++Sky News++ captured his words, as he explained: “”Yes, I asked for a review by FIFA. I spoke to a man [Infantino] who is highly respected. I’m the one who got them to do it, not Biden. Biden was asleep.”

    Well the ownership class of the US is a bunch of Karens. We know this.

    And we know FIFA is corrupt AF, even more than the NFL.

    What’s vulgar about it now is that it’s done without a lick of subtlety or tact. The corruption is out in the open. They’re doing the Qu’ils mangent de la brioche more plainly and more often than was ever done in France.

    ( Technical history fact: Marie Antoinette never said it, but the rumor was viciously spread and sped her way to the guillotine. The historic queen was classically trained and actually had tact. The French aristocracy, however, did not.)
