🚨🚨| JUST IN: US State Department has stepped in to help Cape Verde hero Vozinha’s mother get to the World Cup.
After the 40-year-old goalkeeper’s stunning Man of the Match performance (7 saves) in Cape Verde’s historic 0-0 draw vs Spain, his mother Ana Candida Évora couldn’t be there due to visa & bond costs.
Now the US State Department is actively reaching out to assist with her visa so she can watch her son live.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio has been urged to “do everything in his power” for her to attend Cape Verde’s next match.
Vozinha (who grew up with his late grandparents) was emotional post-game: visa issues priced her out in time.
A coalition spanning Latin America and Europe has issued a joint declaration calling for the immediate release of Venezuela’s president, Nicolás Maduro.
Signatories include Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Chile, Uruguay, and Spain.
Traditional wrestling, known as Laamb, is one of Senegal's most popular sports. Major wrestling matches can fill stadiums and attract millions of viewers across the country.
Top wrestlers enjoy celebrity status and earn some of the biggest sponsorship deals in Senegal 🇸🇳. The sport blends athletic competition with music, dance and centuries-old cultural traditions.
For many Senegalese, Laamb is more than a sport; it is a symbol of national identity.
🤣 Outrage among Japanese women against their country’s fans who attended the World Cup 🇯🇵⚽:
"Our men only clean the stands when cameras are rolling — we don’t see that good behavior when it comes to housework, washing dishes, or tidying up. They don’t help us."
They designed this poster to remind them that helping clean the house is just as important as cleaning the stands. 💀
The mother of Cape Verde’s celebrated goalkeeper Vozinha says she watched his #FIFAWorldCup heroics on the TV, after a visa debacle kept her from travelling to the US for the game.

RACISM AT THE WORLD CUP: AFRICANS FEEL HUMILIATED AND INSULTED
On 9 June 2026, a U.S. official confirmed that Omar Artan, a referee from Somalia selected by FIFA for the World Cup, was denied entry to the United States. He would have been the first Somali to serve as a referee during the world's most prestigious sporting match. Instead, he was forced to return to Somalia under the pretext that he was "with some very bad people." Many people across Africa and worldwide understand the U.S.'s decision to be rooted in racism and imperialism.
Donald Trump has said that Somalis are "all crooks," referred to them as "garbage", and stated that "Somalia is not even a country. They don't have anything that resembles a country.” At the same time, the United States military has been intervening in Somalia since 2003 and has drone-bombed the country perpetually since 2007. During Donald Trump's first term, he bombed Somalia more than any other US president before or after him. During Trump's second term, he broke a record with at least 125 bombings in 2025, more than in any other prior year. If he does not view Somalia as a viable country, could 23 years of U.S. intervention have something to do with the country's current state?
Despite the cruelty and harsh judgment Omar Artan faced in the United States, he was embraced by cheering crowds of thousands. He was also embraced by the President of Somalia, Hassan Sheikh Mohamud. FIFA will pay him his promised salary for the World Cup games, but he has still been denied the opportunity he worked years to achieve.
Sadio Mane : "When I left Bambali, my hometown, I promised three things. Not to disappoint my parents, become a professional football player and return to my village to build a school." So far, he has:
- Built a $693,000 hospital,
- Built a $350,000 school,
- Gives each family €70 monthly,
- Provides 4G internet,
- Gives laptops to students.
The world needs more people like Sadio Mane!

Why Are So Many Europeans Suddenly Leaving Their Countries?
Since 2022, Europeans have been leaving their countries in record numbers, citing everything from rising living costs, to overtaxation, to the antics of their politicians.
The West, which has and continues to sell itself to the rest of the world as the pinnacle of human civilization, seems to be currently experiencing a serious civilizational crisis.
This crisis is not an accident, but the logical demise of the parasitic and inherently unsustainable system that the West imposed on the whole word at the barrel of a g*n over 200 years ago.
And its repercussions should concern every African.
@barrahart reports for The Spearhead.
Last night in Boston, Aymen Hussein scored for Iraq;
At 12, his father was killed by Al-Qaeda.
At 18, his brother was kidnapped by ISIS
At 20, he helped Iraq qualify for the Olympics.
At 30, his decisive goal sent Iraq to their first World Cup in 40 years.
He was detained for seven hours at O’Hare International Airport and nearly denied entry into the United States.
In his very first World Cup match, he scored against Norway.
Some stories are bigger than football!
🚨 Senegal captain Kalidou Koulibaly speaking facts:
"Africans can’t have their people" at the World Cup because of US travel bans.
Every other team gets their fans. But Global South teams like Senegal get blocked while the West lectures everyone about "inclusion" and "human rights".
This is the same empire that bombs, exploits, and restricts — then cries when others resist.
Football should unite people, not separate them with racist visa policies and double standards.
Stand with Koulibaly. Stand with the fans. Stand with the Global South.
No bows. Just raw truth. 💪🏿🇸🇳

Iran wants peace.

Israel does not want peace. It wants to keep waging genocide and stealing land that does not belong to them.
Israel is the problem and must be disarmed, defunded, and dismantled for peace to occur.
