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??

Sen. #MitchMcConnell has spent 3 weeks in the hospital, & his office still will not say what sent the 84-year-old Kentucky Republican there, his latest condition or when he might return.
McConnell, who has served in the #Senate since 1985 & led Senate #Republicans from 2007 until 2025, has not cast a vote since June 11. His absence comes as Republicans are navigating a narrow Senate majority.…

Trump 2.0 has deleted or altered nearly 400 US datasets, endangering public health, education and more ~

In his final days in office, Trump is going to order a flurry of pointless and hurtful executive orders and unnecessarily fire a bunch of people in the government based purely out of spite and sadism - just because he can.
His intent is to hold power until he dies, and if can't then he is going to burn as much of it down as he can, out of spite.
The US is f**** unless Dems massively win the midterms.
Vote in person so there is no question.
Yellow-orange skies from Canadian wildfire smoke, ever-worsening news about federal agents murdering an innocent person for no discernible reason, and the US continuing along its "war crimes as policy" trajectory. The Dystopia Index is high in Maine today.

Autistici/Inventati auf der US-Sanktionsliste
Das US-Regime unter dem Faschisten Trump bzw. das US-Finanzministerium (https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0616/) holt zu einem weiteren Schlag gegen linke Organisierung aus und setzt neben Palestine Action und Masar Badil das italienische Tech-Kollektiv Autistici/Inventati (https://www.autistici.org/) auf die Sanktionsliste. Begründet wird dies damit, dass das Kollektiv internationalen und us-amerikanischen linken Gruppen, besonders „der“ Antifa, mit ihrer technischen Diensten „extrem linken Terrorismus“ ermögliche.
Das heißt, dass A/I von allen finanziellen Diensten ausgeschlossen ist, die us-amerikanische Unternehmen anbieten. Auf ihrer Website unter „Donate“ sieht mensch, dass es dort die Möglichkeiten gibt, per Kreditkarte (also Mastercard oder Visa: beides US-Konzerne) und PayPal (auch ein US-Konzern, gegründet von den Faschisten Thiel und Musk) zu spenden. Aber auch ganz normale Banküberweisungen können betroffen sein, wenn – wie im Fall der Roten Hilfe letzten Winter (https://nigra.noblogs.org/post/2025/12/23/schafft-mehr-rote-hilfe-konten-wieder-her/) – das US-Regime Druck auf die in Belgien sitzende Organisation SWIFT ausübt und in Folge dessen die Konten geschlossen werden.
Ich nutze den Blog-Dienst noblogs.org von A/I seit vielen Jahren, genauso wie viele andere anarchistische Genoss*innen und Gruppen. Ich habe eine Emailadresse bei A/I und auch die anderen Dienste habe ich über die Jahre immer wieder genutzt. A/I ist eines von einer Hand voll linken und anarchistischen vertrauenswürdigen Tech-Kollektiven, die es Menschen wie mir ermöglichen, mich jenseits der durchgeknallten, von Hetz-Algorithmen getriebenen Fascho-Tech-Diensten im Netz zu bewegen und kommunizieren. Die Genoss*innen von A/I haben meine volle Solidarität und ich hoffe, dass die Repression ins Leere läuft.
Bisher habe ich noch keine offizielle Reaktion von A/I gefunden. Ich bin gespannt, wie sie darauf reagieren. Ihr könnt ihnen auf Mastodon (https://mastodon.bida.im/@cavallette) folgen oder ihren offiziellen Blog (https://cavallette.noblogs.org/) lesen.
Wer das Tech-Kollektiv finanziell unterstützen will, kann das noch hier tun: https://www.autistici.org/donate
Solidarität mit Autistici/Inventati!
Gegen Trump und seine Fascho-Meute!
Für die Anarchie!

US Treasury sanctions against Autistici/Inventati, including noblogs.org, are obviously meant to target people who host their blogs there, in a violation of their first amendment rights.

Election wins prove pro-Palestine US campus protests didn’t fail: Activists
"In New York, Darializa Avila Chevalier, an activist who participated in the pro-Palestine protests at Columbia University, won a Democratic congressional primary against a five-term incumbent.
Avila Chevalier’s win was one of several victories for pro-Palestine candidates in New York last week.
Last year, Zohran Mamdani was elected mayor of New York City, in part thanks to the efforts of young pro-Palestine activists who powered his campaign.
In Colorado on Tuesday, Melat Kiros, who was fired from her law firm in 2023 for a letter defending Palestinian rights supporters from accusations of anti-Semitism, ousted a House member who had been in Congress for nearly 30 years.
Candidates backed by supporters of Palestinian rights also won key races in Pennsylvania and New Jersey."

She is "one of nine protesters convicted of terrorism-related charges after federal prosecutors accused them of being members of an 'antifa terror cell'."

Like a lot of other folks, I'll be trying to figure out how to move some #noblogs content somewhere else.
In all the frenzy, we've talked about how the left is being targeted. That's true, but it's also important to understand exactly how they got away with attacking A/I...
"What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, it energizes us to act, and raises at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."
