Red cards are not overturned by political phone calls. They are overturned by rules, evidence and independent bodies. If a U.S. President intervenes with the FIFA President — and a player is suddenly cleared before a World Cup knockout match — the question is unavoidable: Quo vadis, FIFA?
Football must never become a playground for political power. #FIFA #WorldCup #GianniInfantino #DonaldTrump
The United States, (as currently constituted and led) is one of the most corrupt nation on the surface of the earth.
That was your president who just confessed to a crime.
US President Donald Trump asked FIFA's president to review the one-game ban of US striker Folarin Balogun, a source says, days before FIFA reversed itself and lifted the ban. https://t.co/GtFmGFAfBg
Infantino has brought shame on a game we love so much. I can't blame @realDonaldTrump in this. He is as corrupt as you can get. He has also shown the FIFA president that you get burned getting in bed with the devil. I am hoping all associations will hold Infantino accountable.
⚽ 🏆 🇺🇸 FIFA "crossed a red line" with the decision to suspend US star Folarin Balogun's one-match ban for a year, European football's governing body UEFA said on Monday, a ruling which permits Balogun to play in the co-hosts' World Cup last 16 match with Belgium ➡️ https://t.co/kG9KPrHbuf
South African anti-immigration groups are shutting down businesses owned by foreigners.
The groups have shut down shops, salons, car washes and other businesses run by foreigners including those owned by legal immigrants.
Most US presidents have a library. @realDonaldTrump is planning to have one too. He needs to learn how to read first. Or is he unaware of what a library celebrates?
The phrase "leader of the free world" is reserved for a democracy. There's no democracy without journalism, since your leader hates journalists, you are NOT a democracy and therefore @realDonaldTrump is NOT the Leader of the Free World. Guess who is? @MarkJCarney is!
Even as former President, if @BarackObama ends an interview abruptly like the spineless @realDonaldTrump did, the @GOP would have gone on overdrive of emotions and noise. Of course, whatever the MAGA cult leader does is excused.
You can't afford basic things, yet you think a $250 introduction is one thing that will solve your problems. No wonder the US is one of the least informed nations in America.
Microsoft, Amazon,KPMG, Schlumberger and other big organizations look for and excitedly hire Nigerians but @moniepointng says Nigerian kids aren't employable.
This is very easy to solve. All Nigerian kids should end their banking relationship with MoniePoint in protest.
@realDonaldTrump at his first correspondence dinner : "For all the nasty things I have done and said to the press, infringing on your 1st Amendment rights, from the bottom of my heart, I apologize and I am sorry.
That was a joke!"
Me: Heartless persons can't apologize.
We have not forgotten that in an attempt to deflect on the files that proved they touched babies inappropriately and ate some babies like BBQ, they launched a needless war in the middle east triple rapping an all girls elementary school killing 168 of them.
