FIFA gave Trump a peace prize because he wanted one. He grabbed the Club World Cup trophy for his Oval Office. He posted about annexing Canada ten days before Canada starts co-hosting.

Hotels are half-empty. Ticket demand has slumped. 54 percent of Americans say they have no interest. The cheapest final ticket on resale is $8,000.

The games will still be beautiful. But the country that was supposed to throw this party has spent 18 months making the world reluctant to attend.

⚽💔 “Le robaron al mundo un gusto popular”

El director mexicano Alejandro González Iñárritu lanzó una fuerte crítica contra la organización del Mundial 2026:

«No siento ningún ambiente mundialero. Hay muy pocos partidos en el país, muy pocos partidos en México. Creo que el haber dispersado un Mundial en tres países me parece algo de avaricia de la mafia de la FIFA, cobró tres veces un Mundial.

El haber metido muchos más equipos ya hace una curaduría de calidad, el nivel va a bajar. El costo de los boletos me parece una grosería.

Mi padre, que no tenía dinero, recuerdo en el partido de Argentina famoso (2-1 en Cuartos de Final) contra Inglaterra en el gol de Maradona de "La Mano De Dios", yo fui a ese partido, y para que mi papá me haya invitado quiere decir que él podía pagar ese boleto.

O sea, antes había un acceso, pero ahorita el boleto más barato es de 10 mil pesos o 20 mil pesos, y si quieres llevar a tus hijos es una barbaridad. Le han quitado al mundo un gusto popular que se robaron, y ahora para verlo en la televisión tienes que pagar.

Antes era verdaderamente una celebración de un país orgulloso de ser el que invitaba al mundo, había alegría, un orgullo. Ahora, dividido en tres países, me parece una mala decisión de los que manejan el mundo de los corporativos».

This is a disgrace and embarrassing for all of America!

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.

Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

I truly can’t get over how bad Mandalorian and Grogu is. Like it somehow doesn’t actually feel like a movie.

[Wu Tang is for the Children @WUTangKids]

Springsteen on Colbert:

"I’m here in support tonight for Stephen, because you are the first guy in America who lost his show because we got a president who can't take a joke….and because Larry and David Ellison feel they need to kiss his ass to get what they want. Stephen, these are small-minded people. They got no idea what the freedoms of this beautiful country are supposed to be about" 🔥

[Michael Haffner @MPHaffner]

have an idea for this that would be amazing and I would love to make it.

[Total Film @totalfilm]

Obsession director Curry Barker would like to explore more deadly wishes in the future perhaps in a potential anthology series #Obsession

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

This is outright theft.

Trump is stealing $1.7 BILLION of your money to set up a totally unprecedented, first-in-American-history political slush fund that he can use to dole out cash to win loyalty and favors for him and his family.

[Marco Foster @MarcoFoster_]

President Obama on Iran: “We pulled it off without firing a missile. We got 97% of their enriched uranium out. There’s no dispute that it worked and we didn’t have to kill a whole bunch of people or shut down the Strait of Hormuz”

[vids that go hard @vidsthatgohard]

There are chase scenes, then there’s this masterpiece from The Adventures of Tintin. One of the most underrated movies EVER

[Tommy Vietor @TVietor08]

Incredible tweet from Junior

[Michael Haffner @MPHaffner]

The definition of a fascist dictatorship.

[Pop Base @PopBase]

The White House says they will “identify and neutralise” political groups that are anti-American, “radically pro-transgender” and anarchist.

This new song is so damn good. An amazing groove that I bet would sound so damn good live.

I want a Democratic Party that fights twice as ruthlessly as the Republicans.

No more reaching across the aisle bullshit, there is no middle ground with these freaks who are actively trying to undermine the will of the people.

[Tim @trouble_man90]

Two Black lawmakers were arrested for their opposition against white state legislators eliminating Black representation in the state of Tennessee.

Absolutely insane things are happening in the year 2026.

[Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 @mtgreenee]

The most transparent administration in history still hasn’t released all the Epstein files or arrested anyone, but rolled out some UFO files today so you would get so excited that you forgot you are paying over $4.50/gallon because they are fighting another foreign war they said they would no longer fight.

Happy Friday everyone!

[Michael Haffner @MPHaffner]

This might be the cinematic event of the year for me. I can’t wait to witness the deleted footage from this crazy ass film on the big screen.

[Warner Bros. Clockwork @clockwork_wb]

[Don Winslow @donwinslow]

THIS IS NOT ANOTHER ONE OF HIS STUPID SOCIAL MEDIA POSTS

THIS IS A DECLARATION OF WAR IMO ON AMERICAN VOTERS.

DO. NOT. IGNORE. THIS.

[Michael Haffner @MPHaffner]

The design of General Leia is so damn good. Obsessed.

[Ivan @Valiantes_]

Han, Luke, and Leia together at Galaxy's Edge, Disneyland.

Finally after 7 years.

Even though we didn’t win on the field, it’s always a win when you’re at CITYPARK with good friends. Even when they force you to wear a birthday hat.
