@obrien_kat@mastodon.world wow. We all knew FIFA was built on corruption but this seems a little too obvious to overlook. #trumo #balogun #worldcup #uspol

Trump makes a call to his amiguito Infantino, pushing for Balogun’s red card/one-game suspension to be overturned, and voila, Balogun can play tomorrow night. It’s just gross, and kinda makes me want to root against the U.S., even though it’s not the players’ fault and I also don’t really like Belgium. Also, ironic he is pushing to get back a player he doesn’t think is a citizen. I guess he’s stopping the birthright citizenship fight?? https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/05/us/trump-fifa-balogun-world-cup.html #trumo #balogun #worldcup #uspol
