IS THIS THE MOST RIGGED WORLD CUP IN HISTORY?
While Messi was losing 2โ0 to Egypt, tickets for Argentina's next match crashed from $1,800 to $1,000 when Egypt led, then shot past $2,000 within 30 minutes of Messi completing the comeback.
The market priced Messi's survival in real time.
Now look at the pattern. Ronaldo elbowed a player. Threeโmatch ban under FIFA rules. FIFA found a loophole, Article 27, and reduced it to one game. Armenia and Burundi got full bans for similar offenses.
Messi caught a player with his studs. Analysts called it a clear red card. He wasn't booked. Argentina's Otamendi carried a ban. FIFA quietly changed a regulation and the ban disappeared.
USA's Balogun got a red card. Trump called Infantino. FIFA used the same loophole to erase his ban.
One loophole. Used three times. Always for superstars or hosts. Never for small nations.
Now the money. FIFA expects $11 billion from this tournament. Fox paid half a billion for US TV rights. Every dollar depends on stars staying in.
USA and Portugal got knocked out. Within 24 hours, quarterโfinal tickets dropped 60%.
Is protecting the stars smart business or corruption with better lawyers?

Theo Von guest: A year ago, you never met one Trump supporter who went, 'now we're gonna get regime change in Venezuela. That's why I'm excited that Donald Trump's here.' People wanted no new wars. They wanted the economy turned around. This is one more example of Donald Trump just siding with the war hawks over his own people. It's such an intolerable humiliation
