World Cup host city organizers acknowledge immigration crackdown may impact next year's tournament

NEW YORK — Philadelphia's host city executive for the 2026 World Cup says organizers accept that an immigration crackdown by President Donald Trump's administration may be among the outside events that impact next year's tournament. "There are certainly things that are happening at the national level, the international level, there are going to be geopolitical issues that we don't even know right now that are going affect the tournament next year, so we recognize that we're planning within uncertainty,' Meg Kane said Monday at a gathering of the 11 U.S. host city leaders, one year and two days ahead of the tournament opener. The World Cup will be played at 16 stadiums in the U.S., Mexico and Canada from June 11 to July 19 next year, a tournament expanded to 48 nations and 104 games. All matches from the quarterfinals on will be in the U.S., with the final at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. 'Whether it's the Olympics, whether it's a World Cup, whether it's a Super Bowl, you name it, anytime you've got a major international sporting event, geopolitics is going to have a role,' said Alex Vasry, CEO of the New York/New Jersey host committee. Kane said the host committees must adapt to decisions made by others. 'One of the things that I think we all recognize is that we have to be really good at operating within that uncertainty,' Kane said. 'I think for each of our cities, we want to be prepared to make any person that is coming and makes the decision to come to the United States or come to this World Cup feel that they are welcome. We do not play a role necessarily in what is happening in terms of the decisions that are made.' Trump's travel ban on citizens from 12 countries exempted athletes, coaches, staff and relatives while not mentioning fans. 'We allow for FIFA to continue having constructive conversations with the administrations around visas, around workforce, around tourism,' Kane said. FIFA is running the World Cup for the first time without a local organizing committee in the host nation. Asked in late April whether FIFA president Gianni Infantino was available to discuss the tournament, FIFA director of media relations Bryan Swanson forwarded the request to a member of the media relations staff, who did not make Infantino available. Legislation approved by the House of Representatives and awaiting action in the Senate would appropriate $625 million to the Federal Emergency Management Agency 'for security, planning, and other costs related to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.' The 11 U.S. host committees have been consulting with each other on issues such as transportation for teams and VIPs, and for arranging fan fests. At the last major soccer tournament in the U.S., the 2024 Copa America final at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, started 82 minutes late after fans breached security gates. 'Certainly we were not involved in the planning or the logistics for that particular match,' said Alina Hudak, CEO of the Miami World Cup host committee. She said local police 'have done an extensive review of the after-action reports related to that in collaboration with the stadium and so all of the things that happened are in fact being reviewed and addressed and I can assure you that everything is being done within our power to make sure that the appropriate measures are being placed, the appropriate perimeters.' soccer: /hub/soccer

'Ban all third world immigration': MAGA calls for blanket embargo on immigration amid LA riots

MAGA calls for a blanket ban on immigration from all third-world countries. MAGA activists pushed for a blanket ban on all immigration from third-world countries, as the crackdown on illegal aliens started the LA riots. The Donald Trump administration has taken a strong stand to deport illegals, and hundreds of Mexicans were detained and deported from Los Angeles in an ICE crackdown. Protests turned violent with people waving Mexican flags, torching and burning American flags. Chaos started brewing in the city Friday after ICE officers made several mass arrests of illegal immigrants, including one at a Home Depot parking lot where people looking for work often gather, and protestors showed up to try to block the raids. The FBI has put out rewards upwards of $50,000 for information leading to the arrest of various protestors who were caught on camera. Trump blamed Dem Governor Gavin Newsom for the LA riots and said the Trump administration cops will not allow "insurrectionists" to spit on the face of the National Guard troops. "IF THEY SPIT, WE WILL HIT and I promise you they will be hit harder than they have ever been hit before. Such disrespect will not be tolerated!" Trump reiterated Monday. MAGA activists claimed that multiculturalism in America proved to be a failure, and it's time the US shuts its door for migrants. "Ban all third world immigration. Legal or illegal. There should be a moratorium on all immigration from the third world. We've reached our capacity. We cannot be the world's soup kitchen anymore," Matt Walsh said. "It's time to ban third world immigration, legal or illegal. We've reached our limit and we have a huge cultural, educational, housing, financial, and essential services problem to fix now because of it. We need a net-zero immigration moratorium with a ban on all third worlders," Charlie Kirk wrote. These calls opened a major debate on how racist the proposition is. Some users suggested banning non-whites from coming to the US, while some said all non-Christians should be prohibited. Minnesota lawmaker says her family entered the US illegally The LA riots prompted many people to come forward with their immigration stories, claiming that there are millions in the US who came to the country illegally because their parents were not aware about the laws. Minnesota lawmaker Rep Kaohly Vang said in the House that she just learned that her family broke to law to come to the US.

Marines chopper spotted in Los Angeles? Video surfaces amid reports of fresh deployment

A video circulating on social media showed a helicopter, resembling the Marine chopper, flying over Los Angeles as citywide anti-ICE protests continued on Monday. However, neither President Donald Trump nor the White House have confirmed if the force was deployed. National Guard troops were deployed in LA over the weekend. This comes as CNN cited three sources to report that roughly 500 Marines based out of the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center in California have been mobilized to respond to the protests. The publication further added that the Marines will join the National Guard troops. ABC News cited an official to report a much higher number. The network reported that 700 marines have been ordered to assist in Los Angeles and they're expected to arrive over the next 24 hours. The media outlet said that the Marines are from the 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines at Twentynine Palms, California, who US Northern Command had said Sunday were on a 'prepared to deploy status'. President Donald Trump was meanwhile asked if he planned on sending Marines to LA. "We'll see what happens. I mean, I think we have it very well under control. I think it would have been a very bad situation. It was heading in the wrong direction. It's now heading in the right direction,' he said on Monday.
