Digest more
Just six months away from the World Cup getting underway, Trump has not been afraid to throw a curveball by warning host cities such as Boston, Los Angeles and Seattle that he would call upon Infantino to make the tough decision if there are security problems. In October, when speaking about Boston's Democrat mayor, Michelle Wu, he said:
Mark Wolf resigned as a federal judge so he could say what he really thinks about a Supreme Court that he believes has sold its soul to Trump.
“If you have a ticket for the World Cup, you can have prioritized appointments to get your visa,” said FIFA President Gianni Infantino, who was in the Oval Office with Trump on Monday to explain the new system. Turning to the U.S. president, he added: “You said it the very first time we met, Mr. President, America welcomes the world.”
Boston federal judge Mark Wolf resigned from the bench in protest of President Donald Trump's disregard for the Constitution.
After a long career on the Federal District Court for Massachusetts, this judge resigned to protest "the White House's assault on the rule of law."
