This is the part that really makes no sense to me. There are three host countries. Why have them keep flying back and forth between the US and Mexico? Why not just have their matches all be in Mexico or Canada?

This post is unavailable.

Is there a list of all the teams they‘re doing this to? I don’t understand it. The World Cup is supposedly being hosted by 3 countries. If they keep making the Iranian team (& whichever other teams they’re doing this to) fly to Mexico, why not just make sure all their matches are in Mexico?

Danielle Swiontek@daniellesw.bsky.social

FIFA is doing this to a lot of teams. Austria and Qatar have been stationed in our town, and they are constantly flying out at 2 or 3 am to go to a game. I don’t know why they aren’t staying in hotels the night before their games. They must be exhausted

First step: subject SCOTUS to the same code of ethics and consequences for violation that all federal justices are expected to meet.

Today, any income earned above $184,500 is not subject to Social Security employee tax. If all income over $400,000 were subject to Social Security payroll tax, Social Security’s solvency would be guaranteed forever. RAISE THE CAP

Can somebody please fire this idiot alread? Don’t put him in charge of more stuf.

Wtaf? How stupid and greedy can our state be? Do they care at all that they’re risking Texans’ lives?

Texas Standard@texasstandard.bsky.social

Texas regulators are moving closer to allowing treated wastewater from oil and gas drilling operations to be reused on farmland and other sites. Supporters say it could help ease the state’s growing water shortages, while critics warn about potential health and environmental risks.

@jamestalarico.bsky.socialI have seen multiple ads (or maybe it’s the same ad multiple times) where you ask people to give you 5 dollars, but that’s practically the entire ad. Please use part of the ad to explain why people should vote for you! Requests for money could be written on the screen.

wtf?

“If the government decides, very quickly, to bulldoze the Statue of Liberty... nothing can be done?” asked Judge Patricia Millett. “I think that’s right, yes,” responded DOJ attorney Yaakov Roth www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

@popeyes.bsky.social is insanely slow. No wonder I hardly ever get chicken from here. 😕 I ordered through the app at 7:21, got here at 7:46, and they told me 15 more minutes. 😡

How can the North Texas FIFA World Cup Organizing Committee say this with a straight face? “With great respect for Wyland’s legacy, a portion of the original mural will remain preserved as a tribute to its lasting impact on the city.” www.newsweek.com/sports/fifas...

newsweek.comDallas lost a 30-Year mural for the World Cup. FIFA has done this beforeThe erasure of a 27-year-old mural, ahead of the World Cup has sparked concern over the tournament's impact.

Also, do people who turn 18 this year still need to sign up for “selective service“? I thought that was supposedly not a draft, but if everyone gets signed up when they turn 18, I’m confuse. Also, #NoDraft! Especially when the president & congress can’t be trusted to keep us out of war 🤬

Can somebody please lock Stephen Miller up already? Some of what he’s done has to be illegal.

Left Of Center Orange Hater@leftocorangehater.bsky.social

Stephen Miller urged Department of Homeland Security agents to “force confrontations” with protesters in Minneapolis.

It’s the 2nd in a series; 1st is My Roommate is a Vampire. The accountant is only briefly in book 1. Highly recommend series. Humorous romance series with vampires and humans (including an accountant who’s the main character in book 2). I’m about to start book 3 (Road Trip with a Vampire).

Seriously?!?

Alt National Park Service@altnps.bsky.social

The Justice Department forced the Florida Bar to drop its probe. The Florida Bar said today it is no longer investigating former Justice Department attorney Lindsey Halligan, reversing an earlier statement that a review was underway

Wtaf? They need to leave all kids alone.

Tim Dickinson@timdickinson.bsky.social

Today I saw ICE gas little white kids in the streets of Portland with chemical weapons. Imagine what they're doing to brown and black kids in the detention camps

kp-tx.bsky.social reposted

If they are truly "only after dangerous criminals" ICE should not be able to lay a hand on ANYONE unless they have a warrant for that person. Random abductions of US citizens should be punishable. ICE should be held accountable for bodily injury, damage to property and loss of life. ICE OUT NOW!

wtaf?

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.gov

The CDC's job is to monitor and prevent diseases. But now RFK Jr's handpicked deputy director says he "doesn't care" about whether or not measles is officially eliminated. This is about KIDS getting sick and even DYING  from something WE CAN PREVENT. Beyond despicable.

Wtaf?

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.

A good cause

Aa handful of complicit sycophants does not count as "many great legal scholars." Also, they urged people to disobey illegal orders, which is part of their training and required by law.

This sounds like a good idea.

The Tennessee Holler @thetnholler.bsky.social

WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.” Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

ICE...in its current form...is not a "law enforcement agency" that should exist in any country on earth. Everything about the way they are operating is light-years away from being consistent with what this country is about. We have seen evidence that many of the people employed by ICE are bad news.

Who are they (USDA) to tell grocery stores they can't give SNAP recipients discounts? Will HEB (Texas grocery store) get in trouble for raising money for TX food relief programs to help SNAP recipients? (article about HEB's efforts at www.nbcdfw.com/about-nbc-5/...)

Elizabeth Jacobs, PhD@elizabethjacobs.bsky.social

Trump’s USDA has emailed grocery retailers warning them not to give discounts to SNAP recipients who will not be receiving assistance this month. While we’re on this topic, it’s a great time to donate to a local food bank if you can. Diaper banks also need help if you have one nearby.

Can somebody please kick him out of the speaker’s seat already like they did to Kevin McCarthy? Does the house have to be in session for that to happen?

Sahil Kapur@sahilkapur.bsky.social

Speaker Johnson has decided to keep the House in recess all through next week. This will be the seventh consecutive week of recess for the chamber. It has not been in session since Sept. 19.
