On December 5th of this year, another farce will be played out at the #WorldCup2026 draw in Washington DC.
Background:
- #FIFA has been facing criticism over holding the World Cup in the USA because Trump's Gestapo/ICE troops are terrorizing any non-white individuals. How many fans will be comfortable traveling to that environment?
- Trump has been threatening to move World Cup matches from any city that doesn't bend the knee to him. FIFA is politely telling the White House that matches can't be moved at this point, and please stop the rhetoric because it only makes teams and fans nervous.
- Yesterday, FIFA announced a new "Peace Prize" that will be awarded on December 5th.
The FIFA Peace Prize is, IMO, a bribe or suck-up strategy to influence Trump, who is obviously still hurt over his missed Nobel Peace Prize. Once it's awarded to Trump - very, very likely - it further cements FIFA's reputation as a trash organization.

Der sog. "#FifaFriedenspreis" macht auch für Schwerfällig sichtbar:
Einen eitlen, selbstgefälligen Darth #Trump, der sich auf den Arm nehmen lässt
und eine #FIFA mit dem völlig abgehobenen

„Speichelleckerei“, „erniedrigendes Verhalten“: Scharfe Kritik an Fifa-Friedenspreis für Donald Trump
Viele tippten schon vor der Bekanntgabe auf diesen Preisträger: Der US-Präsident bekommt einen Friedenspreis der Fifa überreicht. Fifa-Präsident Infantino zieht dafür Kritik auf sich.

What I imagine the FIFA World Cup will look like after learning about Infantino awarding the ‘First Inaugural FIFA Peace Prize’ to Trump. #FIFA #fifaWorldCup #fifaWorldCup2026

Agreed, random BBC up/downers. Agreed.

War dieser #FIFA-Preis eigentlich ein Noball-Preis?

"CSKA, its owner, managing director, and even the banks it dealt with were all explicitly named in #sanctions lists.
West Ham defended itself by citing “force majeure”. The club argued that it was impossible to make the payments without violating British law.
But #FIFA insisted: a…

Group B
Canada
Winner of UEFA Playoff A (Italy, Northern Ireland, Wales, Bosnia and Herzegovina)
Qatar
Switzerland
UNBELIVEABLE
#FIFA #worldCup

The so-called “#FIFA Peace Prize” makes it clear even to the slow-witted:
A vain, smug Darth #Trump who lets himself be made a fool of,
and a #FIFA with the completely out-of-moral

Gut, dass ich kein Fußballfan bin und schon gar keiner der #FIFA.
Mein Eindruck: Das ist eine kriminielle Organisation, die Sport korrumpiert und skrupellose Idioten zu sehr reichen Menschen macht.

Just a reminder about tomorrow's #FIFA circus where it's expected Trump will receive a Peace Prize. Maybe he'll celebrate by blowing up another fishing boat.

Good Morning #Canada
The #FIFA World Cup Final Draw is today, hosted by renowned soccer experts Heidi Klum and Kevin Hart. The Village People will be performing live so I expect we'll see some Orango Mango Tango from the U.S. president in addition to a comedic break when the FIFA Peace Prize is awarded. Canadians will be watching because #Soccer is the most popular organized sport for ages 5 to 17 in Canada. Soccer and swimming have both surpassed Hockey in youth participation for many reasons but equipment and facilities cost is a major factor and it's estimated that there are over 1M children in soccer leagues across the country. Approximately 74% of Canadians consider themselves avid sorts fans and hockey remains #1 in views with 58% following. NFL came in next at 37%, followed by MLB 34%, CFL 32%, and NBA 29%. Formula One at 24% was sixth overall, followed by Tennis 20%, with PGA Tour and Major League Soccer tied for eighth.
