Remember when Musk challenged the World Food Program to explain how he could solve world hunger with just $6 billion, they did, and he just completely ignored them?
Introducing the Scottish-American travel dictionary 🇺🇸🏴
We’ve put together this guide to keep the Tartan Army out of trouble in the States.
Read carefully to avoid confusing the locals, deeply offending the country, or being interrogated by Homeland Security over a sandwich.
Incorrect. He had a visa. From the US Embassy in Nairobi. It was valid. They vetted him there, and gave him a visa.
Then he landed in Miami, was detained for 11 hours, and deported to Istanbul.
THEN they branded him a terrorist.
A FIFA referee, simply because he’s Somali.
Watching football highlights without seeing the result in the video title or thumbnail will be an issue during the World Cup. ▶️
I've built a website to try and solve this issue. It isn't perfect yet and just a fun project! Any feedback appreciated. ⚽️

Ødegaard worst season.
Bruno Fernandes best season of his career.
Yet Ødegaard still has more open-play assists for club and country.
Funny how narratives work.
Denying him entry was one thing but they're literally calling this innocent man a TERRORIST now and tarnishing his image in front of the whole world. Sick bastards.
When Russia hosted the World Cup in 2018, it had to suspend normal visa rules for the tournament. Foreigners with tickets could enter visa-free, using a scheme called ‘Fan ID.’
Russia also had to do weird stuff to keep FIFA’s sponsors happy. For example, small shops near Fan Zones and stadiums could only sell Budweiser beer on match days.
So yes, FIFA absolutely does dictate conditions to host governments when it suits FIFA. Infantino pretending otherwise is nonsense.
في 1966 وقت استضافة انجلترا لكأس العالم، لم تكن هناك أي علاقات دبلوماسية لها مع كوريا الشمالية.. عد أن شاركت في الحرب بجانب كوريا الجنوبية ضد كوريا الشمالية
لكن الأخيرة تأهلت قانونيا للبطولة بعد أن تغلبت على أستراليا.. وانجلترا كانت تفكر بعدم منح تأشيرات للكوريين
لكن تدخلت فيفا و هددت انجلترا بأن البطولة سيتم نقلها لدولة أخرى في حال استخدمت التأشيرات كسلاح ضد دولة تأهلت رسميا لكأس العالم
و رضخت انجلترا و منحت تأشيرات للكوريين الشماليين جميعا
بينما اليوم حتى الحكم اللي ماله ذنب في شيء و يملك تأشيرة سارية المفعول، يتم طرده و تتجاهله فيفا كليا ولا كأنه عندها مسؤولية للتأكد من نزاهة البطولة وعدم تداخل السياسة والرياضة
بدون ذكر منع لاعبين من الدخول، مضايقة القادمين للبلد، حرمان أعضاء بعثات، و غيرها الكثير
