This isn’t a case where prosecutors charged the wrong guy, someone who didn’t do the crime. This is a case where no crime occurred, prosecutors know no crime happened, and they charged an innocent man anyway. This should have severe career consequences for all involved.

This is an excellent, necessary analysis. Well worth reading.

My MAGA NIMBY neighbors in rural Wisconsin would be so happy if this also disrupted planned transmission lines here, but ha ha joke’s on them, we’re getting the big new transmission towers.

The bottom line from the 2026 World Cup must be the destruction of FIFA and the creation of a new governing body. Under FIFA as currently organized, Infantino is inevitable. If not him, another with exactly his vices.
