the two opposition figures against each other, but it DIDN'T work.
And there's another extraordinary contradiction.
Simion says Georgescu explicitly urged supporters to remain peaceful after the election was cancelled, telling them to express their anger through the ballot box.
Yet Georgescu also faces prosecution over allegations of plotting violent unrest following the annulment.
The authorities allege serious criminal wrongdoing. Georgescu denies the accusations, while Simion says the proceedings amount to a campaign of political persecution.
And Simion is making clear that he has no intention of abandoning his ally:
“We are prepared to go to prison.”
He says the opposition will take its case to Brussels on October 14, demanding Georgescu's release and challenging what he describes as the erosion of Romanian democracy.
Nearly two years after Romania cancelled its presidential election, the fight over what happened is escalating far beyond the ballot box.
@georgesimion@CG_Romania
It’s two minutes to midnight. The time for talking is over; the time for action is now. That’s why we are presenting the first-ever patriotic European Citizens’ Initiative: the @SaveEuropeAct.
Acknowledging the ethnocultural continuity of Europe’s peoples as crucial for the preservation of Europe, we demand an immediate and total halt to immigration and the creation of a comprehensive European Remigration system.
To achieve that, we need your help. With a million signatures, the European Commission must meet with us face-to-face and take a stance on remigration and the future of Europe as a whole.
@freemobile how does someone get some help with activating a prepaid sim , I purchased the sim perchance the recharge voucher but when you call to activate no one is willing to help you
🇷🇴🇺🇸 Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson implies U.S. intelligence was involved in removing Georgescu from presidential race in Romania
"We got Călin Georgescu out. I know we did it, because someone (an insider) called me and told me they were gonna do it."
