If the AfD win Saxony-Anhalt on Sunday, their first target will be journalists

When the radical-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) win their first state on Sunday (6 September), as now seems certain, their first enemy will be the journalists. And that's official.

🚨 Exclusive: The White House made a direct call to FIFA to ask Gianni Infantino to review Folarin Balogun’s red card. FIFA approached for comment and referred to the findings of its independent committee. FIFA sources insist White House influence could not affect the decision due to the powers contained in Article 27 and the independent nature of the disciplinary panel.
