Trump wades into World Cup politics, state weighs efficacy of firework ban
About this episode
The USMNT is out of the World Cup after their loss to Belgium, but it's the action off the field driving conversation. President Donald Trump made a personal call to FIFA president Gianni Infantino to review the red card against star US striker Folarin Balogun. Our panelists Taylor Morgan and Leah Murray join Lindsay to weigh whether this was an appropriate use of presidential power, and whether it does the game more harm or good in America. Plus, the 4th of July weekend has come and gone without another major wildfire. What does that mean for the state's expanded prohibition on personal fireworks, and could we see a ban for Pioneer Day?
