From @TheAtheltic: The U.S. became the second country to reach the knockout stage of the 2026 World Cup with a commanding 2-0 victory over Australia in Seattle. nyti.ms/4eAdUUK
The United States is through to the knockout rounds of the 2026 World Cup after a 2-0 win over Australia in a game that got increasingly tense in the second half despite a comfortable American lead. cnn.it/4vhJ62l
@mcfadzean_neil@CNN They ran into each other. This is why soccer can be a laughing stock. People dive or barely get touched and fans want cards.
Such gentle little players.
@ybnl_guzman@CNN Well this was a stupid comment. Paraguay before this tournament beat brazil and Argentina ..
Clueless from Nigeria, no surprise there 😂😂
@Bosey1982@menolikey101@nytimes@TheAthleticFC Comparing Africa to the US and suggesting it's becoming a 3rd world is just ridiculous. And shows your education has clearly not improved.
You might want to check in on the US. It’s becoming a shithole country with long gone illnesses and diseases making a comeback. If you like a bit of screw worm on your morning toast you can get that too. Oh and the worst disease of all. That’s the disgusting fat fuck as President.
From @TheAthleticFC: Senegal captain Kalidou Koulibaly has questioned why his country’s fans have been hamstrung in their attempts to support their national team during the World Cup, with Senegalese nationals facing a travel ban in the United States. nyti.ms/4ep8aNx
@madzima@nytimes@TheAthleticFC@FIFAcom Nothing but positive videos from every tourist in the US from the world cup. Your fake outrage over a serious problem like overstaying visas is a low IQ take.
@nytimes@TheAthleticFC The problem lies with FIFA on my opinion. They could have moved the games to a more friendlier country for it to be truly a world Cup for all nations not just Europe and Americas. @FIFAcom didn't have the spine to discourage the racism from Trump
@foxandfriends Subcontractors made 3-4 times as much money on this project as they would have done if construction was done on time and up to budget. Overall construction cost are in the billions of dollars siphon from taxpayers money.
HAPPENING TODAY: The Obama Presidential Center will hold its grand opening ceremony—but some subcontractors claim they have still not been paid.
Construction firms who helped build the 19.3-acre campus on Chicago’s South Side say they face financial ruin as they race to recover millions of dollars they claim remain unpaid.
Overall construction costs were reported to be $830 million in 2021, making it the most expensive presidential library in modern history.
@Magma35689@foxandfriends A couple of morons somehow manage to move away from Obama not paying millions to contractors, into trump.
It's really impressive that you've the reading comprehension of a 2 year old. 😂
@foxandfriends If I were a contractor I’d be a lot more concerned about getting paid if it was the Trump library—you know, because he has the reputation of stiffing contractors for decades.
PATH TO PEACE: New details are emerging about the proposed U.S.-Iran agreement.
The framework reportedly includes reopening the Strait of Hormuz, ending the U.S. blockade, a 60-day negotiation period over uranium enrichment, sanctions relief, and a ceasefire involving Israel and Hezbollah.
@TreyYingst breaks down what we know so far.
@ukraine_world The most immoral hypocrite is the UN.
Meanwhile CHINA illegally built landmasses near the Philippines and claims the entire sea. UN doesn't do anything
The UN arbitral tribunal has rejected Moscow's claims to Ukrainian maritime areas and officially ruled that Russia violated the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea.
This was stated by Ukraine's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The tribunal confirmed that the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait are the internal waters of two states — Ukraine and Russia, rather than a "Russian lake." Accordingly, Ukraine remains a coastal state in the Black Sea, the Sea of Azov, and the Kerch Strait, and no unilateral actions taken by Russia after 2022 have altered that status.
The tribunal also found that Russia violated the UN Convention during the construction of the Kerch Bridge and the laying of underwater cables and a gas pipeline, including by failing to conduct proper environmental impact assessments.
The ruling was issued on April 22, 2026. Ukraine initiated the case on September 14, 2016, in response to Russia's violations of its obligations under UNCLOS in the maritime areas off the coast of Crimea beginning in 2014.

@SawyerMerritt What a fucking waste, wtf would one buy a code editor for 60B for ? “The users…” eh, no way, users are fickle and jump on the next new thing that improves productivity. We see this with ai models, people shuffle around.
SpaceX has officially announced that it is buying Cursor for $60 billion, according to a new 8-K filing.
The company currently expects the merger to close during the third quarter of 2026.
@JessIsAStar1@PaulWolfCO@ZelenskyyUa@KremlinRussia_E You realize Putin isn't stealing people off of Ukraines streets to force into war? 😂
Typical British moron. Not surprised by the lack of intelligence. Hell you let your own people get beheaded by migrants and don't do anything about it 😮
I thank all friends of Ukraine and everyone who helps us obtain important information and supports Ukrainian intelligence operations. Our intelligence agencies reported on the results of their work to assess the internal situation in Russia and obtain documents that end up on the Russian leader’s desk. We understand that Putin rarely receives information that is entirely truthful and unvarnished. But even what he sees in the documents that reach him still allows conclusions to be drawn.
In particular, the so-called “projected indicators” of Russians’ dissatisfaction with Putin will continue to rise steadily, and he is already being conditioned to accept the idea that this growing dissatisfaction cannot be stopped and that this indicator “will not plateau” by September, when parliamentary elections are scheduled in Russia.
As for the level of support for Russia’s ruling party, a steady downward trend is being recorded, which means significantly greater electoral fraud will be needed. They are also reporting a substantial rise in protest sentiment in Russian regions. We believe these reports also do not yet take into account the potential events of June, July, and August, which are bound to further affect the situation in Russia.
The entirely justified pressure on Russia over this war will continue and intensify – and it won’t be just our pressure. So by September, Putin will be facing significantly worse indicators. Unfortunately, to all the public and non-public peace proposals we have made, the only response has been words about continuing his war.
The internal situation in Russia should convince him of the opposite: that peace is needed. Ukraine is proposing to negotiate a dignified peace. Obviously, the trends will not change, and over time this may mean that an agreement will have to be reached with someone else from Russia – someone who will not shut themselves off from reality. Glory to Ukraine!
@ATondowsky@cmonjussthetip@DecisionDeskHQ You really shouldn't describe yourself like that. But you really hit the nail on the head. Re and braindead describe you so well! 😂😂
Republicans have gotten the better of redistricting. But the Democrats’ ~6 point lead on the generic ballot is large enough to make them favorites to win the U.S. House — at least right now.
This week's DDHQ polling memo digs into why. Click link below to learn more.
The U.S. men’s national team began the World Cup with a dominant 4-1 win, overwhelming Paraguay with a first-half scoring squall that raised hopes, expectations and the noise level inside the stadium. wapo.st/4uwHxfy
@ElliotES44@washingtonpost America wants legal immigrants. We love them.
And one of your best is Marc Guehi. 😂 Most teams have immigrant families who's sons play.
Stop being so negative and tunnel minded. You need to touch grass. 😩
@washingtonpost So.... Your most valuable player is an accidental American, the son of two Nigerians, who has lived his entire life in England, and you had to convince him to play for your national team. But immigrants are scum and should get deported. Am I getting this right?
