President Trump thanks FIFA for “reversing a great injustice” by suspending Folarin Balogun’s red-card ban, allowing him to play Monday against Belgium in the World Cup

[Greg Rosenstein @grosenstein]

President Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino to review the red card suspension given to U.S. star Folarin Balogun, @NBCNews' @albamonica confirmed.

Balogun's one-game ban was reversed on Sunday and he's eligible to play Monday vs. Belgium.

In 1942, James Cagney was told to just walk down the stairs in "Yankee Doodle Dandy." Instead, he decided to improvise a tap dance down the slick marble steps. The crew tried to stop him due to the high injury risk. He ignored them, nailed it in ONE take.

One year ago today, Trump and Republicans passed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, cutting healthcare by $1 trillion. Since then:

—The average cost of healthcare has doubled
—4.2 million Americans lost ACA coverage
—3.8 million Americans lost Medicaid coverage
—Nearly 500 hospitals, clinics, and nursing homes have closed

It is dangerous to believe things just because you want them to be true. You can get tricked if you don’t question yourself or others, especially people in authority.

Anything that’s truly real can stand up to scrutiny.

[Rep. Mike Levin @RepMikeLevin]

This should be on the front page of every newspaper in America.  

Trump’s DOJ shut down a federal investigation into a coal company owned by one of his closest Senate allies, after it racked up tens of thousands of alleged violations for dumping toxic chemicals into our waterways.

As a fan, I am obviously overjoyed that Balogun will get to play and that this injustice was corrected. But man does this look awful for FIFA and it will make the rest of the world feel like the tournament was rigged.

I know Trump saying “Folarin Balogun” on that phone sounded like Harry Potter spells

[Brett Meiselas @BMeiselas]

WOW: Daily Caller editor in chief alleges Donald Trump is responsible for the white nationalist group Patriot Front in DC today. This is truly a stunning accusation!

[Jared Holt @jaredlholt]

Daily Wire editor in chief alleges Trump administration, for some reason working in concert with the Southern Poverty Law Center despite pursuing criminal charges against the org, planted a white nationalist group in DC this morning

[Brett Meiselas @BMeiselas]

WOW: MAGA influencer Benny Johnson accuses Trump of sending in federal agents dressed as Nazis to terrorize the DC population today. A stunning accusation!!!

[Acyn @Acyn]

Jim Acosta says all the Trump vanity projects should be torn down:

Bring in a panel of experts to look at how the ballroom could be retrofitted so it doesn’t look like an eyesore and an embarrassment. And if that can’t happen, then you tear the whole thing down and start all over again.

This is like the end days of Saddam Hussein that we’re seeing right now, with the way he’s trying to build things and take over projects down in Washington, D.C. It does not speak to somebody who is at all healthy.

Donald Trump is the most corrupt president in our nation’s history.
And it’s not even fucking close.

In the history of stupid fucking cults, this one is by far the fucking stupidest.
