@henrywinter Thanks for sharing Henry... and let's be honest, no surprise at all to hear.. Gianni wants to be like trump... and I can't think of a worse role model ! Corrupt, self serving, criminal.. I think all 3 will be proven soon.. hopefully to both named, supposed "custodian's"
Thank you for thr post and you're honesty.. any sensible person can see that infantino is corrupt and wants to be like his mate trump.. so he thought he could do like Donald and enrich himself instead of being the custodian he should.. he's picked a very poor role model..
There is no shortage of issues regarding FIFA. Let me start by clarifying what some of these are from an FA perspective, in particular that of Jordan going into a World Cup for the first time.
We are a small country with a minimal budget for our FA and had to deal with enormous hurdles. First, getting our fans into the USA: not all were granted VISAS, even though they had tickets -which we also know were sold at exorbitant prices. Secondly, we are being taxed by the US govt through FIFA for our participation. Money that should go to players and staff. This was not the case for those who played and set up camp in Canada and Mexico. But we happened to be in the USA so now we face these huge costs in taxes for having participated.
Thirdly we have been waiting for reward money for our players since December for the Arab cup in Qatar, which is a FIFA event. The money our team should receive for having reached the final has not been delivered yet, while at the same time FIFA brags about how many billions they have in reserve.
It is clear the problem really is with leadership. For months, FIFA has been refusing to help us on any of these or other matters- until it was verbally communicated to me during the World Cup that if I endorsed Infantino it would go a long way to helping our FA out.
We pride ourselves in Jordan in upholding ethical values. We did not endorse him before and certainly will not now. But the whole situation amounts to blackmail and we refuse to give in to that.
A home theater installer has calibrated over 3,000 TVs in 12 years from $400 budget sets to $15,000 flagship OLEDs in custom media rooms.
He walks into people's homes, looks at their TV for 5 seconds, and can tell them exactly what's wrong.
He told me: "Almost every TV I see is running in the same mode Best Buy uses under fluorescent showroom lights. The motion smoothing is on. The sharpness is cranked. The eco dimmer is cutting brightness by 30–40%. And the TV is taking a screenshot of the screen every few seconds and selling the viewing data to advertisers. People are watching a $1,500 panel the same way it looked on the store shelf and that's the worst possible way to watch it."
He said a properly calibrated TV doesn't look "better." It looks like a completely different television.
He changed 9 settings on my TV in 15 minutes.
The soap opera effect disappeared. The colors became natural. Skin tones stopped looking plastic.
Dark scenes became visible. The TV stopped spying on me. And a movie finally looked like a movie instead of a daytime talk show.
"TV manufacturers ship every set optimized for a showroom, not a living room. Then they bury the settings that fix it inside 6 menus nobody opens."
Here are the 9 things he changed:
Today, many were shocked by yet another video of the drone “safari” Russians are carrying out against civilians in Kherson. A Russian drone deliberately hunted down a man selling vegetables and detonated right next to him. The Russians even admitted to the crime, showing zero regret and openly boasting about tormenting people. The man was wounded in the blast. Every single day, ordinary people in Kherson face these Russian "safaris."
The world must see this. It must see every piece of evidence that Russia has gone mad and that its soldiers take pleasure in killing and abusing civilians. Without pressure on Russia, the dismantling of its capacity for aggression, and real security guarantees, it is simply impossible to imagine the world being able to coexist with this evil. We must remain resolute in defending life. We must act and support life in ways that force Russia to seriously think about peace rather than expanding the range of its drones.
This is not just about Ukraine. Russia’s campaign against human life must be stopped here in Ukraine before it spreads further. Finland and Kazakhstan, the Baltic states and Poland, the countries of the South Caucasus, Romania, and Moldova—all should work together to ensure real security guarantees and bring Russia’s war to an end. Peace is needed, which requires cooperation among everyone in the world who truly values peace. Thank you to everyone standing with Ukraine!
ABC came to Israel to cover American Jewish settlers.
They didn’t like the cameras, so they assaulted the reporters.
Then they started celebrating dead Palestinians and stolen land.
Absolute psychopaths.
The US is starving and killing babies in Cuba, and the media is staying silent about it.
The US is starving Cuba like Israel is starving Gaza.
This violates Article 33 of Fourth Geneva Convention, which prohibits collective punishment—this’s illegal and a crime against humanity
So apparently Todd blanche told the judge the reason why men in the epstein files were redacted, like the guy who sent an email saying he enjoyed the torture video, is because these men are "victims."
You can not hate this administration and the republican party enough.
On the physics funding crisis in the UK - there are some issues of nuance, shall we say, in the attached article below.
The reason STFC had 'no choice' but to cut so many projects (Jodrell and many more) was NOT the government's spending review settlement. It was a deliberate choice by UKRI (as confirmed by a UKRI board member on X, you'll find it in my replies) to refocus spend away from STFC science and labs and towards other areas which, it asserts, will lead to more ‘impact’. UKRI have the power to do this. However, as the HoC Select committee pointed out, we have not been able to see a detailed record of the process, impact assessment or consultation that led to such a seismic shift in UK science policy. Who made the decision?
As @ChiOnwurah wrote in an open letter to UKRI / STFC in March: ‘What is clear is that, despite your assertions to the contrary in evidence to my committee and our counterparts in the House of Lords, widespread cuts have been proposed before adequate consultation with those affected was undertaken. This is wholly unacceptable and represents a failure for which DSIT, UKRI and STFC leadership must bear responsibility, and act urgently to address.’
Two top Republicans, both originally pro-Trump, confirm the US attacked Spain using Morocco as a proxy.
US paid Morocco at least $40M two weeks before the Ceuta breach. People were reportedly lured into participating through social media, while the breach was amplified as a "migrant invasion" online by US, Israeli and Russian disinformation and disruption networks, and compromised media networks and politicians on right wing legacy media.
The Trump crime family sued Capital One for shutting down 300 Trump bank accounts saying it’s was because of politics.
Capital One just replied, it was actually because of a money laundering review…
This should be much bigger news.
Netanyahu: I need $12 billion

Top 1%: We need a $1 trillion tax cut

Average Joe: My wife has cancer. Can we get Medicaid?

Hi @andyburnham the daughter of a Holocaust survivor has been arrested because of a policy Keir Starmer and Yvette Cooper rolled out, which Labour Baron Hain said in the House of Lords, was shameful, and the UK's High Court initially said was 'unlawful'
She says, "Free Palestine, end the genocide"
"It's not what my parents died for"
"I'm a Holocaust survivor's child.. I'm glad my parents didn't live to see this"
Will you be correcting this, or make it part of your legacy too?
Trump announced a subscription service: If you pay HIM 100K per month, you can have access to Federal policies ahead of being implemented, so you can do insider trading. Just when is this shit going to be stopped? How many crimes can any one person commit before it's enough?
