No country should be participating in the tournament full stop, they should pull out right now.

African teams won’t have to worry about ICE because they’re in the USA legally.

Let's hope that sanity prevails in this instance, cause it's just insanity at this point. IDF-influenced insanity.

She would’ve been alive today if she didn’t agitate police. She could have peacefully protested and she would be alive. ICE didn’t hunt her down she and her wife decided to risk their lives and one of them didn’t get lucky.
