[Miguel Delaney @MiguelDelaney]

Fifa’s shift from goal difference to head-to-head to decide groups is an inexplicably terrible decision that has needlessly killed or muted loads of final-round group games

USA-Turkey would have tonnes on it, for one

Now it’s a needless dead rubber

The President wants to put his face on the $250 bill. That requires a vote of Congress. I would vote YES to authorize the below design.

Absolutely outstanding. Why we love it. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Ok, Jamie: Let me clear things up for you.

If my 5% wealth tax on billionaires was enacted you’d owe $135 million more in taxes & a family of 4 making $150,000 or less would receive a $12,000 payment.

Oh, and you’d still be worth more than $2.5 billion. Seems pretty fair to me.

With Syria’s Kurdish regions under siege from jihadi militias, more than 300 activists have mobilised a ‘People’s Caravan’ to Rojava in solidarity — and to denounce their abandonment by Western powers. https://t.co/CpIsa08FMa

So unfair this guy didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize

[Madelaine Hanson @MadelaineLucyH]

Remember when right wing meant “oh I don’t like high taxes” and not “until Britain is 100% genetically Saxon we are a failed state”

[Sam Stein @samstein]

On the Strait of Hormuz we've gone from:

1. Don't need help
2. We need help
3. Why aren't folks helping?
4. Helps on the way
5. Not telling you who is helping
6. Helps not actually on the way but we don't need it anyway
7. We may just abandon it and leave it to everyone else

[Jonathan Chait @jonathanchait]

and he didn't move to the center, just mobilized the base.

Well, I'm still alive and he is watching the next race....

[Marc E. Elias @marceelias]

The president is handing out oversized clown shoes to his cabinet—and watching to see who refuses to wear them.

It's Solzhenitsyn's Stalin story come to life: the first person to stop applauding ended up in the gulag. The lesson then, as now—never be the first to stop clapping.

[Kurdistan Solidarity Campaign @KurdsCampaign]

Rojava needs international recognition to safeguard its autonomy, lives of minorities, and gains of the women’s revolution. All they have is us, the people, to stand up for and with them. Join our campaign and follow for updates.

[Kevin Maguire @Kevin_Maguire]

What was that about religious fanatics?

[Gerry Hassan @GerryHassan]

An incredible retraction by the Daily Telegraph today. They have apologised for publishing an article last year headlined: “We earn £345k, but soaring private school fees mean we can’t afford to go on five holidays.” The entire story was fabricated; the family did not exist.

It 'began' did it? Remind us how, Viktor?
