Fair question.
Mike Rothschild @rothschildmd The US is scheduled to co-host the World Cup in 2026 and the Olympics in 2028. Why would thousands of international athletes and millions of fans from around the world come to a country where tourists, asylum seekers, and visa holders are being disappeared to foreign prisons?

Remember when we had news? Not just a constant litany of reporting POTUS drivel, missteps, lies, hate and the unraveling of democracy, our economy & important allyships.
