We’re gonna have to put an asteroid next to the winner of this year’s Little League World Series. Some of the top teams were denied visas to enter the U.S. Time for FIFA and the IOC to make a backup plan. The U.S. is no longer a viable host country.

Come on asteroid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #SweetSweetDeath
No😓
Was there a supposed reason, I couldn’t believe he did this
Did you mean asterisk?
I like asteroid better. 😂😂
More attention grabbing... yet
Not sure what you mean.
Asteroids demand more attention than stars.☄️✳️
🤬🤬🤬🤬
Trump will steal the trophy anyway.
I like that asteroid fits too, besides Asterix. Damn Bluesky, give us an edit option already!!! 😆
Not ever going to step foot into shit-hole Amerikkka while Tramp, the Mango Mussolini, is in power! It will take yrs for this nightmare to end & to convince other countries that Amerikkka is a safe place to visit. Elbows up, motherfuckers…FAFO!
...asteroid?
Gonna need a bigger book.
I can see Trump denying countries who say nasty things about him or don’t agree with his tariffs and foreign policies. Those teams would have to pay all their games in either Canada or Mexico. That makes seedings and scheduling unfair and a logistical nightmare.
Asterix 😁😉
ABSOLUTELY 💯 I have been saying the same thing!
Could we just put 🍊🪡🍆 and the whole Nazi GQP regime on the asteroid instead?
Now we're blowing up the winning team? Better call Superman.
Seriously, it's a valid point about the teams, FIFA, IOC. Just couldn't resist.
The moronic performative grandstanding with no actual overriding rationale to their enforcement has become the joke of the rest of the real world. They allow family members of drug cartels in quietly, no fanfare or explanation, but Little League? A bridge too far. Little gang members, likely.

Shameful that those kids won't get to play.
An asteroid feels a somewhat extreme.
Bit harsh.
Keep on putting the information out there, the press fails us and we need independent journalists who are not afraid to do their jobs!!
You mean this IOC? encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/a...
No, that one was 89 years ago. I suspect the current IOC does not want a repeat of this.
If you follow the timeline from 1931, when the games were awarded to the Weimar Republic, and 1936, you realise how organisations like IOC are captured and can readily compromise their values by a combination of realpolitik and the sunk costs fallacy.
No doubt. But in Sochi in 2014, Putin kept a reasonably low profile; it would seem apparent that Trump would try to turn 2028 into a Trump event. And if you buy the idea that Trump's behavior clearly patterns itself after Hitler, the "Maga Olympics" is a distinct possibility. We shall see.
Of course Trump may be dead or out of power by then, the way things are going right now...
Why would anyone want to travel to a fascist country where you could be detained and shipped to a third world country, because the pedoprez doesn’t like the color of your skin!
Asteroid?
Do not come to America. We are no longer a safe country for anybody.
Maybe Canada needs to host it for awhile?
"Asteroid" lol, great autocorrect. Or, a really scary statement 😟
I wish we could put an asteroid on this planet and start over again.
Never mind a backup plan. Just cancel it altogether and bring the games here to Canada where they are welcome.
asteroid ♥️
They should have been working on that since November!
That's one way to whittle down the competition. Not good sportsmanship, but here in the US, they don't seem to care about being good anymore, just "winners" whatever it takes.
That is such a crock of shit
Really, how many visas are you willing to bet get approved that are not from the Nordics?
…asterisk*…
But I kinda like “asteroid.”
🤣
Me, too 😂
Why is anyone coming to America now ?
Fuck infantino. I was 100% stoked about WC in the US. Lifelong fan. I want to see it moved out of this stasi infested country, and trump booed relentlessly forever.
Trump is after children's sports. He was not happy enough to keep them from learning how to read and write. Or the customs of the country from Sesame Street. Now, he has taken away their baseballs and their bats. Republicans? What are you going to do? Lock your kids in the closet?
Same is true for any major international event, including the upcoming World Cup. Let's give FIFA a nudge: chng.it/TYNFdBbY98
Seriously!? The trump regime is ruining everything!
I love when autocorrect fuqs up your skeet/tweet/post & the innernet police pile on in droves like they're doing something clever & extraordinary 🚨👨💻👩🏻💻👨🏻💻🚨
Asteroid? Auto-correct strikes again !
What was it supposed to say?
Asterisk
Where is the asteroid going to strike, though?
We definitely need an asteroid.
A Micro Meteor aimed at a particular orange target would be nice.
This asteroid made a comet career
Relocate the World Cup to Canada to protect the safety and rights of all competitors. Hosting the event there would ensure that athletes—regardless of race or background—are not exposed to the risk of arbitrary arrest or imprisonment without due process.
Then deny US competitors!
Well Canada and Mexico. The new North American alliance.
Children beware! Stay away from the US!
I’m sure an asteroid will put a damper on next year’s chances.🙄
LOL...
FIFA is a useless organization - they will do nothing. The IOC isn't much better.
This is so sad for those kids. And very unfair. The US is no longer welcoming or safe
*
In July 2025, FIFA leased offices at Trump Tower for the FIFA Club World Cup.
Saudis funded it. They won't move it. They love trump.
The US is facing serious degradation of our democracy and the harm to outsiders has never been this lethal before. Over a small group of racist, sexist, raping, oligarchy ignorant men grabbing all the money they can, and doing the most harm to others as they can.
Well Hitler had the Olympics so it tracks that Trump will have it.
Sick as that is. Yea
Asterisk...
Don’t go!💪🇨🇦
To deny CHILDREN the opportunity to play a game because of racial hatred is pure weakness.
Other countries should boycott FIFA in US next year.
I assume you meant asterisk, but personally I’m ready for the asteroid.
Only if we can aim it
Maybe we democrats can, by using the WEATHER!
*
Olympics is next.
you're absolutely right. money will keep those events here.
They’re banning Little League children. Just when ya think they couldn’t get any scummier.
Just want to say AUTOCORRECT is a bitch and now all these people are giving you a hard time. Been there. 😉
Come to Canada
Honestly, decent people would rather lost their passports and request asylum in Canada than live in Amerikkka. It’s a sh1tehole country.
FIFA needs to move the games as does the IOC.
FIFA and the IOC are too corrupt. It will need athletes themselves refusing to travel here.
Also an asterisk
Asteroid ☄️ was an awesomely hilarious auto “correct” 🤦🏼♀️ though.
I like asteroid ☄️ Any US team should be blasted off on a Muskie Mission to Mars. It would be more honorable for US athletes to start boycotting or only agreeing to compete in overseas competitions.
You’re an albacore around my neck.
I think I like ‘asteroid’ better than ‘asterisk’. A little star of doom hovering over the meaning of a word. Will it miss? Will it hit? A semantic sword of Damocles dangling from a cosmic hair over the truth value of a statement. Will it, won’t it fall? Only time will tell.
FIFA. IOC. Have had 6 Full months to formulate a plan to avoid trumpieland. How many more international amateur sports groups are to be denied entry. 🇮🇪🇪🇺
I agree! And with the US Olympic Committee banning trans athletes, I wonder if our athletes ever thought to boycott! I wouldn’t suggest that for american teams in the LLWS; children shouldn’t be punished for adult idiocy. LLWS without the Venezuelan team is a joke!
The US finally wins a World Cup but only because all the other teams were sent to death camps
Everything should move to Canada
We dont want people who let that happen to their country, its no excuse
It is, however, one way for the USA to maintain their leadership in the sports world.
Wow!!! That is so wrong.
I have been saying this, too. BTW, if I should disappear, look for me in a “prison” in some undeveloped country. Be quick. I probably won’t live long.
FIFA and IOC won't change venues bc corruption.
Wait for next year. FIFA & the IOC need to see the problem. The World Cup could be held only in Mexico & Canada w/out too much trouble. Unfortunately the Olympics is going to be an issue. I feel bad for the people of LA who have been working hard on preparing. How will people want to come here?
It's not really a World Series anymore. I agree that the IOC and FIFA need to move away from the US for the remainder of Trump's term. The Border Patrol and ICE are lawless entities now. Not safe for athletes and fans alike ATM.
Morning Hank! ☕️ It is not safe for literally anyone to come here right now who doesn’t have the whitest of skin. They are currently building a stadium for FIFA by the MIA airport and their headquarters are now in my town. I don’t see how this will play out under the current 🍊 regime!
No one will come. 😡🐈⬛
Morning Christine! ☕💙 Canadians are staying away from the US in droves. Flight cancellations and far less vehicle crossings. 🇨🇦 Organizations are not booking into meetings or conferences in the US nearly as much. Staff don't want to take the chance.
As it should be! Wondering still after six brutal months when people will wake up and act here in US. The lack of tourism $$$ and empty shelves still hasn’t alarmed enough yet. Everyday I shake my head and cry reading the news.
You are seeing empty store shelves in Florida now? 😲 Not seeing that here 🇨🇦, except at the liquor stores when all American liquor, wine, and beer was pulled from the shelves and sent back to the US. Eggs are still $2.70 USD a dozen here.
Beef and coffee are way up. Gas was never below $2 like the felon claimed. Shelves aren’t as stocked as they used to be but not at the point of inconvenience yet.
Good afternoon Linda! It will take a while for suppliers to use up inventory and recalibrate prices with the tariffs. I'm thinking the impact will become more noticeable throughout the fall.
Hoping so. We need to feel the pain unfortunately.
Yeah, I've noticed that many Americans are experiential learners. 😜
When visiting daughter. Drive from Miami to TN.
I was planning for my first personal vacation. I've traveled a fair bit for business but never taken a vacation abroad before. The Florida Keys was at the top of my list but I may have to rethink this in favour of a non-US destination. Sad state of affairs 😥.
Do NOT come here.
If I go to the Florida Keys... I'm whiter than a GoT White Walker ✅ Burner phone with nothing but my LinkedIn profile. ✅ Twitter account with nothing but my posts of kittens. ✅ Do I get past? 😂
😅😂
I'll probably have to send you a postcard from El Salvador or the Florida Everglades. 😂
Good morning Hank! 🌞☕️😆 Bite your tongue!
Good morning, Christine! ,☕💙 Would you bring me a taco with a file in it and a can of alligator repellent? 😂😂😂
Very sad! The new American motto is getting louder and headed towards “Can’t wait to get out of here!”
The shelves aren't empty yet. I think that will be thr turning point.
Hell, even if you're the whitest of white you aren't safe. Ask a Canadian fisherman fishing in his own country.
I guess I missed the page in the “America First” doctrine that says denying visitors (who spend money here) entrance to this country is doing anything good for America. Just an FYI for magats-when our economy crashes we will be last, not first.
Let’s compromise: we can place an asterisk the size of an asteroid next to the winner’s name
Agree
Exactly right. I like the use of the asteroid and may steal it occasionally.
I will not watch either if they are held in America. All of us should boycott watching if they don’t move it to a safe country for the athletes and their families:
I couldn’t believe when Trump walked in there and stole that trophy. I was literally dumbstruck.
Initially surprised, but when you think about it, nothing he does surprises me anymore.
The world is hoping for it to miss the winner but maybe not the host of the celebration visit.
"Asterisk", but I digress...Yes, time for FIFA's leader to stop the butt kissing and make a decision to protect the players...
Accurate
...asterisk...
Look out Williamsport!
Agreed -- both the World Cup and the Olympics should be moved to other countries -- the participants would not be safe here!!
Already happening in Canada and Mexico as well. Move the games US has
The US is no longer a lot of things thanks to Republicans!
😅 I'm sure your "word-fixer" preferred "asteroid" to "asterisk". I get caught all the time.
And the Olympics…?
At work we are preparing for the World Cup. I keep thinking…is this really happening? Then, I think is anyone else thinking like me?
The dreams and hopes for kids have been extinguished by the Orange Frump monster. Even with visas the players and coaches would have been subject to ICE And not to mention the spectators who attended would have been the target of detention.
Asteroid…hahaha
No one should be visiting the US now. And Taco you’ve even hurt Little League- you must live to hurt children.
I hope you meant asterisk *
Very true. All international competitions should avoid the US. Besides, Trump will steal the trophy.
Innocent children. That’s our legacy.
Olympics?
I'm a Brit and there's no way I'll be going to the US - AT ALL - with this administration in power.
And Felon47 better give back Chelsea the FIFA gold medal he stole from the team.
An asteroid, you say.
🎯🎯🎯💔😪😪😪😪
It’s a shame that America has gotten to this point when we have a deranged leader in charge.
The same deranged lunatic and sociopath, AGAIN.🤡💩☠️
That sounds dangerous.
Doesn’t matter who wins, Trump gets to keep the trophy people.com/trump-pocket...
Noem probably frothing at the mouth in anticipation.
Yeah, you can forget about FIFA World Cup www.msn.com/en-us/sports...
What say you MLB? A whole lot of teams are fielding Venezuelans, Cubans, Australians, Japanese, Mexicans, Canadians and others. What does watching baseball under fascism look like? We're getting there and watch for the brownshirts patrolling the stands.
I would plan any type of event whatsoever in the US , hell I don't even want to ever step foot in that abyss.
FIFA's on the take, and IOC aren't paragons of truth either. I guarantee some athletes are going to be detained for one reason or another, but once you land in a fascist country, it's a little too late. Just realizing, "Shit, I made a mistake coming here", is not going help you.
*asterisk?? ✳️
What next? They bring back bullfights? Force brown immigrants into the arena to fight? That might wake Vegas up. You're right, FIFA should have had a backup plan made last November 5th.
Fact
