Zinedine Zidane on Colombia after Portugal 0-0 Colombia:

"People are looking at the scoreline and saying it was 0-0. I watched the match and saw something completely different. Colombia didn't survive against Portugal they outplayed them. The only thing missing was a goal that should have changed everything."

"The disallowed goal in stoppage time will hurt because they deserved that moment. They played with courage, intensity and personality. Portugal looked relieved to hear the final whistle, while Colombia walked off wondering how they didn't win."

"This team is no accident. They're disciplined without the ball, fearless with it, and every player believes they belong on the biggest stage. If opponents keep underestimating Colombia, they're making the biggest mistake of this World Cup."

"Forget the big names and the betting favorites. After what I saw tonight, Colombia have everything needed to lift the trophy. They defend together, attack without fear and never stop believing. That's exactly what champions look like."

"I'll say it now because many people won't have the courage to: Colombia are one of the biggest favorites to win this World Cup. If they keep playing like this, the rest of the world should start worrying."

My father walked out on my family when I was a kid. My mother raised us. I made my own way, joined the Marines, and built a life he had no part in. There are thousands of American boys doing the same thing right now, growing up determined to be better men than the fathers who left them.

Kari Lake decided to take the hardest part of my family’s life and turn it into a weapon. She has claimed for years that I'm controlled by the cartels because of my father.

I am not ashamed of where I come from. Kari Lake should be ashamed of what she is willing to say to get ahead. Thank you to @SenTimKaine for calling it how it is.

🚨🗣️New: Luis Suárez reacts to Uruguay’s arrival in the United States for the World Cup, where the squad faced sniffer dogs and rigorous security checks:

“I’ve been in football a long time, and I’ve seen tournaments all over the world. But what we’re witnessing here with the USA hosting this World Cup is deeply concerning. Take the Uruguay team arriving — world-class players like Manuel Ugarte, standing there with arms folded, looking utterly bewildered as sniffer dogs go through their bags like they’re common criminals. That image says it all. These are ambassadors of the game, not suspects at the border.

This isn’t hospitality; it’s humiliation dressed up as security. You’ve got a Somali referee, one of Africa’s best, denied entry despite a valid visa — a man who dreamed of officiating at the pinnacle of his career, turned away at the airport. African and South American delegations facing extra screenings, visa chaos for fans and officials from qualified nations. This is the ‘land of the free’ rolling out the red carpet? It feels more like a fortress with razor wire.

The beautiful game deserves better than being turned into a political football or a paranoid checkpoint. FIFA chased the dollars — and there are billions to be made, no doubt — but they’ve sold the soul of the tournament to a host that treats global football stars and supporters like potential threats. Meanwhile, American taxpayers and host cities are left holding a bill running into hundreds of millions for security and logistics that FIFA largely pockets.

Football has always been about unity, passion, and bringing people together across borders. Right now, under this hosting, it’s being strangled by suspicion and overreach. The world is watching these scenes and cringing. If this continues, it risks leaving a bitter taste that lingers far longer than any on-pitch glory. We needed a celebration of the game — not a showcase of division. Something has to change.”

@Dee_STX @allthatbazzz @LeeMerrittesq Have you seen the video? Come on

[monica pardo @mo_pardo]

@allthatbazzz @LeeMerrittesq Not single. And nothing has been proven.

[monica pardo @mo_pardo]

@LeeMerrittesq Careful. This may not be the true story. You assume all of this and it seems the kids were NOT abused at all. Before you go ahead and spread things that have not been proven, wait and see what unfolds

[monica pardo @mo_pardo]

@DianaMunozC En el Video nunca parecía que el hombre estuviera abusando del niño. Tenemos tanta basura en la cabeza que siempre pensamos lo peor y si la realidad es otra, destrozaron varias vidas.

#BREAKING: McCaskill: “…who knew that the [White House] Situation Room was going to be the hallowed place where we talked about sex scandals that the president was afraid of coming out in public? And clearly there’s only ONE reason this stuff [#Epstein files] hasn’t been released. It’s not protecting the innocent, it’s not him worrying about the victims, it is just Donald Trump. There’s stuff in this file, and the article even references some of it…It’s weird to be talking about NIPPLES on the Deadline White House show, but they were talking about it in the Situation Room, over Donald Trump’s proclivity to have certain sexual activity with some of these girls…this isn’t going away…as always, the coverup is…worse than the crime…”😳

🚨 US Disrepects Africa’s Top Referee: Somalia Welcomes Him Home as a National Hero

Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan—2025 Africa Referee of the Year and the first Somali ever selected for a FIFA World Cup—arrived in Miami with a valid visa and diplomatic passport.

The response from US authorities? Turned away over vague, arbitrary “vetting concerns.” FIFA immediately fell in line and kicked him off the tournament. A lifetime dream shattered by blatant profiling.

But look at Mogadishu today. Flags flying high, massive crowds filling the streets, and pure national pride. A hero’s welcome for a man who earned his spot on the world stage through pure merit.

This is the exact same America that constantly lectures the world on “fair play,” “diversity,” and a “rules-based order.” Yet, the moment world-class African excellence shows up at their border, the gates slam shut.

No transparency. No respect for official state documents. Just another masking of systemic bias while they preach corporate inclusion to the masses.

Somalia showed dignity and solidarity. The world witnessed the double standards. Talent has no borders—but Western gatekeeping certainly does.

Stand with African excellence. Reject the hypocrisy.

[Maria Shriver @mariashriver]

I’ve been thinking a lot about the extraordinary outbursts of the President of the United States against female journalists... well, actually against journalists in general and journalism. But it feels like he saves his most childlike behavior and irrational language for female reporters, calling them all kinds of names that kids in kindergarten are given times out for. It’s stunning to me to witness such behavior from any leader, any CEO, any person of influence or importance. I’ve never witnessed someone like this raging, this weekend with @meetthepress host @kwelkernbc, just last week in the Oval Office with @cnn’s @kaitlancollins, calling women stupid or piggy, telling them to “smile”, calling them darling, demeaning their credibility. Every good man should denounce this behavior. Every person should be able to stand up for their colleagues and say “No more.”

Imagine this man screaming like this at your daughter, your wife, your sister, your mother... would you stand for it? No, you wouldn’t! And neither should any of us. It’s unacceptable and undignified. Period. End of story.
