-Shootings near the England camp
-Japan having to move twice due to terrible facilities
-Players and refs can't even get into the country
-The ball doesn't bounce on the pitches
-$150 trains to get to stadiums that aren't fit for purpose
They've had 8 years prep for this 😭
Where is your voice,Infantino?
As African players,referees,Journalists and fans are humiliated. World Cup is supposed to Unite according to FIFA slogan.
You preach "global football" and "unity" why are people suffering because US border politics?
Stand up or step down.
Why did every Australian government from Chifley to Rudd, 1945-2010, not allow permanent US military bases in Australia?
Because when you allow bases you give up sovereignty.
Gillard changed it, and now, as a US diplomat told me, Australia is effectively under US occupation.
This is utter bullshit. When Indonesia refused to grant the Israeli under 17 team visa’s for the 2023 U-20 World Cup, FIFA stripped Indonesia’s hosting rights and moved it to Argentina. So @FIFAcom can stop with the lies.
Local artist, Light Guerrilla, projected TAX THE RICH on Mark Zuckerberg’s $300M mega yacht. It is docked at Seattle’s Lake Union and the company is laying off 1395 employees in Washington state starting next month
Even Hitler's Germany did not prevent athletes and officials from entering the country to take part in the 1936 Olympics.
This is pristine racism and @FIFAcom stands disgraced for allowing Trump to disfigure the beautiful game in this way.
We're making sure mums and bubs get the care they need right after birth.
Supporting more Neonatal Nurses like Bonnie means more newborns staying with their mums for bonding during these precious early moments of life.
He is only 33 years old. This is the biggest moment of his career. He’s probably been waiting for it for months.
But who will talk about it? There are 48 teams, hundreds of players, and representatives from all over the world. Who will finally speak up?
The US has called on Ukraine and Russia to immediately agree to a comprehensive ceasefire and move to peace negotiations.
Cool.
But has anyone told them who exactly keeps saying “no”?
Ukraine has proposed negotiations 500 times already.
Meanwhile, Russia keeps rambling about some delulu Anchorage meeting that Ukraine wasn’t even part of, while continuing to launch missiles and drones every single day.
So maybe the problem isn’t that nobody is offering peace.
Maybe the problem is that one side doesn’t want it.
Russia's decision to launch its full-scale invasion of Ukraine was one of the biggest strategic mistakes of the 21st century. It was also a blatant violation of international law.
Read the Nordic statement I delivered on Ukraine today at the #UNSC.

NSW Labor gov sends 38 riot police to use force against peaceful protesters defending public housing from demotion by for profit developers. Prior to election, Labor promised to save these public homes. #HousingCrisis
King Charles III welcomes many foreign leaders to the UK. None receive a welcome like he affords Zelensky: In the royal family's private quarters, bedecked with whimsical heirlooms, in Windsor Castle.
King Charles's very existence is about optics. And he knows what he is doing.

Every day, Russia commits terrorist atrocities against Ukrainian civilians that would cause outrage and catastrophe anywhere else. Unprovoked military attacks on innocents while the free world watches and talks.
My childhood friend covered me with himself, saved my life, and died in my arms. "I love you" were his last words. — Cobra, 58th Motorized Infantry Brigade fighter.
It was the hardest psychological moment for me. We were close to evacuation, but he didn’t make it.

La “Operación Militar Especial” de Vladimir Putin 🇷🇺 en Ucrania 🇺🇦 se encuentra a tan sólo 48 horas de superar en duración a la Primera Guerra Mundial.
Uno de los mayores errores de cálculo de la historia moderna.
We've stopped talking about Taylor's "Cayman Is. Entity" which was paid $80,000,000 for water.
The deal was set up & approved by the $32,000 a day drought envoy Barnaby Joyce.
The water ended up being imaginary, the money very real, has never been recovered.
He wants to be PM!
I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”
Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.
