“Those who foolishly sought power by riding the back of the tiger ended up inside” - JFK

This weekend’s issues with visas over Iran and related stories reveal something else about the Infantino-Trump relationship that weighs over this World Cup - despite the cozying, the Trump administration have helped Fifa with almost nothing

I thought the whole point of giving orange man the made up peace prize was so that shit like this wouldn’t happen

[Dale Johnson @DaleJohnsonBBC]

Omar Artan, who was set to be the first Somalian to referee at the World Cup finals, has been dropped from the list of officials after he was denied entry to the United States.

The BBC reports that the American FBI has been ordered to stop investigating Osama bin Laden and his family due to fear of damaging the United States’s relationship with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

@NickTimiraos @darioperkins The Fed is on record that UST market functioning is in the national interest. If they were not backstopping USTs via support for repo markets though ample reserves, where do you think USTs would be and then where do think equities would be?

@henrycooke What spending is “revenue”?

Brooklyn, NY 🇺🇸
Mayor Mamdani, Spike Lee and Jason Sudeikis celebrate Arsenal’s title

[Col. Lateral @offbalancetweet]

@rustie5555 I am pleased for the popularity of the sport in the city. But yea, it’s a bit of an indictment on the league that a new team can be minor premiers in their first season and win it in their second.

[After review @Dayman4hhh]

Arsenal fanbase political spectrum is stupid man. How are Priti Patel, Keir Starmer, Zohran Mamdani and Jeremy Corbyn celebrating the same thing?

[Bloomberg @business]

African presidents took to social media to welcome Arsenal’s first English Premier League title in more than two decades, tapping into the club’s vast fan base across the continent https://t.co/F2OewFjjwf

Liked more tweets in the past 5 hours than in the previous 5 years combined #COYG 🔴⚪️

Ooooooh Jer-emy Corrrrr-byn

[Jeremy Corbyn @jeremycorbyn]

Incredible scenes outside the Emirates. A moment I will never forget.

Arsenal - Premier League Champions!
#COYG

[Barney Ronay @barneyronay]

For all the guff and weird objections an excellent team has won the league. It's a very good achievement. A good season. Nice to have different champions. Maybe... no one needs to be upset!

[Col. Lateral @offbalancetweet]

It’s been a long time. 22 years. The intersection of Arsenal fans and All Black fans might get this. It feels like RWC2011. The one we just *had* to win. Ultimately, it wasn’t pretty, but we got it done. #COYG 🔴⚪️

Probably not an exact quote of what he said, but anyone who thinks this has no idea how any organisation actually operates

@rustie5555 Hang it in the Louvre

[Col. Lateral @offbalancetweet]

I think this is right. T won’t blow a gasket because Warsh was his pick and because he’s “central casting”

[Joe Weisenthal @TheStalwart]

If I had to guess. A) Kevin Warsh does not, in fact, cut rates and B) Trump doesn't blow a gasket, and is weirdly chill about it

[Col. Lateral @offbalancetweet]

@conksresearch @EauDeMacro Respectfully, it’s going to be more nuanced. We’ve already seen, ahead of his arrival, a lot more “how can we shrink the balance sheet by changing regulatory incentives to hold reserves” stuff from the Fed that we probably wouldn’t have seen if he wasn’t the incoming chair

[Col. Lateral @offbalancetweet]

@Tiare_MP Because he’s peddling 1990s nostalgia.

[Col. Lateral @offbalancetweet]

@jacktame A fully integrated trans-Tasman economic area (with common regs) solves this. NZ is too small a market on its own for many companies to bother with
