... who all paid $0.

FIFA sucks, man.

Between the tweet below re: ticket collusion and this one about sticking fans and, apparently, hotel owners:

...they've done everything they can to make the 2026 World Cup the least fan-friendly experience I've ever seen a major sport.

@atrupar Lies are the Hallmark of MNGOP.

@HenryBushnell @tombogert Offensively, this team should compete well because of its attacking wing backs and talent up top. But defensively the team is vulnerable to the counter attack because of the formation and average speed of most defensive players. They desperately need a healthy Chris Richards.

"Farm bankruptcies in Wisconsin increased by 700% in 2025."

[Keith Ellison @keithellison]

Honoring the man convicted of murdering George Floyd the week of the anniversary is frankly shocking. Chauvin was convicted by a jury of his peers and was affirmed through every appeal. It shows cruelty to the Floyd family and disrespect to our courts and all Minnesotans. No one is above the law.

@atrupar @jburcum Disgusting Republicans.

Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.

@Jamiemlong @sallyjos MNGOP is defined by its racism

[Jamie Long @Jamiemlong]

The MN GOP opened their convention with a moment of silence for Derek Chauvin.

Not for those we lost to gun violence.

Not for soldiers killed overseas.

To a literal convicted murderer. Disgusting.

Sen. Andy Kim: "It's a choice. Delaney Hall is run by GEO Group. GEO Group is getting a nearly $1 billion contract to run Delaney Hall. They tell me there is one full-time doctor for 800 detainees. They could have more doctors if they wanted to, but that's cutting into their profits."

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

There is no world in which this is okay.  

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito did not recuse himself from cases involving Trump’s Treasury Department while his own son was secretly working there as a political appointee and attorney. 

His son's employment was hidden so thoroughly that his name appears nowhere on the Treasury Department website, he has no public resume, and his bar listings are outdated. 

If Alito had recused himself, the secret would have come out. He didn’t recuse himself. 

This is a clear conflict of interest, and the American people deserved to know about it. 

The federal recusal standard is clear: a justice must step aside in any case where there is a reasonable basis to question whether he or she can be impartial. A justice ruling on cases involving the department where his son works fails that test. The Treasury Department sits at the center of some of the biggest legal fights of this administration, and challenges to Trump’s $1.776 billion January 6 slush fund could be headed to the Court next. 

The Supreme Court is the only court in America with no binding code of conduct. That is completely unacceptable, and it has to change NOW. 

Congress controls the Power of the Purse, and therefore the Court’s funding. If the Court will not adopt a binding code of conduct with real recusal review on their own, I support withholding their funding until they do.

[Heartland Signal @HeartlandSignal]

Robert Held, a Chicago attorney who was detained last year by ICE but not charged with a crime, tells WCPT's Joan Esposito that the ICE agent who attacked him last December should have gotten felony charges instead of misdemeanor charges.

"I didn't know it at the time, but it turns out if you're on a public sidewalk and somebody batters you — meaning they hit you or physically touch you, in this case, he, you know, I would say violently threw me to the ground — because I was on a public sidewalk, it constitutes a felony under the law. And independently, even if I wasn't on a sidewalk, the fact that I'm over age 60, assaulting someone who's over age 60 is also a felony."

[Bill Madden @maddenifico]

In case anyone was wondering what the judge's ruling against Trump in the E. Jean Carroll case was.

[Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @ReichlinMelnick]

200 people killed by the American military without a trial and $4.7 BILLION in taxpayer money spent on the killings, and yet "cocaine ... is as easy to get in much of the United States as it was before the strikes began."

A disastrous operation nearly every way you measure it.

@ByDougMcIntyre @FOXSoccer Actions, not words, matter. He knows that criticism in the USA is nothing compared to anywhere in Europe.
