Most Americans want to say nice things about the team and its players before condemning Trump & FIFA. No, your team is very much a part of this corruption. The coaching staff & the players are eager to use the Trump-Infantino friendship for a successful World Cup campaign

“What the SCOTUS fails to recognize, however, is that their ruling is predicated on the misguided vilification of transgender athletes, with impacts that will continue to ostracize transgender people in sports and broader society.” My latest for Common Dreams: www.commondreams.org/opinion/tran...

“I’m just glad they’re done, and they’re not coming back. I was so happy when we were able to pull their visas and said they could leave the US soil, and I might’ve sung a song or two or maybe even danced a happy dance.” Literally, the US Secretary of DHS on Iran being eliminated from the World Cup

The US homeland security secretary, Markwayne Mullin, said during a World Cup security briefing: “I’m just glad they’re done, and they’re not coming back. I was so happy when we were able to pull their visas and said they could leave the US soil, and I might’ve sung a song or two or maybe even danced a happy dance.”

All of our World Cup episodes in one place. Creating this delightful set of conversations has been exhilarating. The kind of critical reflections and analysis you won't find elsewhere. Check out this thread👇🏽 More coming over the next few weeks

I’m really proud of the work we have done so far in our coverage of the World Cup. So proud that I’m going to indulge in a thread (in reverse order) sharing our episodes, since I can’t imagine most people have been able to keep up.
