After the game last night, asked Pascal Jansen about winning goalscorer Hannes Wolf, who was out of the starting XI initially + hadn’t scored in 19 appearances. (This will also be your Jansen postgame quotes thread, 1/5🧵)

There is no way to understate what is happening in America – a sinister alliance between a demagogue, the world’s richest man, and right-wing activists is remaking the federal government.
It Keeps Getting Worse—and No One Is Safe
Donald Trump and Elon Musk aren’t just inflicting pain on poor people abroad or imagined “enemies within.” Their parade of cruelty is coming for MAGA country, too.

BREAKING: President Trump signed an executive order sanctioning the International Criminal Court.

This is an attack on accountability and free speech, exposing people in the U.S. to punishments for helping ICC investigations on atrocities committed anywhere, including genocide and war crimes.

Republicans handed Musk’s team access to Medicare & Social Security data. It's not about fraud—they want to gut benefits to fund billionaire tax cuts.

I won’t stand by while they loot the country. I’m fighting to revoke Musk’s access, stop this coup, and hold everyone responsible accountable.

The House Republicans listed below are vulnerable in 2026. They will only vote to cut our benefits if they think no one is watching.

If you live in these districts, or know anyone who does, CALL NOW and tell them to keep their hands off Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid!
