We zijn er gekomen in het Afas theater leusden. Dit zonder enige aanduiding langs de weg. Zijn er dan zoveel andere interessante publiekstrekkende zalen dat de gemeente #Leusden het niet nodig vindt een verwijsbrief te plaatsen?
🚨 This is what corruption looks like in plain sight.
On Dec 5, FIFA handed Donald Trump a made-up honor called the “FIFA Peace Prize.”
Trump had wanted a Nobel. This was the consolation prize.
Four days later — Dec 9 — Trump’s DOJ moved to kill a major FIFA corruption case.
That case wasn’t speculative.
It involved decades of bribery and fraud in international soccer.
The defendants:
• Hernán López, former CEO of Fox International Channels
• Full Play Group, an Argentinian sports media company
They were:
✔️ Convicted by a jury
✔️ Upheld by a unanimous appeals court
✔️ Pending review at the Supreme Court
Then comes the switch.
Trump’s Solicitor General John Sauer ordered DOJ prosecutors to abandon the case entirely.
Sauer is not a neutral actor — he personally represented Trump in the immunity case he won at SCOTUS.
The U.S. Attorney overseeing the FIFA prosecutions, Joseph Nocella (also a Trump appointee), objected and asked Sauer to reconsider.
Sauer refused.
Now DOJ is asking a federal court to vacate the convictions.
Why this matters:
• It could unravel dozens of FIFA corruption convictions
• It could force the U.S. to return hundreds of millions of dollars in penalties
• It signals that justice is transactional
A shiny trophy.
A powerful favor.
A prosecution erased.
This isn’t conspiracy.
It’s a timeline.
In Trump’s America, justice isn’t blind — it’s for sale.
