EU stalls probe into Musk's X amid US trade talks, FT reports

(Reuters) -The European Commission has stalled one of its investigations into Elon Musk's social media platform X for breaching its digital transparency rules while it seeks to conclude trade talks with the U.S., the Financial Times reported on Thursday. The Commission will miss the deadline for finalising its investigation into X, which was expected to be done before its summer recess, the report said, citing three officials familiar with the matter. A decision was likely to come after clarity emerged in the EU-U.S. trade talks, the report said. Reuters could not immediately confirm the report. The EU and X did not immediately respond to Reuters' requests for comment. EU tech regulators said last year that X breached EU online content rules under the Digital Services Act. Any firm found in breach of the act faces a fine worth up to 6% of its global turnover, and repeat offenders may be banned from operating in Europe altogether. Solve the daily Crossword

Oregon man faces charges after car found filled with weapons, ammo near White House

PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) – An Oregon man was arrested in Washington D.C. for allegedly parking a car full of weapons near the White House on Wednesday. Officers said Nolan R. Churan, 23, was parked in an area reserved for Congressional staff without a parking permit and with what seemed to be a bow and arrow, knife, and empty pistol holster inside. Tree falls into power line, causing power outages for thousands in Vancouver U.S. Capitol Police said Churan was not near the car and was eventually tracked down near the north barricade of the U.S. Capitol. When interviewed, Churan reportedly told police he had guns in his car. The car, a Subaru Outback with a large tricycle attached to the roof, was investigated by a K-9 team with the DC Metropolitan Police Department. Officers reported finding a rifle, a handgun, and ammunition along with multiple knives, axes, a halberd, a rapier sword, and a bow and arrow. Churan faces charges of unlawful activities, carrying a pistol without a license, carrying a rifle without a license, carrying a dangerous weapon (sword), possessing a high-capacity ammunition feeding device, having an unregistered firearm and unregistered ammunition. Officials said they are not sure what Churan was doing on Capitol grounds, but added that 'there does not appear to be a nexus to the Congress.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.

Lauren Southern, Former Right-Wing Commentator, Says Andrew Tate Assaulted Her

In February 2018, Lauren Southern, a right-wing Canadian political influencer, met Andrew Tate on a trip to Bucharest, the Romanian capital. Ms. Southern, then 22, was gaining prominence with provocative videos that expressed anti-feminist and anti-immigrant views. Mr. Tate, a British American kickboxer living in Romania, was building his own online brand of flashy hyper-masculinity — and was years away from public scrutiny over accusations of rape and human trafficking. On that 2018 trip, Mr. Tate strangled and assaulted Ms. Southern in a hotel room while she was intoxicated, according to a self-published memoir that she released on Tuesday. Chapters of the book, 'This Is Not Real Life,' that involve Mr. Tate were published on her Substack. Ms. Southern declined to comment further on the allegations, but she provided The New York Times a copy of a 2018 report from a Toronto hospital where she said she had sought treatment. A nurse who examined Ms. Southern notes in the form, dated Feb. 28, 2018, that Ms. Southern had reported being strangled and assaulted by a 30-year-old man in Romania on Feb. 22. The hospital said this week that it was unable to authenticate the report because of patient privacy. The man was not named in the report, but was described by Ms. Southern at the time as a person she had met who she believed was a 'potential investor.' Two people who were on the trip with Ms. Southern confirmed in interviews that she had told them the morning after she was with Mr. Tate in his hotel room that she had been assaulted.
