Welcome to tRump’s America—Uruguay World Cup National Team yanked off bus and harassed by ICE/police and sniffer dogs.
Absolute madness as the Uruguay national team gets pulled to the side of the road and treated like straight-up suspects.🤬
They literally just landed for the World C and security is already ripping their luggage open on the tarmac with sniffer dogs everywhere.

So the Trump administration’s two goals in peace talks with Iran are:
1. A commitment by Iran not to develop a nuke (This was part of the Obama deal that Trump canceled)
2. Opening the Strait of Hormuz. (Was open before war.)
