For the past year, MAGA has been screaming “Europoor” like a cheap car alarm going off at three in the morning. Nobody asked for it, nobody knows how to turn it off. But then along comes this chart. America sits at number four in average wealth. Except “average” is the statistic billionaires hide behind. Put Elon Musk in a room with 500 broke MAGA guys, and on average, everyone in that room is a multibillionaire. That’s the trick! Now look at the median. The actual middle American, the real one with the pickup truck, the missing teeth and the medical debt. Fourteenth place. Behind Belgium. Behind Italy. Behind Spain. And the ordinary European? The man MAGA calls a Europoor pays $9 for his insulin, glances over at the American paying $900 for the exact same vial, shrugs, and goes back to being more than twice as wealthy. He’d feel sorry for you, but honestly, he’s too busy being on vacation. And that gap between fourth and fourteenth? That’s not a statistical quirk. That’s the entire scam laid bare. America’s wealth exists. It’s just not yours. It belongs to about eleven people in Palo Alto, and you’ve been guarding it for them for free, like an unpaid nightclub bouncer, shouting at Europeans on the internet while the owners drink champagne inside. American exceptionalism. No other nation on Earth has ever been this successfully convinced to cheer for its own fleecing. So by all means, keep shouting Europoor. We’ll be over here with our healthcare, our six weeks of vacation, and our double-your-median wealth, trying very hard to hear you over the sound of how sorry we feel.

Trump: “Denmark doesn’t spend money to really help Greenland, but it’s an important part for the United States. Greenland should be controlled by the US.” You uneducated, ignorant, stupid fuck…Denmark provides for Greenlanders: free healthcare, free education including university, unemployment benefits, sick and maternity leave. These are benefits you don’t even provide for Americans. x.com/clashreport/st…

List of players to have their red cards overturned (or suspended) at the World Cup, since the card was introduced in 1970: 🇺🇸 Florian Balogun End of list.

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

I have a hard time understanding Americans who are appalled at the "rigged election" stuff, but support his bullying of Infantino to rescind an on the field decision. So, here-Trump says the red card was the same as rigged elections. He connects the dots for you.

BREAKING: Trump says that if the US lost to Belgium as a result of FIFA refusing to overturn Flo Balogun’s suspension, it would be “rigged” just like how the 2020 election was stolen from him. He has to make everything about himself. He can’t stop lying.

As a fan, I am obviously overjoyed that Balogun will get to play and that this injustice was corrected. But man does this look awful for FIFA and it will make the rest of the world feel like the tournament was rigged.

🚨 Exclusive: The White House made a direct call to FIFA to ask Gianni Infantino to review Folarin Balogun’s red card. FIFA approached for comment and referred to the findings of its independent committee. FIFA sources insist White House influence could not affect the decision

Recently, FIFA suspended Nepal’s football federation over government interference. Several federations have faced sanctions for the same reason. Now we learn the White House made a direct call to FIFA asking Infantino to review Balogun’s red card. FIFA insists the decision was handled by an independent disciplinary panel and could not be influenced externally. But how is a direct call from a government to FIFA over a player’s suspension not, at the very least, political interference?

.@SenMikeLee and Fox News host @IngrahamAngle both claimed the Patriot Affront march through DC on the Fourth of July was really an Antifa rouse. That’s interesting. So Antifa dressed up in Patriot Affront uniforms and tricked the founder of Patriot Front, Thomas Rousseau, to lead their march. Now that’s some next level Antifaing! Rousseau founded Patriot Front in 2017 following the rally in Charlottesville VA that resulted in the murder of Heather Heyer. He told Capital News Service in 2020 that “he believes Trump is a white supremacist who uses the same rhetoric as his group.” He added “It’s encouraging to hear him [Trump] call African countries ‘shitholes’ and say now and then that Mexican illegals are criminals and rapists, and sometimes he even utters some truth about the Jew.” So, Senator Lee and Fox News host Ingraham say that the march yesterday (complete with confederate flags) that Rosseau led was Antifa disguised as Patriot Front. Hmmm? Perhaps it’s the other way around and it’s Patriot Affront that pretends to be Antifa (see article below). If Lee and Ingraham had any integrity they’d tell the truth . . . the marchers in face diapers with confederate flags spewing hate and division are part of their own klan. spectrumlocalnews.com/nc/charlotte/n…
