Produced this video for @MorePerfectUS with @chaidingari about the astronomical ticket prices for the 2026 World Cup. We asked... why?? It's a perfect storm between FIFA's practices & the U.S. system. Watch below for an explainer, some fixes... and plenty of Scotland fans ⚽️
NEW: World Cup tickets cost up to $11.5 million — you could get into the last WC for $11. This time FIFA could rake in $13 billion using dynamic pricing, resales, and lax U.S. rules. We found FIFA President Gianni Infantino funneling that money into keeping himself in power.

Hecklers at Detroit rally yesterday accentuate awkward position of UAW/Shawn Fain. UAW endorsed Harris and Fain spoke at the rally yesterday without mentioning Gaza. But UAW signed onto letter to Biden last month calling on him to "shut off military aid to Israel"
