This is what happens when you put dumbasses in charge of a country because you treat politics like a team sport btw

[Jamie Bonkiewicz @JamieBonkiewicz]

My daughter plays sports. The last thing I’m worried about is her having a trans teammate or opponent. I’m far more worried about her male coaches and trainers. That’s the conversation we should be having.

Socialism is NOT Communism

Capitalism - anybody can be rich
Communism - nobody can be rich
Socialism - anybody can be rich but nobody should be poor

Thierry and Zlatan saying they wouldn't have become soccer players because of the costs of the American youth system, then seeing Lalas say it's a great system because it makes a lot of money for some people really sums it all up nicely

FIFA are supposed to suspend countries whose politicians interfere in how the World Cup is managed.

Go for it Belgium. Take legal action Court of Arbitration in Sport, Switzerland, and US courts all at the same time.

Do it for the game.

Gianni Infantino needs to be kicked out of FIFA. He’s the worst thing to have ever happened to football.

The first SENTENCE of the 1st Amendment states:

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof…”

If you can’t tax billionaires and trillionaire because “its unrealized gains until they cash out,” then stop letting them leverage that wealth for loans, as collateral, or as equity.

If it’s not real enough to tax, it shouldn’t be real enough to leverage.

This is why we say the system is rigged in favor of the super wealthy. Abolish billionaires, tax them out of existence, protect working people.

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.

CNN = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
CBS = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
FOX = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
WaPo = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.
WSJ = Owned by a right-wing billionaire.

Ah yes, tell me more about how the mainstream media is “far left.”

Never thought we'd live in a timeline where Nazi Germany's Olympics were more welcoming than the current WC hosts but here we are

Wow, if you read this you might get the impression that trump is getting ready to steal the next election! And you’d be right.

[Pranav Sriraman @PranavSriraman]

The people who have it the worst from Trump’s appearance at MSG tonight are the local workers, restaurants, bars, and other businesses. Tonight was going to be their best day of business possibly ever. Trump robbed them of that entirely. Very unfortunate, yet very on brand.

🔴 Énorme DINGUERIE encore des États-Unis...

L'arbitre somalien Omar Artan 🇸🇴 s'est vu refuser son entrée aux États-Unis, alors qu'il est sensé officier pendant la Coupe du Monde ! 🙄

Malgré l'aide appuyée de l'ambassade somalienne de Nairobi, qui lui a fourni un PASSEPORT DIPLOMATIQUE, M. Artan a dû faire demi tour à son arrivée aux USA.

On parle d'une personne qui a été élue MEILLEUR ARBITRE AFRICAIN EN 2025 ! 🤦‍♂️

[🟢] NEW: Thiago Alcântara is in talks to return to Liverpool as an assistant coach following the imminent appointment of Andoni Iraola as manager.

The club sees Thiago as someone who knows the club inside out and can help restore the ‘Liverpool Way’ both on the pitch and in the training environment.

This Dembele winning a Balon d'Or and Mo Salah never winning one shows why you should never take that goth award seriously.
