Unlike FIFA, which makes billions of the World Cup, the Mexican government, which loses millions/billions on the World Cup, has built hundreds of community pitches. FIFA has become a pure self-serving corrupt oligarchy, which does little but harm the global advance of soccer.

For a century, American wars were planned by think tankers drawn from the boards of Goldman Sachs and Chevron. It gave rise to horrors like Vietnam and Iraq. That era is over. What comes next is very likely worse.

“Everyone should be allowed to carry a gun for their safety but the government can murder you in the street if you have a gun” is an incredible endpoint for the conservative moment

It would be better closing it altogether and burning the server, but I see Paris being a considerate centrist here 🤣

When Elon Musk rolled back Grok safeguards, he enabled millions of people to be victimized. Shamefully, governments did little to protect their citizens. The X deepfake scandal shows why we need far stricter social media regulation as a stepping stone to new platforms — not just higher age limits.

DHS just sent another statement about ICE’s abduction of a 5-year-old in Minnesota. They didn’t address my question about whether the child was moved to Texas. They also didn’t provide any evidence for their claims. They are, however, claiming the child’s “alleged mother” actually abandoned him.

DHS: Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin: "ICE did NOT target or arrest a child. On January 20, ICE conducted a targeted operation to arrest Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias an illegal alien from Ecuador who was RELEASED into the U.S. by the Biden administration. As agents approached, Adrian Alexander Conejo Arias fled on foot-abandoning his child. For the child's safety, one of our ICE officers remained with the child while the other officers apprehended Conejo Arias. Our officer's made multiple attempts to get the alleged mother who was inside the house to take custody of her child. Officers even assured her she would NOT be taken her into custody. The alleged mother refused to accept custody of the child. The father told officers he wanted the child to remain with him. "During this situation, agitators swarmed the scene and began yelling and blowing horns, scaring the child. "Our officers primary concern during the entire operation was the safety and welfare of the child. Following the mother's abandonment of the child, officers abided by the father's wishes to keep the child with him and even got the child McDonald's and played his favorite music. Father and son are together at Dilley.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

An unmitigated disaster and, unfortunately, a blueprint for many bad-faith actor against research and higher education all around the world.
