Just to be clear, then. FIFA:

1) can't possibly intervene when Iran are forced to move, a referee is denied a visa, or fans are barred from the USA

2) can absolutely intervene when a decision goes against the USA that Donald Trump doesn't like

Smashing. All know where we stand

The captain of Iran’s National Team, Mehdi Taremi, calls out FIFA and the U.S.:

“This is a disaster World Cup. We can’t stay in the country and have to travel every time we play without any recovery. Now we can’t stay in Seattle and have to return to Tijuana. This is not fair.”

Pogacar tiene un pinchazo.

Pogacar tiene una bici de repuesto de Shimano.

Van der Poel atacará en Arenberg.

Van der Poel, silbido de la bici.

Cambio de bici de Van der Poel.

Siete corredores con Pogacar Van der Poel muy atrás.

También está Kristoff.

También está Kristoff.

Hagan que se rompan.

Es una situación muy buena.

El grupo de Van der Poel, a dos minutos.

Dos minutos.

¡Para, para, para, para!

Kristoff, obviamente, quédate a rueda.

Dejamos que Wout vuelva.

Pogacar a 10 segundos, tú a 20 segundos.

Kristoff, Wout ha vuelto.

Van Aert quizá percibió el peligro y atacó en el sector 12.

Vas con tres, Wout.

Pedersen, Pogacar, tú.

Pedersen se está descolgando ahora, Pedersen se está descolgando ahora.

Vamos, Wout, trabaja junto con Pogaccia en los pavés.

Sin duda, él no era mejor que tú.

Vamos, hoy vuelas, Wout.

Vamos, Wout.

Pogacar va a tope.

Vamos.

Quince minutos de sufrimiento, y luego ya estaremos allí.

Vamos.

Estamos en una posición perfecta.

Hoy será nuestro día, chicos.

Luchamos por ello.

Vamos.

Vamos, Wout.

Hoy es tu día.

Haremos que sea memorable.

Y además, Wout, tú lo sabes.

Idealmente, empiezas el sprint desde la segunda posición y alto desde la peraltada para poder coger velocidad.

Pero ya sabes lo que hay que hacer.

Bueno, Wout empieza a despegarse.

Y la increíble victoria de Wout.

Sí, sí, sí.

Vamos, vamos, vamos, vamos.

Te mereces esto muchísimo, Wout.

SACKED after 17 years… for stopping a thief.

A Waitrose worker in Clapham Junction has lost his job after intervening to stop someone stealing Easter eggs.

Walker Smith, 54, had given 17 years of service only to be shown the door for trying to do the right thing.

No warning. No loyalty. Just gone.

What message does that send to staff and to every other would be shoplifter wanting an easy target.

Do your job… but don’t actually protect the business. Waitrose have ABSOLUTELY no loyalty to their staff they are quite happy to dispense of Loyal partners like yesterdays rubbish.

The air traffic controller cleared the fire truck onto the runway. Seconds later, the same controller screamed “stop, stop, stop.” The plane was doing 93 to 105 mph.

Both pilots are dead.

Everyone will frame this as controller error. One controller was simultaneously managing a United flight that aborted takeoff after an anti-ice warning, dispatching a fire truck across an active runway, and sequencing an inbound Air Canada landing at highway speed. At 11:40 PM. On a mandatory overtime shift at a facility that has been understaffed for years.

A system that assigns one person that workload will produce exactly this outcome. The only variable is when.

The FAA is short approximately 3,000 controllers. The headcount dropped 13% from 2010 to 2024 while flight volume rose 10%. Over 40% of the FAA’s 290 terminal facilities are understaffed. The New York TRACON, which manages the most congested airspace in America across LaGuardia, JFK, and Newark, has been chronically below target. Newark was operating at 59% of its staffing goal. LaGuardia handles 900 flights a day.

The hiring pipeline is broken at every stage. Only 2% of applicants complete the full process. Training takes up to 6 years. The FAA Academy in Oklahoma City is a bottleneck, with roughly 35% of trainees washing out. Congress blocked legislation to build a second academy. In one recent hiring cycle, the FAA brought on 1,512 candidates and lost 1,300 in the same window. Net gain: around 160 controllers for an entire country.

Three things need to happen and everyone who can make them happen has known for years.

Congress needs to fund and authorize a second FAA training academy. One facility in Oklahoma City cannot produce enough controllers for 900 million annual passengers. Members of Congress from Oklahoma have actively blocked this. That needs to end yesterday.

The FAA needs to cut certification time. Six years from application to fully certified controller is absurd. The agency’s own data shows tower simulators reduce certification time by 27%. They’ve installed them at 95 facilities. That should be every facility, and the simulated hours should count toward more of the certification requirement.

The FAA needs to stop plugging staffing gaps with mandatory overtime. Controllers at understaffed facilities are working six-day weeks rotating between morning, mid, and night shifts. The NTSB has flagged fatigue repeatedly. The controller last night was managing overlapping emergencies during a nighttime operation. Overtime is not a staffing plan. It’s a countdown to the next runway collision.

The controller said “I messed up” to a Frontier pilot who watched the whole thing. The pilot responded “No man, you did the best you could.”

One of them is right. The answer determines whether this happens again.
