    President Trump earned more than $1 billion from crypto in 2025. How?
    Jul 1 2026
    According to recent financial disclosures, President Trump made more than $1 billion from his crypto ventures in 2025.

    That means President Trump earned more money in 2025 from crypto than he did from his real estate investments that took decades to build.

    How did he pull this off?

    Taking gambles on Primm, Nevada
    Jul 3 2026
    The town of Primm, Nevada was once a thriving tourist destination.

    Located on the Nevada-California border, the town has seen a sharp decline in tourism and has become like a ghost town, due in part to the proliferation of casinos across the country.

    Now, one family wants to revive Primm's glory days. But how?

  • FIFA's red card reversal: Fair play or political interference?

    FIFA's red card reversal: Fair play or political interference?
    Jul 6 2026
    FIFA's Disciplinary Committee suspended US striker Folarin Balogun's one-game red card ban in exchange for a probationary period of one year.

    The decision was announced after President Donald Trump called FIFA President Gianni Infantino and asked him to review the red card.

    The suspended red card means Balogun can play in Monday night's win-or-go-home match in Seattle versus Belgium.

    But the decision has faced harsh criticism from fans and The Union of European Football Associations, which said the red card suspension "crossed a red line."

    What does the red card debacle tell us about political interference in elite soccer?
